SOUTH FORK INN, RANCH HOME,SLEEPS 15, DOWN THE ROAD FROM SILOS, HUGE YARD!!
Lovely large Ranch Style home, completely redone, just down the road from the Silos, just a few blocks from I35, easy access to the Waco Surf and Cable Park! It's just a half a mile to Valley Mills, where there is all kinds of Eateries, Bars, Shops, Malls, Fast Foods, Etc. This home has lots of space and plenty of beds for overnight guests! It is HANICAPPED accessible, going in the front door and from the back door and NEW WOOD DECK, taking you to a huge fire pit! The back yard has a huge Pecan Trees that provides tons of shade, and has a charcoal grill as well! Inside you will love the rustic décor and hardwood floors, and two large bathrooms! One bathroom has a walk in shower, great for wheelchair use. Four of the bedrooms are nice in size and have their own new Flat screen TV's. One bedroom is small but has its own TV as well!

The home has motion night lights through out the home, for night passage and safety, and charging outlets for easy charging of your cell phones! I named the Home, The South Fork Inn, because I sold a home in South Fork, Colorado, and brought a lot of my chairs and décor here to add the Old West, ranch style charm here! The utility room is huge, and also has an extra daybed there, and it's close to the kitchen!

Property was a great location close to area attractions. The house had been closed up for awhile and was dusty especially when we opened up trundle beds. The AC wasn't working so after the day warmed up it was very uncomfortable. Overall it served our group and we had a great time in Waco.
The house was large enough for our group without stepping all over each other. Had fully stocked kitchen- cooking and eating wise. Would definitely recommend

Nice but dirty
When we checked in we all noticed several dead bugs, dirty towels in the both bathrooms, human hair on the beds, and blood stains on one of mattresses. The house has enough rooms to accommodate a large family or group.

Property manager very nice. Responds quickly. Location was convenient but heavy traffic on road. House is a little quirky but we had a good time.
Thank you so much for hosting us at your beautiful property. Everything was perfect. I was really impressed with the quick communication and the cleanliness of your home. You went over and above to make every detail just great, and I appreciate all the hard work and dedication that you clearly put in to make your home welcoming and inviting. We would definitely like to stay with you again if we're back in the area.

Plenty of beds! Very centrally located! Be prepared for street/neighborhood noise, construction, and busy roads. House had some charm but it is older, dark and needed some updates.
I absolutely love this property. There was plenty of room. It was clean. It was well put together. Everything worked as it should come and had all the amenities for us. Would 110% recommend this place to other others and if we ever do go back to Waco, definitely staying here again.
We fully enjoyed our stay. The host was amazing and very prompt with any questions we had. We will stay in the house again if ever needed. So much room for everyone!

It was okay. Could use some new towels. It served the purpose of a gathering spot for family.
We loved staying here for homecoming. We are all BU alumni and enjoyed being so close to campus. We used the fire pit both nights we were there! There’s plenty of beds and the property is super close to H‑E‑B.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this spacious cottage. We had a wide age range of family and friends and there was plenty of space for all needs to be met. The hostess was responsive and accommodating. I highly recommend.

Weekend Family Trip
I was a little disappointed. When we first arrived, the AC was off. It was so hot inside. I really expected someone to have at least turned on the Air. It took about an hour to start feeling a cool down. There were bugs all over the house.We purchased breakfast items to cook. The oven did not work. The stove did and there was a toaster over that we made do with, but that was the only meal we tried to cook because of the oven.The back yard was big, but it needed to be mowed. We waded grass every time we had to take the dogs out. We made the best of the weekend, but for the cost for 3 nights I was very disappointed overall.
This house is conveniently located and was close to all of the things we had on our schedule. It is an older home, but is very charming and had plenty of room for our group to spread out. Debbie was very responsive when we reached out with questions, before and during our stay. Thank you Debbie.

We stayed here for a steer show. First a review of the home. It is a strange layout. The front door goes into a sunroom with two trundle twin beds. If you are leaving at odd times, you have to use the back door so you don’t wake people up. Bedroom 6 actually has 1 twin bed instead of the 3 that are listed. The Queen bedrooms off the living room has walls that do not touch the ceiling, so it gets loud if anyone is in the family room. And the barn door to that bedroom easily comes off the rails, so I got stuck in the room a few times and had to get help from outside. The laundry room was so hot, my son slept on the couch instead of that room.The second night and next morning there was no hot water. The owner will say we should have called her, but they got in at 10:00pm and left at 5:30am from the show. Out of courtesy, everyone just suffered through it. My husband originally booked this for he and my daughter and another family. Because the house said it slept 15 (actually only 13), we added another family and my kids and I decided to come for one night to see the steer show. We did not think to tell the owner because the house was accommodating to so many people. From now on, we will always call the owner. This is not listed on her description, or in the guest book, but she will charge an extra 25 per person. So, we were very surprised at an 450 additional charge at the end of our stay. My calculations would have been 300. She uses fuzzy math.
Communication with the property manager was great up until my credit card was run. The property was nothing like the pictures, it was very dirty, it had an odor that you could not even stand to be in the room, bugs were everywhere, two of the guests were even bitten, they were exposed nails from a falling down shed in the backyard. I called her and she would not respond to my phone calls. I emailed her and no response I would like a refund immediately. The house was 92 when we got there the ACs were cut completely off. Our check-in was 4 PM, we got there around 5:30. The property was filthy. We did not stay. We left the property and rented a hotel. I would like to be contacted by someone to discuss my refund immediately.

Functional at best...
This is the first time that I cannot say I was truly happy with a property. Yes, it sleeps 15 but what is being called "bedrooms" is not accurate. The laundry room had a daybed tucked in the corner. And the front porch conversion into a sleeping area reminded me of a poor summer camp, it was cold with no adequate heating/cooling.Lighting and wall switches should be labeled. There were used coffee grounds still in the coffee maker and cobwebs in the kitchen cabinets. At least two rooms did not have smoke detectors. The "shared" bathroom did not drain well and in the "master" bathroom one of the light bulbs was constantly blinking or not on at all.The good news.... a huge beautiful backyard and plenty of parking.
