State Tennis Tournament

Very clean property adjacent to Lake Waco

We were very impressed with this spotlessly clean property next to Lake Waco. Another thing we loved was the secure parking inside the gate at the backside of the home and the beautiful shaded yard with the deck.

Wonderful property in Waco

This property was perfect for our needs. We were in Waco for the Half Ironman Triathlon. We had two couples staying here. Great location. Roughly 2 blocks from entrance to the walking/biking trail over the dam at Lake Waco. We will use this property again.

State Tennis tournament

Needed a place to stay for a tournament. Less than 5 mins from the tournament location, easy access to groceries, clean accommodations and able to bring our pups! Nice to cook at the house and save time/money on eating out.

Amazing Time!

We came for a girls trip to hang out by the lake and do the winery about 20 min away! This house was perfect because it was in great location to downtown as well. We loved the patio and enjoyed it so much. House in general is very clean and perfectly accommodated our group! Will for sure be looking for this place again if Waco calls us back :)

Clean home with a great yard.

Everything was as advertised. The house was clean and all amenities were present. During the stay we had a few questions and they were answered quickly. We enjoyed the total eclipse and then had a barbeque out back. Lots of fun and would stay again. Quiet neighborhood-plenty of parking and across the street is Lake Waco with a wonderful walking trail.

Loved this home

We absolutely loved this home and the cute street it is on. We moved our daughter into Baylor for her freshman year and this home made the transition easier with being able to relax and visit with comfort and get all of her supplies together. The air conditioning worked amazingly, the beds were all very comfortable and the home was clean. Very impressed.

Baylor Family Weekend Visit

Perfect stay for a family of 5 with a dog & cat! House was exactly as pictured and extremely clean, you would never know pets are allowed in the house. Beds were comfortable which included a comfy roll-a-way bed as well. Although we did not utilize, the kitchen was nice and seemed well stocked. Big yard, perfect for dog to run around in. Something that came in helpful was the basket of medicines/first aid that I found by accident in the bathroom cabinets but low & behold we had a unexpected need for antibacterial ointment and it was in the basket! Easy, 15'ish minute drive to Baylor University area.

In town for a wedding

Very clean and well-supplied house. Pretty with plenty of natural light. Lots of attention to detail. There were snacks offered and plenty of staples for cooking and coffee-making. Large mirrors in master bed and bath were appreciated as we got ready for our event. There were multiple appliances available, including an iron and even a steamer. Plenty of closet space and hangers. Great location and quiet neighborhood.
