What a wonderful home for our week-long visit to Waco! The property was clean and comfortable for all 7 of us. We especially enjoyed the huge backyard! Melissa was readily available to answer any questions and even went out of her way to quickly replace a broken TV. We highly recommend this property!

Beautiful, spacious home and property.

I booked this property for my mother’s 85th birthday celebration. The home is located in a quiet community with friendly neighbors. The home was spacious enough for the attendees and didn’t feel cramped at all. Great outdoor area too with a huge backyard. There was ample firewood provided for the fireplace and the fire pit was ready to go. Upon leaving my mother said “We may see you again”! Great time had by all!

Great size house

The house was lovely and the backyard was huge. Our dogs were so happy but I didn’t realize the backyard was not fenced so that caused a little problem. While the master was lovely, there was no place to hang out clothes because the master closet was locked. The house was just far enough away from the traffic so that you could relax but only a 13 min drive to the Silos.

I will make a note that the back yard is not fenced. Sorry if I did not mention. I will make sure and hang tv on wall in master so that the armour can be used for clothes. Thanks for the review.

Darling farmhouse in Waco

We loved our stay in Waco at this comfortable, darling farmhouse. It was my husband and I, our 5 adult children and our 2 year old granddaughter. We were in town for Baylor University Graduation. It was perfect. The house is about a 15 minute drive to the University, downtown Waco, etc. it is so comfortable, and has everything you need. The grounds are massive and it was perfect for the grandparents to come back for lunch after graduation. The host is lovely and so easy going…we will definitely be back!! You will not be disappointed if you rent this cute VRBO!
