Dallas stay
House was nice and big, the downstairs couch was the most comfortable couch I’ve ever been on! Been asking my wife to find the couch for our home! The pool needed to be cleaned but only because a storm came in before we arrived and the pool is next to woods. The management team got the pool cleaned next day. We will be staying again.

Beautiful home overall!!
It was perfect for the 9 in our family! Host was very receptive to answer questions we had! A little note might be don’t forget your mosquito spray as you are in Texas and close to a lake. Also, if you plan on using the grill, you might check with the host prior to make sure it has propane.

Fantastic family friendly home
The house was immaculate with plenty of indoor and outdoor space. The pool is safely secured behind a gate, keeping my curious grandsons safe. Lots of privacy with a lush greenbelt behind the house. Price was very affordable compared to putting my entire troop in hotel rooms and eating our. Great hosts. Great communication!

Uneasy stay
Property manager mistrusting of guests. Wants info about your family yet doesn't even reveal their name which we found very creepy. We were uneasy the entire stay. You also have to send a selfie or you wont get the check in instructions. The property was okay and in a nice neighborhood. No tv remote in the movie room so its useless. Will avoid any properties handled by Goldnest in the future. I prefer being treated like a guest and not a reckless renter. Hope future guests have a better experience.

Great house for multi generation famuly
We, grandparents and two couples along with two, two year old granddaughters, had a wonderful time. We all came from Washington state to attend a family wedding. There were enough bedrooms and bathrooms for each of the three couples. The management were very gracious to provide a second crib. The pool was fun to use. There was a great movie room with a arcade style pack man game the couples had fun challenging each other. The kitchen was well stocked with a nice variety of spices. If we have another family event in Dallas we will definitely want to book this house again.

Beautiful Home Not Well Kept
Pool not maintained well, balcony rail not stable, staircase rail not stable, most games missing pieces, sound in movie room has short, no hairdryers when first arrived, one was sent in 36 hours, master bedroom bed has box spring broken on one side, no dish towels or pool towels supplied, no propane to run grill, which was too dirty anyway, broken glass in kitchen glass, and the chairs stained and cave in when you sit in them, and not clean. That being stated, the home is beautifully remodeled, the kids loved it, but not worth the money. Asher did respond to us but not as supportive as I would have liked. He was even accusatory at one point, asking if we had more people than stated because we wanted more towels. We just washed the towels during the stay. The toilet in the master bath is gross around the bottom. This was our experience as honestly as I can state it.

Perfect summer stay-cation spot
Wonderful open floor plan on the first floor allowed for a relaxing pre-summer stay-cation in Dallas. The couch was extremely comfortable and the large windows allowed for the feel of being outdoors with out the bugs. It took us a while to figure out how to open the garage doors from the garage buttons, but once we figured it out no issues.

Comfortable & Convenient
This is a beautiful home nestled in a lovely area with quick access to I30; but, still walking distance to the lake. Home backs up to a beautiful ravine with walking/running paths & has all the upgraded finishes. Our family was very comfortable here and all interactions with property manager were professional & very timely responses. I would recommend this home to friends and family in the future.
