Claudia Winters

Claudia was the most gracious hostess. Her home was beautiful, clean, well stocked. I wished I had been able to stay longer. Quiet neighborhood. Bunnies and birds and I even saw a raccoon scurry down the street!! Close to everything. Old charm is so relaxing!!!

Fantastic!

Stayed for a long weekend with my groomsmen/groomswomen for my wedding! The place was absolutely lovely. It was clean, the house is bigger than it seems in the pictures, and Claudia (owner) was super kind and thoughtful. She gave us a wonderful tour of the place when we first checked in and made sure we knew that if we needed literally anything, all we had to do was reach out. Definitely recommend!

Eclectic step back in time

Claudia's place was the perfect spot for our annual family meeting, lovely living room, dining room, and kitchen areas. We enjoyed our stay and loved the history of the spot. Beds were all comfy and the home was clean and fresh for our arrival.

This old house needs help

Claudia was a great communicator and basic areas of the house were clean. Other than that, we cannot recommend this property. The online photos were misleading. The air conditioner, dish washer, and bedroom TV did not work properly. The furniture was run down, the house was only partially painted and patched together with poorly done tile, woodworking and wallpaper. There was an odd musty smell that might have come from garage sale items everywhere, especially in the formal living room. My husband and I are experienced rental property hosts. Our opinion is that this old house needs a lot of work to justify the listed price per night.

Historical Home in La Porte

The property was fun and roomy and the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed berry picking, the dunes, and Pine Lake. Claudia was easy to communicate with and greeted us when we arrived. Rosemary

Perfect for our needs

Host was great - communicated in advance of the trip and was available throughout. Was even fortunate enough to meet in person as we were slightly early getting in. House was as described in listing. Wish we could have enjoyed all the house had to offer - our trip was too short and our schedules too tight.

Southern Hospitality comes Midwest

To begin with, my wife is a doctor and I’m an engineer. We both come from very humble backgrounds working hard for all. With that said, we have stayed around the world at $500-1,000/day hotels that are 4-5 star where you have everyone tending to every step and property is worth millions. If you are expecting that, you need to put 500-1,000/day to find that. This property is like staying at your grandmother’s home where the property has been kept up well. The owner has thought of everything you will need and is available instantly. The place was very clean. Owner was very courteous to the point you felt like family. The place is spacious and had the WiFi needed to do business. Large yard, furniture outdoor to lounge outside. Grill. It was home away from home. Son 8 yrs old loved the house as well and we slept in peaceful very quiet neighborhood. Definitely would recommend you stay here.

We stayed here for a couple of days so that our older son and his wife could join us and our other children for a day at the beach. We enjoyed the home very much. Claudia is a gracious host; she takes excellent care of her guests,
