10/10 Excellent
"Had a fantastic stay here. The room was adorable, stayed ice cold, and was spotless from corner to corner. The beds were super comfortable, and it had everything we actually needed—plenty of towels, all the kitchen utensils and dishes were provided, a nice single Keurig for coffee, and a Roku TV plus a small comfortable sofa. One of the best things was that it didn't feel like they were trying to nickel-and-dime you at every turn, which made it a lot easier to just relax and enjoy the trip. Kayla was amazing and took great care of us. The property has direct river access with a great spot for catch-and-release fishing, plus cornhole and a fun photo booth. They also had a couple of arcade games and a pool table in the lobby area. Check in and check out was fantastic in and out. Less than 3 minutes. The pool area, food, and drinks were all solid. There's an HEB that's that's 10 minutes away. There's a Shell station that's right around the corner. Less than 5 minutes away maybe. Even with neighbors downstairs and to the side, it was quiet, there was plenty of parking, and seeing all the deer around was a nice bonus. Definitely worth five stars."
