"Pros: Once at the house, the locations is awesome, right on the water with amazing views of the lake. We liked how it was quiet at night being just a just short walk outside of the "downtown" but very close (5-10 minute walk) to everything in San Marcos. The property was spacious, the house was well stocked with kitchen gear, and having the kayaks available was nice, as was the filtered water. Great views in the evening from the deck, and the upper balconies were a great place to read or catch some sun. We also appreciated the extra towels for use at the lake. Cons: The house could use a bit of upgrades/renovations - some of the furniture was old, lots of spiderwebs etc up high, several lights were not working, a few broken panes of glass, etc. It would have been nice to have a 2nd key or keyless access. `There were lots of ants inside, plus some larger spiders and we even had two scorpions in our bedroom one night! The hot tub was cold on day 1, and only lukewarm on days 2/3/4. The back door (up to 3rd bedroom) could use a deadbolt as it would be an easy place for someone to break in. While not an issue for our group, those traveling with children would appreciate a handrail on the dock stairs. We were also fine with the VERY steep walk from the house up to the street but I could see that being a challenge for some guests - not the easiest access for guests with bad kees/hips, small children, as the walk in and out is tough! Not a place to bring wheeled luggage!!" ~Connor
