We have stayed at the Joy House several times and always find it comfortable, clean, and convenient. Also, the manager is very helpful and easy to reach. The Joy House is a few minutes from Downtown and Baylor, which results in great restaurants and shopping. When we want to go downtown, it’s only 10-15 minutes.
Our Bella loves it, too, for the fenced back yard.

This place was excellent! Me and a few coworkers had a big project to take on that took a couple weeks. This place made us feel like we never left our homes. To be able to relax, cook dinner and have our own private rooms was perfect. Gayla, was an awesome host with simple instructions for checking in and out. Could not ask for a better host. I certainly would use this property again for any extended stays.

The home is perfect and our host went well beyond to meet all of our needs. This quiet, comfortable home is well situated for everything you would want to see or do in Waco. If you would like to experience true southern hospitality, select this property.

What a beautiful little home in Waco. It was comfortable, adorably decorated farmhouse-style, and conveniently located. It’s a very safe and quiet neighborhood, the host had Wine in the fridge for us, and it’s very close to the attractions in Waco.
It was also super easy to communicate with our host, Gayla. We enjoyed our stay!

Gayla was absolutely fantastic, we enJOYed the Joy House very much. It was perfect and convenient for everything we needed it for. If Gayla can get full control over the weather in Waco, TX(heat in particular), then this will be THE BEST VRBO AVAILABLE!! 😎😎
Thanks again for everything, and your kindness and generosity in resolving my youngest daughter’s “uh oh!” Can’t recommend this VRBO enough, A+++!

We had a great visit with our family. My nephew graduated from Midway High School and the house was very close to Panther Stadium. His graduation party and all other events were also very close. The house was all that it was advertised to be. Great location.

The JOY house was perfect in every way!
The pictures and description just do not do it justice.
It was an oasis!!
It was spotlessly clean, comfortable and absolutely beautiful!
Gayla thought of everything from a diffuser, to extra plugs near the bed, to a welcome book that included places to eat and things to do.
The neighborhood was great for walking. The neighbors are so friendly.
It was only a very short drive to the Silos and gave a retreat feeling to come “home” to!
Thank you for sharing your home with us!
We will be back!!
Blessings!

Joy House is our favorite place to stay in Waco. We visit often, and it is so convenient for food restaurants and shopping. Only takes around 15 minutes to get Downtown, Magnolia, or to Baylor. We prefer to stay at Joy House than downtown. There is much less traffic and we feel safer.
This time we enjoyed sitting on the veranda enjoying the bottle of champagne that was left for us on our arrival. Special touches make a difference!
10.0
It’s so nice to stay in a house so we’ll furnished, even to the most minute detail. The beds are comfortable, the WiFi works great, bottle of champagne waiting upon arrival. We bring our little dog, who enjoys the fenced in backyard with decorative lighting in the trees. The location is near many good restaurants, as well. Each time we come to Waco, we hope the Joy House is available.

Everything about the home was great. Easy check in process and good communication from host. Well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, nice bath towels, toiletries, outdoor furniture underneath a large shade tree, the list goes on. We appreciated the basket of snacks that were left for us. Very thoughtful touches by the host. We would stay happily here again

We are a retired couple wanting a short vacation within a days drive of central Kansas. We chose Waco not knowing what to expect. The
Joy house met our needs perfectly. A very friendly host, great house in a quiet neighborhood, and a fenced in backyard for our pet Yorkie.
We didn't know a lot about Waco and were surprised about the available attractions. Magnolia of course, but Dr. Pepper museum, Texas Ranger
Hall of Fame, nice zoo, and Homestead Heritage were all worth the stop.

We loved our stay at Joy House! Everything was just as described and Gayla was wonderful to work with. We could tell that she takes a lot of pride in her property and making her guests happy! We very much enjoyed the snacks and wine she left for us, and the sweet hand written note! The Christmas tree was also a cozy touch!
This weekend girls trip was a birthday gift for our mom, and we made the best memories! If ever back in Waco, we wouldn’t hesitate to stay at Joy House!

This was our second stay at Joy House. It is perfect for us. The neighborhood is quiet and tidy. The home is exceptionally clean and has everything we need. It is in a perfect location for us to visit family. We very much enjoyed the Cotton Belt Trail that is pretty closed to the home. We will be staying again.

Many of the typical Waco hotels were fully booked for move-in weekend at Baylor. I was traveling on business and decided to try this home as an alternate option. It was a great choice. Everything was as advertised and it was a wonderful stay.

The JoyHouse was wonderful and perfect for 4 adults and one infant. The home is open concept, beautifully decorated and offered everything we needed plus some special touches which included a bottle of wine and snacks upon arrival. With the hot Texas weather, it was refreshing to come back to this home with air conditioning. It was located in a nice neighborhood and about 15 minutes to the Magnolia silos. We would highly recommend this home for a stay in Waco.

Cozy, spotlessly clean home with great location
My family and I travel to Waco often to visit family and this was our third time staying at Joy House. The experience is top-notch with great communication with the host, spotlessly clean home all the amenities one could need or want. If she'll have us, we'll continue to come back time and time again whenever we visit Waco!

Perfect, cozy & clean!
The property was clean, cozy & perfect for our trip to Waco. We were 5 individuals who had plenty of room to gather and chat after a long day of adventures. Gayla was so sweet with all the extra attention to detail within the property and provided us with a sweet welcome basket. I loved the US map in the living room that had pins from all over the US of previous visitors. The home truly makes you feel at home! Great job and would love to stay at the Joy House in the future!
