Carrie was very responsive and also very friendly upon arrival, as was her family. The Casita was homey and nestled in the nicely designed backyard of Carrie's house, which we did not expect, but it wasn't a problem. We saw the family a couple times, but this wasn't a problem at all and they were very friendly and inviting. The neighborhood was nice and safe feeling qmongst the surrounding area of oak cliff. The house was full of amenities that we used, and the outside patio and pool area were very nice and relaxing. We enjoyed our stay.
