The home is a bit older and looks as if it has been updated inside with flooring and paint. It has plenty of room for a large group and is in a quiet neighborhood but near a lot of restaurants and stores. The back yard was not mowed so we did not use it and the house was surfaced cleaned but could use a good deep clean.

Disliked: Cleanliness
I cannot recommend this property. This house was filthy. The floors were so bad you couldn’t walk without shoes. The bath mats may have never been washed. Dishes and flatware looked to be used and then returned to the drawers and cupboards without washing. By day 2 there were black bugs on the kitchen counters and in the food we purchased. The property was missing many items advertised: soap and shampoo dispensers were empty in both bathrooms. Only 2 washcloths and 2 hand towels provided. No hairdryer. Very few dishes. None for children. No dish towels. No ice maker. No spices for cooking. There was a cabinet full of smoke detectors not installed. Such a disappointment we left our family Christmas holiday a day early.
Smoke detectors not installed
Spices provided. Filthy. Clumps in the salt container
After host sent someone to clean the floors I went back to check and wiped them with a damp paper towel

The hosts for this property were so professional and attentive. The home was clean and restocked with the necessities. It was perfect for our large family group that was attending a wedding in Abilene. The arcade room was a hit with both the kids and the kids at heart. Thank you for a delightful stay!

Clean home in a great neighborhood. It was a quick stay for us, but we walked our dog a couple of times around the very friendly and safe area. Plenty of room in the home with amazing water pressure I with we could take home with us!!! The home is just as pictured and Josh was quick to respond if messaged.

Lots of space

The property offers lots of room for a large family. There are some great amenities. Close to shopping and restaurants. Highways are easily accessible. The cleanliness of the property was a little less desirable. Not terrible but not what I expected. Windows and sills were dirty and dusty. Oven dirty and a few things broken throughout. Dust on ceiling fans. Beds felt as if sand had been scattered in them. Would have loved to enjoy the backyard but the lawn was a bit overgrown. Overall we loved the space and area. Great property and location for the price.
