Aggie Engagement

Senior Aggie was getting engaged!!! Needed more homey than hotel for the weekend. Perfect for the four of us. Bed was superb! Kids liked the bunks. Neighbors above us were up and footsteps/creaking could be heard at weird times all throughout both nights. But not heard in bedroom. Weird though.

Perfect stay near A&M

Needed to be in town for week for work and this turned out to be a perfect place to stay. Convenient to A&M and all the things College Station offers. Love the character of this VRBO and it was nice and cozy.

Great location with lots of beds

We came for a campus visit for our H.S. senior. We were a party of four, but wanted several beds for a brother and sister. Lots of space and lots of bed options. The location is great! A short walk from University Dr. and the Northgate area. A nice park is just down the street. I took our dog there several times a day. The Hosts were great at communication and providing for all our needs. We will try and stay again the next time we visit Aggieland. -T.C. class of '96
