This place was a great location and perfect for our needs. Owners were so helpful with anything we asked for. Would stay here again if f ever back in Lubbock. We had 10 adults and two babies. ##### Ginger T.

Check-in was weird but believe it to have been a VRBO issue, not a host issue. Came to the area for a funeral, was able to accommodate a large gathering. Everyone was comfortable and no one was climbing over on another due to the incredible amount of space. Will definitely try and stay again in the future. ##### Tammara S. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charles 20 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities The property filled our needs well. There seemed to have been a breakdown in communication between the leasing agent and the owner as the owner did NOT have our time blocked and was in the middle of replacing a leaking hot water heater when we arrived. He got it done quickly because he used to be a plumbing contractor; however, he was somewhat put out with the leasing agency/agent for not letting him know that there were guests arriving. All in all, we had a good time and would certainly rent the same place again. ##### Charles Stayed 6 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Autumn H. 16 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The perfect place! I could not say enough great things about this place!! The owner definitely puts a lot of time and love into this place. Us and our extended family stayed here for my son's TTU graduation. We had 12 people and this place was the perfect size. The teenagers loved the basement w/ pool and foozeball! Such a great place for them to have "their own space." Everything was clean and comfortable. Easy check in / out. Owner was easy to get in touch with. They were so nice to have the kitchen area decorated for us to have a TTU celebration! He loves this place so much and does an impeccable job with every detail. Kitchen was well stocked and plenty of linens for everyone. The completely fenced in HUGE back yard was great for the dog to run around without fear of running off. If you need a place to stay in this area - THIS IS IT!!! We are so thankful that they share this place with others... such a beautiful place. ##### Autumn H.
