This pet-loving, bike centered haven is a short walk from a delightful playground and skate park. With a welcoming front porch and a fenced yard, it's perfect for a relaxing escape and a place for your furbabies to frolic in safety after a day on the trails. Our fully-equipped kitchen is perfect for family gatherings. Nearby downtown, Cameron Park and the zoo are just a short bike ride away.

* A living room with enough seating for 8 people and 75" TV for Netfilx and chill or any of the other streaming options we provide.
* Dining room with a table that comfortably seats 8

My friends and I chose this place for a girls / working weekend. We like historic homes and as soon as I opened the door, I literally squealed “Aren’t you the cutest!!!!” This house was amazing!!! Such care went into the restoration. The wood floors and china cabinet were just beautiful!! Handmade quilts are scattered in the bedrooms and living rooms. Super comfortable and inviting!! Extra comfy sofa, big screen tv, and stocked coffee bar. We loved our stay and jokingly said we were going to research squatters rights. 😂. Can’t wait to come back to your lovely home.

The property was immaculate; the mattresses were comfortable, the kitchen had all the amenities, the yard was fenced for our pupper and it had gigantic trees with a tree house to boot… We saw red birds and all kinds of birds. The home was very quiet on the weekends but, somewhat busier during the bustle of work hours during the work days. The location was a very convenient location to the silos, shopping, and local restaurants. Mica was kind and prompt with her greeting, directives, and responses.

Everything was good. Plenty of room and comfortable beds. Very quite neighborhood. Beautiful porch area. The only thing is that it smelled like an old house when we got there but we soon got used to it. Host was very kind to call us about leaving clothes in the dryer and we picked them up from the porch. Overall, a very nice stay. Thank you!

We stayed at this cozy family home on our recent trip to Waco for a family wedding. Everyone was very pleased with the accommodations, even the puppies!
Furnishings, kitchen, laundry, bedrooms were all very well appointed and felt like home.
Communication with the host was outstanding!
We are all from the Waco area so we were familiar with the neighborhood and had no surprises there. Just expect a bit of traffic noise on the busy front street when sitting on the porch. The backyard was more peaceful and very nice. If you have a car and can go a few blocks to the newer areas with restaurants and shops, we would suggest that. Otherwise, it was very easy and quick to get across town and to the highways from this location.
We had a great time!

We came into Waco to visit Baylor and loved this house! Huge backyard with a cute play structure. We were thrilled to bring our dogs who loved the backyard. The house itself was set up great and very comfortable. Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well equipped. The owner sent us some recommendations for restaurants near by and they were great. Even though my husband went to Baylor and we have been to Waco recently, it was nice to have the recommendations! Thank you so much for hosting us at your house. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit! Thanks.

We loved how cute the house was, it was a real joy to stay at! The kids loved playing on the club house, the host did a really great job of making the house family friendly and having tons of games to play! The only bad things were the driveway was to high and in bad condition and there was 4 possums that came out to the backyard at night! We will definitely stay here again if we are in Waco!

My family of four loved staying in this sweet, immaculately clean house! The kids loved using the beds in the study and playing outside in the backyard. The house was well stocked with games, books, and everything we needed for a peaceful and pleasant stay! Great communication from hosts as well! Would happily stay here again on our next visit!
