Charming family home with king bed - private pool - fast wifi - ARCADE

Relax with the whole family at this peaceful property just outside Dallas/Ft Worth. This delightful home sleeps up to 8 and boasts comfy living spaces, a spacious kitchen, and a backyard pool. Mansfield offers the best of both worlds in being close to the big city, minutes from stores and dining, and yet maintaining a small town feel with friendly neighbors and easy to navigate streets. 35 minutes to DFW airport, 25 minutes to Six Flags, 40 minutes to downtown Dallas, 20 minutes to Midlothian and Waxahatchie.

The space
The POOL! The pool is a salt water system and is surrounded by a security fence. It is deepest in the middle at just under 6 ft. The pool is temperature controled to 85 degrees. If the outside temperature drops below 45 degrees the pool heat pump will not be able to keep up. Much of the year the pool is swimable but there are some days (especially in December-February where it is too cold.)
PLEASE NOTE that there is a security camera by the back door that covers the patio and pool area. This is for liability reasons and checking up on our maintenance crews but is not monitored on a regual basis.

The livingroom was designed with comfort in mind with a cozy sectional and a 74" smart TV with Netflix provided. The dining room has seating for 8. The kitchen is stocked with basic amenities and there is bar seating at the island. Off the kitchen is a nice sitting area with a wood burning fireplace and couch. The two player arcade has a huge assortment of games for you to enjoy.
Also on the main floor is a small laundry room and a half bath.

**All the bedrooms are on the second floor** as well as the office (also the 4th bedroom) and the main bathroom. The office has a desk and a day bed with a trundle. The office is open to the livingroom below. The primary bedroom has a king bed, sitting area, and a large onsuite bathroom with a large tub as well as a shower. The two secondary bedrooms have queen beds.

We have 1 gig ethernet connection throughout the house.

The house has been recently updated with guest comfort in mind, including flooring on the second level, fresh paint in many areas, heat pump for pool, and other minor upgrades.
During your stay at this vacation home, you'll be within walking distance of Elmer W. Oliver Nature Park. Free WiFi and a private pool are available in the vacation home.
  • Air-conditioned home with private pool, kitchen, and washing machine
  • Free WiFi
  • Just a 2-minute drive from Elmer W. Oliver Nature Park and a few minutes from Aristide Event Center
This vacation home offers its guests a garden. The front desk is open around the clock.

VRBO NIGHTMARE
STAY AWAY FROM THIS HOUSE!!! Yes, the pictures look great; the house, however, is a complete disaster. Everything in the house is broken and disgusting! I notified the host daily and texted her pictures daily. These are the issues we faced during our 5-day stay: not our garbage overflowing outside with critters getting into it. The whole house was dusty and dirty. Light bulbs burnt out throughout the house. The kitchen was dirty, with stuck-on food on pans and dishes, food on countertops, and grime on the microwave. The living room rug was curled up and a major trip hazard. The grill was filthy. The pool was filthy and disgusting; it had a green film on it. The backyard was dirty and had deflated pool floaties and toys all over. RED LITTLE BUGS EVERYWHERE INSIDE. COCKROACHES spotted in this house! Bathrooms have black mold everywhere. Bathroom sinks are clogged. I’m sure the host will respond, “I offered to send cleaners, but you declined.” You decline anything one time; she thinks her job is done. No empathy, no consideration, and extremely rude! We should have left immediately! This house is a major health concern. I contacted VRBO; they basically just escalate it and will get back to me sometime in the near future. This house needs to be taken off the market due to health code violations! The host also filed a claim on the protection insurance we purchased. Insurance fraud as everything she claimed broken was already damaged and dirty. Save your money, don't stay here!

Long weekend with Family
I had family come in town for their son’s basketball tournament in Mansfield. I live in Fort Worth so we all rented this lovely house to save having to drive back and forth. There was plenty of room for all of us and the location to everything was perfect. We were unable to use the pool due to time and weather but hopefully if this is a yearly thing I wouldn’t hesitate to rent this house again. Owners were extremely nice and very responsive to any communication. The house was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. We all enjoyed our time here and thank them for sharing their beautiful house with us.

Weekend Getaway
First, communication with the property manager was EXCELLENT! Overall impression of the property was favorable. Would definitely recommend this property if your wanting to be within a short driving distance to ATT stadium and the Ft. Worth area. Note: driveway in the online listing is nowhere near that long. (not a game changer!)

Stay
The host was rude, the door would not work half the time. Upon arrival the house was dirty, the pool was dirty, hair in the sink, wrappers underneath the bed. No help at all then wanted money for 2 service dogs which was asked about prior to stay. Tried to be reasonable but would not be reasonable.

Booked this house on my family trip to see a Rangers game, this property was a short drive to globe life stadium! We are a family of 5 and there was more than enough room for us! Nice kitchen. There was a small hiccup in the beginning, but communication with the property owner was fast and issue was taken care of! Really like this place will definitely book again’!

Christy’s home has everything you need for a great stay. The home was clean and well stocked with kitchen essentials, towels, and pool toys/floats. We had a small issue with the lock on the front door, but Christy immediately answered my call and fixed the issue. Check in and check out was easy. Would definitely stay here again!

We came to TX for a family wedding and wanted a place for some down time with the kids. The pool was our deciding factor on this property. Overall had a great stay, few minor hiccups but the owner responded quickly and resolved. Beds were comfortable and plenty of room for the 6 of us to relax and enjoy.

Annual TX Trip
We come down yearly to the area where we used to live to golf and go to some baseball games. We loved the pool as a chance to cool off from the heat. Great few days and way better than a hotel to us. Will return next year hopefully.

Quick family trip
The house was overall very clean and tidy. The pool was great. The lawn was alittle over grown as they had not mowed before our stay. The beds were okay just not comfortable for me and son alittle too firm for us. The owners were very nice and communicated back with any questions we had. We would stay here again if in the area.
