We used the property to host a sales meeting. The living room space worked great for our meeting with the big TV and plenty of room to be comfortable. Lots of activities available like ping pong, horse shoes, corn hole, shuffle board and lots more. Setting was quite and peaceful. Fire pit was great!
Everyone who attended wants to bring their family to get away.
Thanks a bunch!

Our stay was amazing! The property was beautiful and comfortably accommodated all our guest. Check in was a breeze. any problems we encountered were addressed promptly and we were given direction on how to resolve the. My family thoroughly enjoyed their stay. The only regret we have is that there had been no rain and the pond was low, but the children and adults still enjoyed the fishing experience. Some of the kids were able to catch their first fish. I will definitely recommend this property to my friends and colleagues as well as my family to theirs.

If you are looking for a quiet, secluded getaway this is it. A peaceful property with lots of good old fashioned fun (hammocking, board games, hot tub, ping pong, fireplace and bond fire, etc.). Plenty of room to spread out and relax.

The Retreat at Hempstead is an amazing place to get together. The location, accommodations, and property manager were all 1st class. We enjoyed the privacy of the house, the proximity to College Station (went to Bush Library, and A&M Football game), and all the house had to offer: game room, fishing, hot tub, firepit. Highly recommend it.

Best of the Best
I was blown away by this property and communication. The place was FULLY stocked (unlike so many places that will welcome you to bring 30 people for 2 nights and provide 4 rolls of toilet paper and one paper towel). Condiments, spices, paper products....TONS of outdoor games. 2 great grills, fishing supplies. Netflix, great internet...tons of space. I can't wait to take my group back!!

The perfect place
This is our 2nd time to stay at The Retreat. Our high school boys play in a tournament nearby, so a few families stay at the house and host team dinner. The place was a perfect spot for the boys to hang out and chill. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. There were plenty of activities for the boys to do, fishing, ping pong, basketball. The coaches particularly enjoyed the comfy couches. The owners were more than accommodating. There was more than enough room for our group to stay.

My family had a wonderful Christmas celebration at The Retreat at Hempstead. The house is beautiful and nicely decorated for Christmas. It fit our family very well. We especially appreciated being able to all fit around the dining table (with the breakfast chairs on the corners), The house is so well supplied; we even found nice serving dishes for our Christmas dinner! The weather reduced our time outside, but it cleared enough for us to enjoy the patio fireplace. We even talked about returning in the summer so that we can enjoy the outside activities. The Monkey House is full of fun outdoor toys! We also appreciate how well managed the property is -- from the details you supplied prior to our trip, to the Welcome Book and all the helpful signage in the house and on the property. THANK YOU!!

Perfect place for wedding festivities and Thanksgiving.
My family totally enjoyed our stay here. My daughter got married nearby. Out-of-town guests stayed overnight, and in-town guests joined us for her shower the day before her wedding and a Thanksgiving meal the day after her wedding. We used the lovely long dining room table for the shower, the great big "empty room" with four round tables for our Thanksgiving meal, and the Fire Pit circle by the lake for our "three-legged black pot meal". The space was perfect for us. On top of that, the house had almost everything we needed - the only thing we needed to bring was a roaster for our turkey, a sharp knife for carving it and a few extra crockpots (along with the two provided) to keep warm our mashed potatoes, dressing, corn, squash, etc.....!!! Our hostess answered all my emails immediately as we prepared for our stay and let me go snoop around the kitchen a week ahead (thanks!) to see what was there. She also let us know on her own initiative that the house was ready for us early on our arrival date (VERY much appreciated as we got to have a relaxing afternoon before getting dinner prepared). I have two more daughters who may get married some day - this is where I would want our family to gather again.

Perfect destination!
Group of 11 colleagues came together for training & team building. This home was perfect for us. It had plenty of space for break out sessions & common areas were big enough for the entire team to be together as well. The only down side was wi-fi did not work in the barn but outside of that The Retreat at Hempstead exceeded all of our expectations. The hosts were very responsive. Wish we would've had more time to enjoy all the extra activities available within the property!

Nice stay but a few details for consideration
We rented this home for a homecoming sleepover with high school students and parents. Great home and facilities with all the amenities you can think of. We really enjoyed our stay with the on property lake and fire pit. A couple of things to consider for any group with teenagers: though you are in the country, a local neighbor continually complained of noise even though we weren’t loud or sometimes even outside. Secondly, there are cameras on the outside of the house which are actively monitored which we wish we would have known upfront. We had a great time at this place and the property managers were very responsive.

Hidden Gem
The Retreat is a beautiful hidden gem. We were so impressed with the neighborhood, view and accommodations. The owners were very easy to work with and allowed us an early check in due to our schedule. We traveled with four children and could not believe how much there was for them to do there - so many toys, games, sports, etc. They all had a blast! We will definitely be back!

This property is absolutely perfect for a getaway or retreat. It literally has everything you need from a high end stove, to an amazing screened in area for avoiding the bugs, to a beautiful property with so much to see and do. The hosts were awesome and we felt very safe and incredibly comfortable. I highly recommend this property!

We had a group of 13 life long friends stay at the Retreat, and we had an amazing time! Chatting in the living room, at the kitchen table, and around the fire pit, fishing, playing games and having meals together at the dining room table, it was all so perfect!
Tracy and Jennifer were quick to respond to any questions before, during and after our stay.
Highly recommend, and we will be back!

I can’t even begin to describe how incredible this place was! My wife/2 kids, sister/her boyfriend/their 3 kids and mom all stayed here over the weekend and quite literally started looking at dates for our next stay as soon as we approached the place. The house is humongous and has so many things for you to do! There is so many things to do at this place, we didn’t even take advantage of the fire pit because we were so busy with everything else the whole time. The pond has plenty of fish for catching, and this is the ideal place for good times to be had and memories to be made. Jennifer was extremely responsive to every question I had and was a wonderful host. We will for sure be booking again for much longer next time!

If You Want A Top of the Line Getaway
If you want to go home away from home and with alot space, this is the place to be. The house was stocked with everything needed, (dishes, pots, pans, utensils, bedding and beds), I could go on and on about great things when it comes to The Retreat at Hempstead, but I am going to try to make it short and simple.
We had a 7 couples Valentine's Retreat planned and it was absolutely amazing, the location fit the atmosphere perfectly.
Due to weather issues, we were snowed in, but the interaction with the owner was one of the best, I have ever seen, they contacted us before we could even attempt to contact them. They wanted to assure we were all okay and comfortable and made sure our safety came first.
All I can say is thank you so much Mrs. Jennifer, not only was the property and our stay wonderful, but most importantly so are you

This was a great property for our annual Thanksgiving retreat, and it was perfectly set up for everything that we could want. The outdoor fire pit and the well stocked lake were fantastic for as long as the weather cooperated. The screened porch and outdoor fireplace was incredibly convenient for the kids and the family that wanted a little more confort while still enjoying the outdoors. The rooms were well outfitted, and the game room was fantastic for the late night poker, shuffleboard, and air hockey games. We very much enjoyed our stay, and plan on coming back soon.
