I've never been to College Station specifically as it's off most of the major highways and interstates. I had a few friends that went to A&M and loved it.
I will say that's a nice part of Texas (yes, it's hot) but I live in the frickin' desert in West Texas where we get like a foot, maybe 1 1/2 feet of rain a year. Plus, you're not far from Houston, Austin and (my favorite) DFW. I'm actually super jealous as DH and I are longing to move back to that part of the state.
If you ever travel up I-35 towards DFW, save calories to stop by
the best Czech bakery in West, Texas (not to be confused with west Texas.
)
