Rustic Lake Cabin
We had a nice stay at this property. The outdoor space and access to the lake are wonderful. The host was very responsive and is located next door. You can appreciate the character of this 1950s cabin/house. Having a fire and looking at the lake where the highlights of our January visit.

Perfect home for 3 ladies!
We loved this place and will come back if we can. I loved that I felt close to nature, even though I could see the Gaylord from afar! We had a view of Lake Grapevine, a nice back patio, mature trees, and privacy! This was a COLD weekend and the heater worked well! House is older but we like that. Lots of character, everything was clean, beds soft, plenty of blankets. We needed one random thing and the owner answered quickly and got it to us! Coffee pot and grains provided, plenty of clean towels, and about a 5 minute drive to downtown Grapevine. We also walked to the Lake and did a few trails!! Only had a few cars pass us on the way there. The neighborhood feels kind of hidden and obviously people don’t use it as a shortcut to get around town. I felt safe!

Disappointed
We were very disappointed with our first Vrbo experience. The condition of the property was not as shown in the online pictures and definitely didn’t live up to the high standards portrayed by the Vrbo commercials. We had hoped to have a relaxing time but it was so noisy that was hard to do. The fan in the living area was loud. The heater even louder. There was construction going on in the area which was very disruptive and the house is on the flight path to the airport so the airplanes flying overhead was annoying. Not to mention there was someone who literally spent the whole day on Christmas Eve right outside the back door mowing and using a leaf blower. The television was also difficult to watch due to the poor antenna connection. We would not recommend this location if you are looking for a relaxing upscale vacation.

Great Location
Close to the Gaylord Texan and lake is nice (great for skipping rocks), close to lots of amenities.
A cold front came while there and the heat worked well - although the heat blower is noisy. It's an older cottage, so it's drafty and you can hear the airport noise.
For the price, it's a good option if you need to stay near the Gaylord Texan.

Annual trip
Stay here every year to meet up with friends. Perfect for us.
Richard, the host was very kind and close by. The neighborhood is walkable and a short drive to Grapevine’s Main Street for shopping and dining. So close for our convention at the Gaylord. Would totally stay here again!

Fun girls weekend
Great place to drink coffee and enjoy the lake. The host was friendly and came to replace a light bulb that went out. He also brought us firewood for the firepit. The lights on back patio set a great evening atmosphere. If u have business at the Gaylord it is very convenient or if you are like us and needed a girls wkend at wineries it is perfect and so close to Grapevine Main street. Love the neighborhood- quiet and quaint. Fun people watching as cyclists ride by the lake. Adorable inside and out

Good location, online pictures are outdated
Easy commute to Gaylord and Main Street. Interior of house was clean and as pictured, but the exterior areas are not in the condition as pictured. Exterior furniture and maintenance has been deferred. The house backs up to a traffic roadway, which looks like a park path in listing picture. Overall, it served the purpose for our family of 4, but I will try something different next time.

Inviting
The home was very clean and inviting. We had everything we needed. I would suggest some steaming device for the tv. The local antenna did not work half the time. We are not late night people, so we relax at night (watch a little football). We would stay again.

Cool Cottage for Young Family
We were very impressed overall with the communication, cleanliness, and troubleshooting with the homeowner (Richard). He even took care of some wasps and let us back inside when a child locked us out. The home was very cozy and a classic, tastefully-updated cottage with all amenities that you'd expect. The home is nestled in a friendly, quiet neighborhood across the street from the lake, trails, ramps and parks. Great location and spot to spend a long weekend, week or whatever you like.
