We really enjoyed our stay at this house in Brookland near the Sam Rayburn Reservoir.
The house has a lovely outdoor area. The back porch is covered, with 2 ceiling fans and a really nice grill. In addition to the porch, there are two seating areas in the yard, one with a fire pit. The backyard looks out on the golf course, a lot of trees and greenery, and a beautiful little pond. It was very quiet and peaceful, and we loved the sound of the wind chimes.
If it’s hot outside and you prefer to stay in the air conditioning, the house has a wall of windows that looks out on the backyard. There are no blinds or curtains on the windows, so it brings the outside to you. The house is positioned on the lot so the side of the house with all the windows doesn’t get direct sunlight in the morning or evening, so it does not cause the temperature inside to rise.
My husband enjoys being outside, so he enjoyed taking a walk around the golf course each day. There is a very nice golf cart path you can walk around in the evening after the golfers have finished playing.
There is a good-sized, well-equipped kitchen. They have a whole house filter along with filtered water by the kitchen faucet and filtered ice and water from the refrigerator. Bring your own coffee (ground, not K-pods), no filters needed. All the tools we needed for cooking were provided.
The owner was very responsive to our needs and was a pleasure to work with.
