Family Vacay in Temple

The property was well maintained and clean. We felt very comfortable relaxing at the pool. We especially enjoyed sitting in the hot tub in the evening gazing at the stars.

Quiet Relaxing Stay

We were visiting Temple in order to visit family. The house was perfect for the 4 of us that stayed there. The pool and spa were a welcome extra for us. This is a beautiful property and the hosts are kind and gracious. We really enjoyed the stay. Lots of little "special" perks and gestures made it extra special.

Awesome place

The place was very clean. The property managers were amazing to work with. It is one of the prettiest places we have stayed and enjoyed every minute of it. The pool was very refreshing/enjoyable for the kiddos. This is a place we would stay again.
