About this property

Serene House with Charm on Golfcourse!

This fabulous house is located on the Briarcrest Country Club Golf Course (now the Phillips Event Center) in Bryan. Situated at the end of the cul de sac, the house exudes calm. Five sliding glass doors bring inside the serenity of the woods and golf course, and lead to patios and a deck perfect for relaxing, whether it be coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening! This house is a hidden gem, comfortable and private, but with quick access to everything including shopping, restaurants, medical facilities and schools. If you enjoy golf or tennis, the public Briarcrest golf course clubhouse is a short walk up the street. The house is located at the 7th Tee. Comprised of 2181 square feet, there are four bedrooms which sleep 8 comfortably, and three full baths.
Built in 1974, it is slightly vintage to its roots, which we think adds to its charm! We've owned it since 2002, however, so the important things have been updated: new chair height toilets in each of the three bathrooms (don't laugh, a lifesaver if your knees are shot from playing hard!). There is a new on-demand hot water heater system to accommodate your whole party's needs when showering before an event! And upon request from a previous guest, the living room now boasts a 65-inch Smart-tv, bigger and better for watching football games! And a new electric ceramic cooktop has been installed in the kitchen.
The bedrooms and kitchen are well appointed to meet each guest's needs. With memory foam platform type beds, Egyptian cotton linens, plush spa bath towels, matching dishes set for 12, matching wineglasses, brand new pots and pans for the new cooktop, our goal is your comfort and pleasure. The living room has a gorgeous leather couch and loveseat set, and the dining room a lovely dining table with ample seating. A fire pit and grill are available outside.
The artwork is eclectic and obtained over the years personally, so please take care, and I am housing part of my father's library, so please do not disturb. We have wonderful retiree neighbors, the reason parties and events are not permitted, so please be respectful. The house is a short walk to Bryan High School, 1.5 miles to the Brazos Center, 5 miles to Veteran's Park, 7.5 miles to Texas A&M University, and 14 miles to Santa's Wonderland! The neighborhood opens onto Briarcrest Drive which leads to Hwy 6 (the By-pass), and fast access to anywhere, whether that be Texas A&M University, or Messina Hof Winery! We hope you will enjoy your trip to the B-CS area and that our home helps make your experience even more pleasant and memorable!

Vrbo has recently assigned captions, which are slightly arbitrary, to the photos. They have not given us the ability to edit, therefore, what is a deck, is being called a balcony, etc., just fyi! :)

Great

The stay was awesome. Communication was great as the owner continued to check on us. She allowed us to check in a bit earlier and gave us the liberty to leave as we pleased on check out day. Home was older in some respect but owner has added decor and updates to make things better. The location is great especially near the golf course area.

Wonderful location for Family visit

We truly enjoyed the opportunity to celebrate Thanksgiving with our Aggie grandson who is a freshman this year. It was a busy and fun weekend playing TU even though the Aggies lost. The living area is very comfortable and we had plenty of room to watch the game on a large flatscreen. The dining area was great and we played cards with the grandchildren. There is an outside seating area with a view of the golf course. When the weather was good, we enjoyed sitting outside. The host was very thoughtful and replaced the double ovens because she knew we were eating our Thanksgiving meal at the house and one of the ovens was not working property. We would certainly stay here again in the future!

Amazing for staging a Wedding!!

My daughter just got married this last weekend. My parents, daughters, and their spouses all stayed with us at this home. It was beautifully maintained and comfortable. The host was extremely friendly and easy to work with. She was far more helpful and accommodating than I would have ever dreamed. The location is perfect. Everything you would need is nearby, and downtown Bryan is also very close. I could not have asked for a better or easier place to stay during such a busy and exciting time.

Nice place for a family to stay. Large living room to gather and a great outdoor area also. Close to Texas A&M with easy access to Highway 6. Kris is the “Hostess with the mostest” providing fresh cut flowers, goodies, and some snacks and drinks. Highly recommend.

This was our second stay at this property and we couldn't have been happier. The owner has updated some of the features that were a little problematic last year (new water heater) and apparently has plans to continue improvements. We would definitely stay here again.

WONDERFUL!

Some might look and see no upgrades... This house is immaculate and extremely comfortable! Kris is a wonderful host and communicates well about every detail and was the sweetest to leave fresh flowers on the table and a few special snacks for us when we stayed for our son's A&M graduation. Beds were comfortable! We would love to stay again!

