It was conveniently located and very comfortable. We had plenty of space & everything was clean and nice. The oven was not working but maintenance staff responded immediately to our request for help. The grill and sofa could use repair/replacement but these items did not reduce our enjoyment at all.

Great locationand such a beautifulhouse. Private view of the fireworks show from Moody Gardens during summer period. Really enjoyed the big upgrade and modern design of the master bedroom bathroom and the kitchen. You can easily shower to 2-3 kids together, it\'s big. Kitchen bowls and plates are more than enough along with extra bed sheet and towels. Great pool size and we really enjoyed the dock in the back of the house, where we can just go fishing right there. The filter unit for the pool was not working for some reason. The only problem we had was the toilet in the garage. It was hard to press on and stuck couple times and the stove in the garage was not working either. Beside that we appreciated of having 2 fridges in the house since we had lots of foods with us .

The set up of the house is amazing!! Three levels allowed all of us our own privacy during the trip. The porch swings are great, although moving them back one beam would be fabulous. The neighbors are the world\'s best!! They were so encouraging and helpful during our trip. We shared meat with them and our last day they brought us doughnuts!! The reason I\'m only giving three stars is that the pool was not properly cared for before our arrival or during despite my multiple phone calls to Ryson. Thankfully, my brother-in-law knew what to do so we could utilize the pool. The two boats docked less than 50 feet from the boat dock is a visual eye sore and makes it hard to fish (confirmed to belong to the owner of the house). The lights on the boat dock flicker on/off and some of the lights don\'t work at all. Only one light out of 4 worked properly. I would suggest a deeper cleaning between rentals as there was blood on the walls and the house was crawling with ants. There is multiple piles of fire ants around the property so be careful when having little kids out there.
