The home was exactly as pictured. We had everything we needed. Location was easy to find and convenient. The kitchen is well stocked and they leave a nice little bag with toiletries for use. The home was clean and beds comfortable. We are slept well. Communication with host was good. All in all a nice stay, we would stay again.

Overall the home is beautiful. Nice, open floor plan. Good quiet neighborhood. Lots of parking space.
Negatives for us, the beds were not comfortable at all. VERY firm. Felt like sleeping on concrete with a thin layer of cushion. Ended up having to sleep on the couch and air mattress because the beds were so uncomfortable. Our allergies were acting up bad as well when in the home, not sure what it was but did notice the air intake cover in the hall was very dirty and didn't see a filter in it at all. (we are not allergic to pets so I know it wasn't pet dander) The house did appear to be very clean however when packing to leave and checking to make sure we didn't miss anything we found a pair of dirty underwear that was not ours on the floor behind a chair in the master bedroom and a shirt wadded up in the closet of one of the other bedrooms. I'm sure it was just a minor oversight by the cleaning crew as the rest of the house was very clean but it was a little disturbing.
Overall the house was beautiful but due to the beds being so uncomfortable and the allergens in the house we unfortunately will likely not return. Some people may find the very firm beds to be to their liking but it's just not for us. We travel a lot and these were by far the most uncomfortable stiff beds we have ever slept in. I would recommend this house if you don't mind FIRM beds and don't have any allergies because it truly was a gorgeous home it just wasn't a good fit for us.

My wife and I, along with oldest daughter and her fiancé came to Waxahachie for a wedding. Your home was a perfect solution for our needs. It’s well supplied, clean and furnished for our long weekend. Centrally located, it gave us easy access to all our destinations. The neighborhood very pleasant and was extremely quiet. Thank you for sharing your home and I would hesitate to recommend it to anyone visiting the area.
