You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Beautifully Renovated Home near Downtown Waco, Baylor Univ. & Magnolia Silos

Surrounded by majestic oak trees, the beautifully renovated Brickyard House offers you comfort, modern convenience and tasteful style. This top-rated Texas home provides the best of both worlds: relaxation in the peaceful countryside and easy access to Waco, Baylor, Magnolia Silos and the small Czech town of West. This historic and authentic 4-generation farm is officially recognized by the State of Texas as an historic 100-Year Family Land Heritage Farm. Book this gem of a property while your dates are still available.

The property includes a full one-acre yard with countless colorful birds coming and going throughout each day. You will have the entire home all to yourself. And once you arrive, you will quickly understand why our guests keep coming back. The Brickyard House is a peaceful retreat. And if you have any questions at all, before or after booking your visit, simply reach out to Clyde. He is genuinely happy to help. Whether you're coming with family, with friends or on your own, a wonderful getaway awaits you. This property is not a typical short-term rental. It truly is a home away from home, a place for you to recharge and rejuvenate at the end of each day, whether you are visiting Waco, West, or just staying on the farm.

Whether you are booking a longer stay or a quick getaway, we think you will greatly appreciate the carefully thought out amenities that this home offers. The Brickyard House has a full kitchen: stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, large sink, full size refrigerator with freezer, basic spices, coffee pot plus coffee and filters, a variety of hot tea options, pots, pans, dishes, drinking glasses, toaster, and blender.

The Brickyard House also has laundry in house if you are booking a longer stay. There is a stackable washer and dryer unit, as well as laundry detergent and dryer sheets, available for your use.

Outside, there is a patio with a gas grill and a picnic table. There are also four outdoor chairs and a fire pit available for your use.

And although The Brickyard House is a great place to unplug and unwind, you can also enjoy our free Wi-Fi network to stream your favorite shows on a 55" HD TV or to login and get some work done. When you're ready to venture out, you can grab kolaches in the historic Czech town of West (less than 5 minutes away) or experience the recently revitalized downtown district of Waco (only 15 minutes away). After an event at Baylor or after exploring the Magnolia Silos, escape the crowds and return to your country retreat. However you choose to spend your time, the memories you make here will last a lifetime.

Listen to the songs of cardinals and bluebirds, and if you're lucky, you might even see a roadrunner or two, or possibly even hear an occasional barn owl as the sun goes down! Enjoy a glass of wine with a beautiful Texas sunset, followed by some of the best star gazing in the state! Or enjoy a morning cup of coffee while watching baby calves run and jump in the surrounding fields. It's now your turn to exhale, relax and enjoy your stay here at The Brickyard House.

And finally, we encourage you to read a few reviews of this property to see what our guests have to say. We think they speak for themselves and will help you book with confidence before your dates disappear.

Also worth noting:
With 2 bedrooms (1 king and 1 queen) and 1 bathroom, the house is perfect for 2-4 guests. However, there is also a sofa sleeper in the living room so the house can actually sleep up to 5, if needed.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a sofa bed.

Another great stay at the Brickyard house! We've chosen to stay here multiple times because of the seamless communication and ease of the overall rental process. The house is quaint and has everything we've needed. We bring our clothes, our own pillows and groceries - that's about it! It only takes 15 -20 minutes to get anywhere in Waco and we enjoy staying in a rural area instead of in town.

Beautiful house and property with everything just as described. Within an hour of arriving we heard an owl nearby and could see cardinals and blue jays in the yard. We enjoyed seeing the cows through the windows every morning and tossing them some of the provided treats over the fence. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets, and even a foggy morning provided good photo opportunities. Appreciated the coffee and tea provided in the kitchen. Quiet and peaceful weekend stay for our small family.

Excellent location. We are from the Philadelphia area visiting our daughter and her husband in Houston. This short trip gave us the opportunity to see Dallas, Waco and many small towns in between. Home was spotless and well equipped. Host provided all information required and was available should we have had any questions or issues...which we did not. I could go on and on but will leave my discussion with the recommendation that if you are looking for a get away weekend from close by major city or on a road trip this would be an ideal place to stay.  A taste of the country with access to anything you could need.

Loved the stay!!The home was clean, well situated to visit The Silos and go to a Baylor game. The best thing about the house was while it was close enough to Waco, it was far enough away from the traffic and congestion in the north part of town.. In addition, Clyde was the perfect host, making sure we had no problems getting into the house and checking with us to see if we had any questions or problems. If we were to visit Waco again, I would definitely stay again!!

Pride in ownership is clearly evident. The house was so comfortable with everything we could have needed. The trees surrounding the home are so beautiful. Waking to see the cows hanging out in the fields surrounding the home was so peaceful, yet so close to everything we were in town to do. Highly recommend!!

10 out of 10!!!! This little farmhouse is EXACTLY what we needed in the Waco area! The house cozy and comfortable, a far cry from generic hotel room in Waco. The gas fireplace was a comfort we indulged in while the whole family sat and read books around it. We now have a whole herd of cow friends, who visited every morning, and (with the help of some cow pellets graciously left from the owner), our daughter made friends with all of them, including the newborn calf. When we come to Waco, usually 2-3 times a year, we will definitely stay here again!!!
