Fun girls trip for sorority bid day at Baylor

Perfect spot to join my older daughter and sister-in-law to be there for my middle daughter’s sorority bid day. Also brought our little dog who loved the spacious backyard and walks to dog friendly Pinewood for morning coffee. He also really enjoyed watching the world go by through the beautiful glass front door. I love historic homes and this one is a beauty! We also really enjoyed the gas fireplace on the cold weekend.

Beautiful Home

We stayed in this beautiful home to celebrate my 50th birthday, and I'm glad we chose this home. It's so close to the Downtown area and centrally located to everything there is to do in Waco. We will definitely stay here again on our return trip to Waco as there is so much to do in Waco than one weekend can handle.

Positive reviews are correct!

The many positive reviews for this property are accurate. It is a really cool restored old house/law office in an excellent location. Sure there are noises like creaky stairs, nearby trains, city life, etc. but they support what you would expect in a small-town atmosphere. I really like knowing that the bedding, including comforters, are professionally cleaned between guest visits.

The Inn at Austin Ave

What beautiful home. 110 years young and restored amazingly. It was such a wonderful place to stay even my 2 granddaughters, 2 and 5, who were with us were in awe. The description was spot on. The toiletries and other amenities that were provided were abundant and more than enough. The Hosts were accessible if there were any problems and responded immediately. Very nice people and a pleasure to talk with. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and would go back in a heartbeat. And yes, it is walking distance to the Magnolia Silos!!

Quick trip to Magnolia

Had a great long weekend in Waco. We went with my parents. It’s good to note that the bedrooms and kitchen are upstairs and with older people or toddlers the stairs could be an issue. The house is absolutely beautiful, everything you need is there. It’s close to Magnolia and great restaurants and easy to get in and out of. Would definitely recommend!

Don't just stay in a home - stay in home from yesteryear!

The Inn on Austin Ave offers the perfect home away from home. Everything's included that you would expect but then there are the items you weren't expecting - the s'mores kit for the fire pit was an unexpected bonus! Outdoor dining space was perfect for eating or late night drinks and the parlor was a great place to sit and enjoy family time. You can rent a home for any getaway - but you don't often get to rent a 100 year old home that has amazing details in it. We definitely enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend it.

Amazing Girls Trip Location!!!

My sister and I booked this awesome inn for our week-long getaway with our 3 girls. There were enough common areas for us to either hang out together or get away from each other and read or work on homework (me!). The beds (and bedding) were so comfy and there were lots of towels and amenities for us all, plenty of outlets for all of our electronics, and everything in the kitchen that we could want. The washer/dryer was so appreciated and we traveled home with clean clothes! We didn't use the fire pit as it was very warm, but we LOVED the outdoor dining area on top of the carport and used it every day for a morning cup of coffee, dinner together after a long day, or a late-night drink before we turned in. It can be so difficult to book a property in a safe-feeling neighborhood and central to all the spots you want to visit when you live states away. We read lots of reviews on many different properties and we hit the mark with this one. We loved being able to park off the street, we always felt safe coming and going and this location was so easy for us to get to no matter where we spent our day. Best of all our hosts, Erin & John, were a dream to work with. They prepared us to arrive at their home, quickly answered all of our questions, and left detailed instructions for check-out. The virtual electronic guide to the area's restaurants, shopping, and other fun spots was a huge help to this out-of-town family and was a really fun feature. We highly recommend this property for your next trip to Waco! :)

Loved the historic feel with modern comfort! Hard to find better parking at any other VRBO in Waco. We have used several. Centrally located. It was nice having a separate living area downstairs for those of us who wanted to relax and read. It was worth carrying luggage upstairs. Definitely would come Again!

We had the pleasure of staying at the Inn for a long weekend. The house was immaculately clean along with all límenes and towels sanitized! It was so beautiful and the porch and upstairs patio are an added bonus for rest and relaxation . Also the downstairs entry with the fireplace for reading was perfect . Definitely will return but next time with our sons and / or extended family ! Great location and a interactive information board in the family room helped us to locate great restaurants and activities in Waco. Erin is an excellent host and always responded quickly when I had a question .

Time to Relax

My daughters and I enjoyed the stay at the property. We just wanted to get away for a few days, so we had a quiet, restful time. Enjoyed breakfast on the upstairs patio. We sat on the front porch in the evening and read the Magnolia Journal magazines. We went to the Silos one day and enjoyed that as well.
