Located on 4.5 acres. Park your vehicle under covered parking and enter into an open concept home with full kitchen and laundry room.

Relax in the living room in one of four recliners built into two comfy leather sofas. Put your feet up and stream your favorite show on a Roku with Amazon Prime, Hulu, and Netflix as well as many other popular free streaming services, on a large 50 inch flat screen television. Or, enjoy a family game night with one of the many games in the game cabinet.

Each room has a television, four in all, each with a streaming device to allow everyone in your party a sanctuary of their own.

The kitchen is fully stocked everything you need to cook meals and contains a full sized gas stove, microwave and full sized refrigerator with ice maker. All you need to bring are the groceries! A gas grill is located in the front porch to cook out when the weather is nice.

You can also enjoy porch sitting on the lighted front porch or turn off the lights and do some star gazing.

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.

Potosi getaway

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.

Cozy cottage

Great place to stay, clean and best of all pet friendly. Would definitely stay here again if I’m in the area. Although I always bring my own toiletries and other things the host has put out extra items for you to use in case you forget to bring your own. That is thoughtful !

Smell was amazing walking in…..

Such a cute place family of six and 2 dogs was in our group we had a peaceful short stay. Mrs Merrie was very responsive and informative. The artwork was unique and did I mention the smell of cleanliness was wonderful. Had everything you need from coffee to spices to toiletries. Thanks for a great stay!

Great place to stay for hunting trip

Easy to get to everything in the city. Well kept house. Only thing I would is get a regular coffee maker in addition to the kuerig. That way I can brew a whole pot. I will be back.

Relaxing

Had the most wonderful time! The home and furnishings are beautiful and very comfortable. There was even a doggie door for our little dog and a beautiful fenced in porch and grassy yard. There’s nothing I would ask to improve the host and hostess were fabulous.

First VRBO, set a high standard for future.

We had a great stay in our first VRBO. Easy to set up, access and location to other family and wedding venue. Clean, smelled wonderful, comfortable for us and great grandma. We had all of the amenities of being at home. So many neat furnishings and decorations to admire. If they’ll have us, we’ll definitely book again in the future.

Close to town

It was a relaxing, comfortable place to stay. It was very close to town. Thanks for the coffee station and treats. We did not end up bringing our dog, but it was nice to know that we could have, if we had wanted to. (Our grandchildren stayed with us instead, and the bunk beds were great!)

Close to family

We had a good stay! The washing machine was not in working order, but we did not expect for them to be able to repair during our stay! If the washer was working it would have been a better stay! We packed lightly in hopes of washing our laundry!

Birthday Weekend

We had a girl's weekend to celebrate my daughter's birthday. She is a grad student at ACU. This property was close enough to town to go back and forth but nice and quite for our hang out time. The home is very well furnished. We felt like we were being hosted in someone's home. They had everything you could possibly need and encouraged us to use it. Would definitely stay again.

Great Place To Stay!

We always spend Christmas in New Mexico and need a place to stay on the way home, and Merrie’s place is perfect, we will be staying here again! The pictures don’t show how spacious the house is, or how homey Merrie has made the space for her guests. The kitchen has everything you need and if cleanliness is important (which it is to my husband and I) then look no further! It was just the two of us and our dog, but if you have kids, there is lots of room! Merrie is super responsive! We highly recommend this property!

Cozy and Comfortable

We really enjoyed the house. It was actually larger than I anticipated and super clean. The ‘Welcome’ book contained lots of interesting information. Definitely a must read for those visiting in warmer months! The little notes throughout the house were a nice touch along with the basket of goodies. I definitely recommend this place and would stay there again on our next trip to Abilene. ❤️
