What a wonderful home to stay in during our trip to Waco!

This was a fantastic home to come back to after a day of running around. So fun to stay in a Fixer-Upper house. We enjoyed the games, the cable TV, wonderful towels & puttering around your beautiful kitchen. It was like staying @ a friend’s house. It would high on my list of homes I would suggest to stay in. Thank you, Jeff & Sara, for allowing us to enjoy your beautiful home!

Weekend celebration!

We came to Waco to celebrate our daughter’s wedding. It was the perfect place to rest after each event We had plenty of room for five adults To spread out yet, be close together. My husband and I grew up in Waco and I actually grew up right down the street from where we stayed so it was so nice to reminisce and enjoy the neighborhood again so close to everything we needed: shopping restaurants, and all the activities we had a great day thanks for sharing your home

Waco Trip

This property was perfect for a girls trip. It was in a quiet neighborhood close to the Silos. The property was exactly like the pictures online.
