Many areas of danger for children
unprotected stairs without handrails making it dangerous for mobile children and older people. Otherwise big place with ample space. Comfortable beds, nice fixtures, very clean.

We came to Dallas for a family event. We were multigenerational adults and appreciated the different spaces. I can see that young children would love this home!

Cousins’ reunion
The house was beautiful and spacious with lots of room to hang out altogether. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. The pool was great and the location was great being near everything you need but feeling like you’re in the country. Only warnings, the yard has sharp stickers and the house has a lot of stairs so just be careful with little ones. The hosts were wonderful though and very responsive to anything you need.

The pictures that are posted online doesn't do this place any justice. The house was absolutely gorgeous. Everyone in my family loved the house from the downstairs of it to the horse on the property. I will definitely recommend this place to anyone. The owners were great with any questions i had

Amazing Family Compound
Had an amazing time! The hosts were amazing and super responsive. We had a large group of children who needed to have cribs etc… delivered they opened up early to be sure we had beds ready for my grandchildren. The horses around the property were great to see especially a group of kids from Boston. Party was sparkling clean and new… Watched the Texas game on great TV’s and had a barbecue by the pool as well.. 5 STAR…

Lovely home and neighborhood
Rented this place to celebrate my birthday with friends. The home was very spacious and ample space in additional rooms to place air mattresses. It comfortable accommodated all guests and the hosts were very gracious. We had an issue with the fridge and they came by and opened up the garage to accommodate us so that all our food would not spoil. I wish the booking policy for a minimum of nights were adequately noted in the description so that it was clear, however, we enjoyed our weekend. Distance is relatively close to DFW airport and also close to Grapevine shopping. Really easy commute to many close locations. There is ample land and distance between homes and while we were there we encountered no interruptions with noise complaints. Thank you for overall making our stay welcome and as we mentioned to your husband, this is a very lovely home!! Should you decide to keep it, I would consider it for future rental.

Family reunion
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Lots of space for family gatherings and activities (pool, ping pong, pool table and some games). Especially enjoyed the pool, hot tub, and outdoor dining area. Location is very private and quiet, yet close to lake, stores, etc. Host was very responsive to any questions or requests that we had. We highly recommend this house.

90th Birthday Celebration
Our family stayed at the MarlinHouse Retreat for a weekend celebrating my mother’s 90th birthday. Only my family of 8 adults and 4 children slept at the house. The bedrooms are amazing and so numerous. Our children with kids had a room to themselves and an adjoining room for the kids. The common space was massive and perfect for hosting the whole family for lunch and a swim. The house was extremely clean and had everything we needed to prepare meals. Alyse was always quick to answer any questions we had and had everything we needed for the kids (baby Toys, building blocks for the older kids, pack-n-plays, high chairs and pool toys). The kids loved seeing the horse on the property and those next door, plus a family of deer. Thanks Alyse for a great weekend!

Paradise is Close By
Hosts were super responsive and helpful - a delight. This oasis is quiet and has the feel of being away from everything but yet it is minutes to entertainment and restaurants. Close enough to Arlington if you are thinking about World Cup Soccer, football, baseball. The house has good rooms and plenty to do. Our family had 7 teens who played water volleyball, cornhole, pickleball, pingpong and board games. It's also very close to Lake Grapevine so we rented a pontoon boat for a couple of days. Close to another park that has paddle boards. Grapevine Mills is close - go to Meow Wolf. Hot tub and lots of spots for reading or quiet reflection too. ENJOY!

Gorgeous country home
This house is simply gorgeous! Nice and private. You felt you were in the country but the Neighborhood Walmart was only 5 min away. The house had everything you needed for a comfortable stay! We had a few questions and the host got back with us quickly. The house accommodated 12 people comfortably. Pool was great on a hot summer day in Texas! Best of all was the picnic table that seated all of us comfortably. It was nice at meal time to have everyone seated at the table. Thank you for a wonderful stay!!!

Great place for a getaway.
It is in an ideal location for a vacation. The house is super spacious and the kitchen is super well stocked for cooking. The living room and game room are perfect for hanging out and other gatherings. The owners are 100% on top of making sure you know good places to go nearby and even provided a sun and moon themed goodie basket for our eclipse trip. Would stay again in a heart beat!
