Children are allowed, but I do not have the home set of for safety in regards to infants ages 0-2.

Sisters reunion

Our stay was for 5 sisters ages 69-82 and 2 spouses. We come from New York State, Minnesota and Texas. So Waco was a good spot to meet. And there was the attraction of the Magnolia Market/Silos. The "cottage" fit us well. The living room had comfortable seating for everyone. Perfect as much of our time was spent talking and visiting. Plenty of bathrooms.....comfortable beds and central air conditioning! This was important as temperatures outside were unusually high for the time of year. Overall, the house deserves a high rating.

Pleasant Enough I Guess

We had a fairly pleasant stay . 2 things were wrong about the listing. 1. A comment said the neighborhood wasnt good. It was fine 2. The listing said Magnolia Silos was 2 Streets took over 20min by car to The house was in great shape very comfortable except the beds. One family member had to sleep on the coach because the bed was so hard. Some bedroom doors would not latch.

Perfect house!

I can’t say enough positive things about our stay!!! The house was so charming (exactly like the pictures!) & had everything we needed. Check-in was seamless, beds were comfortable, A/C worked great, washer & dryer are very new. All things that seem minor, but can tend to be the luck of the draw with short term rentals. The absolute best part is that check-out was SO EASY. We were basically instructed to not worry about anything, they would take care of it. After traveling cross-country to celebrate our son’s graduation from Baylor we were tuckered out & that was a very nice surprise. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone coming to Waco.

Great house for 8!

We loved staying at this house in Waco! The house was charming, clean, and located in a great spot. There are only beds for 8 and it said it sleeps 10. We had to look around for other bedding and did find an air mattress. But loved the house and would definitely stay again.

Girls Trip

House was a good place to stay for our girls trip as there is plenty of seating in living & kitchen / dining room! Beds were comfy. Downsides were trash cans were full & stinky, dishwasher was broken & yard needed mowed & attention in back for mosquitos. Time outside was spent on front porch which have 2 nice rockers, a couple would have be nice. Neighborhood is not the best with some booming music when cars drove by but it didn’t really bother us much. Owner was responsive when notified of full trash & dishwasher but of course could only apologize. Overall, great proximity to various shopping / restaurants and home was comfortable.
