Located near a museum, this vacation home features 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, accommodating 8 guests. Enjoy activities like fishing, waterskiing, and kayaking nearby. The property includes a patio for outdoor relaxation and is close to golf facilities. Explore attractions such as the Fort House Museum and Dr. Pepper Museum.
Bright, light and airy with pops of poppy red and handcrafted pieces, it's the best of the old with the luxury of the new. Fully renovated in a down to the studs transformation, the interior was thoughtfully designed by Dana with original shiplap, bead board, and hardwoods that are beautifully blended with all new modern decor. Rye -- a Harp Design Co-trained craftsman -- has crafted one-of-a-kind pieces throughout the home.
We have 3 bedrooms with 3 FULL bathrooms (a rare find!). Two bedrooms have their own connected baths in en-suite style for ultimate privacy. We're located in the heart of downtown Waco, a short walk to the Silos, on the next block over. Relax with friends and family on not one, but two, of our large porches (front & back!), or enjoy the private fire pit area in the backyard.
5 Reasons You'll Love Poppy & Rye House
1. Take the short walk to Magnolia (next block over) 2. Settle in to our cozy Adirondack chairs around the fire pit in our backyard 3. Grab a morning cup of coffee at Magnolia Press (just around the corner) 4. Listen to live music at Backyard (free tix for our guests upon request) 5. We're LOCAL. No 3rd party managers for us. You'll have direct access to the owners!
(If this property is unavailable, be sure to check our other vrbo just down the street -- Poppy & Rye Cottage.)
Guest Access: You’ll have full access to the house, driveway and private fenced backyard (with gate). Check yourself in with Schlage Smartlock keypad and one-touch lock as you leave each time. (No keys to keep track of!)
Other things to note: The front bedroom has two (2) twin beds with slide out trundles for four (4) total beds if needed. (Handy for kids / extra guests.) We're within earshot of the Backyard venue which has live music from leading musicians / bands on Thurs, Fri and Saturday nights. You can sit around the firepit in our backyard and enjoy your own "private concert". A plus for most! BUT, if you're the turn-in-early type, we have ear plugs and noise machines on hand to block out the music completely. Check Backyard's concert calendar to see who's playing while you're in town. It’s just around the corner!
