Weekend stay

8/10 overall beautiful location, loved the creek. Great house, awesome place all around. Minus deep cleaning looks like it hasn't been done, just surface cleaning. I went to open the couch to sleep on the pull out couch, bloody napkin etc looks like hasn't been sanitized in a long time. I would definitely recommend staying here, but maybe a new cleaning crew. Also bedroom door never locked properly the whole weekend. Only opened once and never locked afterwards. Thank you 8/10

Property was off the road and quiet. Obviously well maintained and in a convenient location for our trips to torch River marina, Alden, and Bellaire. Apartment had everything needed for a nice stay, except soap and shampoo in the bathroom and shower. While we always carry our own, other guests might not. Washer/dryer and fireplace and jacuzzi were luxury touches enhancing our trip

Quiet Getaway

Stayed here with my parents of 80+ yrs old... they loved sitting on the back deck. The condo is older, but very well maintained. We would stay here again!

Disliked: Cleanliness

Not clean, not healthy

The place had an overall musty smell. Secondary bedroom mattress was broken down and the couple staying with us could not sleep on it. Called Brian about the bedroom and he said he would come out but never did. I called several times after and left messages but no response to phone messages. We had the place for two weeks and could not relax and enjoy our lengthy stay. We all agree that we would never stay here again nor can we recommend it to others.

Peaceful!

We love it in Bellaire and since Covid, it's been hard to find accommodations. We loved the location and the scenery. Close to town but yet had the country feeling. One item to note is that the hot water in the master bath sink was not working.

Relaxing and quiet area

My husband and I spent 4 days at this property, it was exactly as pictured, very clean and well kept. The beds were very comfortable and the view of the creek behind the condo was a plus. Would definitely stay here again if in the area.
