It also has a lot of parking a beautiful kitchen and very comfy bedding. Would definitely recommend for anyone who is looking for a stay in Abilene and would definitely use again when I visit there.

Muy bonito el pequeño lugar me encantó todo muy buen sitio a pesar de lo pequeño que era el lugar me sentí como en casa de lo maravilloso que era el lugar

A Wonderful Stay We absolutely loved our stay! Allison’s place was beautifully decorated with a stylish and unique touch—it truly felt warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully put together. We especially appreciated arriving to a clean home with Christian music playing and a beautiful cake waiting for us! What a sweet and thoughtful touch. ❤️ The location was also perfect for us, only about 15 minutes from Abilene Christian University. The only minor downside was that an occasional sewer smell would sweep through the property every now and then. We’re not sure if it was related to the nearby construction, and thankfully, it never lasted very long. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would absolutely stay here again. We’re so grateful for Allison’s hospitality and the peaceful, Christ-centered atmosphere. She went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and cared for. Thank you, Allison, for making our stay so special! God bless you! 🙏❤️

Vesta

It definitely was the construction.  I smelled it when I was outside.  Thankfully they are done.  Thank you for your review.  I'm glad you loved my home.  Please stay with us again 🙏

Allison

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Nathan and  his team made our stay a delight with personalized touches, a very clean home, and prompt communication. We would absolutely choose to stay at this property again. This was one of the best vacation rental experiences we have had. Kudos to Nathan and the team!

We absolutely loved our stay! B&B Hosting was very responsive and helped us feel more than prepared for our stay. They went above and beyond and made our trip feel extremely special. 10/10 would absolutely recommend!

Christian

We will absolutely stay here again. This was a wonderful place to celebrate my 40th with my family. Thank you so much for hosting us. It was the best weekend.

We had a wonderful stay! The home was absolutely beautiful, clean, comfortable, and exactly as pictured. The hosts were fantastic and very responsive throughout our stay. We truly enjoyed our time here and would absolutely recommend this home to anyone visiting the area. Thank you for a great experience—we would happily stay again!

Heather

Very nice group of host. Prompt responses

Carrie

Tyler

This place is absolutely stunning! Words truly can not explain the beauty of the sunrise and sunset you receive! The pool was perfect with the waterfall and hearing Mother Nature in the background. We have been needing a quiet couples getaway for some time, this was the perfect place to disconnect from our jobs and unwind in a peaceful place. With a mini fridge on premises, you'll have to take non-perishable foods as well. We took an extra cooler. This was the perfect location for a much needed R&R mini vacation! We will be back to experience the hot tub in full effect (the heat was up to 101 degrees, which made the pool feel heated)! I recommend this place 100%.

Stella

It was great place loved the pool and everything

Hunter

This house was amazing! It was everything the description said and more. Cute, charming, and homey! The neighborhood was so nice and we felt very safe. Our family loved hanging out in the backyard. Our boys loved all of the games y’all had for us to play. My husband and I enjoyed sitting around the fire pit even though it was too hot to turn on. The ambiance was perfect! We really enjoyed staying here! Thank you for the handwritten note and cookies! That was so sweet!

Aimee

Beautiful setting and amazing hosts. While on an errand, my family had a car wreck and Nathan and the B&B Team went over and beyond kind and helpful to bring us breakfast and cupcakes for my sons Birthday after I spent the night in the ER.  I am blown away and so grateful for their patience and generosity. I’ve never had better hosts and we’ve stayed a lot of places. Thanks to the BnB Team!

Sarah

Perfect spot for a girls college reunion trip!

Jessica

Excellent stay! The hosts truly made us feel right at home. We were celebrating my uncle’s birthday, and they went above and beyond to make the experience special. When we arrived, they had personalized birthday messages displayed on the TV screens, which was such a unique and thoughtful touch! They also surprised him with a birthday bowl filled with a few goodies. The house was beautiful, clean, and exactly as pictured. We had a wonderful experience and would absolutely stay here again!

