We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The home is beautiful and the owners had great communication. Easy no contact check-in & the secure parking was a big bonus. Would recommend and stay here again.

We stayed in this beautiful home to celebrate my 50th birthday, and I'm glad we chose this home. It's so close to the Downtown area and centrally located to everything there is to do in Waco. We will definitely stay here again on our return trip to Waco as there is so much to do in Waco than one weekend can handle.

We needed a place for additional family member to stay during the holiday. This home was so nice and had a great location. The beds were very comfortable and everything was conveniently located upstairs with the bedrooms, so coffee was only steps away in the mornings!

Appreciate the hospitality!

The many positive reviews for this property are accurate. It is a really cool restored old house/law office in an excellent location. Sure there are noises like creaky stairs, nearby trains, city life, etc. but they support what you would expect in a small-town atmosphere.
I really like knowing that the bedding, including comforters, are professionally cleaned between guest visits.

Neat historic house
The owners were fantastic at responding to any correspondence. The property was unique and characteristic. I feel comfort knowing that all the bedding, including pillows, are sent to be professionally cleaned after each guest. Great experience overall.

What beautiful home. 110 years young and restored amazingly. It was such a wonderful place to stay even my 2 granddaughters, 2 and 5, who were with us were in awe. The description was spot on. The toiletries and other amenities that were provided were abundant and more than enough. The Hosts were accessible if there were any problems and responded immediately. Very nice people and a pleasure to talk with. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and would go back in a heartbeat. And yes, it is walking distance to the Magnolia Silos!!

Quick trip to Magnolia
Had a great long weekend in Waco. We went with my parents. It’s good to note that the bedrooms and kitchen are upstairs and with older people or toddlers the stairs could be an issue. The house is absolutely beautiful, everything you need is there. It’s close to Magnolia and great restaurants and easy to get in and out of. Would definitely recommend!

Don't just stay in a home - stay in home from yesteryear!
The Inn on Austin Ave offers the perfect home away from home. Everything's included that you would expect but then there are the items you weren't expecting - the s'mores kit for the fire pit was an unexpected bonus! Outdoor dining space was perfect for eating or late night drinks and the parlor was a great place to sit and enjoy family time. You can rent a home for any getaway - but you don't often get to rent a 100 year old home that has amazing details in it.
We definitely enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend it.

My sister and I booked this awesome inn for our week-long getaway with our 3 girls. There were enough common areas for us to either hang out together or get away from each other and read or work on homework (me!). The beds (and bedding) were so comfy and there were lots of towels and amenities for us all, plenty of outlets for all of our electronics, and everything in the kitchen that we could want. The washer/dryer was so appreciated and we traveled home with clean clothes! We didn't use the fire pit as it was very warm, but we LOVED the outdoor dining area on top of the carport and used it every day for a morning cup of coffee, dinner together after a long day, or a late-night drink before we turned in. It can be so difficult to book a property in a safe-feeling neighborhood and central to all the spots you want to visit when you live states away. We read lots of reviews on many different properties and we hit the mark with this one. We loved being able to park off the street, we always felt safe coming and going and this location was so easy for us to get to no matter where we spent our day.
Best of all our hosts, Erin & John, were a dream to work with. They prepared us to arrive at their home, quickly answered all of our questions, and left detailed instructions for check-out. The virtual electronic guide to the area's restaurants, shopping, and other fun spots was a huge help to this out-of-town family and was a really fun feature.
We highly recommend this property for your next trip to Waco! :)

Loved the historic feel with modern comfort! Hard to find better parking at any other VRBO in Waco. We have used several. Centrally located. It was nice having a separate living area downstairs for those of us who wanted to relax and read. It was worth carrying luggage upstairs. Definitely would come Again!

We had the pleasure of staying at the Inn for a long weekend. The house was immaculately clean along with all límenes and towels sanitized! It was so beautiful and the porch and upstairs patio are an added bonus for rest and relaxation . Also the downstairs entry with the fireplace for reading was perfect . Definitely will return but next time with our sons and / or extended family ! Great location and a interactive information board in the family room helped us to locate great restaurants and activities in Waco. Erin is an excellent host and always responded quickly when I had a question .

Time to Relax
My daughters and I enjoyed the stay at the property. We just wanted to get away for a few days, so we had a quiet, restful time. Enjoyed breakfast on the upstairs patio. We sat on the front porch in the evening and read the Magnolia Journal magazines. We went to the Silos one day and enjoyed that as well.

We loved the Inn at Austin. It was great to have the whole property and the grandkids loved the big parking area in the back for riding bikes and scooters. They also used the basketball goal every day! Erin was great to work with and very responsive to any questions we had. The Inn is in a GREAT location. It was so easy to get around. We were within a few steps or miles of everything we wanted to do. Everything you could need is available in the house and kitchen. We just had a great time and enjoyed getting out after a year of not doing much. We enjoyed the neighborhood with sidewalks, sitting out on the big front porch and also the upstairs patio for dinners in the evening. We thank Erin again for everything from making the reservation a simple task, to getting the access info to us, to answering our questions.

We had a great time at this beautiful home. We loved sitting out on the front porch and on the upstairs balcony. We were in Waco celebrating our granddaughter‘s birthday, and the home was convenient to get to the Silos, Spice Village and all the great shopping. My husband has back pain issues and the bed we slept on in the master was so comfortable. In fact, he wants to buy one like it!
