EJ was an awesome host! He was extremely helpful, responsive, and hands-on. Prior to check in, EJ initiated contact, maintain throughout our stay, and followed up to ensure we were completely satisfied.
The home was huge and provided enough beds for 12 adults. The furniture is a old but adequate. The game table and arcade machine was underwhelming but the adults didn't mind and the 10 kids still used them.
I highly recommend anyone staying here and I/We would stay again.

We had 11 family members in town for our son's wedding. There was plenty of space for all of us. The house was clean, spacious, and a welcome basket was waiting for us when we arrived. We met EJ and he was very nice and accommodating. Try staying here if you have a large family.

Positive experience
We held a small wedding at the house, and some of our out-of-town children and grandchildren stayed for a long weekend. Everyone enjoyed the house and the surrounding community. Communication was great, and EJ and his team were very kind and accommodating.

The host was very helpful and willing to help if needed. The house served the purpose needed with plenty of room and entertainment. If/when returning back to Houston area for a stay I will look into this location again. Nestled in a quiet neighborhood made the stay that much better and comforting!

Wonderful opportunity to celebrate with family
We had more than enough beds and found every room useful.
The game room was probably the favorite room, plus the excellent tv's and cable provided lots of family memories. The kitchen has enough supplies for a family of 4. The backyard was a wonderful addition to lazy days and celebratory nights.

EJ was an amazing host.
The home was perfect for us. We were in a soccer tournament at Meyer Park...and it couldn't have been more convenient. EJ was great. If I needed anything, he was immediate response.

The property manager was great on communication and very helpful. House was clean and ready to go. They even offered to help with finding things for my event but wasnt needed. They go up and beyond to help and make sure the stay is amazing. Gorgeous home at the end of a street so dont have to worry to much on neighbors. Close to lots of things the mall food bars and anything needed. Would definitely return to this property

We were really excited to come and stay here. The house and space is big like we needed it to be, but it was so filthy. The bathrooms had not been cleaned and it was apparent due to hair being all over two of the bathrooms and pee splashes in the toilet seat on one of them. The bedroom sheets and blankets had not been changed or washed, once again because we found hair on them and some dirty stains. The fridge doesn’t cool off very well and it has a questionable smell to it. The stove was so gross, it has oil splashed over it. The floors were not swept or mopped, we walked around on socks and they were turned black because of the floor within minutes. On top of that, my husband’s car was hit by one of the owner’s workers. We heard back from the owner and he gave us his worker’s info. But have yet to hear back from the worker. We are truly disappointed.

Spacious and clean
My brothers and I stayed here the week of thanksgiving with our multitudes of kids. The house and yard have ample space for the kids to play, everything was clean, and the hosts are very responsive. The kitchen was a bit sparse, but that was understandable since the house is a new listing. We left a few condiments for the next family and hope they enjoy their stay as much as we did!
