Outstanding Stay

This is absolutely one of the best places we have ever rented. Squeaky clean, tastefully decorated (lots of smiles at some of the signs), well furnished with everything you could possibly need, quiet neighborhood, and a beautiful backyard. We will definitely stay there again whenever we are in the area!

A stay at the Back Forty

We had a wonderful stay at this property in a quiet neighborhood in Bryan, Texas. The rooms and beds were comfortable, and the house is well- equipped. We were surprised at how well-stocked the kitchen was, especially with spices and other staples.

Love this house

Great home and lots of activities in the house. Our kiddos really enjoyed all the games and books. We took our Goldendoodle and the backyard was great, all fenced and lots of room for our dog to play. We will definitely be planning to stay here again!

Perfect Family Home!

We stayed with 4 kids ages 2-7 and we never ran out of things to play with from games in the room to activities stored in garage. Huge backyard was perfect for them to run around in! Family friendly and kid friendly home. We loved reading Bible verses too! Will book here again.

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!

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!

Michael's Graduation Day

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at Back Forty. It was as described on website. Has everything a family needs. Too bad we could not enjoy the back yard due to mosquitos but it was awesome. My husband and I enjoyed spending time during the day while the rest of our children arrived. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again in our upcoming trips to Bryan/College Station.

Back Forty is the Best Place Ever

I have stayed in dozens of places in Bryan, and this place is now at the top of my list of favorites. Why? Because it’s a sweet, 3-bedroom, 1950s shingled house with a large, fenced backyard that’s perfect for a dog; the native plants and greenery that fills the backyard; the sounds of birdsong in the morning; the convenient location, near everything, including a wonderful nearby park, but also very peaceful, and the warm, soft feel of a house that’s seen a lot of love. The house reminds me of my childhood days (there’s even a rotary phone), yet it’s modernized with great tech and really thoughtful accouterments. Such as a stand-up phone charger on a bedside table. TVs in two rooms. A big jar in the bathroom of all the things we might forget to bring (deodorant, toothpaste, etc.). Tons of toys and games for families. And, for coffee lovers, there’s a complete, dream-come-true coffee bar.It’s not a party house, but, for a couple or family seeking a safe, peaceful, enriching environment, this place gets my vote.

We absolutely loved our stay. This is a beautiful home that has been cared for by the owners in a way that makes you feel so welcomed and relaxed. From the decorations to the little touches this home is a 5 star home. We loved the backyard & its peacefulness as well. We would highly recommend this family friendly home to anyone needing a home away from home.
