    Family vacation - this condo was the perfect size for our family of four. The location was great, we were in town to visit Schlitterbahn water park. While it is within walking distance, we chose to drive the parks. Great communication with property manager, no issues with check in/out or the property at all. Would stay again

    Overall, this is a nice property with access to the river and a nice pool. Unfortunately, the king bed was not cleaned. It was made up, but the sheets and pillowcases were obviously dirty. This was very disappointing as I did not realize this until it was past bedtime for my small children that were sleeping with me in the bed. The owner was kind and quick to respond, but there was not an immediate solution as there were no other clean king size sheets available. I fully understand this is the cleaner's misdoing and not the owner's fault, but like I said, it was disappointing to have to deal with that. When you are paying so much to stay here, you at least expect a clean bed.

    We loved our stay here. The property was quite possibly the cleanest vrbo that we have ever stayed at. Our favorite thing to do here at the end of the day was to plunk our chairs in the river and watch our boys enjoy the water. I will rent from these owners again at any of their locations!

    We have a family of 6 (4 kids under the ages of 7) and we had a great time. The communication was clear, excellent, and very helpful. The apartment was clean and in a GREAT location with river access, and a pool with 2 hot tubs. Schlitterbahn was almost walking distance as was the center of town. Highly recommend this location especially for families!

    Our stay was great. Beds were very comfortable and the facility was clean and quiet. The temperature was at 86 degrees when we arrived. HOT!! The neighborhood seemed a bit sketchy though. Also, I’m not quite sure what the role of the security guards was. We saw them sitting in their car 90% of the time rather than walking the property.

    Property was spotlessly clean. The large private park was a big plus. There's also a large 2nd floor patio with trees providing lots of shade. Really pretty view.

    Stayed here Labor Day weekend! The home itself was up to date, was able to stay cool the entire trip and had all the amenities we needed! Plenty of towels, had beach towels as well, electric grill, floats and great access to the river! Would definitely stay here again and would recommend to other people!
