Easy booking! Communication with property manager was easy and they proved to be VERY responsive to questions! Great property for a College Football weekend with friends!
Excellent all way around. Only issue was the heat, but that's Texas in July, lol. Had a small issue with the ac, but it was quickly fixed. We would stay there again if we can.
We loved the secluded house with the private pool. The only negatives were some wasps by the pool and we couldn’t get the YouTubeTV to log in with the information provided. It was a great time away with family. We will be back!
Me and my 2 Children had a great time! The farmhouse was clean and cozy. The pool was great! I would definitely like to come and do it again. Thank you!
We visited for Youth Football Camp and had a great time! The house was clean, the pool was DEEP, and the beds were comfy. We would definitely stay again!
Great place to stay to experience Texas for the first time.
We had a wonderful action packed stay in Texas. Great location for a country experience but close enough to town for dining and shopping. We would come back again for sure.
My husband, 5 year old twin boys and I had a wonderful stay here for Spring Break! We were looking for a place in the county to get away and this house was perfect. There was a small family of rabbits living in the nearby woods and we would watch for them every morning and evening. The house was very clean and fully stocked with board games. Unfortunately it was a little too cold for us to enjoy the swimming pool, but we did spend a few afternoons with our feet in the water. The house was also very close to the Aggieland Safari Zoo, which I would highly recommend!
This property was exactly what we needed, a hidden little gem. Home is warm and inviting, as soon as you walk in you feel at home. The pool was great! We had some shattered rain showers but we still were able to enjoy the pool and while it was raining we played board games that were supplied by the owners. The owners of this property have thought of everything you could possibly need. We will definitely go back.
We really enjoyed the farmhouse retreat. It was just far enough, but close to various commodities. We spent most of our time in the pool. So much so, that we never made it to the Aggieland Safari zoo. Kids loved that it had WiFi and Netflix.
We had to evacuate our home for hurricane Laura. After deciding on where to go, I found this gem! Off the beaten path, plenty of room inside and out and a pool! Close enough to town to make grocery runs. Great communication with the property manager! Thanks for your help, Sheri!
We had a great time! The kids really enjoyed the pool and the games! The property manager was great to work with. She always responded quickly and was very accommodating. The house is equipped with everything you need. We will definitely be going back!

About the host
Hosted by Sheri Ginn
Johnny and Marilyn enjoy the outdoors and have a working cattle ranch not too far from this house. Johnny grew up out there and we love the area. We raise Black Angus cattle, have a few horses a donkey and two dogs. Needless to say, we love our pets!!! Johnny is also a contractor and Marilyn is a Realtor. We love helping people reach their dreams of home ownership. We are very active in our community and church.
Why they chose this property
My husband grew up across from this home on a dairy farm. He always loved it and has many childhood memories of playing over there. We always loved this house and said if we ever had the opportunity to purchase it we would. Well God blessed us with the opportunity and we went for it! We remodeled it and brought everything to code but still kept the farmhouse charm.
What makes this property unique
If you love a country setting then this is it! Very secluded and surrounded by oak trees. A great place to unwind. Close enough to town so you can enjoy all Bryan/College Station has to offer.
