We enjoyed all!!! The only thing i would suggest is in the full bath upstairs correct the peeling ceiling and a heavier shower curtain as with magnets you have to fight with it -- the shower head is Great!

Just the right size for two. It was comfortable, cool (we were there during a 100 degree heat advisory), and cozy.

This property is a 2 story garage apartment. Parking was a bit tricky because there are narrow, walled entrances and exits to get into and out of the driveway. A large truck may not be able to do so. The neighborhood surrounding the house is a bit rough. There was loud music across the street and cars revving up their engines. The evening we arrived, there were other guests staying in the main house and it was difficult to park and open all 4 doors of my car because we had to park in between the two cars. Upon entering the house, we encountered an issue and contacted the owner-who responded immediately. The following day she had someone come check on the issue. However, the issue persisted and that really put a damper on our stay. The full bath has a cosmetic issue in that paint is peeling from the ceiling in large pieces. The shower feels like a power washer and it's definitely in need of a new shower curtain. The stairwell could use more lightening because it's very dark. Other than that, the two bedrooms were sufficient and we slept well. Communication with the owner was excellent! Also, it's easy to get to other places around Waco from the apartment.,

Area spotty but honestly, not a soul bothered us. And in Waco, all the area is spotty. Main house is pretty on outside. Don’t know about inside. Garage house is nice outside and Inside. Inside has pretty steep stairs - just in case you don’t do stairs. But they didn’t really bother us. Kitchen small and usable downstairs, plus a powder room. You have to step up to get out of the kitchen so watch that step. I put a nightlight out so I could see it at night. I kept forgetting. Upstairs has loft living area. Small but very doable. 2 bedrooms with nice beds, but firm. Slept fine. Bathroom connects to one of the bedrooms. All-in-all we had a nice stay. It’s really best for 2 people as seating is limited. But I went with a friend and we had a pretty good trip. Would I recommend? Yes. It’s “old” but not outdated or “gross.” No bugs. Clean linens. Clean everything. And the owner is very friendly.

We had a great time visiting Waco. The house was very comfortable and clean and the host communicated all of our needs. It was a short drive to Baylor University. We would absolutely stay here again!

Probably because of the misleading title on VRBO, I expected to see a touch of Gaines' magic. Sorry, only the big house was redone years ago. It is now, from the outside, in need of painting and maintenance. But back to the garage apt. Our welcome was tempered by the difficulty of squeezing past parked cars on the gravel driveway in order to reach our entrance door. The driveway has such an angled access from 20th St. we were afraid of scraping the underside of our car. We ended up parking in front of a neighbor's house.
The garage apt. is very small. A downstairs kitchen is fully equipped but narrow, with stool seating for 3 at a hightop. A steep stairway has a handrail on the lower section and a wobbly railing above, leading up to a common area (w/the unit's only tv), a bathroom, and two bedrooms. The beds are comfortable but very tall, and the smaller bedroom has scarcely enough room to maneuver between the bed and the wall.
The location, not too far from downtown, is fine. The street is a little sketchy in parts, but the block we were in felt safe and quiet.
Upon leaving, be aware that you are expected to:
1) carry all trash outside, separating recyclables; 2) strip the linens off the beds;
3) begin laundry of towels in an unlit garage annex where detergent is not readily apparent;
4) tidy the kitchen/bathroom/closets so you are not charged an additional fee for owner-determined incidentals like stolen hangers.
Next time? A hotel.

A QCC Guest House (Quaint, Cozy & Comfortable)
Baylor graduation weekend sent us scurrying for alternate accommodations as hotel rooms became scarce. And--unbeknownst to our graduating daughter--she was also going to receive a marriage proposal and we needed a place to prepare food for a surprise engagement party. The guest house checked all of our boxes. The neighborhood was quiet and friendly. The upstairs bedrooms and living space were very comfortable. We put the galley kitchen to good use preparing hors d'oeuvres for the off-site party. The owner of the property offered us the option to purchase fresh commodities from the local farmers market and worked with us on our late departure when our plans changed suddenly. All in all, it was a very memorable weekend!

Girls’ Get Away
This property was perfect for us! We came down to Waco to get away for a few days and just hang out. The house was just as described, no surprises. The host was super responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again!

Cool, quaint place to stay on the property of a Fixer Upper house
Charmaine and her husband were very kind, the check in process was easy and communication was clear. They even left snacks and some drinks in the kitchen for us!
It was such a cute little cottage, above a garage. The beds were very comfortable!
It was cool to stay in a guest house of a property that was renovated by the Gaines.
I was unsettled when we tried to take an evening stroll on our first night and we were greeted by multiple dogs approaching us with vicious barks and growls from behind their owner’s chain linked fences at multiple neighbors. Some of the fences looked pretty low, like the dogs could jump them, so we turned back home. That made me concerned about the safety of the neighborhood. Nothing else happened, however.
The next morning, I was awoken by a neighbor’s dog barking across the street but the second morning their was no dog barking.
Once I felt safe enough, I thought “I could live in this cottage!” It truly was a cute, quaint, country place that was a well-appointed. It is rustic. The door to the backyard seems a little unsecured (although we could lock it.) It looked like we could sit in the backyard if we wanted to.
I was surprised and concerned on our last morning to hear the garage open. It turned out to be the owners. Although, I would have appreciated a heads up, it was wonderful meeting them and talking with them!

Cozy
Our stay was great! A few friends and I had an alumni event for our fraternity at Baylor and needed a place to stay the night. It was the perfect space for 4 people - super spacious, really cute, and very clean. The location wasn't too far off from campus and downtown Waco. The host was really nice and welcoming and answered any questions we had in a speedy response. Will definitely consider booking again for future Waco visits!

Great Waco getaway spot!
This was a charming garage apartment that lived up to the description to a tee! It was very close to downtown and shopping and was easy to navigate from. Charmanie was very prompt and thorough in her responses and communication and this apartment had everything we needed! Plenty of towels and linens, comfy beds/pillows and even coffee and creamers! I would definitely come back for a stay here.
