Needs upgrades
We stayed for a women's retreat. I am going to start this review with the positives. Home was in a great location, it was spacious and a/c unit worked well. Lots of dishes for cooking which is a huge plus for rentals. Now here is where we have to highlight some issues. Rental was not cleaned properly, there were bugs in beds(not bedbugs) maybe beetles, bugs all over stairs in master room, carpets, furniture and rugs were filthy. Even bedspreads had stains. Property shows signs of neglect especially with furniture new cleaners that take pride in their work is needed, needs major furniture upgrades. A house of this magnitude should have more pride taken in it. Also pool cleaners didn't come until the end of our last day. Overall nice location, plenty of space but definitely needs work.

Would not recommend
I'll start with the positives. Beautiful location with sunrises/sunsets, plenty of space to accommodate large groups, plus a large game room. Property management quickly responded to messages and was easy to reach. Now the negatives (all of which were brought to the attention of property management throughout our stay via pictures and emails). The house was not clean. There were mouse droppings in the kitchen cabinets and drawers. We found an old bag of donuts in the cabinets and old sugar caked in a container on the counter. There were items in several bedroom drawers, including screws and clothing). The master bath shower and one sink did not drain properly. Also the homeowner was installing a pool on the side of the house, to which we were told would not impact our stay. However, when we arrived there were trucks and workers moving about the property. Though we asked that work cease during our stay, we were told the work would continue. Workers were on sight everyday to include pouring gunite at 6:30AM on Saturday morning with several workers and 5-6 commercial trucks accessing the yard and driveway. The only thing the property management offered was to come by to look at the master shower and sink; however, we declined because we felt our family reunion trip was intruded upon enough and we opted to use other available sinks/showers. There's more but suffice it to say I would not stay at this house again or recommend it.

The size and location of the home is amazing! Everyone having a bed and privacy made our weekend so enjoyable. Nothing better than sharing a cup of coffee on the deck, looking over the water with your sisters. ♥️

A Little Piece of Texas Heaven!
We did our corporate retreat at this house and really enjoyed it. The home is very spacious and clean, and being right on the water was excellent! The sunsets in the evening could not be beat! The host was amazing at responding quickly to any of our questions or needs and we would recommend staying at this location.

Amazing property and So much fun!!
One of our best big family vacations! The property is so big that it has something for everyone! Even though the water level of the lake was too low for boating we found things to do. The bunkroom was a hit for all ages. The beds/bedding were comfortable. The finishes inside and out were so nice and pretty. The two fully equipped kitchens and 2 dens were perfect for a large group. The multiple bedrooms & bathrooms accommodated all. Bring your own towels ;) The patios/decks outside were so relaxing. The area was easy to get to, quiet and overall a FUN time! The owner communicated constantly and professionally. A wonderful experience and vacation!

Family Vacay
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. There was plenty of room to stretch out and every couple had a private bedroom. The game room and pool table were a hit. Our only issue, which our host had no control over, was that Lake Livingston had a infestation of zebra muscles which prevented boats from being in the lake. Nevertheless we still had fun. Our host, Russell, was responsive to all of our needs.

Great location, needs a thorough cleaning
The location is beautiful! The house is spacious and the rooms were clean. However, there was trash from the previous renters all around the dumpster, but the host took care of it on our second day. The dock needs a thorough cleaning to be usable, and the screened porches on the house do as well. Our children really enjoyed the game room. We saw a couple beautiful sunsets!
