The entire stay was great. Very clean house, comfortable beds and two bathrooms were great. We needed to extend our stay by one day, contacted our host and within 10 to 15 minutes they had us taken care of us. Wonderful service and accommodations. We will be staying again.

Absolute gem in Hico! Beautiful home & close to everything.
This home is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in the door you feel immediately at home. Normally places are smaller in person than they look in the photos but that was not the case with this home. It was large with gorgeous furnishings. The backyard was our favorite space with lots of room to hang out with family, grill, play games, etc. The owner has thought of every detail and have included it all within the home. From paper plates to spices, toiletries and more…it has it all. We also enjoyed how close the home is to downtown Hico and walked for coffee, breakfast, lunch and dinner daily. We will definitely be staying here again in the future!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this charming house. Very convenient to the town and the wedding we attended at Bull Lion Ranch. One suggestion would be an iron and ironing board, otherwise the accommodations were over the top!!!

Great birthday weekend house!
This property is a great place to stay. The decor is well done and the house was clean and had everything needed. The outside area was great! Ladder ball, corn hole, a nice fire pit with lots of seating and a nice table with umbrellas. They even provided firewood. We’d definitely stay here again. We only had adults staying but there was also a nice play area if you had littles.

Cute House in Hico
My husband and I were very pleased with this house. It was beautifully decorated and they supplied everything we needed. We travel from Houston to take care of family in Stephenville and we ususally stay at a hotel there. This was so much nicer and we enjoyed our stay.

The house was exactly as listed and even better. Easy walk back and forth to the shops and restaurants. Very comfortable place that is furnished very nicely with luxurious bedding and bathroom towels. Kitchen was well supplied. And the sitting and dining areas made for a great family weekend. The houses around it are a little rough but we didn’t have any problems.

Wow!! This property is one of the best rentals we’ve stayed at. It was very clean and the owners thought of everything you would need. Rooms were spacious and comfortable.
