Family girls trip

The farmhouse was perfect inside and out. The roses were blooming when we arrived. The front porch is welcoming, every room is clean, comfortable and sweetly decorated. The chickens are friendly and the fresh eggs were a real treat. We loved this little retreat and have already recommended it to friends and family. We will definitely choose it again when we visit College Station.

Perfect Stay!

This property was precious. It was secluded and spacious. Everything was modern but old school charm everywhere. The home had EVERYTHING you could think of including a personal fan, dog bowls and bug spray. We loved watching the chickens. It was exactly what we wanted!! I will definitely return for our next family gathering. Could not have been ANY better.

What the Family thought about the stay

The little ones loved gathering eggs. The family was satisfied with everything. I am sure this is the going rate for this Vrbo, but just wish it wasn’t so expensive. I think the cost per night should include everything, including taxes and hostess and cleaning fees. There is such a difference in the base cost per night and the final cost.

Great property

This property was great and the hosts were wonderful. Very easy to communicate with and very hospitable. We really appreciate them allowing us to bring our 2 dogs. We have often encountered difficulties finding a place that permits pets. The house was very clean and comfortable. Its an older home but has been renovated with all modern conveniences. I would highly recommend this property to anyone who wants a great place that is quiet and peaceful. Wonderful place to relax. This was our 2nd visit and we plan to rent it again in the future.

Loved!!

We enjoyed this home so very much. Very clean. Beds so comfortable. Farmhouse with all the updates. Everything you could ever need. More than enough linens and towels, etc. Basic spices, condiments, coffee, tea, creamer all for our use. Loved the chickens and fresh eggs just steps behind the home. The fire pit was a delight. They’ve thought of every detail. Not one single complaint. Loved every minute and truly didn’t want to leave.

A taste of home away from home!

Our family made countless memories in College Station when my wife and I were in school at A&M. When we became parents, we always talked about taking our girls to the special place that impacted our lives and our relationship so much! Mr. and Mrs. Scott were fantastic hosts and the house was exactly what we were looking for. Growing up and living in a small town, the peace of the country was something that drew us to the property immediately. After watching the Aggies win at Olson Field, it was so nice “escaping” the hustle and bustle of the town and enjoying some peace and quiet, along with our privacy. Will definitely be staying at the Farmhouse again and a big thank you to our hosts for the accommodations that made a special trip for our family just that much better!
