Perfect property for our stay. We only needed one night in Waco for a school function, but we could have stayed much long in this home. The little house had plenty of room for me, my wife, my father, and my 15 yo son. The master suite addition was very nice. The entire house has been well updated and is stocked well for anything you might have forgotten. If we have the same opportunity next year, we will stay here again.

Mother in law trip

We arrived to the house and the process getting in was easy - very clean, neat and an easy location- close to everything we were doing that weekend. My daughter in law thought the sheets were so soft, we had to peel at the tag to see where they were from.. recommend to anyone! Thank you for our stay.

Fabulous house for family to gather

We loved our stay. The host was very responsive when I wanted to lengthen our stay. She went above and beyond when I told her we just wanted a place that the entire family (2 rentals) could gather to visit and celebrate graduation, offering to have instapots or whatever we needed available if she had it. . The back yard kept our youngest renter happy and the living area was great for our group to gather for gifts and such. She even had extra chairs brought so we could all fit around the table. Great location, great host!

Family trip!

My sister in laws, mom and myself have made a girls trip to Waco a couple of times! This house is perfect, cute neighborhood, easy drive to everything we wanted to do! The big bathrooms made getting ready in the mornings a breeze! It was a cold weekend so we did not get to enjoy the big backyard but we plan to be back and we can’t wait!! Communication with the host was the best I’ve ever had. So thankful for this trip and VRBO experience!

Great Stay

We enjoyed our two night stay with family. The house is very cute and accommodated everyone. The location was perfect, as it’s close to everything we went to. The castle is just down the road, as well. My only complaint was it sounded like cars racing down the street late at night. It was very loud. However, we would stay again!

Super cute house

This house was so cute and clean, conveniently located in an area not far from Baylor at all. Very comfortable beds. My in-laws did say that the battery for the fan remote in the master didn’t work, so they didn’t get to sleep with a fan, which they didn’t love. Other than that, perfect place to stay.

Hidden Treasure

My sister/friends and I spent a wonderful evening at this space. The house was equipped with all the necessities of life. It was quaint, clean and quiet. It’s also near restaurants and Silos, which you must visit. Booking was quick as was checking in and out. The host was easily accessible and personable. If you’re ever in Waco, this is the place to stay!😊
