My husband I stayed during here during a visit with our son and grandson who live in Waco. The house, beds and furniture are very comfortable. We would love to stay here again when we visit.
I love this house. It was the perfect setting for a weekend getaway with my older teens & college students. Clean, convenient, & comfortable! Highly recommend!
We had a great time in Waco! This property was perfect for my mom, sister, friend and I. Very clean, good location and comfortable! Would highly recommend.
What a beautiful place to stay and enjoy Waco! This home provides all the comforts of home away from home and more! Exceptionally equipped with everything you need to settle in and relax in a quiet neighborhood with family or friends! Close to Magnolia and lots of shopping and activities!
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.
We had a wonderful time visiting family in Waco and this property was perfect for us. The location is fantastic and the house is very well cared for and clean. Every amenity you could want was available. We’d definitely consider staying again.
The home was absolutely beautiful, yet so homey and inviting. The beds are so comfortable and the kitchen had everything you need, plus very high end appliances and lots of coffee! The family room seats so many people. We loved that,The rooms are very spacious! We sat on the front porch in the morning. The home is in a nice part of Waco. Thank you for a great weekend. We have already booked our next stay.
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.
We stayed a couple of nights for my daughter’s graduation. The bedding and beds were comfortable and the house was super clean. Beautiful home with a lot of character. Loved the front door and patio!
girls trip to waco! this place is close to the silos and is so precious! the house is gorgeous! Plenty of room and very clean. I would definately stay here again! the hard wood floors are beautiful!
What a wonderful place to enjoy a small group of family. So beautiful! Everything was provided. If I could give a score of TEN, I would. Roomy, clean, comfy, safe, AWESOME NEIGHBORHOOD! So close to Silos and other Waco fun!
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!
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 property is perfect. It is in a cute neighborhood that is so close to downtown, Baylor and the Silos. It was so clean and cute inside. The owner does amazing with the details. Would stay again and highly recommend. 10/10
Stayed here a few nights on a girls trip. Very happy with everything. The house was clean, had everything we needed, nice accommodations and close to the Magnolia silos. Great place to stay.
This home is simply perfect! It’s very clean, top quality, VERY roomy and every amenity imaginable! We’ve stayed twice and cannot wait to return. The neighborhood is wonderful! Gracious hosts!
