Extremely fun and cozy lake house with good fishing and a nice modern home for your family get away. I really like that they are fellow pet lovers so my pups had a good time as well. They provide everything you need to make it feel like your home. Great get away. Will definitely be back! 5/5

Explore our Houston, TX, vacation rentals

Whether you’re here for business or pleasure, your Houston vacation home is waiting to welcome you. While sometimes overshadowed by its flashier neighbors Dallas and Austin, Houston remains a popular place to visit and live for good reason. This massive metropolis is quite diverse and holds all kinds of culture, food, and entertainment. Plus, it’s only a day trip away from the coast. 

During your stay in Houston, explore the city’s nearly endless array of restaurants and attractions, with options for family-friendly activities like the Houston Zoo, Houston’s Museum District, and Minute Maid Park, home of the Astros. For more of the outdoors, hit the golf course, stroll Memorial Park or Houston Botanical Garden, or take a day trip to Galveston for fun by the water.

Where is Houston?

While the Houston area sprawls for dozens of miles, Houston proper occupies a radius of about 10 miles, with a huge, bustling downtown at its center. It’s a little over a hundred miles to the Louisiana border from your Houston rental, and only 50 miles to Galveston, a popular weekend beach trip from the city. Many Houston-area residents live in suburbs like Tomball, The Woodlands, and Sugar Land. While the summers here are certainly hot, Houston residents bask in mild winters, sans any pesky ice or snow.
