Notes from the host
Mayfield
Summary:
There are certain things that are absolutely essential in great accommodation. It should be the perfect spot to rest and rejuvenate in between sight-seeing/activities. It should be close to the attractions but also allow for some privacy. It should have enough space and the necessary amenities for your group. It should be comfortable and clean. At the same time, it should feel luxurious and provide an escape. And if it has a pool, then that’s even better! Well, this home checks all those boxes.
The Space:
Our home caters to both short term and medium term stays, making it an excellent choice for corporate housing needs. Whether you find yourself temporarily displaced from your home or require accomodations for your team during an extended project in our area, we provide a welcoming and comfortable "home away from home" experience.
Welcome to your 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath vacation home! With a modern look and all the comforts of a regular home, you’ll have the best of both worlds. You’ll delight in the lovely finishes and stunning interior décor, from the lighting to the furniture, to the flooring. You’ll get a truly luxe vibe as you kick back and relax. Whether your trip is full of activities or you’re simply having a relaxing getaway, this is the perfect spot for you, your family, and friends.
Our boutique designer home offers a covered garage for you to park your vehicles away from the hot sun. As you come in, you’ll be greeted by a bright, open, and airy living area. The living room has large windows, vaulted ceilings, and a beautiful fireplace. This huge space is the ideal spot to gather around with everyone as you watch TV, unwind on the couches, and make some memories. There is also a formal dining area leading into the long, beautiful galley kitchen. It offers lots of counter space and cabinets and is fully equipped. If you get tired of eating out all the time, you’ll enjoy whipping up a delicious meal in your very own fully equipped kitchen. The kitchen leads into a charming breakfast area, another perfect spot to enjoy your meal.
The 5 bedrooms are spacious and provide enough room for everyone. The furniture and linens will allow you to get a superb night’s rest. The master bedroom also features doors leading out to the yard, allowing tons of natural light to flow in. In addition to a powder room, you’ll have access to 2 equally spacious bathrooms. You’ll really enjoy taking a shower in here as the huge shower is so big, you could dance in it if you wanted to! Just like the rest of the home, the bathrooms include gorgeous finishes throughout.
As if all of that wasn’t enough, we still have to visit the backyard. Fenced in for complete privacy and with tall shrubs surrounding it, you’ll feel like you’re in our own little private oasis. There is a lovely oblong pool that glitters under the sun and lots of patio space around to lay back and soak up the rays. And last but not least, a BBQ grill for you to toast a Texan burger and more.
in terms of sleeping arrangement: The master bedroom has a lavish king bed. The second and third bedroom offers the same with queens. The fourth and fifth bedrooms have both queen bed and bunkbed each to allow all kinds of groups or kids/adults (*please note: the fifth bedroom will be opened only for groups of 12+ guests).
