The Neighborhood:
Turtle Creek is a bucolic, pastoral pocket in urban Dallas that is bordered by prestigious Highland Park, Uptown and Oak Lawn neighborhoods. In some ways it defies description; there are mansions on multi-acre lots here, hidden tree-lined streets with quaint homes and condos but much of the area is surrounded by the best shopping and dining in Dallas. There are fine hotels and great restaurants, office buildings, and upscale shopping with both pricey boutiques and quaint gift shops.
Located in the best area in Dallas. Katy Hiking and Bike trail is 1/2 Block away. Walk to the most sought-after restaurants and shopping destinations, The neighborhood is very quiet! I insist out of respect for the neighbors that there is no partying at all. I live on the property and I am a quick phone call away if you need anything. We also have a hired security patrol for our neighborhood,

Concert in Dallas
The place was cute, clean, and quiet. It is also centrally located, which made our visit great! Karen is such a sweet person and a great host! I loved talking with her. On the website, in amenities, it states a hot tub, which there isn't. The beds were very comfortable. I would recommend staying here and we would stay here again! Thank you Karen for a memorable stay!

Great location for all our activities in Dallas. Quiet and safe neighborhood, close to amenities, easy parking and great communication with the owner. Lots of space for four adults to move about. Two big bedrooms with king size beds in each was nice. Highly recommended!

Great location- Charming property
The 1930's duplex has been beautifully restored, boosting a spacious floor plan, located in an exclusive neighborhood near high end shops and restaurants. The owner lives onsite, she was very responsive, yet also respectful of our privacy. It is located on the second floor with it's own entrance and street parking. There is a lot of construction in the area, but noise was a non issue in the evenings. The owner spared no expense when updating the property with all modern amenities, while also maintaining all the historical charm original to the property. The beds were extremely comfortable, high end linens. There were lots of extra supply needs on hand to use, well stocked kitchen and many bathroom vanity products. This unique property was charming and we enjoyed our stay very much. Rent this place, you will not regret it.

Showed up to the house and it was in shambles. The whole house was under construction. I called the manager and she forgot I was coming. How does that even happen. I had to scramble and find a hotel on a busy weekend. SMU graduation and Mother’s Day

Greatly enjoyed four days and nights in a very nice apartment while visiting family in Dallas. The host is very nice, the unit is in a beautiful neighborhood close to restaurants and shopping with easy access to all parts of the Dallas metro area. Will certainly book again for the next time we visit the area.

Great rental near SMU
This rental is in a great area of Dallas, so close to everything! The beds were very comfortable and the space is perfect for 2-4 people. Two things to know, there is a flight of stairs just beyond the front door to reach the apartment and there is no washer and dryer, but there is a washing service available. We were just fine with this, but some families may need this information for planning. The owner lives in the apartment below and was very helpful. It was a great stay in Dallas!

Barking dogs
I Would have given this house 5 starts. However the owner downstairs has 3 dogs who bark non stop all day and into the night. I picked this place to have a peaceful stay and recover from surgery that situation made it very difficult. We also thought we were renting the whole home but you only get the upstairs. Your sharing the property and home with other tenants. The home was very cozy and clean and decorated well. Also in a great area. I would rent again if the dogs were not an issue.
