Home was very clean, had great air conditioning, fast Wi-Fi, luxurious bedding & comfortable furniture for our family of 6 adults. We had a great time playing foosball in the game room, sitting together in the family room & hanging out in the kitchen area which had plenty of seating. The backyard was really pretty with a nice water feature & has some nicely appointed seating areas & a Blackstone grill (that we unfortunately didn’t have an opportunity to use), that was very clean. Bedrooms were huge (Texas sized!) and had fun themes/decor & historical info. Easy walk to campus & the Jones Stadium for football. Wonderful location! Our host Eric was excellent communicating with us & checking in to ensure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend this property & host. We would definitely stay here again!
