Cozy and convenient location

The home located conveniently one block from UNT campus provided us with comfort and relaxation. The beautifully decorated home and host were very welcoming; all our needs were met. The home was also allowed us to tour the region since this was our first visit to the area. Definitely recommend staying here.

Art House perfect for UNT event

We stayed here to celebrate our masters of composition student graduating! It was the perfect place to have as a homebase over the weekend to get back-and-forth to the campus. The property and the garden is beautiful. Everything is labeled so you know how to use it. It’s great. I had a few questions on the host responded very quickly.

Like staying a a best friend's house who has impeccable taste

This home was so VERY comfortable! We felt like we were staying at a best friend's house who has incredible taste in decor and art, but moreover, went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and at home. Everything was provided from all one needs for coffee to midnight snacks to Q-tips in the bathroom. Comfortable beds, cozy living room, completely stocked kitchen, and fun dining room. It was the best VRBO we have ever stayed in. We were in Denton for my nephew's wedding, and if we ever find ourselves there again, we definitely will be staying at Art Haven.

Gorgeous home for a getaway!

No detail is overlooked in this lovely home near the UNT campus. The art is stunning, rooms are beautifully appointed, and the property is so peaceful. Our host was very communicative and welcoming, and I’d absolutely book with her again. I highly recommend this home to anyone staying in the area!

Quiet comfort full of fun and beautiful art!

Wow is the first thing that comes to mind regarding our stayat Art Haven: Immersive Art Stay! From the moment you walk though the front door you feel at home except better! We loved every moment! They truly know how to make you feel welcome! The home is set up perfectly and you have everything you could possibly need. Also, take time to spin some records. The collection they have is on point! We will stay here again!!

Attention to detail throughout!

Was in town for a campus tour. This house was amazing. When we first got there, we did not want to leave for dinner. We enjoyed the record player so much that we bought more records at the record store in downtown and played into the night. The attention to detail is so beautiful and thoughtful. We had fresh ground coffee in the morning. And made popcorn that was on the counter in a bowl of snacks. So thoughtful and very appreciated. You can tell a lot of love went into decorating the space. The amount of plants is insane. Definitely would love to come back if ever in the area.

The Taj Mahal of Denton

As a veteran VRBO renter, ArtHaven is among the best. The Biltmore Estate of Denton..the Taj Mahal? Every review raves about the decorations..ok, agreed..however I choose to focus on the functionality of the entire property AND the thoughtful ways the owner makes sure you lack nothing at your home away from home. For example, my husband forgot his toothbrush. No problem..there was not one but TWO extra in the master bathroom awaiting a new owner. We grilled steaks on the gas grill, and there was an entire KIT of nice grill instruments tucked away in the kitchen pantry. A working fountain in the backyard and seating area illuminated by strings of lights, (never did figure out how they came on..pretty sure it was magic). Spacious kitchen and though this particular trip I didn’t cook much, we had everything at our disposal from olive oil to parchment paper. We had a couple people over to eat twice, and it was pretty sweet to play a Nat King Cole record on a real record player for background music. The entire house is immaculate, and not only the backyard, but the front yard have areas to gather outdoors. I visited the Dime store, (a tip from a card in the home), and walked around Denton square. We hope to book this property again in the future, so it is just fine with me if y’all all go stay somewhere else. My husband and I have always felt that any visitor to our home should be treated like royalty. This time WE were the recipients of the royal treatment.
