Family trip

We have stayed here a couple of other times. It's a good location for visiting our family. The owner is very responsive to communications. The house has comfortable beds but the rest of the furniture is not very comfortable for relaxing with coffee or just sitting to have conversation time. There is some updating needed such as a new towel ring and toilet paper dispenser in the smaller bathroom. Overall, we enjoyed having a house with enough room for our family to spread out.

Sports weekend

We came to see our student and go to the football and soccer games. The location was great, on a quiet street. The house was fantastic, modern kitchen and the most comfortable beds. Plenty of seating options for us.

Great location

The Perky Pineapple is a great location for getting to the Tech campus and shopping around town. The neighborhood is quiet. Beds are comfortable and the house is spacious to spread out. It was nice to bring in dinner to the large dining table and have a couple of my local family members join us. This is the second time my family has stayed at the home, and the owner is very good about quick replies and addressing any concerns.

Beautiful Home!

We loved our stay at the Perky Pineapple. The home was spacious and perfect for our weekend stay in Lubbock. Owner was responsive and the master bed was very comfortable. Note: Double check the address with the address provided by the owner. VRBO provided the wrong address. I can only imagine the poor neighbors watching us try to get into their house.

Great house to celebrate TTU graduation!

The Perky Pineappke was the perfect place for us to celebrate our son’s graduation from Texas Tech University! The rooms were spacious, the beds were super-comfy, the kitchen was well-equipped, and the decor was so fun! We also greatly enjoyed the outdoor space for grilling, hanging out and throwing the football around. Sheila was awesome and so responsive to my questions. We hope to return again next year for our other son’s graduation!

About the host

Hosted by Sheila Moran

Host profile image
A Texas gal. I’ve been in the real estate business for over 33 years.

I love rehabbing projects and everything that goes with it. I also love meeting new people & travel so it’s fitting that I host properties where I’m best suited.

I've taken the time to make sure The Perky Pineapple has everything that you would want in a home "away" from home!

Hope you enjoy!

Why they chose this property

I bought this property because of its flexibility. I like the neighborhood that it was situated in, the corner lot and I fell in LOVE with the backyard, the arbor & covered patio. It also has a rear separate apartment that I have full time guests in, but rest assured, they have their own entrance and do not have use of the backyard at all.

What makes this property unique

One of my favorite places in this home is the backyard. The birds come almost all day if you sit and listen under the covered patio.
