Family reunion
There were three of us adults and the home had room for our daughter , husband, our granddaughter, grandson and great granddaughter. We enjoyed the dining area which was big enough for eight of us. I had silly questions and the host answered immediately!

The house was welcoming and clean. The word that comes to mind is “cozy” when I think of this property. It is located near McMurry University so I would encourage alumni or parents visiting the area to check it out.

Perfect location! Such a lovely home!!
We were in town for a family wedding shower and some meetings for work. The location was great. The home is pet friendly which is important to us. The home was built sturdy so the walls are thick, some of us go to bed early, some stay up later, couldn’t hear the tv in the living room with the doors shut. We would definitely stay here again.

What a beautiful property. This is a wonderfully unique property nestled in a quiet neighborhood set one block off Sayles. Historic charm with new renovations throughout. The best stocked kitchen of any VRBO we have ever reserved. Beautiful flower gardens and the covered porch begs for you to come sit and enjoy the day conversing with family and friends. Location was great. Just minutes from the downtown Soda district and a short 8 minutes from ACU. A truly hidden gem.
