Beware of units allowing pets!
Over the past 20 years of using VRBO this was the worst experience ever! The unit was dirty and flea infested. Would not stay here again.

Good last minute rental.
We came to town for a funeral. Wanted some space for family to come over after ceremony so we didn’t want a hotel room. This little cottage was perfect. It was cool and very comfortable. Property manager was accommodating for this last minute rental. We were thankful we found this.

Great location, great house and great owners!
Our family of 4 + 2 pups stayed here for one night and it was a great house. The living room and kitchen all flows nicely as the house itself square footage wise may seem smaller, but the open spaces work great. The location is fantastic right off 75 and within a mile of downtown. The only negative I had was having to park in the street but the street is not crazy so no big deal. All in all for a family with younger kids or a couple works great. The guest bedroom is a daybed with trundle but our oldest opted for the couch. Master has great space and 2 full baths was great. The owners were supper easy to work with direct via text (assuming you can call as well). All in all for the price, location and pet friendly we thought is was perfect! Thanks so much for everything Lee and Janet great place!!!

Enjoyed our stay very much
The nicely upgraded bungalow is close to everything. Our stay was very comfortable. Would definitely stay there again. There is only on-street parking but that kinda comes with older neighborhoods and did not present a problem. The owner was very flexible and accommodating and responded quickly to messages. A+

Clean home and well maintained.
We needed a place to stay near downtown McKinney for a wedding that we were attending. It is in a good location with nearby shops for convenience. The only issue is that on the listing, it states that it sleeps 8. This is far from the truth. The home has two bedrooms...1 king bed, 1 day bed and a trundle bed. At most, this place can accommodate 4-5 ppl, comfortably. This home is truly set up for one family with a couple children, not 4+ adults. Also, don’t plan to have much parking as you’re asked park on the street bc of guest house needing driveway access.

Comfortable Quaint Cottage
We spent two nights with Eleanor and thoroughly enjoyed our visit!!
The cottage is totally redone and very comfortable. It was a great place to come home to after shopping downtown in McKinney. Just blocks from the square. We hope to visit again!
