Memories made
My sister, nephew, and mom all met here bc we had tickets to the Harry Potter Forbidden Forest Experience. She lives in Georgetown and we live in Houston. This was the absolutely perfect place to meet. Large, spacious, quiet, just what we needed. The porch was my favorite. We’re already planning a trip back.

Huge Place
If you need room for the kids to run this is the place to go. Spacious home and large outdoor porches and play areas. Host left everything perfect and meticulously clean. Would definitely stay again.

Didn't get a chance to stay
After a 5 hour drive we arrived at the Gaviota Home around 5:30 pm, just to find out that the property hadn't been cleaned, the bed in the master bedroom was unmade, there was not toilet paper in the bathroom. We contacted the host and, after apologizing, said that she was going to send someone to clean the property but that it would take 2 hours, so asked us to come back around 8 pm. We left the property and about 20 minutes later I got a call from her saying that there was an issue with the water in the house and that she was going to cancel the reservation. She offered to pay for dinner and some extra and was very apologetic. I have 3 little kids so it was a huge inconvenience for us. Needless to say after this experience we'll think twice about booking through VRBO again.

Cute & Cozy
This is a very cute and cozy place. Great place for those with littles. Very kid friendly and provides toys for various ages and baby accessories.They had new quality towels and plenty for a large family. The only thing that could have made it any better was to have additional cookware when cooking for a family all weekend. I highly recommend this place and will be back again!

Great House! Nice & Tucked Away
We loved our stay. The house was perfect. It’s on a good amount of land, so no neighbors in sight. The trails on the property were a nice perk. The house was exactly as advertised & we were greeted with some extras that made it just that much better. Would definitely stay here again if we are back in the neighborhood!
