    We absolutely love this place and we will stay there again. Clean, quiet, beautiful. The perfect size for our family of 4. And the dock is very nice one for a boat and 2 jet skis. Move area to swim too. Lots of outdoor seating.

    Great location right on the water! Comfortable, clean with nice updates. Boat house with lift was great and so convenient. Place to launch right next to the property — how sweet! Host was quick to respond and resolve any minor issues we encountered. We enjoyed our stay!

    Great house and neighborhood! House was very clean and nice. Super comfortable bed and great shower. It was a little cold (we were there in January), but still got in some fishing off of the pier. Views are beautiful! HEB is very close by - super convenient. Overall superb stay!

    Lovely home, all the necessities are provided. Two recliners with a river view out of the large picture windows in back, viewed through gorgeous old oak trees. Nature abounds. A bonus of an entertaining eclectic duck group, who came to visit us daily. Thank you, highly recommend!

    The house was great. Perfect for 2 couples. We were right on the water. There is a boat ramp right next to to house. We loved the boat lift. We could leave the boat in the lift when we weren’t using it. Reasonably priced. Beautiful decks and yard. Quiet neighborhood! We will be back next year! I have already recommended it to several friends!