Karen

We were looking for a place in Abilene to celebrate a birthday, visit with family and relax before the school year begins. This place was hands down the best choice for us! They went above and beyond to help us celebrate by setting out a balloon, hand written card and birthday treats. The kids playroom was a fantastic way to keep kiddos busy while adults were visiting, they really enjoyed the setup in there! The house itself sleeps 9 people comfortably and was very clean. Host was responsive and very friendly. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us and we hope to stay again soon!! P.S. the pool was AMAZING!!!

Ashlie

Thank you so much for sharing this! We're really glad you chose our home for such a special birthday and family time. It was so much fun putting together the little birthday surprises, and we're happy they helped make the celebration extra special. 🎈🎂  We're glad the kids enjoyed the playroom too, and we're definitely happy to hear the pool was a hit! 😊 It sounds like everyone was able to relax and have a good time before the school year started.  Thank you for taking such great care of the home and for the sweet review. We'd love to have you and your family back again soon!

Patricia

Amazing place. Aubrianna was an amazing host. Communication with her was very good. She even placed a gift inside for our softball girls. The arcade was very entertaining for our girls and even the adults. The home was very clean and had everything we needed inside. Would recommend this place to anyone.

Chad

Thank you so much for the awesome review! We're so glad Aubrianna was able to make your stay special and that the girls enjoyed the arcade and the little surprise we left for them. Sounds like the adults had some fun with it too! 😄  And congratulations on winning the championship! 🏆🥎 That's so exciting, and we're happy you got to celebrate such a big win during your stay.  We really appreciate you choosing our place and hope to see you and the team back in Abilene next time!

Aubrianna

One of the most hospitable stays I've ever had! The accommodations were immaculate and the hosts were amazing. 10/10 !

We're so glad you had such a great stay and that everything was comfortable and well taken care of.  We truly appreciate you choosing to stay with us and sharing such kind words. It was a pleasure having you, and we hope to see you again sometime! 😊

I can't say enough good things about our stay at the Waffle House! From the moment we booked, the hosts went above and beyond to make our family's gender reveal celebration feel truly special. The house was beautiful, clean, spacious, and exactly as described. The backyard, pool, pergola, and outdoor spaces were perfect for spending time with family and creating unforgettable memories. What impressed us the most was the hospitality. The team paid attention to every detail, checked in with us before our arrival, helped us prepare for the celebration, and made us feel genuinely welcome throughout our stay. Thank you, Rebecca, Nathan, Kristi, and the entire B&B Hosting Team, for your kindness and for helping us celebrate such an important milestone in our lives. We are incredibly grateful and would absolutely stay here again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Thanks so much for the great feedback! We're glad the home was clean and that staying in touch with our team was easy.  It was a pleasure having you, and we appreciate you choosing our home for your trip. Hope to have you back again sometime!

Stephanie

The Photos did not give this place justice it was even more spectacular in person, the beds were super comfy the bathrooms and showers were all really nice they even put some waters in the fridge for us and some snacks in the kitchen, the backyard was beautiful. The AC worked really well as it was 104 outside and we were very comfortable in the house, there was a coffee maker for in the morning  and lots of fun games that were really neat. I would 11/10 recommend staying here to anyone and the host were super nice and made the whole experience perfect.

Brian

Thank you so much for the amazing review! We're so glad the home turned out even better in person and that you enjoyed everything from the comfy beds and nice bathrooms to the backyard, games, and little snacks we left for you.  We're especially happy the AC kept you comfortable with it being 104° outside! 😅 That's definitely Texas heat.  It was a pleasure hosting you, and we really appreciate the 11/10 recommendation. We'd love to have you back anytime! 😊

We have stayed with B&B Hosting multiple time and every time they go above and beyond to make our stay as comfy and smooth as possible. Definitely a fan of the host and the home.

Andrea

Emmanuel

Thank you! We're so glad you enjoyed your stay and already want to come back. We really appreciate it and look forward to having you again! 😊

What a great host! This is the second time I’ve booked this place and it doesn’t disappoint. Everything you’re looking for, they have it. Pet friendly they even had a bed and dog bowls ready to use. They’re very communicative/understanding. We had a late check-out which caused us to fall behind on timing, thankfully they understood and were very kind about it! I recommend this place, including the hostess!

