Escape by the lake

Everything about this stay was great! we showed up at night so it was a little harder to tell which house to go to but getting in was a breeze as well as check in since we set all up in advance. The only surprise was the stairs leading to kitchen and living room. We booked thinking it was one level. But the house is beautiful, the balcony and the furniture was great and very relaxing. Could even see the lake while sitting enjoying a coffee. Our host answered promptly and was very helpful and accomodating!

We had a very nice stay. The house was roomy & had everything we needed in the kitchen & bathrooms. Although, the Keurig pod was not working.

We had no place to hang our clothes because all closets were filled with the owners belongings. Toiletries for guests, hooks for hanging and available closet space would be very helpful for guests.We have 2 short term rentals ourselves and realize the challenges of opening your home to strangers, but we try to put ourselves in their place and provide them with a pleasant experience in hopes they will return or tell their friends about our places.

Great space, comfy beds and great hosts.

Picture of the front of the residence would be helpful for location purposes. Also knowing the kitchen was upstairs would have been useful information. Overall the place was peaceful and beautiful. The owners are very communicative and the home is a great little getaway.

Great location and amenities. Friendly and responsive host.

This stay was very comfortable while we were in town for the weekend, and it fit 5 of us adults VERY comfortably. It was spacious, relaxing, and a soft place to land after some long days. The kitchen was awesome, the beds were large and comfortable, having 3 full bathrooms was great, and overall an interesting layout concept with the kitchen being upstairs. We couldn't figure out how to turn on the light switch for the stairs but it was not a big deal at all, so we didn't reach out. Would stay again!

Outside of property looks a bit rough. House number not prominent enough to help with finding location. Inside was nice and clean and very comfortable. The beds were very comfortable. There was something sticky all over kitchen counter and my socks were finding sticky spots around kitchen floor. The outdoor patio furniture on covered patio was very dirty so we did not sit out there. My little dog did enjoy the fenced on yard and seeing the squirrels. I did have trouble finding the location. I tried to call host, left message and never received a call back...ever. The driving directions on the site are confusing and need to be changed. It was 86 degrees inside the house when i first arrived and took forever to reach a reasonable temperature. I think by not receiving a call back from the host made me feel i could not stay here again. It was apparent she did not care.

The house was clean and perfect for our needs. Great stay!

April sound is a beautiful area around the lake. The house was very nice. Everyone had a great time and I would definitely recommend this property.

Comfy beds!

What a great property! Super clean, the kitchen had everything we needed. The host was wonderful and very communicative.

Great for our family!

Very clean interior! Comfortable beds! Exterior was not exactly as expected but the interior was just as described. We brought our pets & the fenced side yard was nice to have but the grass was extremely tall making it difficult for the pups to “navigate” during their potty breaks. Host was extremely accommodating & easy to get ahold of. Overall a great stay!

This review comes down to health and safety. Under sink areas of the bathrooms and kitchen were filthy. Bath towels stacked on top of cleaning sponge, coffee filters randomly stored under bathroom sink with cleaners and random items. The cabinet below the kitchen sink had dirty dish towels matted down next to all the other items. I would not have used these to clean dishes or dry my hands. The oven-mitts were dirty. The pizza cutter and a few pieces of silverware had dried food on them. Kitchen ants came back. Two of the shower curtain liners had mold on them. Several Black Moldy register vents throughout the house. Musty smell on the main floor - likely from the vents and moisture from humidity. There needs to be a very good dehumidifier in this house! The stairway light did not work. Very Tall grass - the outdoor spaces were unusable for yard games. Moldy & dirty cushions on deck area - made this an unusable sitting space.The mold & dirty spaces that hold the towels, washcloths & dish towels that we use on our bodies and dishes were unacceptable as is the lack of lighting on the stairs.This house in this condition should be removed from the Vrbo listing until the ducting is cleaned, vents are replaced and a deep clean is done. Mold is nothing to mess around with. Cleaning up and cleaning out would be beneficial to potential future renters and would improve their stay.

Lovely home.

Host was wonderful and accommodated our last minute request to check in a day earlier. We loved the property and thoroughly enjoyed the deck and view of lake Conroe. Very peaceful and secure community. Highly recommend! We will be back

Excellent location and amenities. Fantastic communication with host and very smooth check in and check out!

We stayed at this property for a wedding in Conroe..

Very comfortable townhome/condo. All the beds are downstairs, and there is a great open area upstairs. The mattresses were so comfortable; all five of us slept great. It is in a gated community. We did have a hang-up with security; we had to show proof of our rental agreement the second night. But that is not the owners' fault.

It was a wonderful weekend getaway, offering the perfect space to disconnect from the daily routine. The property was exactly as described, the check-in process was seamless, and the property manager was always prompt and attentive.Overall, it was a fantastic stay, and I would certainly recommend it to others.

My mother-in-law was happy, my wife was happy,our children were happy and that means everything to me

The area is lovely. Good security. Property was clean and comfortable.

We enjoyed our stay. The place was clean and comfortable. Friendly host. It was nice being so close to the lake. Keyless entry made check in easy. We would definitely stay here again!

The accommodations were as listed. Nice and cozy as the weather was damp and chilly during our visit. The small fenced yard was an added plus for our two pups. The Master Bed is very comfortable. We didn't use the other rooms or beds but there is plenty of sleeping areas and 3 bathrooms for larger groups.

My family spent Christmas at the Escape by the Lake! We absolutely enjoyed our stay. House is well kept, host was quick to reply with any questions! I loved that I was able to bring my puppy! Will definitely rent again when we come visit our Conroe family.

Property was clean with all accessories needed. It was in a secure location and the lake scenery was amazing. The people on the property were friendly and gave us useful information. Love the time spent in the inviting home and property.

Evette’s townhouse is lovely and very tastefully decorated. Beautiful view from the upstairs covered patio. Beds were very comfortable. Owner was quick to respond to every question and resolved any issue immediately. Our stay was great. We have stayed in Eladen for the last 15 years during our annual trips and this was our first stay in April Sound. Beautiful with all the Christmas lights up, views of the lake and a secure place to stay. Overall I can’t recommend this location enough.

The photos don’t do this rental justice! It is so cute and in a great area! You can see the lake from the big balcony. Beds super comfy and bathrooms very spacious! Highly recommend!

It was in a gated community and we had issues with the attendant not letting us back in at 11pm after we had already checked in earlier. Bedrooms were downstairs and living areas upstairs which made it difficult for our older guests.

You’re literally a block walk away from watching a beautiful sunset over the lake. The beds were very comfortable and the house was super clean. You do need to know that there’s no coffee or soap or shampoo provided in the bathrooms so you’ll need to bring your own.

Mold was growing in the vents, there was a weird smell, no coffee, no soap or shampoo (the things you would think should be there), The items inside the pantry had duat all over them. Just didn’t feel clean. The one positive was the mattresses were amazing.

We were very impressed with our stay it was nice relaxing and quiet. Beds were very comfortable

Such a beautiful and relaxing location
