Great get-away spot!

We took a short trip for spring break and enjoyed our stay here. The house met all of our needs and was so cute! The owner was so easy to communicate with too. I highly recommend staying here! It was a great location and less than 15 minutes away from everything that we did.

Property needed work on bathroom floor in Master bedroom. House needed cleaning. Someone cut corners. Floors were dirty and sticky. Dirty dishes put away in cabinets. Rewashed dishes we used.

Sister trip to Waco

We had four of us staying in Waco for the first time. This little VRBO was a charmer. Clean, quaint and we never ran out of hot water showering, that’s a plus! Over all a great stay. Close to the attractions and easy to get to downtown Waco.
