I am not about leaving negative comments but I would like to add a few comments that would really elevate this property. Trees or shrubs so when you are sitting on the front porch you do not have to see the houses on the next street, put the van and boat in another storage so people renting can utilize the cover parking and lastly paint the trailer when you come on the the property. Other than that this is a great property. They home is decorated very tasteful! We loved the 3 outdoor areas! ##### Cindy P. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ghislaine T., Houston 5 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful property Beautiful home on a great lot. Great decks and pool. Traffic was a little noisy when we were outside. Plenty of space and renovated nicely. A few comments that may help: I would consider having non breakable dishes as it would be best when entertaining outside. The shower on the southwest side of the house was lukewarm but never hot. There were several small roaches that were roaming around the kitchen, so an exterminator would remedy this issue. If you rent the home, think about bringing ziplock bags and foil paper and charcoal for the grill. The home is located very close to the boat ramp #6 and only 10 minutes to Comal Park. We were also entertained by a deer family, and the children were delighted. Overall it was a great experience. ##### Ghislaine T. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 16 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Misleading outside pictures The house itself was great, very cozy and it was great to have bathrooms for each bedroom. The reason i'm giving this 2 stars is because the outside pictures are misleading. We were looking for a place where we could spend most of our time outside. First the deck and pool area is facing a busy street. You can't tell by the pictures but there is a street at the top of the backyard picture. This lead to no privacy and lots of traffic noise. Maybe it's the time of year we booked the property, because none of the other reviews said anything about this. Your view from the pool was either the street or a hugh metal rusty shipping container. The "multiple outdoor storage buildings" that the listing mentions are mostly dilapidated eye sores. None of the pictures show theses outside buildings for you to make an informed decision about this property. The one thing that took it over the top was the broken washing machine just sitting out in the middle of the side yard. If I had seen realistic pictures of the yard areas I would not have rented this property, especially at this price point and most definitely because of the busy street. It baffels us as to why none of the other reviews mention this. I've stayed in many VRBO's throughout the years and this is the first negative review that I have written. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mario C. 15 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Real nice clean quiet we enjoyed the stay Very clean quiet , enjoyed the stay ##### Mario C.

Loved the security of the place & loved the pool. Giving a 3 Star because the home needs pest control. There is some kind of infestation of little black bugs, not sure if it was baby roaches.. mainly in the master bath area. Also, had small roaches through out the house.. loved the place but hard to look past that issue as I hate bugs! Would be a perfect place if they got that under control, which should be an easy fix. Suggestion would be to have regular monthly pest control to avoid guests running into things like that. ##### Aracely M.

Our 2.5-year-old loved the pool and playground, while our 95-year-old Papa could live on the patio glider chair. It was an incredibly special stay! ##### Alison T. ### 8/10 Good #### Shane W. 20 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great yard The property if completely fenced and secure so that there was no concern that our dogs could get out. The pool is small, but exactly as shown in picture. We were there to attend the Final Four in San Antonio. It was an easy drive to the games. Great brisket at "Nick's Not Normal", and the Italian restaurant nearby was very good. Tv's were nice. Kitchen well stocked but could use a few more plates. All appliances were in good working order. ##### Shane W.

I would definitely rent this property again. Needs little maintenance on house( 2 door knobs fell off during stay). Besides that it was perfect ##### John T.

The property was big and perfect for the dogs to roam supervised. The house was nice and was as described. The property management company was very nice and helpful with the questions we had. The entrance is a little hidden so finding it at first was a bit difficult since it is off the main 2-way road in the neighborhood. Nice option for the price, would consider staying here again if the need arose. ##### Brittny A.

We really enjoyed the decks - it would be nice to be able to turn off the motion detectors in the evening when sitting out. Very comfortable stay. We did have an issue with one of the beds, but it was addressed promptly. Suggestions: mixing bowls in the kitchen that could be used in the microwave, too; longer shower curtains in the 2 bedrooms to keep the bathroom floor from getting wet; instructions for using TVs. All in all we would recommend the property and come again! ##### Susan O.

Large kitchen, every bedroom has its own private bathroom. The house is very clean- a super plus. Very nice outdoor space. We didn't have little children but there is a nice play area for them. The pool is not crazy big but it worked for us. Plenty of space for us to cool off and relax. Large deck in the front and back of the house. Plenty of parking. We had a pickup and two cars. During the day there is plenty of sunlight in the house, which is nice, but at night, the sliding glass doors do not have blinds or curtains to give privacy when its dark outside. The master suite would get quite warm during the day while the rest of the house stay very comfortable. But yes it would cool off when it was time for bed. These would be my biggest gripes. I would absolutely recommend this house and would stay again. ##### Naomi L. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Brenda C. 31 Aug 2025 ##### Brenda C.
