Trees, trees, trees! This property offers comfort indoors and out. With the tall pines and oaks plus the natural perimeter, this comfortable little house in the woods provides our guests with a secluded yard and a covered patio/car port. It truly is a quiet haven in the woods. Woodside Guesthouse’s spacious design features ample living space and a generous master with ensuite bath. For those working remotely, the floor plan offers a desk in the bedroom plus counter top seating and a full size kitchen table. Living space is both cozy and spacious with matching leather couch and love seat, both of which feature electric recliners. The master features a queen-size bed plus a generously-sized walk-in closet. The kitchen has terrific storage…all you need are groceries. Washer and dryer are provided inside unit. NOTE: Photos show the rental’s decor in progress. Mirrors, rugs and more will be in place by your arrival to make this house a real home away from home. Owners Frank and Becky Thompson are experienced hosts with other rentals in the area and take great pride in their excellent ratings. While this home is brand new on VRBO, they are certain it will be a top rental in the area very soon as future reviews will tell. PARTIAL HANDICAP ACCESSIBILITY: All doors are 36 inches wide, and there are no steps on this property. Only the combination tub/shower are not handicap accessible. PETS CONSIDERED: Owners request a full description of pets before they accept a booking. This was first-designed to serve as a large "granny flat," so there is another unit on the property, the main house. The two units have completely separate entries and yards and also have individually designated parking. They both boast Woodside charm, privacy and comfort. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Electric car charging station on site - Parking on site ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Towels provided ### Outdoor areas - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats and dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Area rugs in public areas - Smoke-free property ### Things to do - Bicycle parking - Bicycle storage ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Bicycle parking - Bicycle storage - Electric car charging station - Garden - Unit size: 1,000 square feet ## Similar properties ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/58000000/57230000/57221900/57221871/637ced34.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Great for Business Travelers!

Becky was extremely responsive and helpful. I would definitely recommend this property! ##### Colette R. Stayed 33 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gary G. 21 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful - could not be better. The property is a little away from Tomball which makes it amongst trees. The owner has set up for taking in dogs. He has built an amazing dog run which gives the dog freedom to run outside. The cottage is very nice to stay in that it is clean, gives you everything you want including washer and dryer. Supply's for everything you would need are available from day one which gives you a good start.Becky met us at door, explained all the basics and gave us her contact number. No need to call in 2 months of staying there in comfort and seclusion although town is just a few miles away. ##### Gary G. Stayed 61 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nancy M., Sun City .AZ 13 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Just like home - even better Becky is the best possible host. Checked in occasionally. The unit is immaculate, well stocked, and could not ask for more serene setting. My doggies loved the fenced grassy yard. Quiet streets so able to take them on long walks. We loved the decor too.Convenient to restaurants and groceries. Would rate it a 10 if we could! ##### Nancy M.
