Betsy’s home is located in the very nice, quiet, peaceful and walkable neighborhood of Arlington Heights, right outside of downtown Fort Worth. The home is kept well maintained, and clean bedding, towels are always available when needed. The room is very comfortable, as well as the bed and linens. Betsy is very accommodating, responsive, and routinely checks in to make sure you have everything you need for your stay.
Walkable: There is a very walkable Local Taco shop on Montgomery about a 5 minute walk from the front door that opens early and closes late. They sell breakfast and gourmet tacos. And some cute shops and salons that are about 10-15 minute walk down Camp Bowie in the opposite direction.
The home is a short 10 minute walk from Dickies Arena, Will Rogers, Museum/Cultural District, The Gardens, and access to The Dash (every 15 minute) bus on Gendy/Harley AND the Fort Worth BCycle bikes for rent. The Dash can take you anywhere from Montgomery to the downtown Central Station and back.
On the opposite side of Montgomery Street, it’s an even shorter 6 minute walk to the Camp Bowie bus stop for Bus 2. Another 15 minute bus route that takes you directly to downtown.
Drivable or Bus Rides:
Only 5-8 minute drive or bus ride to the nearest grocery store, (Organic Natural Grocers, Tom Thumb, or Super Target).
5-8 minute drive or bus ride into the West 7th district/Crocket Row (food & nightlife) area. As well as the Montgomery Plaza that offers lots of shopping and restaurants too.
(West 7th is walkable if you can. It’s about 1 mile away and 20 minutes to get down into the shops) Lots of restaurants, quick eats, some shops, salons, and nightlife there. Also a gym and movie theater.
Either bus ride or car ride will take you about 15 minutes or less to Downtown/Sundance Square, about a 5 mile trip. 20 minutes to the downtown Central Station that connects to other bus routes, or the train, if you’re heading to DFW airport or to Dallas.
Other close places: Fort Worth Stockyards, access to the Trinity Trails and Parks along Trinity River, Hulen Street, The Shops at Clearfork, and Magnolia Avenue.
