Great Stay

House was modern, clean and perfect for a small family weekend visit to Abilene. Walking distance to ACU so if you are visiting for a sporting event for ACU or visiting your student it’s a perfect location. Close to everything you could need. Big backyard for hanging out and running around with kids.

Recently stayed here, in town for a wedding. Everything was clean and in good condition. The location was very convenient, a few blocks from ACU, with easy access to main roads, stores, and places to eat. Communication from the owners was quick, clear, and easy. A great stay all around.
