Enchanting farm

The accommodations are very nice and location in the middle of all the farms and county roads makes for a wonderful drive through what seems like a wooded forest. The house sits on a hill and has a lovely deck with a wonderful view. We enjoyed our stay.

Idyllic Serene Getaway

This was the most wonderful place to stay, down to every thoughtful detail. I truly enjoyed the time in nature on the outlined walking trails and the Calico cat was the sweetest morning companion on both the front and back porch. Would gladly stay here again!

A quiet, private, comfortable, and hassle free stay that was just perfect…

Located on an old farm on top of a hill with million dollar views, away from the hustle and bustle in an update farmhouse that was comfortable and just what was needed.

Wedding weekend

We had a family wedding to attend in Caldwell. We didn’t want to stay in a hotel in Bryan/CS. We found the perfect cabin to stay in. The cabin was clean and well kept. The bed was extremely comfortable.

Wonderful trip on the farm!

This is a wonderful cottage and farm stay. We had a great time seeing the animals and spending time together as a family and disconnecting from the day to day hustle back home. Our kids loved the playground and trampoline and the cottage was equipped with all we needed for a great stay. The owners were very welcoming and accommodating. We would definitely recommend staying at the Hilltop Cottage!

Scenic and peaceful

Scott and Jenna's place had some of the most beautiful scenery I've ever seen. My favorite part was greeting the cows, and the ducks and chickens that roamed around the property! Note* if you're allergic to wasps, bring your epi pen! Kitchen was perfect for some country cooking, and the beds were super comfy!

The BEST country getaway!

Our family of 4 had the most amazing getaway! The cabin had everything we needed including firewood for the wood burning stove inside (there is central heat and air as well that works great). The free range chickens and beautiful scenery had us wanting to stay much longer. The hosts are some of the best we’ve encountered and we’ve encountered a lot! I’d recommend this house for a couple, a family of 3-4, or a family of 5 if one child is in a pack n play.

Wedding nearby

The host was very helpful. We were coming to town for a wedding and I was tasked with providing lunch for the wedding party Our host was so accommodating by letting me use coolers and making sure the kitchen was stocked with cooking utensils I needed. The communication was super helpful. We would have loved to stay longer to enjoy the property- really beautiful.

A quint quiet farm house

We needed a two bedroom place to stay during an Aggie football weekend even though we were not going to the game. The farm is 45 minutes from College Station but an easy drive. The two bedrooms each had a window unit and very comfortable beds. We slept very well as we stayed very cool. We had a two year old so was perfect for him to run around without bothering anyone. Very clean. Plenty of towels.

Comfortable and cozy cottage

Comfortable and cozy cottage out in the country. Enjoy the drive to College Station as the countryside is beautiful. The weather was rainy and cold at Kyle Field. It was a treat to return to the peace and quiet of the cottage and light the wood burning stove. Large kitchen and living area just as pictured. The host is friendly and helpful. Now that we’ve found this jewel, we will be back. Next trip we’ll bring our fishing poles!

Solo Getaway in the Country

The house and surroundings fulfilled my desire to get away from the big city and spend some time by myself. It was quiet but for the sounds of nature. The chickens appeared close to noon on Saturday and spent a few hours pecking around the yard and taking a sand bath underneath the front porch. The surroundings were calm and peaceful. The sun decided not to appear but that only enhanced the serenity. Thank you!

It was very quiet and beautiful setting. Easy to find but last stretch was a gravel road but ok I am 85 and didn’t feel safe to take a shower. No handle bars. And friend with me had trouble turning the shower on. I did like the window unit in the bedrooms. Kept really cool on that hot night. Bed was very comfortable.

Awesome place to visit and stay

The Farm on the Hill was a spectacular stay. A bit from town but well worth by the short drive. So beautiful and quiet. Scott, Jenna and their entire family were great hosts. Jenna allowed our 2 year old granddaughter to help her feed the cows. We totally enjoyed the chickens, cows, rabbits and Newt the cat became a lifelong friend. We can’t say enough about our positive experience staying there. Even though the family was in their home right behind our stay, you would never know it. We totally felt we were the only people there but whenever a question arose, they responded within minutes. The place was so well stocked to make the stay comfortable. Totally our favorite air B&B stay ever.

Peace and the Best Cat

I really need peace and quiet to focus on my work and this place is absolutely perfect. Lots of care has been put into the cottage and the grounds. The views are fantastic and you can take several hikes without leaving the property. I try to get at least 6000 steps every day and this was perfect. I really enjoyed being able to get a few greens and a couple eggs as I love to cook! And the kitchen was more than adequate. However, do come stocked up because this is a very isolated farm, and the surrounding towns are not too sophisticated regarding grocery items. I loved the cat that stayed with me. I miss her. if she ever needs a home I’m there. I’ll see you guys soon again.

Magical

I was looking for a place to stay that my kids would like. They don’t love hotels and prefer a bit of space and nature so when I came across The Farm on a Hill, I knew they’d love it. The cottage is extremely charming with a front and back porch, cozy bedding and a well stocked kitchen. There is a beautiful view and in the evening you can see the most beautiful stars (us city folk don’t see as many.) My daughter’s favorite feature where the friendly kitties that lived on the property. It brought her so much joy to pet them on the porch each morning and evening. My son’s favorite part was the trampoline and the baby cow. Personally l loved the Instagram-worthy setting, the trees, flowers, hens (we had fresh eggs in the fridge upon arrival,) the sound of the frogs at night and the porch swing. My kids have already told me we are coming back :)

About the host

Hosted by Scott Olson

Host profile image
For us, when we vacation somewhere, we want a view. We wanted to purchase land with a view that felt like a vacation spot you never want to leave. Our home is centrally located between the Cabin and Cottage and shares the amazing view with guests!

Why they chose this property

Like for many, COVID changed our lives. The change showed us our daily activities whittled down to their simplest form, and we started spending more time together as a family. This was a positive change that we needed more than we knew. We still had the stresses that come with running businesses in the midst of COVID (even more stress in a lot of ways), but our family life simplified and solidified.

In the fall of 2020, we made the move to 30 acres with a small house on a hill with 3 cows that we knew nothing about. When we would vacation, we would always search for "a view." We wanted the place that we called home to have a view we never wanted to leave. We are blessed to call this place home. We are transforming it into our Farm on a Hill where we have built our dream home with an incredible sunset view. We are working to restore the soil using permaculture principles. We are life-long learners and hope to give back by sharing our view and welcoming you to our Farm.
