We enjoyed our little mini vacation before going our cruise. This house was perfect for our family of 5 to hang around enjoying family time. We had enough room for all of us to sleep. The best part was even tho it’s tiny one the outside, there is plenty of space and we didn’t feel like we were stepping on one another. The next time we will definitely stay here.

Enjoyed the stay! It was exactly what we needed - it was clean and hospitable. Neighbor dogs barking was annoying but I get it. Can’t control that. I needed to look at the room a little closer because one room had the window unit blowing right on the lower bunk bed, which for me was fine. Luckily one of the older ladies I was with, who can’t tolerate the cold, is able to handle the ladder. We worked it out. Not sure what to make of the plant growing through the window into the house. Lol. Overall, we had a good stay.

Really enjoyed our stay. Property was clean and close to everything. Only issue was the living area a/c struggled at times to keep cool during Texas heat but everything else was great. Would definitely stay again.

The property was very clean, and had all amenities needed for our family. It was a short drive to the beach and Seawall!

There was a 40 ounce Old English malt liquor bottle on the curb, along with other trash in the yard. There is a sharp nail or staple sticking up from the wood flooring in the guest room that could seriously lacerate someone’s foot. And only 1 roll of toilet paper for 4 days- definitely not enough. Glad we brought some with us. Most likely (very obvious) illegal activity occurring ALL NIGHT every NIGHT across the street. The dogs next door BARKED ALL DAY AND NIGHT LONG! So no one got any sleep, and my husband was running in the Ironman on Sunday. Unfortunately all of this overshadowed the cute house and comfortable beds. Please be more transparent about the unsafe location, horrible neighbors, barking dogs, and please repair the nail in the floor before someone seriously lacerates their foot.
I rarely leave reviews, but this needs to be addressed.

The property was smaller than I had expected but was very nicely furnished and decorated. There was plenty of parking space for our cars. The neighborhood was not the best with two houses across the street still in bad shape but the ones next to it were nice. The nextdoor neighbor was very nice also. It was too far from both the beach and town to walk but only a short ride in the car. We enjoyed it very much. .

I wanted to find a place to stay as my husband was in ICU. The hosts allowed my 2 cats and 2 dogs to stay with me.
They went above and beyond to help me and I will be forever grateful.
The neighbor is a bit rough looking but the neighbors are fantastic and very friendly.
The home is so easy to live in with everything a person could require for a pleasant stay. They offer a nice little privacy backyard for pets and children with BBQ and chairs.
Very satisfied.

Cute house
Cute little house. Window ac units worked. Lights were on to change filter. Great backyard area for pets.
However there were roaches in the kitchen utensil drawer and shower stall. May need to have treated.
The sofa and side chair had stains.
Beds were great and comfortable.
Overall it was a nice place to stay. The street and location are a bit concerning but i felt comfortable and safe in the house.

This cabin was equipped with all the necessities. Really simple process to book and check in. It was about a mile from the beach which was convenient. A little farther is Stewart Beach which was nice for fur baby. Thanks for a relaxing stay!
Only comment would be that the AC units were a bit on the noisy side but kept the place cool even at 95 degrees outside.

Great weekend at Haft Pint
Went on weekend get away and had an amazing time with our stay. Had a small hick up but nothing that wasn't tended to quickly and friendly! Jerry the maintenance job was so sweet! This little house did not disappoint! And my little service dog really enjoyed the break away from mom in the back yard. Sat outside and got to visit with some of the neighbors who were so friendly. Will def be enjoying this place again!

It is perfect for a small group. The second bedroom was bigger than expected and that helped.

The house itself was cute and clean, and it was nice to have a washer/dryer and full kitchen area. I appreciates the games and dvds for the kids.
The bedroom with the bunk beds has issues with the window holding the AC - the spacer around the unit is broken and so bugs were coming in at night. Someone had attempted to repair it with clear packing tape, but not very well. Because the kids were in there I didn’t notice it until our stay was almost over.
Neighborhood is quiet but we did notice “suspicious activity” and police presence a couple houses down in the evenings. There’s no dedicated parking like a driveway available but we didn’t have trouble finding street parking in front of the house.

Very clean home
This is my 2nd time booking w/ VRBO & the property was just as great as the first! The house was clean, beds were comfy, & it had everything we needed. Loved having an Alexa! Just be aware the neighborhood is very sketchy, if I’d been a single lady staying there I would have been nervous. With that being said we didn’t have any problems except, our last night there my daughter & I came back to the house & the neighbor had driven his car from his side yard & parked in our front yard & snapped the branches from the bushes out front. Not sure if he did it w/ his car or himself. Because of neighborhood I probably won’t stay here again but would rent from this renter again if they have other properties.
