Pool Cottage in Historic Old Town Beaumont

This cozy space is perfect for traveling workers, families, or just passing through town.

We're centrally located, a quick drive to anywhere in Beaumont (including Lamar and both hospitals). The neighborhood is peaceful and is known for its historic homes and beautiful old trees. The main house (where we live) and this apartment (above our detached garage) were built in 1926, during the height of Beaumont's boom from the oil and lumber industry.

It boasts a full kitchen, 9-foot ceilings, original hardwood floor, and a full bathroom with a tall-person-friendly shower. It also opens up to a private deck overlooking the back yard and pool.

Other amenities include fast wifi and ethernet, driveway parking, and a dedicated washer/dryer. A number of great local restaurants are a quick stroll or drive away.

The TV has basic cable, local channels, Netflix, Disney+, Apple TV, and Amazon Prime. You can also log in with your own streaming accounts.

You can come and go as you wish, and we provide self-checkin (the door uses a key code, so there are no keys to keep track of).

Guests have full use of the spacious saltwater pool anytime, 24/7. It's unheated, so it's only swim-ready during the warm months (roughly April through September). This pool *is shared* with our family, who live on the property, but we do our best to give guests privacy when they're using the pool area.

Guests also have a dedicated washer and dryer downstairs from the apartment.

We work from home, so we're almost always a quick message or knock away if you have any questions. We're also happy to give tips for museums, galleries, restaurants, and other fun things to do in Beaumont!

There is a full-sized bed, and a love seat with a pull-out twin bed. We allow up to three guests, since that's theoretically possible and plenty of guests have done so, but in practice, the room comfortably sleeps 1-2.

This is a "studio" apartment, so as you can see in the photos, the bedroom *is* the living room, and both beds are in that room. Two other important notes about the beds:

• A "full" bed (aka "double") is a cozy fit for two people if you're more accustomed to a queen or king. It has a medium-firm, two-layer hypoallergenic memory foam mattress.
• With the twin pulled out of the love seat, there is no floor space for an additional inflatable bed.

Please note that our neighbors have LOUD DOGS who can BARK FOR HOURS and a ROOSTER with terrible time-keeping skills. Most guests aren't bothered, but if you're a light sleeper, please plan ahead and bring your white noise machine or whatever else you usually use to get your rest. We do provide comfy disposable earplugs in the medicine cabinet.
