The Home

Designed for the
way you travel.

Spindletree wasn't converted into a short-term rental — it was built to be one. Every detail was chosen with guests in mind: premium linens on every bed, fiber-grade Wi-Fi throughout, a private upstairs lounge for the moments you need to slow down, and an outdoor space designed to be used year-round.

The location was deliberate. Sterling Ridge is one of The Woodlands' founding villages — mature pines, a quiet street, no through-traffic. Twelve minutes to Market Street. Thirteen to Hughes Landing and the Cynthia Woods Pavilion. Fifteen to Houston Methodist. Thirty to George Bush Intercontinental via the Hardy Toll Road. Close to everything that draws travelers to The Woodlands; far enough to feel removed from the city.

Whatever brings you to The Woodlands, the home meets you where you are. Four bedrooms, two-and-a-half baths, a heated pool with a built-in jacuzzi, a fully fenced backyard with a covered summer kitchen, a chef-equipped kitchen ready for anything, and the small luxuries that distinguish a hosted stay: Texas pecan coffee waiting on the counter, a kid-ready pantry, blackout drapery in the primary, and motion-sensing lighting that welcomes you home.

Rated 4.93 across 117 verified stays. Recognized as an Airbnb Guest Favorite. Come see the difference.

A Closer Look

The Spaces

Six spaces, each designed with a different kind of stay in mind. Walk through the home as a guest would.

01

The Great Room

An open-concept gathering space.

Soaring ceilings, an oversized sectional, and tall sliding doors that open onto the patio and pool. The seamless flow between living, dining, kitchen, and outdoors is what transforms a stay into a vacation — and what keeps guests returning.

SeatingSectional for 6+
Entertainment55″ streaming smart TV
FlowDirect pool & patio access
02

The Chef's Kitchen

From morning coffee to a dinner party.

Stainless steel appliances, a gas range, and a generous island with seating for four. A full coffee bar with Keurig, drip, and locally-roasted Texas pecan coffee on the house. The pantry arrives stocked with the essentials so you can settle in without a grocery run.

A private retreat on the ground floor.

A spacious main-floor suite with a king bed dressed in premium linens, a generous walk-in closet, and an en-suite bathroom appointed with a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and double vanity. Blackout drapery and a quiet street put mornings entirely on your terms.

Three Upstairs Bedrooms

Thoughtful sleeping for eight.

Two queen bedrooms and a twin-twin room, all upstairs and all generously sized — no afterthoughts, no compromises. Each has its own closet, premium bedding, and a full bath shared between the three. Built for families and groups who care about where everyone sleeps.

The Upstairs Lounge

A second living space, all to itself.

A bright, open lounge anchored by a 75″ smart TV, a sectional made for movie nights, and abundant natural light. Equally at home as a family theater, a quiet work corner, or the spot where the kids set up shop while the adults entertain downstairs.

Things to Do

Our hand-picked Woodlands guide.

The Woodlands is a planned community north of Houston, woven through 28,000 acres of preserved pine forest, with Market Street, the Waterway, and the Cynthia Woods Pavilion all a short drive from the house. These are the places we send friends and family — most within fifteen minutes, the rest worth the drive.

Why Book Direct

A better rate.
A direct relationship.

Reserve directly with the host and save the 14–18% guest service fee that platforms add to every booking. Same home. Same hospitality. A noticeably better total.

We've hosted on Airbnb since the day the listing went live and we appreciate the platform's reach — but the service fees add up across multi-night stays. Booking direct means you get the better rate, we get a direct line of communication, and returning guests earn credit toward their next stay. A more personal arrangement on both sides.

💵

Up to 15% Off

No platform service fees. The same nightly rate, a notably better final total.

🤝

Direct Communication

Speak with the host and property manager directly — no scripts, no chatbots, no middlemen.

🎁

Returning-Guest Credit

Stay with us once, and your next reservation comes with a credit toward your trip.

"Perfect stay for us! The place is super clean and just like the pictures, the pool is relaxing and it was ready for us to use. We were 8 people and had kids and everyone enjoyed the stay and slept comfortably. It is conveniently located such there is plenty nearby but also enough privacy. Valeria was responsive and very helpful. We loved it and when we come back to Houston, TX we will sure have this as first pick."

"I had an amazing experience at this Airbnb in Houston! The property was clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described. The highlight was definitely the beautiful pool, which was perfect for relaxing and cooling off after a day exploring the city. The host was incredibly hospitable and responsive, ensuring that we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was convenient, with easy access to local attractions and restaurants. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay in Houston!"

FAQ

Quick answers.

When can I check in and check out?
Standard check-in is 4:00 PM and check-out is 11:00 AM. Self check-in via smart lock — no awkward key handoffs. If you're arriving late or need flexibility, just ask; we'll do our best to accommodate.
Are pets allowed?
Pets are considered on a case-by-case basis. We have a fenced backyard, but we ask that you message us before booking with details about your pet — size, breed, temperament — so we can confirm a good fit. A small pet fee applies if approved. Two-pet maximum.
Is the pool heated?
Yes — heated October through April. Texas summers don't really need it, but in shoulder seasons it makes a real difference.
How fast is the Wi-Fi?
400+ Mbps symmetric fiber. The office has a dedicated Ethernet port if your video call is mission-critical. We've never had a guest's work setup not work.
Is there a minimum stay?
Two nights for most dates, three nights on Pavilion concert weekends, Ironman, and major holidays. Reach out if you need a one-night stay; we'll let you know if we can flex.
Do you offer monthly rates for extended stays?
Yes — 30% off for stays of 28+ nights. Great fit for medical stays at Houston Methodist The Woodlands, corporate relocations, and traveling professionals. Ask about a custom monthly contract.
What's your cancellation policy?
Full refund up to 30 days before check-in. 50% refund up to 14 days before. Within 14 days, the booking is non-refundable. We're reasonable about life happening — if you need to reschedule, talk to us.
Is the house safe for kids and seniors?
Yes — we keep a crib, pack-n-play, and high chair on-site. The pool is fenced. One bedroom is on the main floor for guests who'd rather not navigate stairs.
Who do I contact if there's an issue during the stay?
Our property manager, Ricardo Diaz, is your on-the-ground contact for anything that needs attention at the house — maintenance, the smart lock, Wi-Fi, A/C, the pool. Call or text him at 713-540-1240.
