Graduation

This property is beautiful! It was pretty for our family as we celebrated our daughter's graduation from seminary. It gave us a place to sit and enjoy each other. It was a perfect location to a lot of what we had planned for our time in Texas. Our host Jean and Mike were great!

Holiday getaway

We booked this beautiful home on Easter weekend. After looking at the many options for homes in the area, we chose this one based on the proximity to family and the amazing reviews. It did not disappoint in any way. We were so impressed with not only the home itself, but also with the communication and “little extras” the owners provided. It is a lovely home within a sweet, quiet neighborhood. One of the best we’ve ever stayed in, to be sure. It was truly a wonderful weekend and hope to get to stay here at “The Belle” again! Thank you!

Totally amazing property

The Belle on Birchman was everything you could want in a VRBO property. The six of us all had a most enjoyable stay. The house is charming and so very well furnished and decorated. I have not stayed at a property that had everything we needed too be very comfortable. The kitchen had so many extra’s you would not expect to find in a rental. The snack basket was a yummy addition. The interaction I had with the host was so helpful and kind. Jean is a special host! I would recommend this property to anyone that needs a convenient location to so much in Fort Worth. I would give them 10 stars but could only give five!!!!

Adorable home in quiet neighborhood

We came to town with adult children to visit my aging parents whose home would not accommodate all of us.This home was such a comfy spot for us to relax in the evenings. It’s located near all of the interesting locations in Fort Worth; Close to TCU and the cultural district and restaurants and retail. It’s an older neighborhood but the homes are cute and well-maintained. You can hear the nearby freeway but that’s not a big deal to us. The smallest bed was a queen size and that was so great for our family. No one felt like they had the lesser room. All of their remodeling choices are lovely. We would return here and hopefully we can in the spring or fall when we could enjoy the outdoor patio. The owners are lovely to work with as well. We were all pleased!

All the details!

Great location right off the interstate but tucked into a neighborhood running distance to the botanic gardens. Backyard oasis with lights, cornhole, oversized jenga and more kept door kids entertained and allowed us relaxing mornings and evenings! Host supplied all the (softest) towels, toilet paper, trash bags, coffee supplies and more! Even had a wonderful snack basket my kids ravaged. Places was spacious and clean, surpassing our expectations! Comfortable beds with plenty of extra blankets and pillows. Felt right at home, would 100% stay here again if we make it back to Fort Worth again.

Great place for a gathering

A recent stay at this Vrbo property for a girls' weekend was exceptional. The house offered abundant amenities, including a well-stocked kitchen, spacious living room, and comfortable beds. The remodeling efforts and details were evident in the beautiful interior. The availability of games and books added to the experience, and the tranquil street location was a definite plus. Additionally, the host's quick and responsive communication was greatly appreciated. Highly recommended for a relaxing getaway.

A week of comfort and convenience

We spent a week at this property while our son attended camp at TCU. The home is in a very convenient location. We were able to quickly and easily get to TCU, Trinity Park, Downtown Fort Worth and the Stockyards. The home is in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood. The home is updated and very clean. The backyard is very nice and relaxing. Our stay was very comfortable. Thank you for the restaurant recommendations! Our favorite was the Paris Coffee Shop.

Home base- TCU

We had a lovely stay at Belle on Birchman. It was an ideal location with plenty of space to gather inside and out. It was our sons graduation and some guests stayed at hotels. Well stocked and nicely appointed. We lovingly referred to this as “home base”.

Girls Weekend in Ft Worth

I found The Belle of Birchman on VRBO after looking at a lot of places. As soon as we walked in the door we were all very impressed with the house. It was extremely well appointed in accommodations and all the amenities. The kitchen was well stocked and they even left us a basket of goodies (which we did raid.) The backyard was spacious and had very comfortable furniture. I would highly recommend this house if you plan to visit Ft Worth. Six of us stayed there and we had plenty of room.

Delightful and charming

This rental was an easy five star rental!! Nestled in what feels like a safe family neighborhood with its sweet little porch it brought out a remembrance of simpler times of sipping on sweet tea on your front porch as you wave at your passing neighbors. When you enter inside you are wrapped in comfort and luxury as you relax and enjoy the beauty and comfort of this charming home. The hosts have anticipated your every need and have paid attention to details to make your stay is a wonderfully welcoming experience and it shows in their generosity of amenities provided. There is a wonderful back patio with table and chairs, horseshoes, and a outdoor grill that had us longing for warmer weather so we could have the opportunity to enjoy that space too during our stay. The beds were so comfortable, I was immediately lulled into the most tranquil sleep. This place was an absolute pleasure to stay in, I highly recommend it and we’ll definitely return.
