Perfect for us!

We had a great time visiting Waco. The house was very comfortable and clean and the host communicated all of our needs. It was a short drive to Baylor University. We would absolutely stay here again!

We booked this for a weekend getaway to go antiquing. At first we were a little worried about the look of the neighborhood, but didn’t have a bit of trouble. It is a quiet area and perfectly safe. The play area isn’t exactly as advertised, and would be better for pets rather than children. Shower had plenty of hot water, and the kitchen had everything we could possibly need. If you don’t mind steep stairs, this is a perfect place. We met the owners as we were leaving Sunday morning, and they were very friendly.

Everything but the stairs was toddler friendly which we knew ahead of time. It was great to have a crib already set up. It didn’t feel like the most secure neighborhood & as other reviews mentioned there was in fact extremely loud music being played next door (obviously not the hosts fault). I would plan to bring a sound machine or play white noise on your phone.

We found this place on the busiest weekend of the year for Waco. The place is a little small but the hosts made everything as comfortable as they could. Cute little place and a reasonable price.

Comfy apartment

This apartment is very comfortable and well kept. We had everything we needed including a yard for my grandson to play in. There was also a grill and fire pit in the backyard for our use. I would stay here again. The location isn’t within walking distance to the silo area, which I would have preferred. Otherwise, everything was perfelt!

Fun Experience seeing Fixer Upper, S1 Ep 2

First, we went on the Waco tour, and this house is a stop on the tour. So it was fun hearing about the house before we stayed inside. And then, once inside, we watched Fixer Upper, S1 Ep 2 and that made the house come to life! It's definitely worth staying here, especially if you're a fan of the show. See the shiplap up close! Charmaine was quick to respond to my questions regarding check in and check out.

We enjoyed all!!! The only thing i would suggest is in the full bath upstairs correct the peeling ceiling and a heavier shower curtain as with magnets you have to fight with it -- the shower head is Great!

Inexpensive g

This property is a 2 story garage apartment. Parking was a bit tricky because there are narrow, walled entrances and exits to get into and out of the driveway. A large truck may not be able to do so. The neighborhood surrounding the house is a bit rough. There was loud music across the street and cars revving up their engines. The evening we arrived, there were other guests staying in the main house and it was difficult to park and open all 4 doors of my car because we had to park in between the two cars. Upon entering the house, we encountered an issue and contacted the owner-who responded immediately. The following day she had someone come check on the issue. However, the issue persisted and that really put a damper on our stay. The full bath has a cosmetic issue in that paint is peeling from the ceiling in large pieces. The shower feels like a power washer and it's definitely in need of a new shower curtain. The stairwell could use more lightening because it's very dark. Other than that, the two bedrooms were sufficient and we slept well. Communication with the owner was excellent! Also, it's easy to get to other places around Waco from the apartment.,

Quaint. Really cute!

Area spotty but honestly, not a soul bothered us. And in Waco, all the area is spotty. Main house is pretty on outside. Don’t know about inside. Garage house is nice outside and Inside. Inside has pretty steep stairs - just in case you don’t do stairs. But they didn’t really bother us. Kitchen small and usable downstairs, plus a powder room. You have to step up to get out of the kitchen so watch that step. I put a nightlight out so I could see it at night. I kept forgetting. Upstairs has loft living area. Small but very doable. 2 bedrooms with nice beds, but firm. Slept fine. Bathroom connects to one of the bedrooms. All-in-all we had a nice stay. It’s really best for 2 people as seating is limited. But I went with a friend and we had a pretty good trip. Would I recommend? Yes. It’s “old” but not outdated or “gross.” No bugs. Clean linens. Clean everything. And the owner is very friendly.

Probably because of the misleading title on VRBO, I expected to see a touch of Gaines' magic. Sorry, only the big house was redone years ago. It is now, from the outside, in need of painting and maintenance. But back to the garage apt. Our welcome was tempered by the difficulty of squeezing past parked cars on the gravel driveway in order to reach our entrance door. The driveway has such an angled access from 20th St. we were afraid of scraping the underside of our car. We ended up parking in front of a neighbor's house. The garage apt. is very small. A downstairs kitchen is fully equipped but narrow, with stool seating for 3 at a hightop. A steep stairway has a handrail on the lower section and a wobbly railing above, leading up to a common area (w/the unit's only tv), a bathroom, and two bedrooms. The beds are comfortable but very tall, and the smaller bedroom has scarcely enough room to maneuver between the bed and the wall. The location, not too far from downtown, is fine. The street is a little sketchy in parts, but the block we were in felt safe and quiet. Upon leaving, be aware that you are expected to: 1) carry all trash outside, separating recyclables; 2) strip the linens off the beds; 3) begin laundry of towels in an unlit garage annex where detergent is not readily apparent; 4) tidy the kitchen/bathroom/closets so you are not charged an additional fee for owner-determined incidentals like stolen hangers. Next time? A hotel.
