First-Class Stay with a Top-Notch Host

This well-decorated place was comfortable and stocked with everything we needed, even for a full-week stay. It’s quiet, homey, and thoughtfully designed. We’ve stayed in many vacation rentals with great hosts, but Brett stands out as the most responsive of them all.My husband is working on a project in the area, so we’ll definitely try to stay again, if we can snag availability. We also enjoyed seeing the property’s renovation featured in Abilene Scene magazine. It’s definitely a first-class stay!

Brett was an amazing host! The Lasso Lounge was cozy and comfortable. Location was great with a Walmart up the street and easy access to the highway. Brett stayed engaged with us and made sure my fiance and I were comfortable and had everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone traveling to Abilene! Thanks Brett!

What a wonderful stay at this property!! This property was for my son's Honeymoon night and it was just perfect! Such a quaint and wonderful night for them, the place was adorable and beautiful and they said they couldn't have picked a better place for their honeymoon! I highly recommend this place, not just for honeymooners, but for anyone looking for a super nice place to stay!

Second Visit — My First Choice When Visiting Abilene

This is my second stay at the Lasso Lounge, and it is always the first place I check for availability when I'm planning a trip to Abilene. You get so much more here than at a hotel room. The bed is very comfortable, the towels are thick and soft, and the kitchenette is handy for making a quick breakfast. Rustic chic is a good description for the place — it's done with style and fun. The location is great — right next to Hardin-Simmons and Hendrick Medical Center, but honestly, it's easy to get anywhere in Abilene from here. And you don't have to deal with the crazy scary frontage roads where most hotels in town are located. Communication with the host is fast and easy. You feel welcome.

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.

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.
