About this apartment rental
Green Door Lofts, also known as "Funky Town" as coined by Chip on Fixer Upper "Urban Loft Challenge", is a 9 unit luxury loft complex in the heart of Waco's bustling Silo District. We are next door to the historic Hippodrome Dinner Theater and steps away from eclectic shops, antique stores, wine tasting rooms, and live music. Magnolia Market is an easy walk away, or take the free trolley that stops outside. Each loft is crafted with a unique flair and offers a distinct experience.
The Tuna Loft gets its name from a five foot tuna sculpture suspended from the high rafters in the living room. This artwork (debatable) catches your eye as you enter the loft. Large windows overlook downtown Waco's most popular avenue, a tree-lined street filled with people enjoying the sights and sounds of the city. Skylights bathe the living room in natural light, making it the perfect place to relax. The master bedroom boasts a king-sized bed with high quality, pressed, triple-sheeted linens. In the living room there is a trifold, queen-sized Murphy bed. The loft has an in-unit washer/dryer. Guests will also love the fully-equipped kitchen, complete with coffee and tea. Entertainment includes a large screen SmartTV with Direct TV/Netflix and Phillips Hue lighting to help set the mood for any occasion.
The building's courtyard has a seasonallyHEATED POOL with lounge chairs and tables. The mezzanine deck overlooks the avenue below - perfect for people watching!
A unique code for keyless entry makes check-in and check-out flexible and convenient. The owner lives on-site and can be reached by cell phone any time. We're happy to provide suggestions for local eateries and activities, in addition to the loft's information guide.
Green Door Lofts gets its name from the famous green door that welcomes residents into the courtyard. This 9 unit complex is located on a trendy street that links the historic old homes of Waco with the parks along the Brazos River. Next door is the iconic Waco Hippodrome, where you can grab dinner and an adult beverage while watching a play, concert, or show. Waco’s free trolley stops in front of the loft before continuing to the Silos and other downtown shops.
A few blocks away is Cameron Park, a 416-acre stretch of land with hike and bike trails and the Waco Zoo. We are also located within five minutes of Baylor's McLane Stadium. On game days, Baylor’s free shuttle that runs between downtown and the stadium is only a couple blocks away.
Downtown Waco has plenty of free street parking and Ubers are readily available. The loft is walking distance to shops and restaurants. We have our own secured garage in the building.
This loft overlooks an avenue in the heart of the city's shopping and entertainment district so noise may be heard inside the living room. The bedroom is interior and very quiet with the door closed. A white noise machine is available in the unit, if needed. The Tuna Loft is a bit larger than my other one bedroom lofts, the Retro and Urban Cowboy however I do find that if 3 or 4 adults are sharing the room you might find the Retro or Urban Cowboy better suited due to noise considerations in the living area, especially Thursday- Saturday. Even so this is not terrible and people have not mentioned this. I am just being particular!
If more space is needed, consider the Magnolia Loft, 2/2 sleeps 6, or Bo Ho Loft, 2/2 sleeps 4 with privacy. The first floor Stained Glass Loft 3/2, sleeps 8.
The Tuna Loft is on the second floor and accessed only by stairs. If this is an issue, please consider our 3 bedroom listing on the first floor.
- For our guests we request quiet hours from 10p-7a
Although children are welcome, please note the Green Door Lofts are not "child-proofed"

Perfect Location...Perfect Loft
Jim the property manager was amazing we booked with communication at each step. If you have a problem with a property manager that treats you like a family member, Jim is not for you...I like him better than most of my brothers:)
Loft was so nicely done. no complaints at all, and the location was in a great part of Waco...walking distance to everything we wanted to do.
Thanks Jim

The loft was exactly what we were looking for on our trip to Waco. It had a cool, hip vibe and the location could not be beat. There was garage parking which was an added bonus as we were moving our daughter out of her dorm and had many valuables in the van. The trip back and forth to Baylor was very easy and lots of restaurants were within walking distance. We would definitely stay here again.

The owner/host was phenomenal, he had a book with recommendations on dining, shopping and more. His mom made us a homemade treat waiting for us to enjoy. It was super clean with fun decor, in walking distance from many of the activities we went there to do. Has a heated pool, wonderful lounging area. Very secure, code only doors. I would definently stay there again and recommend it to anyone just wanting to stay and chill or see all the Magnolia stuff and all that Waco has to offer. Don't forget to go to the Dr. Pepper Museum and the Texas Ranger Museum, they were both worth seeing.

We chose Green Door apartments for a girl's weekend getaway and loved it! We stayed in the Tuna Loft and the pictures matched exactly what the loft looked like. It was beautiful. Jim is a great host. We were welcomed by a delicious coffee cake made by Jim's mom. It was delicous! A supply of coffee and filters were provided, along with dishwasher detergent and detergent for the washer. You did not need to run and purchase those necessities as you usually do in other rentals. We also enjoyed the pool and outdoor lofted patio overlooking the street. The location of the apartment is blocks from the Silos, restaurants, bars and shopping. We had a great night enjoying live music outdoors at the Backyard Stage, Bar & Grill. SO FUN!! All within walking distance.
Jim, thanks for the hospitality and we will definitely be back!

We were lucky to have found the Green Door Lofts during our stay in Waco. It was the center of all our explorations. We were able to walk to great foods and the Silos, bike to Cameron Park and have a short drive to visit Baylor for a college tour. Everything that we needed for a wonderful stay was available in the stunning lofts. We loved the comfortable beds, soft sheets and homemade coffee cake ! We will make this our go to place on our next visit.Thanks again Jim !
