My wife and I traveled to Frisco for two weeks and had a lovely stay at the Fifth Avenue Retreat. We've stayed in Frisco many times, and this place is definitely a great value in the area. It's location just a block and a half off of Main Street makes it perfect for a casual breakfast at Butterhorn's and getting a mid-day lunch or coffee. We stayed in the winter, so we especially appreciated the heated garage (large enough to fit a Jeep Grand Cherokee), fenced in backyard, private hot tub and gas fireplace. There were a few very minor cons to be aware of. First, we were working remotely from there, and the Internet speed seemed to be slower than most places in the area. We could still stream our favorite shows without any interruptions, but when we tried to download large files or participate in video calls, the internet sometimes struggled (we overcame the video call issue by having MSTeams call our cell phone instead). Second, the kitchen is a hodge-podge of plates, glasses, pans, etc. Some rentals you can tell are setup to be rentals with exactly what you need for a stay; whereas others appear to be a compilation of what someone's acquired over the years. In the kitchen, this unit appears to be the latter. Then third, for what this unit costs, it baffles me that they have low-quality tissues, toilet paper and paper towels. This is unfortunately common in most rentals across the area, but it's frustrating when on our first day there we have to go out and buy Kleenex, Charmin and Bounty.Those three cons are all very minor and easily fixable, so with all of that being said, this was a wonderful place for our 2-week winter "workcation" in Frisco, and we would gladly return in the future. =)
