About this house rental
This one acre retreat is nestled along the banks of the Brazos River and offers both a beautifully restored 1962 Airstream as well as a character filled cabin.
We strive to make sure your time at the property is relaxing and enjoyable and are always available during your stay if there are any questions or for any recommendations on what to do and see in the area.
The property is located right on the Brazos Riverfront just 10 minutes from the heart of Waco giving you the ideal base to see all the sights of the city while still being far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet this beautiful riverside location provides.
While on the property guests are welcome to fish in the river, explore the property and go for morning walks along the quiet roads.
If you are looking to get out and experience the city, guests can mountain bike or hike in Cameron Park, shop downtown or stroll through the cultural and historic district that extends from Austin Avenue through Elm Avenue and across the mighty Brazos River or take a walk across the historic Suspension Bridge.
Visit the popular Magnolia Market where you can find products used or inspired by Joanna Gaines (of HGTV fame). There are also dozens of home décor and antique shops along with a great Downtown Farmers Market on Saturday mornings.
Visit the Mammoth National Monument where you can see the remains of an actual woolly mammoth, then head to the Texas Ranger Hall of fame where you can walk along the river and admire the huge sculptures on display.
Stop in at the Cameron Park Zoo with over 1700 animals from around the world and for the golf lovers, Cottonwood Creek Golf Course is a must play course and is ranked as one of the top golf courses in Texas.
When it comes time to refuel, stop in for some delicious Texas food at Magnolia Table or Torchy’s tacos for some delicious Mexican food. Twisted Root make the best burgers while George’s offers highly rated Southern food and is definitely worth a visit.

The kitchen offers all the basics for cooking and heating up quick meals with a microwave, a mini fridge/freezer and a coveted coffee maker along with a BBQ grill outside for when you want to cook up a feast.
The living space features a large bench seat with a comfy swivel chair and a built in desk perfect for remote workers or students with free WiFi to keep you connected.
Then, after a day spent fishing or exploring the city, take a relaxing bath in the custom designed bathroom or if a stand up shower is more your thing, there is an outdoor shower by the cabin with a half bath “out house” attached.

Cook up lunch or dinner on the BBQ grill and eat alfresco style with two picnic tables to choose from, then when the sun goes down, light up the wood firepit and sit with friends as you roast marshmallows and share stories well into the night.
So if you are looking for a truly special place to come and relax, unwind and escape while still being close enough to the city to enjoy all of life’s luxuries – look no further than this little slice of Texas paradise nestled along the banks of the Brazos River for your next getaway.

Cozy cabin and airstream is right on track for this rental. Another title might be two for the price of one (at least for us). We got both units together as we (couple) were traveling with a friend. We did spend a couple nights in a hotel and separate quarters was better for sleep, privacy and restroom availability. The grounds were rustic with spacious front yard and retreat like backyard overlooking the river (pretty close) with a picnic tables, BBQ, and possibly hammock in summer. The location while outside the city was an easy 15–20-minute drive to the Magnolia Properties. Both cabin and airstream were well furnished, with the cabin having full cooking facilities and multiple tv’s, one living room/kitchen and one in the bed room. The airstream had a smaller tv but was fairly spacious with a soaking tub and comfortable bed. Roomier than what I had anticipated. But the joy of the airstream was the collection of eclectic and whimsical art pieces. Truly the host must have been an artist at heart. I normally like staying in modern hotels, but this was a great change of pace experience. The host was super responsive answer all questions timely. She provided wine and nice goodies to welcome guest.

This cabin and air stream are super cute. The neighborhood is nice and quiet and the neighbors we meet were all friendly. Quick drive into Waco for fun activities, visiting with family and good places to eat. We will definitely be back.

This was a perfect weekend getaway. The pictures do not do this place justice! It’s beautiful! The river view amazing!!

