Amazing home-amazing host!

From booking to the stay we had an above and beyond experience. The house was very clean, good layout for our girls basketball team, and close to everything. The beds were super comfy and we appreciated the toiletry items for those who may have forgotten something. The house was an entertainment zone and the girls loved it! Highly recommend this property!!!

Best place to stay

We stayed at the Howdy Hangout with our family and a friend - altogether 8 folks. We were in town for our son’s wedding. Everything was perfect. Updated and so many details thought out. The main room was big and open to the kitchen. The backyard was terrific! Gamerooms were definitely a fun place as well. Great location. Couldn’t have found a better place. So easy to work with the owners. We loved it!

FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY!!

⸻ The house was absolutely perfect for our annual grandkid getaway to Santa’s Wonderland. The putting green, pool table, and basketball game kept everyone entertained for hours — the kids never stopped smiling! The kitchen was wonderfully equipped, and the coffee bar had every option and add-on we could possibly want. The beds were incredibly comfortable, the layout worked perfectly for our group, and the whole home was spotless. It truly lived up to its name — the perfect place to “hang out”! We would love to come back next year if it’s available. We couldn’t have asked for a better place. Bottom line: This home isn’t just a rental — it’s a memory-maker.

Nice home to stay in for families

We were in town for our son's wedding, so we had 11 people staying in the house. Everything was clean and easy to find. They even had extra supplies in the restrooms in case anyone forgot anything. Our family loved playing pool and the other games in the house.

Great amenities and attention to detail!

We were in town for my son’s wedding. The house was great as a gathering place for family. Everyone enjoyed the games! There was plenty of room to set out food and for everyone to sit and enjoy meals together. There was plenty of parking and ample bedroom and bathroom space for everyone who stayed at the house! The owners thought of lots of small details that made the house feel like we were at home. We will stay again! Thank you!

Graduation/family weekend

Beautiful home with enough space inside and out for everyone. Lots of outdoor games as well as two “game rooms.” Everyone loves the house and it was amazing to have enough room for all of my out of town guess. Owner responded quickly to all of my questions during my day. If your looking for a fun home to entertain while in Bryan/College Station, then this is the house.

This is THE place to stay in Bryan/Collage Station!!! We just hosted our annual family holiday celebration here and there truly could not have been a more perfect setting. Inside, the elegant home is pristine, warm, comfortable and inviting. The flow of the downstairs lends its self to easy, almost effortlessly socializing. The outside is FABULOUS! So many activities (with equipment easy to find & in great condition), and different areas of the yard in which to congregate and mingle. Our family voiced a UNANIMOUS “YES” when I asked them if we’d enjoy doing this again. Getting all 18 people to agree with each other was a little Christmas magic. The host is friendly and kind, responsive, professional, and just goes that extra mile to ensure your comfort and enjoyment of this property - lots of thoughtful little details …and there’s MUCH to enjoy!

Celebrated Graduation at the Howdy Hangout

I would give the Howdy Hangout a 10 out of 10! Janae and Brennan were amazing to work with. Their communication was impressive. Then when we arrived for our son's graduation trip, Howdy Hangout overdelivered. Not only was the home beautiful and clean with lots of activities, they also thought of the small things that make a visit better (ie. makeup wipes/cloths, hair dryer, shampoo/lotion, qtips, doggie basket, etc). I would highly recommend!

Quad Mom Weekend

Seven of us Aggie Corps Moms came in for a weekend retreat. Howdy Hangout was perfect and amazingly comfortable for all of us, and had plenty of room for our boys to come visit and enjoy the fun games in the home. This home is beautifully decorated, spacious and very clean. And the pool table and game room were just too cool! We didn't want for anything with all of the thoughtful amenities. We hope to make this our home base when we have more Mom Weekends in the future!

Great Place!

We had an extended family weekend getaway here and it was perfect! The pool table, basketball game, and arcade game provided the perfect entertainment. I loved that the dining table was big enough for all of us to sit around and play games, and also the extra seating at the bar for when we wanted to spread out more. We were able to cook in the kitchen and had everything we needed. The bed situation was great! We are mostly adults and older teens, so having so many large beds and non-bunkbeds was perfect- everyone was comfortable. Backyard area looked great and very inviting, but the weather kept us inside. The host was very responsive when we sent messages, and accommodated us when we realized items were left behind. Overall it was a great weekend and we would definitely stay there again.

Perfect Home for a Special Celebration

We stayed here to celebrate our son getting his senior corps boots, and the home exceeded every expectation. It was incredibly spacious and comfortable, with more than enough room for our family and plenty of space to host the celebration itself. The outdoor “Howdy” sign made it into nearly every photo and was the perfect backdrop for such a meaningful occasion. The reservation process was seamless, and getting in and out of the home was easy. The owner’s consistent communication and attentiveness made the experience even better. We are truly grateful and would absolutely stay here again.
