Excellent Experience

Everything about the Octaranch is great. From the property outside to the awesome interior, we loved it. We were so pleased with how comfortable and homey it felt to stay here. Everything you could need was made available to us. I highly recommend this property. It is a remote but that is a huge part of its charm. Super quiet and peaceful. Thanks for a great stay.

Amazing Property and Amazing Host

This was my first time booking through VRBO, so I didn't really know what to expect. My brother and I, along with some friends, were planning on visiting CSTAT to meet up with people, and this property was perfect for large groups. We had more than enough room to play spikeball during the day, sit around the campfire at night, and have a kickback during the evening! The property was super accommodating for all our needs, and the land/space truly made me feel as if I were on vacation. Most importantly, Jessica, our host, was super friendly and maintained great communication with me from the moment I booked her house to even after we checked out. She gave super helpful directions, complimentary snacks/drinks, and clarified parking and proper use of all the amenities so that there was no confusion. Jessica went above and beyond to make sure we had a pleasant stay. If my group and I ever need to come back to CSTAT again, we would definitely book with Jessica again!

Amazing Home & Host!!

I’ve stayed plenty of places before and NOTHING compares to this property. From the beautiful home, the gorgeous property, and our amazing Host, Jessica. She went above and beyond for us from the moment I booked our stay with her, and even after we were gone. She always replied very quickly, checked on us throughout our stay, made sure we had everything that we needed, explained everything to us to where we had absolutely no questions, and even went the extra mile when I forgot something after we were gone. I couldn’t have asked for a better host!! The house was everything we could have asked for and so much more. It was very homey, and the views were gorgeous. We were able to relax with our kiddos, watch the deer in the mornings and evenings, and let them play. There was so many things for the kids to do, and to enjoy. Our babies didn’t want to come home and are already asking to go back! She had everything we could even think of possibly needing in the home, and even left some Christmas treats for our kiddos to enjoy! :) She was very thoughtful! We spent the weekend here and went to Santa’s Wonderland. We plan to make this a yearly thing now, and to come back and enjoy this property!

Awesome outdoor space, very clean house.

Enjoyed having outdoor space for kids to play and adults to hang out. So much better than small hotel room in town. Plenty of amenities, felt welcoming.

Perfect Aggieland Ranch!

We loved our week long stay at the Octoranch! The house was well appointed and had everything we needed for our family of 4 (including a baby and a toddler). Beautiful location and the views from the porch are incredible! Jessica, the host, was wonderful to work with, made sure we had everything we needed, and was very accommodating for the small event we had at the house. Will definitely be staying here again!

Perfect for graduation weekend

Our stay at this home made our son’s Aggie graduation weekend so easy! Just a few minutes from campus, it was the perfect place with lots of space for celebration. It is *so* well-stocked with everything we needed for the party after - lots of outdoor games (corn hole, ladder golf, basketball hoops, even disc golf and others), picnic and folding tables, a fire pit. We had a great time with family and friends. The owner Jessica responds immediately to questions and is so helpful. Would love to stay here again.

This place had everything! We have stayed at many places but the attention to details was amazing! Jessica was very thoughtful in her check-in book, her generous appointments, her organization, and her communication. The property was so much fun! You will not be disappointed!
