Walk to the River or Downtown. One block from Cameron Park. 1 Mile to Silos!

The River Run is a boutique and curated bungalow, one block from the fabulous Brazos River walk and entrance to gorgeous Cameron Park and its 20 miles of single track trails. Only a few blocks from downtown eateries, The Silo’s and the zoo, the home is ideally situated in a quiet little transitional neighborhood close to everything. Take a jog in the morning down the Brazos River walk and see the famous Waco Suspension Bridge and get a bite at the many food trucks and small businesses close by. Evening walks by the river reveal lovely views of the water and beautiful animal sculptures line the way - a perfect opportunity for your next selfie:)
The home is so darling, curated and considered for your enjoyment. Two bedrooms and one bath will comfortably house your party and the kitchen is fully stocked and functional with all necessary appliances and cooking utensils, should you desire to stay in.
Relax on the full-width front porch or chill out in the very secluded and fenced off back yard in the red Adirondack chairs, under the string lights.

The house has been a multiple years labor of love for us, as we took it to the studs, and took our time putting it back together. We feel that it is finally ready to release into our vacation rental fleet, and we can’t wait to host you here! The River Run is a perfect home away from home and a launching pad to all things Baylor, Waco and Magnolia.
See you soon!

Wish we stayed longer
Needed a one night stay in order to make a trip to Dallas/Fort Worth extra special with a quick stay in Waco. We found this gem of a home that allowed a one night stay and it was so cute and perfectly placed in town that we wished we had more time to enjoy the town and the ammenities of the property. From the front porch to the cute backyard fire pit area, there are so many ways to enjoy the home. It’s so close to the river and easy access to downtown. The neighborhood felt perfectly safe and we had no issues.

Perfect location!
We had an amazing time staying here. Josh was so kind and responsive and gave GREAT recommendations for our time in Waco. We were close to the Silos and to other attractions downtown. The beds were so comfortable and my friends and I enjoyed our slow mornings drinking coffee and visiting on the porch! Would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend for others to stay!

Cozy and Perfect!
This was my 2nd stay at River Run. It’s just perfect! Great location, quiet and safe little neighborhood, and so very comfortable. One of my favorite features in this house is the electric fireplace. It really warms up the room and brings a lovey ambiance. It was freezing temps the day of arrival, but the owners turned on the heat and had it all warmed up! Such lovely hosts. Super accommodating, responsive and kind.

Adorable house, great location!
We stayed two nights at River Run and were so comfortable in this cozy house. We had everything we needed! The little electric fireplace in the loving room added ambiance and kept us warm when the temps dropped at night. The bedding was so soft and great quality! I’m a stickler for cotton sheets and these were awesome. I didn’t want to get up in the morning :) Communication with the homeowner was excellent. We will definitely be back in the future!
