This large house worked out great for our family group (seven adults) who had traveled to Houston for a wedding. We found the neighborhood a bit more commercial/industrial than we expected but that was okay. The local host, Irshad, was very friendly and responsive. The beds were very comfortable and it was so nice that each bedroom had an attached bathroom. The kitchen was large and well-equipped with high-end appliances and plenty of pots, pans and casserole dishes for preparing meals as needed there. But there were some odd things too: plenty of dishes and coffee mugs but not enough silverware or glasses. We went to Goodwill and purchased wine glasses, because there were none. There were no kitchen linens provided - no dish towels, and not a single hot pad or oven mitt! I realized this only after I had a pan of hot food in the oven! (We used a bath towel.) Also, a note to families traveling with small children: each of the bedrooms has a nice bathroom, but all have showers only, no tubs. And only three towels and three washcloths provided per bedroom, so if you have kids with you, that might not be enough. Worked out fine for us, though, and yes, I would recommend this house to others who want to stay in the Briar Forest area!