Abel

Thank you for coming back to stay with us again! We really appreciate your continued support and are so glad the place still had everything you needed.  We're happy your pup was comfortable too—we love being able to provide the little extras like the dog bed and bowls. And no worries at all about the late check-out, we're glad we could work with you and make things a little easier.  Thanks again for recommending us and for trusting us with your family and crew. We’ll be happy to have you back anytime! 🐾😊

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We absolutely loved our stay at the Blue Bonnet Retreat! The house is beautiful, incredibly clean, comfortable, and very well cared for. The location was perfect for us and made everything so convenient. The thoughtful welcome gift was such a sweet surprise and really showed the extra care the hosts put into making their guests feel at home. We genuinely loved this place and would absolutely stay here again. Thank you for such a wonderful stay! ❤️

Thank you so much for the sweet review! We're really glad you felt at home at Blue Bonnet Retreat and enjoyed the house, location, and all the little touches.  And we have to laugh about the towels 😂 We're happy they passed the test! We love being able to leave a little welcome gift for our guests, so it means a lot to hear that it made you feel special.  It was a pleasure having you stay with us. We'd be happy to have you back anytime! ❤️

Host was very nice a response. Anwsered questions quickly. Home was cute and cozy. Nice quiet location.

Tawnya

Thanks so much for the review! We're glad you found the home cute and cozy and enjoyed the quiet location. We’re also happy we could answer your questions quickly and make things easy during your stay.  We really appreciate you staying with us and hope to see you again!

As a frequent traveler for work, my review may not hold the same significance for a family. However, I can confidently say that my experience was absolutely wonderful. You and your family will thoroughly enjoy every aspect of the house or Papa’s cabin in the back. The location further enhances the experience, making this Airbnb one of the best places to stay in Abilene.

Daniel

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! It means a lot coming from someone who travels often for work. We're really glad the house and Papaw's Cabin gave you a comfortable place to stay and that you enjoyed the location too.  We appreciate you choosing to stay with us and sharing your experience. Thanks again for the recommendation, and we hope to have you back in Abilene next time you're in town!

This is a conveniently located house that was well suited for our family reunion -- a large dining room table, two seating areas, a second eating area that we used for the group jigsaw puzzle, and an excellent HVAC system with fans that kept us comfortably cool in the hot Texas summer.

Joanne

Thank you so much! We're glad the house worked out well for your family reunion and gave everyone plenty of room to gather, eat, and relax.  We're especially happy to hear the AC and fans kept everyone comfortable during the Texas heat! It sounds like the extra spaces came in handy too, especially for the group puzzle. 😊  Thanks again for staying with us. We really appreciate it and hope to host your family again sometime!

Very nice place, lots of room inside and out. The kids loved the backyard and so did the adults. The shade for the yard is strategically placed which helps a ton with the heat. Very nice kitchen. Bathrooms are well stocked.

Matthew

Thank you for the great review! We're glad everyone enjoyed the space, especially the backyard and the shaded areas during the heat. It's also nice to hear the kitchen setup and labeled items made things a little easier during your stay.  Thanks again for staying with us, and we're happy you enjoyed the home!

Great place to stay for our work crew. I told one of my guys about it and I think he booked it for a month:)

Thanks so much for the great review! We're glad the place worked well for your crew, and it sounds like the recommendation worked out too! 😊  We really appreciate you trusting B&B Hosting with your stay. Thanks again for choosing us, and we hope to have you or your crew back again down the road!

There was a slight miscommunication regarding check in time, but it was handled extremely professional & they took the time to personally come by the house with some goodies & gift cards. They also had some cake pops & birthday balloons for 2 birthdays that we were there for. It was all very much appreciated & we would definitely stay here again!

Thank you so much for the sweet review! We're glad we were able to work through the check-in mix-up and make your stay special, especially with the birthdays.  We loved being able to stop by with a few goodies, gift cards, cake pops, and balloons. We're so happy they were appreciated! 🎂🎈  Thanks again for staying with us, and we'd be happy to have you back anytime!

