Wedding weekend
Great older home in downtown McKinney that has been redone in a beautiful rustic style with all the modern amenities. Kitchen is amazing-I would love to have it in my own home! Wedding weekend with friends and family and the venues close by. Great downtown area close to everything you could need and then some.

Perfect home base
Perfect home base for Thanksgiving spent with family living in McKinney. Great to be able to escape back to our own spot for some alone time. Plenty of room for everyone, including the dogs. Great location and beautiful home. Highly recommend!
