Great stay in Harker Heights!
This was probably the best VRBO experience we've had. The house and backyard were beautiful, and the neighborhood was nice. Check-in and communication were seamless (plus there's a handy ipad with videos of things like running the pool to turning on the lights). The house was spotlessly clean and was exactly as we expected it to be based on the listing. Thanks for opening your house up to us, and if we ever the occasion to come back to Central Texas, we'll make sure to stay again!

Everything I was looking for!
This property is amazing. The subdivision was beautiful and houses were not jammed together. I was concerned we would have to worry about bothering neighbors. We were a large family, 8 adults and five children. We had plenty of space, we were able to park two cars in a spacious garage. The house was, as in the pictures, amazing! The outdoor amenities, 5stars! Even though it was cold I knew my grandkids would love it. They also enjoyed the upstairs media room. I have to say, even though we came together in a time of grief there was healing and a sense of comfort being together in this beautiful home. Thank you James, you were always available to answer my questions when I needed you.

Beautiful Home
The home is beautifully decorated and has a great layout. It is designed for entertaining. The ladies loved sitting in the hot tub and watching television. The open concept and large sofa were perfect for visiting. The house is very high-tech, if you are not use to using an iPad or phone to control things like hot tubs or water temperature, this is not a house for you. The oven is also digital. It takes a bit to get into the grove. It is a very electronic house. It's definitely not a home in the city. You do have to do some driving to get to stores, day spas. We did drive to Salado to do some girlie shopping. Bring things you might need for simplicity like clothes detergent, tissues etc. The Master bed is very hard. You might ask about what areas of the house has cameras. I believe there was a live one outside by the pool, not sure. The host made himself available to help us figure out the hot tub and hot water. You can't have the hot tub on if you want a hot shower. There was a little bit of a dance with that but we figured it out.

Best experience on vrbo!!!!!
We absolutely loved this rental. The owners made the check-in very easy. The iPad with all the details of how everything throughout the house worked was a great touch. It was a perfect place for a family getaway. We will definitely be back.

5 stars across the board
This rental was perfect form check-in to check-out everything was flawless. All instructions are on a tablet with videos to help you with anything that could come up. James was responsive and gave us a heads up every time someone has to come visit the house (pool maintenance. Overall you couldn’t ask for a better home away from home.
