This house was beautiful and included all the amenities any traveler would need on the road. I appreciated access to the garage where I parked my SUV during a severe thunderstorm with hail. My daughter attends ACU which was literally 1 block away from the rental. My sister traveled with me and said she got great sleep bc the bed was comfortable. I am so grateful for having access to a home rental that provided a space where my daughter could spend quality time with me. Thank you for opening this home to those of us who travel to Abilene to be with our college students.

Love this House!

This is the second time our family has stayed at this house and we absolutely love it! It has so many personal touches and it works perfectly for our family of six. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is well-equipped, the AC works well and they have two hot-water heaters! We hope to stay here again on our next visit to Abilene!

Family Weekend in Abiline

Can’t say enough great things about this home & the property manager. We had a family weekend visiting our ACU student & this property was definitely home away from home. The house is extremely clean, comfortable & plenty of room for our crew of 4-5. We will return! And the location can’t be beat especially when the temps lower bc you can literally walk to the ACU campus.

Wonderful home

This home is beautiful and absolutely perfect. It is well set up for having family over for dinner as well with a lot of dining space. It is wonderfully stocked with coffee, spices, and every pot pan and utensil you could ever need. The beds are very comfortable and the home immaculate. I highly recommend.

Always the perfect stay

We have stayed in this home multiple times over the last few years and we've loved it everytime. Communication from the management team is fantastic. The home is always impeccable and well stocked with things for morning coffee (which is a must for our group). :) The kitchen is fully functional and has everything you need if your plans involve cooking for hungry college kids (which ours always did). Great space for everyone. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home with us!

Great Location, Inadequate Air Conditioning

This property was in the perfect location for our family staying in Abilene for a workshop for 1 week. The house was clean and had nicely appointed bedrooms and bathrooms. Our only disappointment was that the air conditioning on the right side of the house was not adequate. The house has two air conditioning units and it was obvious that one of the outside units was new (servicing the left side of the house and keeping it nice and cool) and the other unit was the original unit (servicing the left side of the house). The left side has the master bedroom, kitchen and large laundry room. There was a large floor fan in the master bedroom that was on when we arrived, so it is apparent that the property manager knew the AC was not adequate for that side of the house. Our stay was in July, so the AC was really important to us. Otherwise, we had a great stay!
