Was there for my daughter's graduation from UMHB. Great location, fabulous house and close to everything in Belton and Temple.
House was not clean. I have multiple pictures with date stamps if someone wants to challenge my assessment. Hire professionals to clean. Spend money on hand soap and dish soap (not a watered down version). Make sure the recycle makes it to the curb before the next renters show.
Really nice house in a nice, quiet neighborhood close to everything.
Host delayed the check in time, not enough towels, hand towels and wash rags. Dishwasher was broke and only bbq grill that was worth using was a small charcoal grill.
Every thing was over the top! We had a wonderful time and house was so beautiful. I give it more than 10 stars ratings, and if you’re thinking about coming, this is definitely worth it!!!!
Loved the property. Plenty of room for the family and then some. Area was safe and quiet. Close to grocery stores. Derek the host was responsive and accommodating for us. Thank you again Derek! Melissa
Its a beautiful place and very clean!!
House was beautiful. 3 things: We could not get the WIFI to work. We could not get the TV to work. The oven did not heat properly. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay. Victor
I would recommend this VRBO for anyone with a large group as there was plenty of room for my family. Overall the property was nice. Some maintenance needs to be done, but it wasn't anything that stopped us from enjoying our stay.
We checked out after one night due to uncleanliness which the owner admitted he had a replacement cleaning crew. When we texted problems with the house as requested in the owners book, the owner did not apologize he said we could check out. We did check out because we found a roach in the coffee maker, no wash clothes, damp towels in a cabinet, exposed wires, broken bulbs, dirty fish and turtle tanks, and no top sheet on the master bed. The master shower stall wax dirty and we were tired of fixing things. To unplug the patio lights I was directed to a location in the garage, but there was no working light in the garage, where I found exposed wires. I requested a refund from the owner for the three days after we checked out, but I haven’t heard from the owner! Please help me get a reasonable refund for this terrible first VRBO experience!
