Historic House Across From UMHB & 3 Miles to Expo

No detail has been spared in making this 2-bedroom, 2-bath 1925 cottage the perfect home-away-from-home in downtown Belton. Aside from the ultra-convenient location (just a short walk from campus) you'll love the private fenced-in backyard with patio and at-home comforts like high-speed internet and a soaking tub. Choose to spend your days relaxing in the backyard, exploring campus & downtown, or cruising the waters at Lake Belton. The house is located in the historic district, a short walk to campus & downtown. The neighborhood has beautiful old houses, is safe, and quaint. There is a railroad a few blocks over but it’s not very noticeable.

Exceptional Stay
What a beautiful home and what wonderful hosts! The house is a quaint and classic representation of what homes used to be but very beautifully updated. The property was very well cleaned and communication with the host was spectacular. We were in the area for 5 nights and we enjoyed every minute of it. The location is also a plus. It is very close to the grocery store and easily accessible to anything else you may need.

Cutest house ever!
We very much enjoyed our stay at this super cute historic house! From the beginning the owners were very accommodating. The house is super clean and cozy. As we stay in rentals fairly often, I really appreciated the attention to detail…like labeling light switches and having coffee and the fixings supplied. Would not hesitate to book this rental again with my family!

Excellent Home and Host!
The location is perfect, quiet and close to everything you need/want. The house is older and has been beautifully remodeled. The host was very attentive and anticipated what we needed for a comfortable stay. We plan on staying again when we return!

Weekend Stay
My husband and I spent the weekend, along with my parents, to attend a wedding. This was a very comfortable home with any amenities we could need. Beds and furniture were comfortable and everything was clean and well-maintained. I especially appreciated that coffee supplies were provided. Other places I’ve stayed did not include that.

Amazing property
I travel to Temple/Belton frequently for work. I really enjoyed my stay here. Accommodations were exactly as described, and I loved being able to cook meals and have space to relax after a long day. Space was extremely clean and smelled amazing. It’s literally right across from UMHB and I felt safe taking a walk each evening on campus. Can’t wait to book again next time I am in the area. This will definitely be one of my go to places to stay.

Stressful stay
Overall, our stay at this house was disappointing. The location near the train station made it incredibly noisy, and the vibrations from passing trains shook the house. The lock didn't work properly, and we arrived to find the living room window unlocked, which raised security concerns. Additionally, there was leftover trash on the living room furniture upon our arrival. One of the most frustrating issues was the loss of water pressure at one point, which prevented us from flushing toilets, causing significant inconvenience. On a positive note, the beds were comfortable, offering a decent night's sleep despite the challenges.

Great Stayq
We will definitely stay here again if given the opportunity. This place was clean, had plenty of room for our family (3 young kids) and was reasonably priced. It met all of our needs and even had a small container of toys which entertained kids in the evening before bed time. We appreciate how well kept this place was and hope others enjoy it as much as we did.
