Tailgate location

Had a great stay at this property! This is an older house that has been updated in a very cute way. Although updated, the house had a little bit of an old smell, the coffee pot did not work, and it is right off a very busy road with a nearby train track. Upon checking in, a realtor came by to put out a for sale sign and shortly after, the maintenance man dropped by toilet paper and paper towels. Overall, our stay went really well.

Amazing location

This property is all about location. We went to an Aggie basketball game. Easy walk to Reed. House is older but remodeled. Beds are comfortable. Everything was clean. If you are doing anything on campus and need a close place, I’d highly recommend.

Holidays with the Family

The house is cute. The kitchen was really nice with a big island. The master bedroom and bath were nice as well. It was close to my son and his family which is where we spent most of our time. The only thing was it was right by the train track but that didn't really bother us. The house worked for what we needed it for and I would stay there again.

Great location for a game day weekend. We were able to walk to the stadium. Only downside was that it is close to the road/train. That really didn’t bother us much though. Would definitely stay again!

Great House and Location

Wonderful clean home and great location in spite of being on a busy street and across from railroad tracks. The schedule of the trains did not interfere with our sleeping or enjoyment of home. Fenced backyard is a wonderful plus, especially if you have a dog. Host is wonderful and responded quickly to any questions we had. Would absolutely stay at this wonderful home again. Thanks, Cora

Great Location/Convenience

The location of the house was great which provided such an easy access to and from the Texas A&M campus. The main downside were the neighbors who played loud music into the early morning hours. Would probably stay at this VRBO again with ear plugs in tow.

Apartment Move-In Day

We stayed the night to help my daughter move into her apartment for the Fall semester. We LOVED this location. Wellborn is always busy but if you take the side streets you are good. Clean, cute, with a Master Suite in the back that is really nice. I love the upgrades with the open ceiling. Getting in was easy, instructions when closing up are clear. I would totally stay here again. GREAT location for tailgating. You really can walk to the stadium, and pass all the tailgates along the way!

Texas A&M visit

My daughter and I were in town from out of state for her new student conference. This house was not only in the perfect location, but it was adorable and excellent for the two of us. Only complaint is that we couldn’t stay longer. We plan to book here again if it’s available during future visits.

New Student Conference

Excellent location, the size of the house is deceptive from the front - plenty of room for our party of 4. There was an issue at check-in, but owner was communicative about it and worked to find a solution that would work for both of us. There was a small issue with cleanliness, but I gave it 5 stars overall because we would choose to stay here again.

Quick trip!

We came in just for one night to look at places for our incoming freshman to live off campus. The house is just as it says and had plenty of room for all 5 of us. It was a little musky throughout and the ceiling in the living room is interesting for sure. It was fairly clean minus a few dead bugs and the backyard is great for pets! If you are a light sleeper be sure to bring ear plugs or a noise machine as it is close to a busy main road and the train tracks - train runs at night too but doesn’t blow its horn. Master bed sinks in the middle so for two people it was a little uncomfortable.