Very cute and cozy cabin right on the Brazos. If you are intending to go fishing, keep this in mind…. The yard drops off very steep to the river bank. The river is really not accessible to go fishing or swimming. There is not a pathway or steps to get down to the river. Fishing was out of the question. I was disappointed because I rented the cabin just to go fishing. Other than that the cabin and Areostream trailer were very comfortable and the property is decorated so cute. Also if you are bringing a pet, the fenced yard is gravel and very very small. The grass part is not fenced and very dark at night so if not careful you or your pet could fall off the drop off to the river if you don’t pay attention.
There is a big deck with seating and outdoor speakers to hang out on and BBQ pits to cook.

Our family stayed here for an extended weekend. The location was perfect for us. We loved the views of the Brazos. Everything was clean and good working order. We did have a difficult time getting into the camper/trailer, but a phone call to VRBo and then the owner remedied that. We had a really good experience!

Enjoyed our time here!! Everything described is exactly like listed. We tremendously enjoyed our stay and want to go back. Love the view, the shower, the Airstream decor, the cabin decor, etc.... makes me wish it was mine!

Sometimes pictures are deceiving but this cabin and Airstream were even better than the pics. Both were adorable and the location was great for us. We didn't want to be in the middle of town (AND we saw a bald eagle on the river!) We only stayed three days but could really have stayed longer and enjoyed Waco and the property more. Thank you for a delighful birthday trip!!!

Perfect Getaway
This was the perfect place for a few days away. This place was very clean and the perfect size for my wife and I. We also really enjoyed the location, just outside of town and quiet. We loved the little touches everywhere, including the peanut M&M jar. 😊
We will definitely stay here on our next trip to Waco.

Perfect getaway by the river
We were in Waco to attend orientation at Baylor for my son and the rented both the cabin and airstream. The location was great only about 12-15 minutes to drive to everything. Both the cabin and airstream were perfect; loved the decor, we had goodies, comfy beds, games, cold air, quite area and the outdoor shower was my sons favorite! Will definitely go back!

Cute River Cabin
Fun little cabin on the river about 15 mins outside of Waco. Stayed with a couple girlfriends for a mini-reunion in lieu of camping, so we got the outdoorsy vibes and option to sit outside, but could retreat to the ac when it got too hot or the bugs got hungry.
I don’t feel like the listing made it clear there wasn’t swimming allowed in the river. We brought our inflatable paddle boards with us, and one of the reasons in particular I booked this cabin, was because I didn’t see swimming restrictions, but once we got to the cabin there were multiple signs that said “no swimming.”
The main bed was pretty comfortable, the sofa bed felt like a sofa bed, despite having a memory foam mattress.
I’m fairly certain Moaning Myrtle* may have taken up residency in the toilet as she moans every time you flush (*Harry Potter reference for those who don’t know). Either that, or a pack if whiney dolphins. The jury is still out on that one.
Nice touches like snacks and even a bottle of wine. Decently well stocked kitchen (needs oil) and no dishwasher so you gotta wash everything by hand. Also for the amount of cleaning you have to do on your own (hand wash dishes, start the laundry) I don’t really get why it’s $90 extra. Seems like it should be $50 at most.
Also glad no one was renting the airstream right next door or things wouldn’t have been as private.

Perfect river cabin for the two of us.
Perfect little cabin on the river to unplug and unwind. Waco proper and anything you might need or want to do is within 15 minute drive. Neighborhood was quiet and the neighbors were friendly. Did I mention this place is clean?! Not a cobweb, spot of dust, or bug to be found. The floors are stained concrete so dirt would easily hide but not here! I also appreciated that the owner had handsoap, paper towels, and Kleenex. I usually bring all of that with me so that was a thoughtful touch in addition to the welcome basket. The Airstream on the property that is also available for rent is precious from the outside. This is a great property for two couples to stay if both are rented. All in all a great VRBO experience and relaxing week away.

Waco Birthday trip
We loved the condo. It was great that each couple had their own bathroom. I will say that the couple that stayed in the master wasn’t sure if it was because of the cotton shower curtain but their shower got the floor all wet every time they used it.