I stay in this house a couple times and still the same clean,  and perfect location

We had a great stay at Patti’s Place. It was the perfect space to relax and spend time with family. We used the pool everyday and was a must in the hot weather!

Nicole

"We had a tough time during our stay due to a major allergy flare-up. Not sure what the specific trigger was—could be pet hair, dust, or even a strong detergent—but the environment was tough on our allergies. Just a note for future travelers who might be highly sensitive to their surroundings. Otherwise, for anybody else who isn't prone to allergies, it’s a perfectly fine place to stay." On a sidenote, the price for this place is fair even though I did request a discount for a long stay however, I booked the same amount of days at another location for an entire house for a cheaper price The whole point of a review is to keep things, thorough, factual, and straight to the point I would recommend this for people that don’t have allergies. It’s suitable for short stay like the weekends.

Eliezer David

Hi Eliezer! I’m so sorry about your allergies!  We don’t allow pets at Mockingbird Lane.  It is possible the neighbors have a pet.  Thank you the kind things you had to say about this cute little place!

Full sized bed, connected to a noisy main house. It’s obvious they own multiple locations and the instructions are not specific to this one location.

Breanna

Overpriced, if you’re charging over $1000 a week, you should expect people to high expectations. The place is okay it’s the size of a hotel room. I requested a one day extension, and the host kept me on hold for 3 days, and I got interrupted the last by the cleaning service knocking our door in the morning saying they were not aware someone in house. I guess he waited till last second to see if someone will book the full weekend before confirm our 1-day extension after the cleaning service left. There are extra fees it’s either holding $500 credit card deposit or pay non refundable $40. These number should be presented clearly for transparency, not a trap!

Osama

Thank you for your feedback! Regarding the damage waiver or deposit, that is disclosed in the listing. I do apologize for the delay on the extension! We had to pick up tasks to support a team mate who had to leave town to deal with a very traumatic family emergency. That did throw us behind on a few things. Your request was initially missed. It was certainly in no way intentional.   We do have regular pest control at all properties. Thank you for letting us know about this!   The deposit and waiver step was made necessary by all the work crews in town and the OTAs NOT having our backs on all the damage and a number of other issues directly connected to all of the work crews. When guests object we do consider the situation and make exceptions. Especially when the guests are families in for a weekend. I do want to say, that the work crew guests are good guests, we love having them, it’s just a sweaty, muddy, bloody, eat-in-bed at the end of the day kind of job.   I appreciate your feedback and apologize for the issues! I hope you can extend us grace on missing the extension request! It was absolutely not intentional.

Jose

The place stayed cool and the bed was soft. The place was very very clean and felt private. Would stay again hands down.

Jonathan

Great and relaxing spot, responsive host, beautiful amenities

Joseph

Nice little spot, value could be a bit better I think but very nice cozy spot for the quick weekend trip.

Nathaniel David

My trip was to Abilene was only two days, but Nathan’s place provided everything needed for a stay. Communication was superb, even in the difficult times we experienced with this past winter storm. Nathan was super helpful in guidance towards a hassle-free check-in.

Gustavo

Nice little place, Nathan was very responsive and helpful.

Kenny

My work is 100% travel so im always bouncing from one place to another so the main way i keep in touch with my friends and family is by playing games and talking on the internet. I place priority on the internet in most cases so the internet at this place was good so i would most likely come back if im ever in the area again

Johncarlo

I felt right at home like visiting my parents house and staying in my old room. The private room, separate entrance, shower, and parking were all great. I will definitely stay here again whenever I am in Abilene again. There is a good variety of local mom-and-pop restaurants nearby for a quick breakfast in the morning. Nathan was quick to respond and very helpful whenever I had questions or concerns. Definitely recommend staying here if you are visiting / or have any business in the area!

Nathan’s place was just as described. Appreciated the guest portal and them sending us a message to see how we were doing.

Guadalupe

the place was absolutely worth it and had everything needed. I enjoyed my stay with a peace of mind.