Wonderful Aggieland home

This was the perfect stay for old A&M classmates on their annual football weekend getaway. The property is close enough to the Texas A&M campus for easy access to events yet far enough for quiet and privacy. The home was inviting and comfortable and provided plenty of space.

Nostalgic home

This house is incredibly spacious and clean. Kristine was very responsive and was helping with any questions constantly throughout our stay. I would definitely stay here again. It is rare to find a good deal on a house with three bathrooms. The house is literally like it was in the 1970s. Which I thought was pretty cool.

Spacious home, abundant seating, beautiful neighborhood

My two toddlers, their grandparents, and I loved our stay here as we waited for my husband to finish the MS 150 bike ride. The home had ample bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate our party. This home has so much seating, from the living room, to the dining table, to the wrap-around deck. The host provided a generous array of towels, soaps, sprays, bath mats, and more. She worked hard to make sure our stay was top notch. She was very responsive and helpful. My family is already asking when we can stay here again!

Annual trip for old Ags

We had a group of 5 guys in town for the Miami game and to play a little golf. This is a great place to stay, perfect for our group. Right on the 7th hole of the golf course and less than a two minute drive to the clubhouse. The host is one of the best I've encountered. Very responsive and provided nice little unexpected surprises such as snacks and drinks. House is very clean and comfortable. There is plenty of room for a larger group and it has lots of outdoor seating areas to enjoy. If you are looking for a place to stay for games or special events, this is the place for you. Especially for bigger families.

We didn't want to leave!

This home is by far the best place our family has ever stayed in for a football weekend. There were 8 of us and there was plenty of room for more. The home is situated on a cul-de-sac and the neighborhood is very quiet. It is exactly as described in the listing. Our grandkids had plenty of room in the backyard to throw the football and there are several outdoor chairs. You can watch golfers during the day or wildlife at night. The family room is huge and so is the TV. It’s perfect for big groups. The Wi-Fi connection is very reliable. There are various eating options and a Walmart in the area. We made several trips to the A&M campus and the drive was easy. The home is clean and orderly. You’ll find lots of dishtowels, comfy sheets, thick bath towels, soft throws and the beds and pillows are very comfortable. Although we did not cook, the kitchen is well stocked. Everything you might need is there. The washer and dryer are located near the kitchen and work nicely. We all decided that we wanted to come back on a non-football weekend so we could just relax and enjoy the atmosphere. I could go on and on. Last, but not least, Kris is a super great host!

Peaceful lodging!

Located on a quiet cul de sac, this property backs up to a golf course. The interior of the property was very clean. I particularly loved the fluffy white towels. Bed linens and mattresses allowed for great sleep. There is a large smart tv in the living room and plenty of places to sit. Very cool and comfortable inside on a hot and humid College Station weekend. Owner has shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and hand soap in each bathroom. The showers have good water pressure. In the kitchen, we found several varieties of coffee, water and drinks in the fridge, and even a few snacks. I purchased some creamers and sugars for our coffee. We didn’t really use the kitchen except for morning coffee. Nice washer and dryer. There was an ironing board and very nice iron. Yes, some of us still iron. Blankets and extra pillows in the hallway linen closet. I can’t imagine needing anything more. The owner is very personable and quick to respond to questions. Loved our stay at this College Station property.

Great house, fresh and welcoming.

Home owner left instructions on ‘how to’ that addressed any questions we may have had. In addition, homeowner e-mailed us several times to make sure everything was satisfactory. The kitchen was well stocked with necessities and so were the bathrooms. The house was very roomy and comfortable. We would try to stay again should the occasion arise.

About the host

Why they chose this property

I love, love, love this house! It's comfortable, open, happy! Not fussy. The large and spacious living room brings the outdoors in and just feels good. Perfect for entertaining or just relaxing with family or friends. I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do!

What makes this property unique

I've been told by my guests to stress that the house sits on the golfcourse and that you can easily drive into the backyard in your golfcart off the course for refreshment refreshers and bathroom breaks at home while enjoying a day of golf!

Also, the house is a single story. With all four bedrooms on the same level, the lack of a staircase makes it easy for young and old alike!

Each of the three bathrooms has a full bath/shower with grab bars placed for extra security, and bathtub non-slippage mats.
