Honey Farms is a peaceful retreat
This was my first VRBO stay and the crew that manage the property were exemplary in communication and providing a well-appointed home away from home. Thank you! Our oldest daughter is studying nursing and needed a quiet place with solid internet to dig in to her materials over her break. Our second daughter joined us to work-from-home and spend downtime with us. It’s been a long time since we had a mother/ daughters’ trip and there were laughs galore. We enjoyed the hot tub on one of the evenings, and though the weather was quite windy, the home had space to spread out and indoor activities to do if we had chosen to. In a little downtime, we visited the Magnolia complex and two of us checked out a massive antique mall. Checkout was easy and we would consider revisiting and making use of a few more amenities next time.

Perfect!
Our stay at Honey Farms was absolutely perfect! Every detail, from the clear communication to the beautiful, spotless accommodations and well-thought-out amenities, made for a wonderful experience. Honey Farms has anticipated every convenience a guest could need. I wouldn’t change a thing! The tranquil atmosphere, especially while unwinding by the pool, was incredibly relaxing, and the close proximity to Waco and amazing dining options was the perfect bonus.

Soccer girls weekend
Beautiful home and pool. Very comfortable, it had everything we needed for our annual friends of almost 40 years trip. Lots of things to do in nearby Waco. We especially enjoyed sitting on the patio in the morning drinking coffee and watching the sun come up.

Family visit
This maybe one of the best VRBO homes our family has stayed in. It’s really a peaceful experience with plenty of activities for the family. My wife and I enjoyed the sunrise in the water. I’d highly recommend this home if visiting Waco.

Family/Eclipse Gathering at Honey Farms
We chose Honey Farms to celebrate the April 2024 total eclipse and gather some of our family around us.
Honey Farms is amazing!
With two master suites and two second bedrooms, the home is plenty big enough for big families. The house is filled with light and love. Thoughtful finishing touches abound, and with plenty of room around it, the home is quiet at night, and the skies are filled with stars. The pond yielded fish for all of us who gave it a try, and the pool and hot tub were perfect for refreshing during the warm afternoons. There was perfect Texas BBQ perfection within a 15 minute drive, and everything else we needed for care for one another was also close by.
AND, we saw the total solar eclipse perfectly!
We loved this spot and would recommend it highly to anyone looking to stay in the Waco, Honey Springs, and Fort Worth areas.
We will be returning.
Our deep thanks to the entire team of wonderful people at Honey Farms.

Quiet getaway
We had a great time at Honey Farms. The location is private and close enough to Waco to enjoy all the city has to offer, while offering quiet, space, and beautiful views at the same time. The spa was great while stargazing at night, and even though the pond was low on water we were still able to fish and enjoy it. Very easy and prompt communication with owners.

Relaxing Weekend
If you want to be right outside of town and relax this is your place. It was fun to spend an evening in town, but great to have a day and evening to hang by the pool and hot tub. The house was beautiful and we loved all the bedrooms and bathrooms. Highly recommend!
