Brooks Retreat: Swimming! Game Room! Staycation!

Swimming pool! Pool table, ping pong, foosball & darts! Two masters! King bed! 3 TVS! Every room gets a bathroom! This place is amazing! Located smack between DFW Airport & downtown Ft Worth, near the highway, you have easy access to all Tarrant County has to offer... AT&T Cowboys Stadium, Rangers, Six Flags, Hurricane Harbor, NE Mall, Ft Worth Convention Center, museums, zoo, TCU...all within 15 miles, and yet in a quiet, residential neighborhood. You've found what you're looking for!

Lots of rooms to hang out in at this large house! Plus there are TWO master bedrooms and a kids' room with double bunks (twin/full on both) to make this house great and economical for 2 families enjoying traveling together. With the pool out back, plus lounge chairs, tables, a charcoal grill, and the game room featuring a pool table, ping pong, darts, movies and board games, AND a loaded kitchen, WiFi, and AT&T TV, everyone is sure to have a great time! When you want to run to the store or mall, grab a bite to eat, or enjoy places like the Stockyards, Six Flags, or the Rangers and Cowboys games, you're just a few miles away!

Mostly, have fun and enjoy!

Bridal Boys
The Brooks Retreat was an amazing Vrbo experience. Julie was a tremendous host and the property was in tip top shape. As we were getting ready for a wedding, we had plenty of space to hang out, play some games, and soak in some sun by the pool. 10/10 would recommend again.

Perfect Family Get Away
It was in a wonderful central location. Less than ten miles from The Stockyards and Arlington Stadium. You could stay here a week and never leave and have a blast. The entertainment options with games and the pool make it a perfect place for families. Everything was well stocked in the kitchen and bathrooms.

Great stay
We were a family traveling with 5 young children (ages 1-10) and this house was perfect for us. Plenty of space and the kids loved having the game room for entertainment. Unfortunately, due to other scheduled activities and weather we didn’t get a chance to utilize the pool but it looked awesome! Having the park right behind the gouse was a HUGE bonus! Came with plenty of essentials (towels, kitchen items, trash bags, etc.) Definitely recommend for families and groups!

Good stop for the weekend
Good location and plenty of space for our two families (4 adults, 4 kids, and 2 babies) to spread out. Pool is fenced off and secure so littles couldn't find their way there which was great. Place needed a little more cleaning, floors looked clean but then everyone's feet turned black from walking around, toilets could have used a little more work too. Overall, good stay and worked for our family weekend well!

Thanksgiving Break Vacation
We wanted to take a mini vacation while the grandkids were out of school for Thanksgiving break. Arrived Friday night. Saturday we spent the day at the Stockyards and attended the Rodeo at the Cowtown Coliseum that night while there. Sunday we spent the day at the Gaylord Texas enjoying the Christmas decorations and watching our grandkids (13 and 9) participate in the different activities they signed up for. That night we went to a Cirque de Soleil performance at the Glass Cactus. Monday we spent the day in Grapevine, the Christmas Capital of Texas. Downtown is decorated for Christmas. We saw the lightning of the town Christmas tree and fireworks. All the shops are open and food and craft vendors are packed down the middle of Main St. Lots of people enjoying the sights and everyone was getting into the Christmas Spirit. Tuesday, back home. This was one of our most enjoyable Family Vacations.

Pool + Pool table + Ping Pong = PERFECT
We were in town for our nephew’s wedding and we wanted a place where we wouldn’t be on top of each other but still be together. We all enjoyed the hotel size pool, the game room and how spacious the house was! We LOVED this place and it was perfect in every way for us! We will definitely keep it saved and be back when needed!

Great for my teens!
Excellent communication from the property owner; everything was as described. Nice neighborhood and very convenient to local stores. The swimming pool and game room was amazing for my two teens (13 and 16). We would definitely stay here again.
