    Overall my stay was excellent. There were a couple of things I’d suggest for future - the ice maker didn’t work and the shower was a little mildewed (I know how it is in the south!). These weren’t anything to complain about and I plan to use if available for future trips. Just thought I’d mention it in case they can be taken care of. I will be recommending to my sister and my brother-in-law for when they visit their son in Denton. Was a very restful place to stay and the owners were great!

    I needed a place to stay between two events and this was a perfect retreat! It was quiet and I got to work on a project in peace. I could have walked to several places for groceries or food. It also worked great for when my son joined me the second night- be aware that the bathroom is in the bedroom if that is an issue for you. Thanks again for my quiet getaway!

    Perfect for 1 or 2 couples needing to stay close to the University or access some of the Denton area attractions and events. The neighborhood is nice and quiet and the Hosts are polite and friendly. Highly recommend!

    The property was perfect for our 2-night stay. The bathroom connected to the bedroom worked just fine for our group. The pull-out couch could sleep two people, but we also brought an air mattress for additional sleeping space, which worked great! The place was beautifully decorated and thoughtfully stocked with games, complimentary snacks, and a record player—a unique and fun touch.We gave cleanliness 4 stars due to the sink draining slowly during extended use, such as face washing, and the shower grout needing a deeper scrubbing. However, the rest of the space was spotless, with no dust in sight. The hosts were welcoming and accommodating. We would happily stay here again if in the area!

    We had a wonderful stay! The area was nice and super convenient, making it easy to explore and get around. The rental comfortably slept three of us, thanks to the pull-out couch bed, which was a great feature. The only reason I didn’t give cleanliness a full five stars is due to some dust on the ceiling fan and blinds, but otherwise, everything was in great shape. One standout was the thoughtful welcome packet with food recommendations—we tried a few spots, and they were fantastic! Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

    I read a review from other guests and I agree with them about how comfortable the little house is. It did not work for us. Unfortunately, the location of the bathroom inside the only bedroom doesn’t work for more than a couple. People sleeping in the bedroom were disturbed by the other using the bathroom. The queen bed did not work for us, noisy cracking frame. The other sleeping areas were the sleep sofa and that one had better days. Our backs, my daughter and me, suffered the consequences. Other than watching tv there is nothing else to do in the house. Guests are not allow to enjoy the backyard and the information of the house showing up hot tub misled my booking. I asked questions too late. Overall, this place is good for a couple that uses a queen bed and has a busy itinerary to spend the day out of the house and only go to sleep. Bring your own pillow and consider bringing your own air mattress if this place is your choice.

    A lovely apartment in a tree-abundant neighborhood. Our stay was clean and quiet with ample space and kitchen amenities. The host was prompt in returning messages.
