The home was very accommodating, quiet and the host had great communication with me. The home had everything my family needed and loved the cows, pickleball and hot tub.

From the owner: “Thank you for your kind comments. We’re glad you enjoyed the location. We appreciate you reaching out, and we’re happy we were able to assist with any concerns. We’re always here to help and are always making improvements based on guests’ feedback.”
Lydia’s place is absolutely gorgeous both inside and out. I couldn’t help but admire the craftsmanship of the home, which is very spacious and cozy at the same time. The hot tub is very well kept and clean and was a nice break after a long day home shopping in Abilene. Communication with Lydia was very simple and she is very responsive and accommodating when she’s able. We will definitely be booking again should the need arise in the area.

Chuck - thank you for your 5-star review! We love having guests like you who appreciate and enjoy the property. Thank you for taking great care of it during your stay. We would love to have you back and maybe we can get the weather to cooperate a little more next time!
Very clean, well furnished house for a comfortable weekend getaway. Perfect house, close enough to the city but far enough away to experience a beautiful sunset.

From the Owner: "Thanks so much for the great review, Shaun! We are glad you and the grandkids had a great stay. We love our guests."
I also not want to write this review. I want to keep this place my little secret. My family and I had such a wonderful stay. The place was super clean and had every touch of home you can think of. Pots, Dishes, Coffee, washer, dryer and so much more. The place was spacious and beds were comfortable. There was a Hot Tub and Pickle Ball court for us to use. We went to visit my daughter in college and she wanted to chill, eat homemade food and watch movies. This was the perfect place for our family hang out. The owners were very nice, communicated and very responsive. We are definitely looking forward to our next stay.
