Sports Weekend in Waco

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.

Sister Trip

My two sisters and I enjoyed coming to Waco to check out the Magnolia Market and had a wonderful time at your charming house. Wouldn’t change a thing about the inside. However, we were slightly alarmed at how unkept the yard and landscape was when we first saw where we were staying. Our fears quickly changed when we were inside. The first impression could be worked on. Lovely, lovely accommodations though. Thank you.

Excellent Waco Stay

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!
