"This home is truly spectacular! A place of solitude or place of fun and entertainment. The side patio porch is great for family dialogue, quiet reading or just
sipping a glass of wine and reflecting. The living areas give fullness of life, knowing that
many celebrations and happy memories are celebrated here. Nothing more exciting than
going to an Aggie game (having a really cool place to stay, a 5-minute walk to Kyle Field),
family celebrations of the graduation of another Aggie, or coming back to reunite with
Ole' Army. Now, that we are parents of two young girls, we get to pass the legacy to them.
Thanks, mom for making this dream a reality and impacting all of the families who get to experience this real treasure in Aggieland."Gig' em,

"Victoria, you have done a beautiful job of creating a warm, welcoming home
for out-of-towners. All the extra touches in your home are delightful. We were so conveniently located to everything at Texas A&M, we walked to all our activities. Casita de Cruzita is a refreshing change to staying in hotels. We will let our friends know all about it. Thank you for being so easy to work with and making our visit to Parent’s Weekend so easy and enjoyable."

And as college students, any meal provided by a parent is great!! The location of the house was awesome. We did not have to worry about parking. It was great!! Thanks for letting us stay. It made Ring Day even more special than it was already!!"

You have a very nice home and it made our two families feel at home as we had a great time with our two daughters and all their friends. The location is terrific!

"Thank you for sharing your fabulous home with us. We loved everything from the minute we walked in. The bed was sooo comfortable in the Safari Room! We look forward to coming back in the future. I will admit that you never know what a house really looks like when you see it online for a vacation rental. IT WAS FABULOUS!!! It was everything we could have asked for and more. You should be proud of your work on the house and I know your mom would be too."

I passed out several brochures........I really think you will get a few phone calls regarding future rentals. Everyone loved your home! It was absolutely perfect for us......we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. We will still be attending football games this fall so we will be giving you a call for future rentals."
Sherry and Leo Mencacci & Shelly ('07) - Galveston, Texas
"What a great place! Casita de Cruzita was perfect for the week. It is so roomy with such great decor that it makes you feel so at home. It is centrally located in the middle of College Station, and so easy to find. Everyone that visited us commented on how wonderful it was. If anyone you know has traveled with a softball team will tell you how costly it is and how you hate spending so much time in a hotel. A standard hotel cost us about $700.00 per week per couple this cost us right at $500.00 for the week. We were in College Station for 18U Nationals which is the last tournament of the year for fastpitch softball by the time you get this far you are so tired and just want to go home. Renting Casita de Cruzita was so wonderful that we did not want to leave when it was over. We cooked every night and did not have to eat fastfood and spend the extra money on restaurants. On the way back home, we all were trying to find what weekend we would have available to go back. What a wonderful experience we have found a new way to travel to see softball. Thanks again for sharing your wonderful place with us."
Mary DuBois, Coach of the Mystixx - Houston, Texas
