Lovely home

We had such a nice stay at this home. The check in process was easy and the owners kept in touch all during our stay just to make sure we had what we needed. Location is great- just 5-6 minutes to Baylor and the Silos. Everything was clean and comfortable. Will definitely stay here again.

Waco Oasis close to Baylor and Magnolia Market

We will definitely be visiting this home again! It’s proximity to Baylor University and the silos, which were two points of interest for us, made it an ideal location for our family. The neighborhood is safe and quaint, and the home is clean, updated, very lovely.

Excellent Waco Stay

This was my second time staying in this charming property. First time was with my then high school-aged son and a few friends and this time with my aging parents who needed us to be in a one-story property. The property is updated and super clean with special touches for guests throughout. The location close to downtown Waco and to Baylor. Communication with the property manager was excellent. Highly recomemnd!

Sports Weekend in Waco

We picked the house based on proximity to Cameron Park and the house provided exactly what we needed. A good common area for our group to start and finish the day at and easy commutes to Cameron, Brazos East and Lake Waco Golf Club, not to mention an even shorter drive to Magnolia. Will try to get it again if we come back next year for the Waco tourney.

This was a great stay. The house has been lovingly appointed with great furnishings and necessities. The kitchen and HUGE refrigerator were great. If you had two families or one big one, this house would suit all your needs. We were in Waco during the storms so one day we spent inside all cozied up on the couch watching movies which was a great respite for us. The place is also very close to downtown Waco, there is a coffee shop couple blocks away, a cool bar within walking distance and plenty of shops just a mile or two down the street from the house. Great stay in a quiet and lovely neighborhood.
