Great little house!
We loved our short stay at the Rustic Chic Guesthouse in Abilene. It was super close to ACU, very clean, and quaint. We will definitely stay again as we visit Abilene often to see our kids.

Extremely clean, good communication and will definitely return!
Property owner was very cordial and professional in text communications. Check-in was a breeze and simple, as well as check out. Simple reasonable 'house' rules. Host even offered upon arrival, local dining recommendations if we wished.

Wonderful stay, wonderful host
I stayed for two nights for an interview at Hardin-Simmons. This was such a perfect place to stay to be comfortable and close to campus. I had never been to Abilene, so I really had no idea on food options and was pleasantly surprised by all the great suggestions this host had for me. Overall, the host was so kind through our messages, the property is clean and has an awesome vibe in a nice neighborhood! Hope to be back soon.

Abilene Get-a-Way
This short-term rental was the cleanest and well stocked unit I have ever stayed in. I would have sworn this accommodation was built just last week.
The owner was very friendly and easy to communicate with.
Highly recommended. Easily 5 Stars.

Cozy and Clean!
We were traveling to have a small getaway for our anniversary and this was perfect for that! The place was so comfy and super clean, perfect for couples. The check in process was easy and clearly communicated. The hosts gave us lots of recommendations. We loved it so much, we want to visit Abilene again and stay longer, so we can visit all the recommended spots and stay in this cozy Vrbo.

Cozy Get-away
We really enjoyed our stay in this cozy guesthouse. It was very well-stocked and had everything we needed for our stay. The guesthouse is cleverly designed to use every bit of space. It isn't far from a very busy road so we did have to use a noise app each evening which worked very well. We especially appreciated the curtains which blocked the light while also having blinds for privacy. The house has an easy to use keypad lock and parking is right in front of the property. If you are going to be in Abilene, you can't go wrong by staying at the Rustic Guesthouse!

Brett had taken care to have anything we might need available to us. He was super responsive and quick to answer any questions I had about the property. It was a cute property with a nice shower, good towels and full kitchen. There were also nice dishes and a good selection of pots, pans and kitchen utensils.

My son and I came to see the colleges in town and absolutely loved staying in this very unique and adorable house! Suited us just fine and was very comfy! The bed upstairs was comfortable and slept well!! They provided everything needed to make our stay perfect! I had a hard time figuring out the tv for some reason but they were quick to help us figure out how to get it worked out!

Super cute, quiet, comfy
My son and I were driving cross country to move him to college and stopped here for one night. The owner Brett stayed in touch with us prior to our arrival and answered questions promptly. The house itself was wonderful! I loved the decor and the small touches throughout. It's clear that a lot of thought went into outfitting this house for guests. Bed was super comfy. Nice shower.
The house is located in a quiet neighborhood and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We would absolutely stay here again should our travels ever bring us back to Abilene.
