This is a great house to stay the weekend when visiting Abilene. Very nice rental unit. It was clean, modern, everything functioned properly and didn't see any bugs inside. The neighbor hood is a little iffy in terms of age and upkeep, but we had no problems. Also back sliding door needs to be fixed. Other than that, it was a great stay.

Nice place, especially for the rate, and the owners were really easy to communicate with. Like most houses in this part of Abilene the house sits on a slant and you can feel that when you walk around. It seems as though the remodel was recent, save the carpet in the primary bedroom.

This was a nice property. The home was very nicely remodeled. We had no complaints. The neighborhood was quiet and the houses were spaced out fairly well. It appeared to be an older neighborhood but accommodating. The driveway is a concrete circle drive, so that is handy for clean entrance and egress of the house. There is a small Walmart close by and multiple restaurants within a few miles of the home. All said, it was a nice stay. I would say it is a trustworthy home and area.

We bought this home to share and enjoy when visiting our ACU student! We hope you find peace and serenity while staying at Azule Cottage.

Why they chose this property

This is a quick and easy location to get to nearby hospital, Universities, and downtown. Also not too far from Convention Center and Expo complex for rodeos, athletics, and shows.

What makes this property unique

Reclaimed structure used in a restorative manner throughout the house. Coffered ceilings and craftsman posts in the living room bring the 1940’s charm to a renovated cutie!
