Great for a large family.

We had a wonderful week. The highlight of our stay was the wonderful and sweet lady who takes care of the property and cleans, which is a tremendous job. From beginning to end, she was an incredible help. I hope the owners realize what an asset she is. The size of the house, the number of bedrooms and baths, and the land to roam and play in are excellent. It needs some updating, but we will definitely go back. It is fantastic for a large family to enjoy. The only thing that should be changed in the listing to show accurately is the exterior photos to depict how the property looks now so people viewing the images have an accurate idea of what the lack of watering during the Texas drought has sadly done.
