We so enjoyed our stay! The property was easy to find, very clean, enjoyed Keurig coffee, backyard and prompt responses from property manager!! We look forward to staying here again!!
This house was perfect for our trip to a cousin's wedding. There was room for our adult children and the location was great. We were close to the venue and all the attractions. Thank you for a great stay!
Clean, comfortable, safe, super close ACU and decorated really cute. Everything you need for fun weekend stay close to campus. I’d stay again and recommend for sure.
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.
Had a really great time with friends when visiting for the weekend, plus this place is great for anyone traveling through or even visiting family at any one of the three universities. Overall, very cozy place.
