The only two downsides was the pool was dirty (hello Texas and trees, it’s unavoidable) and the trashcans outside were full upon arrival (another unavoidable if it wasn’t trash pickup day yet). Otherwise, perfect stay! My kids LOVED the secret room and we had family movie night out there. Thank you for allowing us to have a family weekend in your property! ##### Ashley E.

Unfortunately, they didn’t have much time there to hang out and enjoy the basketball court and pool. By the way, the young men had played basketball together in college. The host was so sweet and easy to get in touch with. I enjoyed chatting with her. Their hospitality is genuine! They left my son and his friends some sweets and a congratulatory bottle of spirits.
