Great Stay

Check in process was very easy. Our check in time was at 4 and we asked the owner if we could come in earlier to which he agreed and allowed us to come in earlier. That was already a big plus off the start and once we arrived we were even more pleased to see a cute home nicely decorated and clean. The house had all the things you’d need for a perfect week away. The neighborhood was also very pleasant we encountered no issues while we stayed. Highly recommend staying here.

Well stocked with everything we needed.

We visited Fort Worth to see friends and the Stockyards. The hot tub was a wonderful place to relax after a busy day. The house is stocked with everything we needed. We also discovered some nice little diners in the area for breakfast. Our favorite being West Side Cafe. If we return to the area we will certainly try to stay there again!!

Great house with a hot tub

I specifically reserved this house because of the hot tub even though it was a little farther out than I wanted to stay. Hot tub was amazing. I also looked forward to soaking in a relaxing bath but where the tile met the tub had some mildew or mold there so I didn’t want to do anything other than shower.

5 Stars!! Will be back.

This home away from home is exactly that. It was perfect for our family, had everything we needed and more and is conveniently located to multiple restaurants and local shopping. The home itself was very clean and just as described. My communication with James was timely and thorough. I highly recommend to anyone visiting the area.

Relaxing Getaway

The house had everything we needed! After mentioning we were planning on grilling they even made sure we had a full propane bottle. Loved the Hot tub and easy access to Dickies Arena, downtown Fort Worth, the zoo and botanical gardens. Great place to stay, the hosts were easy to contact and very responsive! When we walked in we could tell it had been cleaned very recently and there were more than enough towels, blankets and swim towels for everyone to use. Checkout was a breeze too! It was everything we were looking for.

We are the cognitos (yep that's our real last name ) Julia grew up in Texas,only a few blocks away ! James grew up in California and moved to Texas to work as a commercial diver . We fell in love and worked hard to purchase our beloved home in Benbrook

Why they chose this property

Julia literally grew up a few blocks away, Benbrook is a municipality located inside the amazing city of Fort Worth. Benbrook is Quiet, safe,family oriented small town conveniently located to all that fortworth has to offer and Dallas is only 40 minutes away . Our neighbors have become dear friends and we feel proud and lucky to live there ,small town in a big city

What makes this property unique

As the name implies"captains cottage ", we are ocean people, our beloved home reflects that
From the deck that resembles a dock, huge fire pit surrounded by sand to the custom 100 foot printed back yard fence ocean view . We sailed away on our boat when the world went into lockdown and love that other people can come stay , enjoy and fall in love with our home
