Just cancel all your other reservations and get to this little slice of heaven (AKA Fannies on 5th) when you’re in Waco! We will never stay anywhere else! We traveled from Dallas, Carrollton, and Austin—3 married couples ages 65-70 that met as young single adults in our Sunday School class 44 years ago. This 100+ year old home is beautifully and tastefully decorated, as clean as can be, spacious, comfy, and inviting. It has some bright & colorful stain glass windows, period architecture, and lot & lots of space for catching up & visiting with family or friends. We all slept well and were all comforted with the electronic gate that provided privacy for our vehicles away from the busy city street. I promise, you cant go wrong with this 5 bedroom, 3 bath 2 story, 2 upper and 2 lower outside porches.

The house was beautifully decorated for Christmas. It was a lovely home and suited us well with the right amount of bedrooms. The only issues we had was the downstairs bedrooms, one was cold and the other warm. Also one of the upstairs bathrooms we could not regulate the water temperature in the shower.

This property was the perfect location for my family. We were celebrating my daughter’s graduation from Baylor, and my mom‘s 83rd birthday, all at Christmas time. There was plenty of room, and the property is just decorated so well! The large dining table and comfortable furnishings, along with extra decorative pieces for the period of the house made everything beautiful but the Christmas decorations really added a wonderful festivity. The windows, fireplaces staircase, and porches are magnificent! We felt very secure in the property. The kitchen has been nicely updated. We found everything that we needed and appreciated the wonderful coffee bar. The property was very clean and was just absolutely perfect! I don’t have any complaints.

Very spacious, clean and centrally located in Waco. Definitely a great place to stay when in Waco.

We met in Waco for Memorial Day. House is beautiful and convenient to downtown attractions. We walked to the Farmer’s Market on Saturday morning. Walked down to the Brazos and through beautiful Cameron Park. Walked to downtown restaurants and coffee shops. The house is spacious with historical character and charm. Huge backyard and parking in the back. We had coffee and visited on the porch, played games around the coffee table in the living room, watched movies. Kitchen has nice coffee bar and is well stocked. Bathrooms have nice towels, shampoo, hairdryer, etc. Beds/pillows were comfortable.

A lot of history and the management company was so fantastic

The house was beautiful, clean and had everything we needed. There were 6 adults and 4 kids. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Easy walk to the Farmer’s Market.

Had lots of fun and relaxing there.

Beautiful old home with a great story. Just the right amount of update and vintage !! Clean and open with an awesome stocked kitchen and dining room to seat 8 people… more room at the bar. Each of the 5 available bedrooms are beautifully decorated differently. Six ladies met from all over on a girls trip!! The house is absolutely wonderful. We have already tried to book a return trip later this year.

Beautiful and well cared for!

We loved the home. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. It was like walking back in time.

Loved the house, great for large family, a couple of families or a group like me, who took my son and 6 friends for a football game. Plenty of bathrooms, lots of space and loved the selection of games and things to do. Myself, LOVED the history of the space. And bonus, very convenient to get around to the best places to visit in WACO!

Love love love this 112 year home. It has been very well maintained & had plenty of room for everyone. Lots of memories made for sure. Great communication for questions and were promptly answered! Very close to the downtown area and enjoyed it all weekend!

Wonderful property that worked out great for our group. Plenty of room for everyone. Great hospitality and communications from our host! Definitely would stay here again!

The house is absolutely beautiful! We throughly enjoyed our stay.

Our family ranged in age from 1 to 63. Home was clean and designed in a way that every room felt special and homey. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms and space in between. The millwork and stained glass windows are so beautiful. Someone did an excellent job maintaining this home. Property manager reached out right away to see if we needed anything. We don’t have complaints and would definitely book this home again. A couple of suggestions for future would be more towels and cookware.

This property is STUNNING! It's an older home that brings nostalgia into full bloom. This home is built very well & still has many original features. The owners have added many new convenience features and appliances without taking away from the character of the home. Hardwood floors, window transiums, antique furniture & wardobes (didn't have closets back in the day), enclosed & open porches large enough to gather groups to visit & my personal favorite, the upstairs living room! 😀 My 11 friends from all over the world gathered here for our dance fitness convention (based out of WACO - REFIT® Revolution) & this home was PERFECT! We invited some other instructors over for a spaghetti supper & there was plenty of room for everyone. We did have a couple questions about an appliance, wifi & possibly an extra stock pot for spaghetti. When I messaged the agency in charge of the home, he was at our location within 10 mins with an additional stock pot for our supper. He was so sweet, personable, southern hospitality at it's best. I never felt rushed, 100% professional. It was 106 degrees, REALLY hot for June in Texas. I was hearing of other properties' air conditioning units going out as they couldn't keep up with the demands of the homes. I inquired with our agency manager if we should be careful with it & he said that the house is built so well, he's never had an issue. And he's right. Even with our extra friends over for supper that evening, the home never got warm inside. Lastly, beds were so comfortable, bedrooms were large, layout was perfect, staircase is phenonmenal & dining room open into the kitchen was a great spot for us all to gather & chat each morning. We even enjoyed a devotion out on the front porch watching the sunrise. I didn't hear anyone mention that they ran out of hot water. Not sure if they have a tankless water heater/on demand hot water, but the water was nice & hot all the time. That's saying ALOT for 12 women living together with 4 FULL BATHROOMS! I know I enjoyed a nice long soak in the claw foot tub each morning! I asked the ladies about staying again, everyone said without hesitation YES! There are many introverts in our group so we loved the spaces to hide away: enclosed porch upstairs above front porch, reading nook by staircase, back upstairs porch, downstairs backyard deck, front porch, laundry room & separate, enclosed entrance for kitchen. Just wish the driveway wasn't so narrow w/ the concrete short walls.

The house was amazing! Loved the location as well! If it hadn’t been so hot, we really could have walked to everything.

We loved our time at this beautiful home! What a gem!

We stayed at Fannie’s and had a wonderful time. There were five of us and we each had our own room. It was great. They supplied coffee at the cutest coffee bar in the kitchen. There was lots of construction going on while we were in Waco. It will be great once it is done. The neighborhood around the property is quite run down. The property itself was wonderful and the host was responsive to our needs. We would stay there again.

Our group of 7 people had a wonderful time in this cute historic home. It was relaxing. It is stocked with Eve we needed. A short walk to Magnolia Silos and downtown. We loved having a bbq and sitting on the back porch. :) we had a wonderful time.

Enjoyed our stay at this property! Easy to rent, check in and check out! Always got a Quick response from rental folks. Beautiful old home with lots of space! Highly recommend!

4 couples from around the US rented the house for a long weekend get together. Perfect location for town down actives, great kitchen/ dining area for meals. We enjoyed all three porches at various times for hanging out and visiting.

Old house with modern conveniences. A very, very nice place. We had a wonderful time here and the property fit my family well. If we return to Waco, we would request this same house.
