Great place to stay if you are in the area! Convenient to everything. Quiet neighborhoods

I can’t say enough about my experience with Becky.. She was an angel when we were desperate to find a place that day. We also needed it for a minimum of 2 weeks waiting not close on our new home. Becky was so kind and helpful. She made a very stressful situation so much better!!

Charming Location

This comfortably housed my husband and myself along with two adult sons. The amenities were very good with bedside tables, power stations for plug-ins, a well equipped kitchen and easy parking. We loved the location near downtown Tomball and enjoyed several good restaurants nearby. Our only wish would be for a smart TV to have been able to stream movies. But we appreciated the cable for local news. Thank you Becky and Frank!

Family Reunion

Upon stepping inside the home, it felt like home. Our grandson immediately noticed the desk with all the hookups needed and was so excited. The house was fabulous and clean. I have 6 siblings in the Houston area, and it was so convenient to go visit, while still having our own space to return to, complete with all the needed supplies. Old Tomball is an adorable, quaint little town to stroll, but not on Monday, because 95% of the shops are closed on Monday. We are hoping to continue our Reunion annually, and will definitely be reaching out to Frank and Becky for our return visits. The Thompsons are very attentive to the needs of their homes and could not be nicer people. We very much recommend their Tomball home.

Best kept secret

Check in with owner present was very helpful. Lots of room. Great fenced in yard for our dogs. We enjoyed walking our dogs in the neighborhood. Safe location. Went to Tomball, TX for a conference at Joan Hunter Ministries. This home was less then 10 minutes to the conference location. Great restaurants within a short drive. I would happily stay in this home again. It is better than described.
