Lovely home with great details from the past
My family stayed here for graduation and really enjoyed it! LaKee was a great hostess and shared some fascinating history with us. They loved the details that had been preserved from the houses origin, built in corner hutches and such details were beautiful. My sister had lovely memories flood back of sleeping at our Grandma’s house with the ac unit humming her to sleep. The big connect 4 kept our younger guest entertained while everyone got ready in the morning. Really great stay and close to Baylor and the park.

Quiet Neighborhood, Family Space
Unique older home in Central Waco, close to everything we wanted to see. Nice cold AC welcomed us. We remembered American war hero, Doris Miller and celebrated Juneteenth parade. Kids loved the toys and games.
