Our Thanksgiving stay at the Pratt Estate was very enjoyable. With family coming in from all over the country we had as many as 8 people staying at the house and it didn't feel crowded. And when there were only the 3 of us, the house felt way too big — I wouldn't stay here with less than 5 or 6.

The location can't be beat. From the house it's only about a minute to Loop 1 which gets you anywhere you want to go. Mayfield Park, one of my favorites on Earth, is within walking distance.

Probably the best thing about the place is the host, Virginia. We mention coffee and coffee magically appears. We *think* firewood, and firewood magically appears. She stays in the "casita" next door but never made herself seem intrusive or nosy.

The pool looked very clean however we never used it because it was too cold.

The bed in the master bedroom was very comfy and we slept soundly each night.

The only negative feedback:
- There are places in the living room (carpet) that smell like cat pee. I'm sure this can be cleaned up.
- Much of the house is lacking in windows/sunlight and the lights need to be on during the day, at least this time of the year. If you thrive on sunlight and bright spaces you might want to consider this.
