A rural wetlands part of my hometown, in suburban Houston! Taken in December. And my 1st ever post here of my hometown. You've seen my travel photos and you've seen my new city Kirov, Russia. So here is suburban Houston :). And some of the beautiful wetlands and marshes! I grew up and lived almost all my life in the crowded suburbs, but this park is a quite rural and isolated part! Quite idyllic :). It's at the Armand Bayou Nature Center in southeast Houston. I was home for the holidays and my dad and I went to the park :). I haven't been to this park in many years! It's surreal how much wilderness is here, as it's in the middle of a typical American suburb. Albeit one with a lot of history and economic importance (NASA, oil refineries, etc).. It was a peaceful late autumn walk! Even though it is technically the winter season ;). But autumn begins & finishes late here!

And I love the scene here with the red marsh! One of my favorite parts of the park! And so much other great wetlands! The 2,500-acre (10 km2) nature center is the largest urban wilderness preserve in the United States. Founded in 1974, the center consists of a boardwalk through forest and marshes, live animal displays, bison and prairie platforms and butterfly gardens.

"We really enjoyed our stay, and we recommend this property to anyone who is looking for a place to stay in the Houston area! There are a lot of great places to visit and eat around this property. The beds are so comfortable. I will say that if you plan on cooking, purchase paper towels and some kitchen essentials. If you like wine, you may need a corkscrew. Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay! Thank you Glen for helping us feel welcome! "

"My high school astronomy club members and two chaperones and I stayed at this place during our spring break trip to Houston to see the space center and Galveston. Regarding location and traffic, it was perfect for where we needed to get to. Being able to see the constellations from the pier and the back yard was amazing, and the sunrises were beautiful! We did have some issues with damaged beds from previous renters, but the host got that cleared up right away. Communication was excellent. ...

"my sister and I enjoyed our stay at this property. it was very comfortable, homey but modern, close to a lot of restaurants, markets, concerts, and the airport. definitely need a car in this part of town but we found parking easily every night. btw the check in info gets sent via email from a personal email. lowkey ignored the email initially because it looked like a scammy one but the owner was quick to respond when we arrived and was very helpful. "

"Stayed 2 nights during the Houston Open. Enjoyed the stay. Very clean unit. Owner was very responsive and flexible with our check-in and check-out times. Some utility work/construction in front of the unit but this was out of the control of the owner. Thank you and will book it again next year. "

"What a great stay ! Check in and out was incredibly fast and easy. The house resembled all pictures posted. We would recommend this home"

"I went here on a retreat with 8th graders. The property was clean and well prepared. The recreational equipment was all in good order. The kitchen was adequate for cooking feeding a large group. The place would also be excellent for a reunion site. The decking, chairs and outside was spectacular with abundant seating areas in great condition."

"Great little place, big fenced in yard, very cozy. Just a great place to stay and very quiet. We loved it!!! We will be back!!!"

"Great space !"

"The house itself is great for a larger family and located just about 25 minutes from Space Center. We stayed after a new house cleaner and unfortunately it was less than ideal for cleanliness (floors covered in debris, dirty linens, bathroom had hair on tub, etc). I immediately reached out to the host and Monica was quick to respond and sought to make our stay a positive one. Overall, the house had plenty of seating and places for everyone to sleep. Two full baths was great. Neighborhood was...
