Property is in a great location, lots of restaurants and attractions near by.

We were there for the Lonestar Rally and work. We couldn't get a hold of the owner till after 4pm to get in and she apologized and thought we were coming following day. There was only 2 and a quarter rolls of toilet paper for 3 females for 4 days . The knob to separate bath to shower head needs work , there was a drizzle of water coming from shower head. Other than those issues we lived the property and location.
