Convenient to DT San Marcos and our venue. The only area of improvement would be to have a larger water heater as with the nice garden tub in use and showers going hot water struggled to keep up, easy fix. We would return, we enjoyed our stay. ##### Jim W. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah C.

Mar 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Quick Getaway Karina provided us with detailed instructions and was always very responsive! A beautiful property that has the perfect location. It was a very short walk to the San Marcos River and park. Also, short driving distance to popular areas such as the San Marco Shopping Outlet. The house provided all the things we needed brand new! First rental that we were not missing something. Plenty of space for our families, and big yard for the kids to run around and enjoy. Will definitely be back! ##### CHRISTINA H. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### kerri S.

Location is perfect for trips to TXST, town square, grocery store and restaurants! The neighborhood is old but very quiet and we felt perfectly safe! Inside the house is completely redone and exceptionally clean. Beds and linens were great, lots of space in the living room and kitchen for visiting, great natural light and the temperature inside was balanced and comfortable. The extras made the stay even better! The coffee bar came with gourmet-tasting coffee, filters, and tea choices- and sugar (thank you!) The bath had bath salts/bubbles and the showers had great shampoo/soap/conditioner. This is one of the few places that allows you to bring your pet and the backyard was amazing for my dog. My TXST student was really missing him and it made for a special visit. If you have a tiny dog be aware there is space around the side where a little one could squeeze under the fence. The host was easy to communicate with and very nice! Obviously, I recommend staying here. ##### kerri S. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tom W.

We prepared meals and enjoyed family and friends for dinner. Exceptional access to the river walk, parks and walking path. Our host was very responsive. The neighborhood is quiet and the neighbors were welcoming. The back yard is in close proximity to the interstate. No issues with noise or safety. A very pleasant stay! Thank you!! ##### Tom W.

The house is nice and for me the location is excellent because my main reason for going is to enjoy the river. I would have no hesitation in staying at this property again. ##### Thomas D.

Fourth bedroom does not have a bed, but worked out well for us as a "kids room." ##### Michael M. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anne J.
