Perfect stay for the weekend

Perfect for our family of five while my daughter was competing at the Extraco Event Center. Plenty of room for everyone to have their own space and minutes away from anywhere within Waco. Very clean, comfy beds and supplied with everything we needed.

Everything we hoped for

The house was very clean and welcoming. It was fun to stay in a home that Chip and Joanna Gaines remodeled but that the family has maintained so nicely over the years. It had everything we needed for a great stay in Waco and would definitely stay again!

The Plain Jane is Perfect!

We traveled to Waco with my parents for their 80th birthdays. Since my Dad has mobility issues, I needed to find a home with zero entry and no stairs. This gem of a house was perfect! It's cozy yet allows for privacy and has a spacious kitchen. Beautiful decorative touches from Chip and Joanna! The Property managers were attentive and genuinely so nice! I highly recommend staying here...it's about a 10 minute drive to the Silos and other attractions in Waco. We just loved our stay!

Perfect Girl’s Trip!

The Plain Jane is beautiful, cozy and spotless. We had fun watching the episode while we stayed in the house. An unexpected perk was a nice keurig coffee machine with plenty of coffee for our stay! The neighborhood was quiet. Easy to navigate by car to the silos and downtown area. Would definitely stay here again!!

Waco New years visit

We were visiting family in Waco for new years a few blocks from this property. We decided to stay here since it fit out family better than a hotel. The check in process was easy and the bed wee super comfortable which can be hard to find in a VRBO.

Amazing Home

We really enjoyed our stay. The interior of the house is immaculate just like the photos. They thought of many small details to make you feel at home. Good quality linens, towels, etc. Master bed was comfy. They also have a bot that sends you two emails a day to make sure your stay is going well. Two concerns: 1. The washer and dryer are old. The dryer left burn marks on our clothes even when using the delicate cycle which was super disappointing. 2. The playground outside is tucked away from any windows so you need to be outside if your kids are playing. The playset is also olold and rickety.

Mother daughter trip

Just as it looks on the episode of fixer upper. Comfy cozy and clean. Kitchen well stocked bedrooms were spacious with full closets. No dressers for folded clothes. Only on bedroom with a king bed was comfortable. Queen and twin beds were average. Appreciated the gated driveway and secure lock on back door. Would like one on front door. Overall we loved it. Very homey.
