About this property

Abilene Icon- Sky, Story, and the Western Spirit!

Howdy, y'all! Wrangle your crew and head on over to Abilene Icon, where frontier dreams come alive in the heart of Abilene! This handsome 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath bunkhouse captures the spirit of Abilene through three captivating themes: The Story, The Sky, and The Western Spirit.

Mosey on in and feast your eyes on our grand hall with ceilings as high as the West Texas sky, weathered shiplap walls, and leather seating as soft as a well-worn saddle – the perfect spot for your posse to hunker down after a day on the trail. The wide-open layout connects the main quarters with a chuck wagon-worthy kitchen and dining area where the whole outfit can belly up for home-cooked vittles. From lone star artwork to cow-print accents, frontier charm greets you at every turn.

Out back, gather 'round the campfire where the Abilene Icon mural stands tall against the rustic brick wall. As twilight falls and the string lights twinkle like stars in the Texas sky, swap tall tales or toast a marshmallow while the embers glow. Whether firing up the grill irons or settling into the comfy chairs, this outdoor territory invites you to drink in that sweet Texas evening air.

Bunk down in our themed sleeping quarters that celebrate Abilene's storied past. "The Story" room spins yarns with colorful characters from children's tales, inspired by Abilene's famed Storybook Garden where imagination runs wild. "The Sky" quarters salute the high-flying heroes of Dyess Air Force Base with its wingspread headboard, honoring the brave men and women who keep watch over our freedoms. "The Western Spirit" chambers showcase Abilene's frontier heritage with a sunset mural that'll have you dreaming of riding alongside cowboys under star-filled skies on the open range.

After a day of blazing trails through Abilene's attractions, you'll find plenty of room at the ranch with our 4 Queen beds and 1 King bed. Kick off your boots in our entertainment corner where you can challenge your sidekicks to a showdown at the shuffleboard table, stake your claim on the Xbox territory, or gather the whole posse around for some digital gaming entertainment. Just a short trot from downtown's watering holes and trading posts, Abilene Icon puts you square in the middle of all the great things Abilene has to offer!

When you're fixin' to explore beyond our fence lines, saddle up for Frontier Texas! where the Old West comes alive right before your eyes, or time your stay during the Western Heritage Classic to witness genuine cowboys displaying skills passed down through generations.

Hitch your wagon at Abilene Icon – where your Texas adventure awaits!

Saddle up for a stay packed with prairie perks! Our jumbo-sized shuffleboard table ain't your average saloon game—it's championship quality for hours of friendly showdowns. The outdoor fire pit comes stocked with firewood, ready for your marshmallow-toastin' pleasure under that big Texas sky.

Our chuck wagon kitchen boasts all the fixins a trailblazer could want, from the Keurig coffee station to every pot and pan needed for whippin' up hearty grub. After your adventures, sink into our premium mattresses topped with crisp linens softer than a a Texas-Cotton blanket.

The whole spread's equipped with lightning-fast WiFi and smart TVs in every room, so you can enjoy modern comforts while surrounded by Western charm.
