Great stay … after a long day of shopping and site seeing the pool was a perfect place to unwind. The host was easy to get ahold of to answer our questions.

Enjoyed spending the week with my grown kids and my partners, visiting my oldest that lives in the area. This was a great location to be able to explore Waco and the surrounding towns. Nice proximity to the walking path at the airport. Not quite warm enough for us to swim but we loved soaking in the spa.

Very clean, had almost everything we needed. Beds were comfortable, hot tub was nice. Great neighborhood. Everything was labeled which was so nice. It was a bit of a jaunt to BU. We had difficulty getting into the property as the door code was wrong or wasn’t working. The code for the lock box wasn’t correct. The neighbor was outside and she knew the new code to get into the lock box so we had a key to open the door. It would be helpful to have a book with all instructions for turning heat on in hot tub, how to manage the thermostat, alarm system, TV and password for WiFi as the one we were given was not correct. The host was very responsive. Overall. I would recommend. Just verify the fixed the key pad to enter the house.
