If you’ve been to Houston before, you might think of the River Oaks area as an upper-class residential area without even realizing there are many unique vacation spots.
I know the first few times I visited Houston, it never even crossed my mind to visit.
However, during a work stay a couple of years back, my office had chosen my hotel for me, which just happened to be in the center of River Oaks. Oh my God! I was impressed.
I returned a few months later for a comfortable stay where I could savor the surroundings. It’s also how I have acquired an unusually vast knowledge of all of the Airbnb’s in River Oaks.
