Fun, peaceful stay

Karen was wonderful to communicate with. Her place had plenty of space and everything we needed. The community was very quiet and marina close by was nice for some fishing. We also had fun going to a classic car show and market in the cute downtown area.

Cape Royale Visit

We enjoyed our stay at Harbour Home especially sitting out on the deck having wine every evening. Karen was very friendly, easy to communicate with, and helpful with our questions. She also left a nice welcome/gift basket for our stay. We will be returning in a couple of months.

Weekend Getaway

This is a very cozy property. The check in and out process was very easy. The porch was one of our favorite places to sit in the evening. Only negative would be to provide better pots and pans for cooking, more plates and possible steak knives. Karen was very responsive to our questions.

Beautiful and Peaceful Lake House

The family and I had a great time at this lake house. It was clean and very well kept inside and out. We really enjoyed the double balcony with a great view of the lake. There was plenty of space for our puppy to safely play. The community was is very peaceful and safe. We will definitely will be back to take in more of the amenities in the house and the community. Lastly, the owner Karen was extremely helpful, accommodating, and quick to respond to our every request. We love this place and will be back.

Return Visit - Birthday Celebration

This was our 2nd time to stay at Harbor House. We had a wonderful time celebrating my birthday and relaxing with the nice view of the marina and lake from the living room area and both decks. The house is a short, walking distance from the marina making an evening stroll near the water a daily event in the peaceful neighborhood. The owner, Karen, is great to work with! She left treats for our dog, birdseed for the feeders, and some wine for my bday! The house was very clean, and the kitchen was stocked with items needed to prepare meals during our stay. We hope to stay again in the spring!

Great long weekend getaway

We chose to go for a long weekend to get out of Houston. It was an easy drive and when we got there it was a super easy check in process. The property is as advertised and has a nice view of the marina area off the deck. The community is really nice to and it’s an easy drive to Coldsprings if you need food or other resources. I would recommend this property.

Good but dated

The location in the Cape is great. You can see the Marina from the deck. The home is dated but cozy. The kitchen is small but has additional items in the laundry room. The pictures are accurate and the owner is quick to respond to questions/issues.

LONG-TERM VISIT

My husband and I spent several weeks at Karen's property in Cape Royale before the 1st of the New Year. With boating, fishing, hiking, bird and wildlife watching ( not to mention the pool and tennis courts at the recreation area!) there are many outdoor activities available to keep you busy during the day and a large outdoor patio with fire pit to relax and enjoy the sunset at the end of the day. The house is well-equipped, pet-friendly and clean, and Karen was very responsive to any maintenance issues that came up. WiFi accommodated all the devices we were using without any problems. The "neighborhood" of Cape Royale is exceeding well maintained and people we encountered on our dog walk were very friendly and welcoming. My husband and I are part of the AARP generation and after awhile the stairs to the master suite on the second level became a bit much for us. We would definitely like to return to the Cape Royal area but we will look for a single-level rental home. Thanks for sharing your home with us Karen!
