About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
The Canopy · Treetop Cabin, Hot Tub + Soaking Tub
The Canopy is designed for two. If you're traveling with a small child and are willing to squeeze, a pack-n-play will technically fit - just let us know!
INSIDE A king-sized bed set beneath an oversized window to star gaze or watch the sunrise. An oversized indoor soaking tub. A record player with a rotating selection of albums (feel free to bring your own if you'd like)! A kitchenette with a coffee maker, microwave, dishes, and flatware. Plus an air purifier, white noise machine, a Roku TV, and HVAC for year-round comfort.
OUTSIDE A private outdoor shower (yes, it's liberating). A private hot tub set on the deck in line with the tree tops. And a Blackstone flattop grill (the propane's on us).
STOCKED FOR YOU Coffee from our favorite roaster here in Texas. Bath products and fresh towels.
AROUND VALLEY MILLS We love and recommend Valley Mills Vineyard for family-run Texas wine and weekend live music. Helberg Barbecue for the brisket smash burger (chef's kiss!). Olaf's for a lovely ranch-to-table dinner experience. Downtown Clifton for antiquing and good eats. And, of course, beloved Waco, just 30 minutes away, for Magnolia Silos and Baylor Bears.
P.S. This is our newest cabin, but the property has been welcoming guests for years. A kind note from a prior guest of the property...
"We loved how it felt like we were way out in the middle of nowhere, but we were actually close to town and not far from Waco. It was so peaceful and the place was beautiful and had everything we needed." - Guest from Waco, TX
We feel deeply honored to host every guest who stays at The Poppy House. Our hope is that you feel it in every detail of your stay.
A few things to note:
Valley Mills is a charming little town, located where central Texas meets the hill country. It's easy to slow down here - that's why we love it. When you want a bigger day out, Clifton and Waco are great spots to dine and shop.
The Train: Our local train passes through day and night and sounds its horn for about 10 seconds at a time. Most guests embrace it as part of the small-town charm, but the cabin is stocked with earplugs and a sound machine for your comfort.
The Property: Each unit is set to provide peaceful views and plenty of space, but we do have other units across our 11 acres that may be occupied during your stay. The land provides natural separation and privacy, but you may occasionally see or hear others.
Nature & Wildlife: You're staying in the heart of the Texas countryside, which is a big part of the magic here. On 11 wooded acres it's not unusual to meet deer, birds, and the occasional snake, spider, or fire ants. Enjoy them from a respectful distance, keep an eye on little ones, and watch your step after dark.
Security Cameras: Exterior cameras at the entrance and driveway. Outdoor-facing only. They never monitor the interior of any unit or private outdoor spaces like your hot tub or soaking tub.
No pets. Smoke-free property. Only registered guests on the property, message us for any exceptions.
