This house is a beautiful guest home set up for rentals year-round. You won't feel like you are intruding on anyone's space. It has everything you need, things you forget, and several things you will enjoy!

Enjoy exploring and creating your best cup of coffee using our coffee bar. It offers a drip pot, single-cup Keurig, a Nespresso machine, and assorted syrups and creamers to guarantee a delicious cup of Joe.

For our smaller guests, there is a pack-n-play, highchair, kids' plates, cups, utensils, toys, and books for all ages.

There is a gas grill, ping-pong table, shuffleboard, arcade basketball, outdoor lawn games, a shaded patio with string lights, and a fire pit—the perfect combination to ensure every guest has a relaxing time.

There's a smart TV in the living room and in the master that allows you to enjoy YouTube TV and Prime TV. For non-screen entertainment, create memories with the provided puzzles and board games during your stay.

Thoughtful Hosts
The back 40 was a great property! It has a big, beautiful backyard that we enjoyed and the house itself is stocked with anything you might need! Amazing how thoughtful the hosts were in preparing the house for visitors of all ages. This was a perfect house to spend the weekend in as we celebrated our daughter’s graduation from Texas A&M.

Talk about stocked vacation home! The back fourty was amazing! I utilized many kitchen amenities! Of special interest was the nespresso machine ❤️. We also loved the quiet neighborhood, nearness to the park, the pretty seating under the string lights and the fenced in back yard!

House was very nice and had everything we needed for the stay. The ping pong and shuffle board was a big hit. Seems like there was a tournament every night. Outside area was very nice to just sit back and relax. Overall was a great place to stay and would stay here again.

Super cute charming home in a great location! My husband and I enjoyed our stay very much. We’ve stayed in several rental homes and this was by far the most well stocked home we’ve stayed at. The owners truly thought of everything!! Overall great experience and we would definitely start again!

Family Birthday Celebration
This house was perfect! The house itself was cozy and comfortable. It has a plethora of toys for children to play with and great games for the adults also. The backyard is beautiful and, although we have family in Cstat, everyone gathered for family meals with us! They loved sitting outside, watching the children play and visiting. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip!

Great family times!
This house was perfect!! The house was very comfortable and felt like home. We really enjoyed the fact that we did not have to pack so much to have an enjoyable stay. Everything from a pack n play to toys for every age was provided. The weather was cold and windy so being outside wasn't ideal. No matter, everyone was easily entertained without the TV. The backyard is very big which was nice for our pet. We would definitely stay there again!

Cousin’s Trip
Each year we pick a different city in Texas for a vacation with cousins. This year it was in Bryan/College Station. We were very pleased with our choice, The Back Forty. It was clean, comfortable, had a nice backyard, plenty of games and entertainment and overall had everything we needed. The Hosts made this place a welcoming home for us to spend a few days away from our own busy lives. We thoroughly enjoyed it!

Very comfortable
We enjoyed this sweet little house for our stay in Aggieland and daughters TAMU graduation. It was comfortable, nicely decorated and has a very pretty back yard that was peaceful to sit out and be with family. The garage is full of games which we enjoyed and the kitchen had everything we needed including a nice coffee bar. We were comfortable and enjoyed our family and the graduation events with no worries and no stress. Minutes from campus and the west side of town.

Everything we needed and more!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here while visiting our student at A&M. The property owner has thought of everything you might need during your stay. The kitchen is very well stocked for cooking at home and there is also an outdoor grill. There are puzzles, game boards, ping pong, etc. The back yard is lovely with a fire pit and covered eating area plus lots of birds to watch and listen to with morning coffee. We brought our dog who also enjoyed the fenced backyard. The location is very convenient to campus and in a quiet neighborhood. It was the perfect, peaceful place to stay while visiting A&M.

Sweet Respite
Dropped off our oldest son for his first year of college. Sadly the circumstances are not the idealistic and it was not a weekend full of all the fun and photos and whatnot that I see all our friends posting online. My heart was hurting a little and at the end of a long day I walked into this sweet home w scripture everywhere and the sheet music to some of my favorite hymns framed and in the wall. It was such sweet balm to my soul. Thank you for creating this special space for a weary momma.

Best VRBO Listing!
I can’t say enough about this property! It was cleaner than I ever expected. Not one dirt partical on the floors. There is everything you could possibly need or want available. We only stayed the night after Santa’s Wonderland and left the next morning but I would love to visit again and stay longer! Sleeping arrangement options are great. It is the cutest, most quaint little home. Although small, it seemed so much larger! And the owner was amazing!! Quick responses to all of my messages and she even set up the trundle and cot since she knew we’d be coming in late with the kiddos after Santa’s Wondeand! I would give this listing 10 stars if I could. We will be back. ❤️

Game time - Perfect for family gathering
We needed a place to get away from Hurricane Laura destruction in Louisiana. Stayed in this neat, quaint, and faith filled home. Lots of games to choose from including board games & puzzles inside and Indoor basketball, ping pong & tabletop shuffleboard in garage. Some nice extras include: Fenced in back yard, parking for 4 cars, welcome snack basket, and kurrig coffee pods. We went Christmas weekend and the house was decorated for Christmas!!! The bunk room was nice for the family with Most kids... there was a trundle and twin over queen bunk. There was also a very nice cot that my family used in other bedroom for our son. All the furnishings and fixtures are top notch. And the space was very clean and welcoming. Only drawback was that the space was pretty tight. We did not mind since our family was looking for some good together time ... And we were only going to be there for two nights. Homeowner was amazing to work with. From the time we first booked, to our arrival, to departure. We hope to return again in the spring to catch a baseball game at A&M!! Thanks Jean Marie
