Clean, cozy and cute!

Loved staying here with my family for the 3A Regional track meet. Location was ideal being close to ACU, many restaurants, and the interstate. The house was extremely clean and AC worked fantastic! The host was very quick to respond (even though we did not have any issues). We enjoyed playing air hockey in the garage and washers in the backyard. We were more than pleased with this rental and would definitely stay again!!

Lovely Home

Our stay in this property by far was one of the best! The house was clean, comfortable and made us feel like it was home away from home. The neighborhood was quiet and very family oriented. We would definitely consider coming back and staying again!

Safe, Comfortable, Convenient

This property was perfect for our family of 7 who attended several events downtown and in the ACU area. It is very convenienlt locatee near the airport. The host/managers were always immediately available when needed. Bit not much was needed because they think of everything the visitor needs: quick, easy, secure access, options for eating out ( great restaurants nearby) or dining in (outdoor grill and well-appointed kitchen). Very happy with this property and its owners. 5 stars plus!

Homecoming weekend

We stayed here for the weekend to attend my daughter's homecoming festivities at HSU. The house is very cute and the layout was perfect for my parents, my daughter, my husband and myself. The house is extremely clean and there is no carpet! We will definitely stay here in the future if it is available.

Spacious stay

We had a short stay in Abilene to visit family ranging from 8-88 years old. The house was spacious, and clean. It was stocked well, had inside and outside games for the family to enjoy. In the description it said “shared pool” it was definitely that as it is a community pool. It was nice and easy to get to. I just wasn’t aware how shared it was. I had assumed that the pool wasn’t a community pool, as when I searched on VRBO for houses with pools-it would have been private. We had a great stay and the owners were responsive to my questions.

Adorable & Accommodating

We enjoyed our stay in the beautifully decorated, spacious house. The quiet neighborhood and relaxing community pool were perfect for our family and Goldendoodle puppy during our visit to Abilene.
