A total gem!
This place is settled perfectly in a beautiful neighborhood! So much private outdoor space that my dogs absolutely loved! The interior is decorated and tech wired phenomenally! The entire stay was so homey and comfortable, we didn’t want to leave! Hosts are amazing and provide all the necessities plus some! Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay! The fur babies loved it as did the human guests!

Perfect Little Bungalow!
Jonathon is a very gracious host. Anything you need or have questions about he is immediately available. We needed a place to stay for a month when our house sold quickly. This was a perfect interim space to stay. Great location with easy access to freeway and walkable to the park. It is very dog friendly and has a great front patio. We can't thank Jonathon enough for being so wonderful!

Perfect home away from home!
We had a wonderful time staying in Gingerbread Casa over the holidays, for a full 2 months. Our hosts couldn't have been more gracious and helpful, and the house itself is equipped with all anyone could need even for such a lengthy stay. The location is ideal, in the midst of the charming and historic Woodland Heights area, within easy walking distance of dozens of shops, restaurants, parks, and other attractions, and just a short drive to downtown and Houston's wonderful museums. We plan on returning soon and can't imagine staying anywhere else!

About the host

Hosted by Property Manager/Owner

Host profile image
Born and raised in the Houston area. Love this city!

Why they chose this property

You will find that it is a very well maintained and updated home. Nice hanging in closets for all your clothes that you may need. The living room has a nice 7 speaker surround sound system and comfortable sofa and chair. The AV equipment is networked to all of the televisions. Dimmers throughout the home allow you to get the mood you want. The home has a nice front porch to relax and unwind on.

What makes this property unique

I stay in the detached apartment behind the home. Guests have comfort knowing that if you need something like a cup of sugar or a light bulb changed I'm close by to get it taken care of in a swift manner.
