This cozy home was perfect for my husband, son and I during NSC. Great location. We loved the open ceiling and lil touches throughout the home. Look forward to staying again on our visits to A&M.
Excellent location for everything fire school, Aggieland and restaurants or bars!! The property was very clean and we loved having the backyard. The property manager was extremely accommodating and did everything she could to make our stay even better!! We will definitely book again!
Everything we needed was there, in the kitchen and otherwise. The TV and the streaming apps were easy to access which made our stay much more enjoyable. The proximity to A&M was outstanding. Thanks for a great stay!

Clean
The house was clean and beds were comfortable. We found the main coach needed to be replaced, sitting on springs.
We greatly enjoyed our stay! It is very close to campus and all our favorite restaurants. The train didn't bother us at all even being right across the street. We would definitely stay here again!
Needed a place to stay for a weekend of watching our nieces softball tournament. This house was conveniently located and had nice rooms that accommodated the 3 of us. Living room/kitchen were cozy and back porch was great to sit outside and unwind.
Great little house, well appointed with everything you need. Easy check-in and check-out. Other reviews note the noise from the train and traffic but it didn't bother us at all. We had a good time on an anniversary getaway, but with the house in the shadow of Kyle Field it's an obvious win for any Aggie fan. Loved it, would stay again!
This was perfect for our stay where we had competitions at Texas A&M campus over a few days. It is so close! It is very well stocked with everything you might need. The host was very responsive and accommodating to our needs. I highly recommend.
This is a great house and super easy to walk to Kyle Field/campus. The house is clean and the kitchen is well equipped. Just a note that the house is small and if you are a light sleeper, bring ear plugs! It’s right next to the train tracks!
We came in just for one night to look at places for our incoming freshman to live off campus. The house is just as it says and had plenty of room for all 5 of us. It was a little musky throughout and the ceiling in the living room is interesting for sure. It was fairly clean minus a few dead bugs and the backyard is great for pets! If you are a light sleeper be sure to bring ear plugs or a noise machine as it is close to a busy main road and the train tracks - train runs at night too but doesn’t blow its horn. Master bed sinks in the middle so for two people it was a little uncomfortable.

Stay in College Station
Everything about this place was wonderful. the lack of communication is the real problem. I couldn't get in touch with the host for most of the trip to college station. Afterward, everything was great.
Stayed here 3 nights with two dogs and my college age daughter. Property is updated, a few blocks from campus just off Wellborn. Plenty of parking. Backyard is large and fenced. There is an interesting combination of window A/C units and central air. Wi-Fi works well. TVs are fine except I couldn’t get TV in one of the bedrooms to work. Not sure if it was an issue of the remote or TV itself or me. Couple of things though….kitchen supplies/utensils/cookware is badly worn and in need of updating. There is No vent fan or light for stove/oven. There are a couple of uncovered/exposed nails/carpet staples leading into the bedrooms. Be careful if barefoot. Not sure if it’s simply this unit or the city but mosquitoes are an issue. Finally, I wish the bbq grill was gas instead of charcoal. This Did not use. Would I rent again….probably.

Coronavirus Trip
Unfortunately for us we made a trip for a tournament being held at A&M. We came in Wednesday night, played Thursday and then everything was cancelled without a refund due to the Coronavirus. Our stay was suppose to end Sunday. We tried to contact the VRBO owner about us leaving early and if a refund was possible. That was Friday, and I’ve never heard anything to this day. I understand it’s unprecedented with the virus causing so much uncertainty. Also I didn’t purchase trip insurance so it’s most likely not possible. On a brighter note we loved the house. It’s pretty noisy with the number of trains that go by along with the traffic. Motorists seem to speed quite a bit on that stretch of road. The back yard was overgrown with weeds and not mowed. The house is well equipped with kitchen items. It was a great location to go back and forth to the A&M Tennis Center. The TV’s were nice and large, the internet is fast, the bathrooms were great for the two couples. There are a few things that need some work. Several doors in the house do not stay shut including the exterior doors. Going into the master-bath there are carpet nails sticking up. The closet door in the master bedroom has a sharp edge that can really hurt. It’s really a great little house, but for us and this crazy virus that’s spreading it really put a damper on everything.
Great location for a game day weekend. We were able to walk to the stadium. Only downside was that it is close to the road/train. That really didn’t bother us much though. Would definitely stay again!
