The Neighborhood:

Prime South Abilene Location



Tucked into a quiet residential pocket of South Abilene, this home puts you minutes from everything the city has to offer while keeping you away from the noise. You're just 2 minutes from Grover Nelson Park for an easy morning walk, and 1–4 minutes from the Taylor County Expo Center, Abilene Zoo, and Dodge Jones Youth Sports Center — perfect if you're in town for a tournament, rodeo, livestock show, concert, or a family day out.



Foodies are in for a treat here. You're 1–2 minutes from Lytle Land & Cattle Company, a local favorite for chicken-fried steak, and about 7 minutes from the Beehive Restaurant, a downtown Abilene institution known for its steaks and prime rib (worth the wait on weekends). Several more standout spots — Copper Creek, Twisted Root, Cork and Pig Tavern — are all within a 10-minute drive.



History and culture lovers can head to Frontier Texas!, an award-winning interactive museum, or stroll the whimsical Adamson-Spalding Storybook Garden, both about 6–7 minutes away. Students, parents, and visitors of Abilene Christian University, McMurry University, and Hardin-Simmons University will find themselves 8–11 minutes from campus.



Flying in or out? Abilene Regional Airport is a quick 4-minute drive. Want to get outdoors? Abilene State Park is about a 40-minute trip south for hiking, camping, and swimming.



Whether you're here for a youth sports tournament, a college visit, or just passing through West Texas, this home puts you close to it all.

At Willow Way — Central Abilene, Minutes from Everything



At Willow Way puts you right in the middle of the action, just 1 minute from Taylor Telecom Arena and Shotwell Stadium, and 2 minutes from Lytle Land & Cattle Company and Grover Nelson Park. Flying in? Abilene Regional Airport is only 4 minutes away.

Pet-Friendly Accommodations

We love welcoming well-behaved dogs to this property! Just a few things to know before you book:

• Pet fee: $75 per pet, per reservation (a one-time flat fee, no matter how long you stay)

• Dogs only, please — we're not able to accommodate cats at this property

• Let us know ahead of time: Please mention your pet(s) when you book so we can prepare properly

A Few Guest Responsibilities

• Please keep an eye on your pet and avoid leaving them alone in the property for long stretches

• If your dog will be alone at any point, they'll need to be crated

• Pets should stay off furniture and beds unless we've said otherwise

• We ask that you cover the cost of any damage your pet causes (charged to the card on file)

• Barking that disturbs the neighbors may lead to extra fees or an early checkout, so please help us keep the peace

Pet Waste

We ask that you clean up after your pet promptly — both indoors and in the yard — throughout your stay. Please do one final check before you check out: any pet waste left in the yard, on patios, or anywhere on the property will result in a significant additional cleaning fee charged to the card on file, so we really appreciate a thorough sweep before you go.

A Couple of Important Notes

We're not able to accommodate cats or exotic pets at this property — if one is brought without approval, it will result in a substantial fee in addition to any repair and cleaning costs. Small dogs can be requested and approved case-by-case before check-in, but unfortunately, we can't approve dogs over 100 lbs (this includes Emotional Support Animals).

*Registered and papered Service Dogs are always welcome.
