Wedding weekend

Great older home in downtown McKinney that has been redone in a beautiful rustic style with all the modern amenities. Kitchen is amazing-I would love to have it in my own home! Wedding weekend with friends and family and the venues close by. Great downtown area close to everything you could need and then some.

Stay for Wedding

Beautiful & fairly convenient home to downtown & The Rosemary wedding venue. Really liked the fact that there was a fenced in yard so our dogs didn't have to be on leashes. Would recommend!
