About this property

Lazy River Cottage on the Middle Bosque River - kayaks and boats available.

Come relax and enjoy Texas resort-style living by the Middle Bosque River. Cruise down the river on a kayak, watch the wild life, breathe the fresh air, and see the stars at night.

We are a 25 minute drive to Waco, Magnolia Market and Baylor University.

We are located down a private country drive with controlled access to the property. Our secluded home is situated on 48 acres with 360 ft of river access - right in the backyard!

Fishing, kayaking, swimming, floating the river, observing wildlife & camp fires are the norm here. With river access 192 feet away from the front door! (Yes, we measured 😎). So come play, enjoy the view and clock in some personal relaxation time at the Lazy River Cottage!

————————————————————-

Our family lives in the main house which is close by the cottage (about 6 feet from the main house). The cottage is a separate building by the main house with a private entrance.

We do share a backyard, and we will try our best to minimize interactions while you enjoy your stay. However, it’s not uncommon to hear laughing, playing or frustrated kids trying to get their way.

Our policy is to let guests take the lead on how interactive they want to be with us. We do practice social distancing.

We are friendly, but it’s your vacation and we respect your privacy.

Property has potential but disappointed with our stay

This property has a lot of potential , but the listing was inaccurate unfortunately. It said the property had a pool and we were counting on a pool as part of our travel plans. It was extremely hot outside and the river was not flowing. We understood the water would be low but to find a stagnant pool of water that was unswimmable was very disappointing. In addition, there was no working TV in the space. We ended up leaving the property for the majority of our stay, which was not our plan since it is far from town. I informed the property owners of our complaints and they offered 15% off our next stay, but I'm not feeling positively about that response. It has been a month and the listing has not been updated to remove the pool. For this reason, I felt I needed to write a review so someone else wouldn't be set up for disappointment. I'm sure this is a lovely place when there is a flowing river, but I wouldn't trust the accuracy of the listing information. In addition, the fold out couch is not a suitable second bed and the doors were not lockable. We didn't feel any threat of theft or anything, but as two women staying alone, we would've liked to lock our door at night.
