Stainless steel appliances elevate the cooking experience, providing a perfect balance between old-world charm and modern functionality.

The home was not entirely move-in ready when I arrived, but the host was extremely responsive to anything I found that needed repair. The host was very friendly and quick to address any deficiencies. Overall, a positive experience.

Perfect getaway in Abilene

Great central location. Very quiet and safe neighborhood. Literally 10 minutes to anywhere in town. Very comfortable for even a family with 2 teenagers. The hayloft had many personal touches that made it feel more like home. Would stay again.

Wood Heaven

If you like to be surrounded by wood, this is your place. We felt like we were in a mountain cabin, yet we were in the middle of the city. Everything worked great especially the air conditioner!! Decor was really interesting and was fun to investigate. We like to cook and it had everything we needed for a nice meal. Location was perfect near the college and the downtown area. We would definitely stay here again if we find ourselves in Abilene.
