Mark was an outstanding host to my family and I. Anytime I had a question he responded immediately with the right answer. Mark and the location of the house made our vacation very enjoyable.

Huge home near UT Rio Grande Valley
Loved: Spacious home to accommodate family of 14 including kids age 4-17. Covered parking. Mark was a good host. Any questions we had, he answered quickly. Thank you for addressing the A/C issue before we arrived. Enjoyed the heated pool. Disliked: Mosquitoes. Outdoor Jacuzzi wouldn’t heat or didn’t work. Needs improvement: There was enough dish soap to wash 1 nights dishes. The soap in the clear glass dispenser in the kitchen was not for making dish water. There was no Rinse Agent (Jet Dry or other brand) for the dishwasher which made it hard to clean when using the dishwasher. Some dishes had to be hand washed after cleaning cycle. There were no TV’s in any of the four bedrooms. There were 2 TV’s in the whole house. The TV in the play room had to be turned off and on numerous times before it would allow signal to Play Station. Could be that the Internet is too far from the room or TV is old. The master bath suite needs bigger towels and should have at least 6 towels (face, hand, dry) of each size in it. The jacuzzi in the master bath didn’t work only serves as a tub. It would be nice if there were at least two long mirrors in the home (over the door in bathrooms).

Golf trip of 8 adults
The house was spacious, easy access to many locations. The owner was easy to communicate. Kitchen was adequately stocked. One TV not connected to cable, apps or subscriptions needed.
The pool never reached a temperature acceptable to swim in. Same issue with spa, temperature never reached a acceptable "hot tub" temperature.
The ironing board is a table top ironing board.

Church group Recovery Revival & Relaxation
The house was beautiful and very clean. We had plenty of room for our group of 8 people ages 38-77. We had plenty of room to move, sleep & relax between church services. I hope to stay in Mr. Mark’s house again next year.
