Relaxing and Quiet

My boyfriend and I stayed here for a relaxing Valentine's weekend together, and we greatly enjoyed it. Very quiet and beautiful scenery. The place was very clean and the hot tub was a nice way to relax and unwind. The property manager was super nice and communicative. We would definitely stay again!

Property was great. Check in was great. Follow signs on Property for "the lodge" there are numerous driveways and roads. Place is on the top of the hill with spectacular views. Be prepared for rocky steep driveway and unpaved roads. Kitchen had everything we needed and we enjoyed the dark skies - we even brought our telescope. Definitely will come back

Off the beaten path

How perfect! Beautiful location about 20 min from Abilene which made this super peaceful and quiet. Surprisingly good internet. Gorgeous views to sit on the porch and just relax. Kitchen had all we needed. Spacious and confortable. Great way to spend Mother's day 2024 with two grown sons and one grandchild. We just hung out and enjoyed this getaway. For certain would stay again!
