About this house rental
🏡 Retro-cool 3BR/3BA mid-century home in Abilene with a private backyard oasis — fire pit, covered patio, and a fun-loving game area. Sleeps a crowd comfortably and feels like home the moment you walk in.
The Space:
Welcome to **Eagle's Nest**, a beautifully updated mid-century modern home tucked into a quiet Abilene neighborhood. With vaulted, beamed ceilings, walls of windows, and warm wood-toned finishes throughout, this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home blends retro charm with modern comfort — perfect for families, groups of friends, or business travelers who want space to spread out.
Inside, the open-concept living and dining area is anchored by a dramatic vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and a rustic sliding barn door, flowing seamlessly into a stylish dining space that seats six under a modern pendant chandelier. The fully equipped kitchen features white cabinetry, granite-style counters, and stainless steel appliances, making it easy to cook for the whole group.
Down the hall, three distinct bedrooms each bring their own personality: a Texas-themed room with a plush storage bed and cozy armchair nook, a coastal-inspired primary suite, and a flexible third bedroom (bunk room) with its own private en-suite bath. A dedicated laundry room and three full bathrooms — including a charming vintage tiled bath — round out the interior.
Step outside and the fun really begins. The backyard is an entertainer's dream: a covered patio with dining and grilling space, a second gathering area centered around a cozy fire pit and Adirondack chairs, string lights overhead, a tree swing, and a spacious lawn shaded by mature trees. There's an additional fridge on the patio for extra items and easy access to a cold soda while hanging out with friends and family!
And don't miss the "Eagle's Nest" game area, complete with a combination pool/poker table, cue rack, and its own neon sign — ready for game night.
Whether you're here for a family reunion, a girls' trip, or a relaxing home base while visiting Abilene, Eagle's Nest delivers space, style, and a genuine sense of place.
Guest Access:
Guests have full access to the entire home, including all three bedrooms and bathrooms, the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen areas, the laundry room, and the private backyard with its covered patio, fire pit lounge, and game area. The whole property is exclusively yours for the duration of your stay — no shared spaces with the host or other guests.
