10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Nov 2025
We stayed at the Historic Gillen House with several couples, and everyone absolutely loved it! The home is beautifully maintained, spacious, and filled with fascinating historical artifacts that make it truly unique. Every room was comfortable and welcoming—the beds were cozy, the provisions were thoughtful, and the entire place had such charm and character. We appreciated all the little touches that made our stay special. An excellent experience all around—we can’t wait to come back!

Property was clean and number of bedrooms (5) as described. It was perfect for us because we were in Lampassas for a wedding so we could stay with extended family members.

The house was awesome - it has a lot of character. But...
it was hot & humid & the AC could not keep up (got up to 79-80 degrees during the day) - took some time to cool down enough to sleep at night. Host could consider cooling the house down prior to customers' arrival. The welcome gifts were a nice touch.
It is on a busy street, but we didn't really notice the noise.
I'm hoping they got the cleaning service straightened out because the house needs a good cleaning.
The king bed downstairs could use a mattress pad to soften it up some - was very hard.
Overall....if it were cleaned better, I would book again.
I would not recommend kids with all of the antiques in the home.
