    Adorable Craftsman Home
    This is a lovely home with lots and lots of character. Original floors, windows and built ins make you feel like you're at grandma's house. Its roomy, spacious and there are lots of personal touches around the house, like autographed movie posters and artwork. Great location for a Fort Worth visit. We will be back.

    Great little getaway with easy freeway access
    The house was exactly what we needed for our eclipse trip! Plenty of room for us to relax, comfortably furnished and a well appointed kitchen. Hostess left a much welcomed pitcher of cold water in the fridge for us and a binder with info on the area and local eateries. Easy access to freeways and a quiet neighborhood at night. Would definitely recommend!

    Great house near TCU
    This was a great house for our girls weekend. Its location is great! We enjoyed walking to campus to see how much it's changed since we were students there. The house was a clean and comfortable place for us to relax and catch up. We didn't cook (too many great places to eat in FW!), but the kitchen appeared to be well-stocked. I was a little unsure about backing out of the driveway onto a busy street, but we had zero problems with it. Would be a great place to stay for football games/family weekend/graduation.

    Wonderful bungalow with everything we needed, close to TCU
    This is a charming, well-organized bungalow close to TCU, with two bedrooms, and absolutely everything a guest could need. The host even overnighted a coffee bean grinder for us! The home is tastefully filled with books and art, but done in such a way to leave plenty of room for our items. University drive is somewhat noisy, but we had been forewarned and brought earplugs, so we were fine. Overall, one of the best guest stays I have ever had. We were there for two weeks, and enjoyed the walks, dining, campus life, and quiet, comfortable reading spaces. Most highly recommend Sharon’s place.

    FW Stock Show and Rodeo
    The most wonderful little house!! (I say little because it was very “homey”, but actually tons of room!) From the second we walked in, it felt like home to our tired stock show family. Great location, clean, charming, and personal touches were perfect. We will be back for a fun weekend of the zoo and Botanical gardens or a girls weekends with my classmates. Thank you!
