About this house rental
Our historical home was on the first episode of season 5 of Fixer Upper. When Mrs. Gaines toured the house as the second option they called it #TheRealFixerUpper! It was not a home ultimately designed by the Gaines's but we are honored to be a small part of the filming. The excitement for the home was captured best when Joanna Gaines said "I feel like a dog with a T-bone steak, I am like please give ME the T-bone steak!"
Since its renovation in 2017 The Morrow House has been featured in Cottage Style Magazine, Modern Farmhouse Style Magazine and Modern Texas Living Magazine. The Morrow House is also featured in the new book titled "Historic Homes of Waco Texas".

From the large chandeliers to the tiniest of trim work, this home is one of the most beautiful homes in Waco!
The home is owned by Kimberlee Rodriguez and her family. They are thrilled to share this Central Texas treasure with visitors while they explore the wonders of Waco. The home has a beautiful living space, fully equipped kitchen, and a large dining area for everyone to gather for dinner, games and great conversation. Our beds are luxurious and each bedroom has a private bath.
The Morrow House is close to great shopping, delicious places to eat and Baylor University!

A bit about the Rodriguez Family:
Travel, and shared experiences have always been a central part of our family time. In today’s world the demands of career and activities can pull us in many directions, but getting out of town together or sharing unique experiences has always given us meaningful ways to connect and recharge. When we moved to Waco three years ago an extraordinary journey began for each of us. One of the unexpected blessings was that we had over 80 houseguests during the first year! Everyone wanted to visit and explore Waco and we were his or her guides. It was great for us to show Central Texas to our friends and family because it encouraged us to get out and explore in new ways, and gave us new opportunities to get to know our new home. Each of our guests has had different ideas of what they want to see and do when they visit; some want to drive in the country and shop old antique shops or see pastures full of cattle. Others want to watch a Baylor athletics event and eat at one of our great local restaurants. Some want to shop all weekend and others want to walk along the Brazos and see lightning bugs! However all of them leave here loving the people and the pace of life in Waco.
After Amy and I met, I felt that the Morrow House was a part of our family journey here in Waco. The home’s beauty, history and resurrection story make it a beautiful haven for people to escape to. Our family, including my parents who moved here to join us two years ago, is thrilled to have an opportunity to share Waco with our guests from all corners of the world as we’ve been doing for the last three years.

This property was exquisitely taken care of!!! It was absolutely fabulous! The most beautiful, most clean, most hospitable VRBO my family has stayed in. Ever! And we have stayed in many. 3 different ones just on this trip. We will be back!

The ad said the house was “featured” on season 5 of Fixer upper, it was, but it is not a “Fixer upper” house, if that’s what you are looking for. However very much in the same style. The neighborhood is a little sketchy. A beauty bar across one corner, apartments on the other. Construction happening next door. I’m sure this used to be an amazing neighborhood. Because of its age the inside doors don’t close well. Slide bolts have been added to bathroom and bedroom doors. Problem is because the beautiful vintage doors don’t fit exactly, the bolts hold them really tight, hard for kids or those with dexterity issues to open the bolted closed doors
We had problem with Wi-Fi and direct tvs, Owner came over to fix, but had to order equipment. Beyond her control- but we missed it after long days.

A dream come true for my 92 year old Mom to stay in a Chip and Johana Fixer Upper. She has followed that show for a long time. Brought the family together to the Magnolia Empire.

Oh my goodness! Charming doesn’t even begin to describe this retreat! The first moment you open the door you feel like your stepping back in time with all the current amenities you would need during your stay. It’s clean, extremely comfortable and was quiet. We enjoyed grilling steaks, seeing our son, freshman year at Baylor. Highly recommend this for a girls get away( we felt very safe) or a family gathering. Thank you Morrow house, for a fabulous stay, cookies and hand towel. ❤️

My family and I just stayed at the Morrow house and we absolutely loved everything about it! We regularly stay in Vrbo's on our vacations and this was my favorite property yet!
The layout was perfect for our needs with the three spacious bedrooms with private bathrooms, the overall design and decor are stunning, you truly feel like you are staying in something out of a magazine (because you are!), it was also clean, well appointed with everything you need for a comfortable stay, and the location is convenient to all the main Waco sites. Communication and the check in / out process were all also fantastic! Oh, and the amazing cookies, tea towel, and beds that felt like you were being hugged by a cloud were all an added bonus.
If I had to say any cons, the only thing I was a bit concerned about was the neighborhood when we first arrived. However, after being in Waco a few days we quickly learned that the city is still very much in a time of transition / revitalization and this was actually one of the better neighborhoods / locations.
All that said, if you are going to Waco, do yourself a favor and stay and the Morrow house, it is so worth it!
