Our new getaway in Abilene!

This house was everything that I expected and hoped for when making the reservation--clean, spacious, quiet, and bonus of really cute and clean bedrooms. Plenty of towels, everything we needed in the kitchen...I could go on, but suffice to say that I wouldn't look for anywhere else to stay in Abilene (we come about 1-2 times a year), after this. Thank you! Enjoyed our stay very much!

Nice place

Overall great stay and a nice little house. Clean and nicely put together. The only thing I would say is that the beds are metal and my husband is a light sleeper so any time movement is made and it squeaks it will wake him up so he had difficulty resting peacefully just because of the metal bed frame. But other than that it is a great place! Has a nice little outside area in the back and it’s clean, well kept!
