Exactly as described and perfect for our family visit for our daughter's graduation from A&M. Place was lovely, communication ideal. they even left a bouquet and balloon for our graduate! So thoughtful! Absolutely recommend this property!
Wonderfully appointed, cozy home in a quiet neighborhood. Close enough to get to A&M quickly but a peaceful place to return to. Host communicated well and was helpful throughout our stay! Will try to stay here again next time we are in College Station!

Hi Dan,
Thank you for that detail and review. All the best.
Outstanding communication. The house was immaculate and had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable. After being disappointed with the last couple of places we have booked through the app, this one exceeded every expectation!

Nick, I am happy to hear you guys had a good time and were comfortable. We strive to set ourselves apart and glad we were able to!
Please come back to see us.
Awesome place. They had everything at the house you needed. We didn’t have to rush to the grocery store for necessities. The neighborhood was quiet and no problems at all. It was very close to town. It was very roomy and updated. We loved it.

Thank you Kylene for the kind words! I am glad everything worked out.
We had a great stay at this beautiful home. It is incredibly spacious, very clean and in quiet neighborhood. The host was so accommodating and incredibly helpful. The backyard patio is so great and great for adults and kids. The house had everything you need and has been updated so beautifully. Also all the linens and everything in the house is great quality. You will love this house!
Property was clean and updated on the inside. Very good location and easy to access all things College Station! The only issue we had was there was a small amount of watered down soap in both bathrooms. Beds were very comfortable and the neighborhood was quiet.
Quiet location convenient to the 6. Shopping nearby. Two big bedrooms. Nicely decorated. The kitchen had everything we needed for breakfast. We casted our phones to the smart tv to watch our shows. There is no spa or hot tub, as mentioned in the listing.
This house was perfect for 2 families! The 2 king bedrooms for the parents and the bunk room for the kids. Our 4 kids said it was their favorite house ever! They had a blast making blanket forts in the bunk room and playing tetherball! The house is well appointed. There was some laundry soap, dish soap, shampoo and body wash. They really thought of everything! We really look forward to staying here again!
This house was just as perfect in person if not better! Just a few things that I liked was that it was in a quiet neighborhood, very clean throughout, comfortable beds, well furnished and easy to get just about anywhere in the Bryan/College Station area. This house can comfortably accommodate 10 and would be perfect to families to share. Kelly was quick to respond to questions and very eager to make sure our stay was a great one. Although we didn't get time to really enjoy it, the backyard was great too. Would definitely recommend.

We chose this neighborhood because it’s the perfect blend of peaceful and convenient.
