My husband and I had a nice stay. The hosted welcomed us as we got there. We tried one of the recommended restaurant, Catfish Corner. It was close by and a fun place to eat.
House was cute and enjoyed being out in the country. However, the floors needed cleaning. Black pet hair covered the floor. The bedding in the master bedroom smelled soured.
We stopped here for one night on a roadtrip and it was exactly as pictured! We were extremely comfortable and would stay here again if we travel through Abilene.
Very accommodating for a quick trip for a baseball tournament. Perfect for our family and the host thinks of everything you may need for your stay!

For me, being outside of the city was a major plus. It's close enough to all the restaurants and the hospital. Pet friendly and very comfortable. We much enjoyed the stay.
Hosts treated us like family and provided us with everything we needed! Location was perfect and will be our first choice the next time we visit family in Abilene.
The home was exactly like the pictures. The hosts thought of everything, even having outlets that were very accessible. The beds were comfortable. Plenty of room!
This spot was great, looks exactly like the pictures. The hosts communicated everything we needed to know before hand and made it super easy to check in. The location was also great, close to Sunn Haus Brewery. Highly recommend staying here.
This property was very nice. It was set up and decorated nice. Made it feel homey. Owners were very friendly and helpful. The Brewery/Tap Room so close was a nice benefit.
We were unable to gain access to the cabin because the electronic lock hadn't been enabled. A few minutes on the phone with VRBO Customer Service and the host resolved the issue and we were only slightly delayed.Other than that, the cabin was exactly what we expected. Comfortable and a great location for our celebratory dinner at the Perini Steakhouse.
