Very cute and comfortable place to stay. We came into town for a wedding so were not at the house as long as I would have liked. I was so happy to see that the coffee was available with creamer (which I had forgotten to pack), as well as a nice stash of snacks! There was also a car show and some booths Saturday morning, within walking distance! Would definitely stay again.

My Wife and I live in Stephenville and both graduated from Tarleton State University. We both work in real estate and remodeled this house in late 2022 in order to provide an exceptional stay for our guests! We love Stephenville and enjoy living here in this amazing community!

Why they chose this property

It is a very quiet neighborhood with only 1 neighbor next to the house. It is backed up the the bosque river walking trail providing a very unique experience. The Hive has a huge backyard and can access the walking trail directly from the backyard as well! It is a short walk to the square where there is shopping, food, and entertainment. It is also less than a mile to Tarleton State University!
