“Amazing Airbnb! Blown away with the character and design. Feels like you’re at home. Walkable to everything Magnolia, delicious restaurants, spice village, union hall, Waco running and so much more. The backyard is gorgeous and so relaxing! The hosts are incredibly kind and so helpful for anything you need. This airbnb is the absolute perfect place to stay and worth every penny.

This unique home, originally built in the 1900’s, has been newly remodeled, professionally decorated, and completely updated - ready to share new memories!

We were able to retain this home's original wood floors and distinct wood plank walls, while remodeling to create en-suite bathrooms for each bedroom, and an “open” hallway that modernizes the entire main areas into a gracious open floor plan.

"All I can say is Wow! We LOVED this house. Super close to downtown Waco! The character, charm, and beautiful spaces made our girls' weekend at the Silos the best experience! We sure loved the personal touches and all the decorator’s eye candy. If you want to stay in an upscale, well-decorated space, this is the house for you!

Girlfriends trip

We had a wonderful time at Magnolia Oasis. Wendy is a wonderful, helpful, friendly host. Her property is beautiful, well decorated with some fun details like vintage games and a victrola that we played for hours. Everything was extremely clean and comfortable. We couldn’t enjoy the pool and the beautiful backyard due to the rain. Anyone staying at this property will have a great time!

Wonderful Cozy home close to so much

We were very impressed from the minute we arrived at Magnolia Oasis! Very easy access, everything worked for entry and when the door opened there was music playing and lights on. Every room is beautiful! We thought the first bedroom was the master then found there are really 2 masters and the bunk queen bed is unique, and would be fun for a family with kids. We were just two and there to celebrate our 53rd anniversary. The Magnolia Plantation is visible from the front porch, the walk is easy and we walked everywhere. The pool was clean the backyard is very nice to just chill. There is a S’mores set up to use if you like as well as granola bars and assortment if chips. Coffee bar offers you plenty of choices as well. No need to bring soap, shampoo or conditioner they are furnished. All bathrooms were supplied amply even skin care to pamper yourself and bath salts for the huge beautiful tub. Lots of pool towels as well as fun things to use in the pool.Even cozy blanket throws if you like, to use when watching TV. Magnolia Oasis did not disappoint It is Fabulous!We would love to go back with our adult “ kids” and enjoy for a longer stay. This is truly a comfortable charming home! And we loved the original wood floors.

Bucket List Family Trip Accomplished

This is the best rental home I've stayed in ever. The design, layers and comforts were amazing! Loved the connection to Magnolia (the reason for our visit) and the thought....all of the extra touches, to make the guests' stay perfect. All of our needs, and then some needs we didn't even think of, were covered. One of the things we appreciated most was how delicious the house smelled!

Great place!

My husband and 5 kids stayed in your home and it was absolutely perfect. We walked to the Silos multiple times and visited museums. The Mexican restaurant nearby was great. The house was perfect for us. My kids loved the pool and the house was clean and smelled great. We would definitely stay here again.

Magnolia Oasis

I wish we would’ve spent more than 2 nights in this wonderful home! It was perfect for our trip to Magnolia Market! It was literally one block away from the market as well as great shops and restaurants. We never moved our car after arriving! This is the most welcome I have felt-they provide everything, and so many extras! We had fire starters, s’mores, all the soaps and laundry detergents. It was just like home as we walked in, and the music was playing. The backyard is unbelievably perfect! The pool was warm and clean. The boys loved the pool robot! They had footballs to throw and bean bags to play. Our family played a few of the board games and the interactive video game they had.We had zero problems, but staff reached out and offered to help provide anything we may need as well as recommendations for the area. The checkin process was so simple, just a code and we got right in. I highly recommend this home. So well decorated and well stocked!

We’ll be back

3 couples and 2 kids stayed here while watching a volleyball tournament. SUCH A BLAST! Having stayed at many VRBOs, this host thought of everything. Plenty of towels, clean sheets, extremely comfortable mattresses, high-quality bath products, cool game table device, sparkling pool and everything was spotless. Add to that that we could walk to numerous restaurants and the Magnolia Silos and coffee, shops, etc. I will be definitely staying here again.

Absolutely spectacular!

We stayed to move my freshman daughter into her dorm at Baylor. It was so convenient to everything, downtown, shops, the campus, her dorm, it was perfection. The house itself is decorated nicer than any vrbo I’ve ever stayed in - it is fully equipped for absolutely anything you need! The pool is heaven on hot texas days, we got in every night. The manager is so nice, we were annoying b/c we shipped some stuff to ourselves for her dorm and she was helpful and forgiving despite some arriving when we were not there! The decor is fabulous, the snacks were such a nice treat! There is a s’mores station, my kids LOVED that. The beds are comfortable - we only had 4 people but could have brought another family probably! Literally not one criticism or suggestion. Thank you so much! We will definitely recommend to anyone who asks!

Track Meet

Beautiful house, inside and out. Loud party next door, but it was Friday in a college town (I pack earplugs). So, to be expected. The houses next to, and across from were beautiful. I would not venture out on foot, because the surrounding neighborhood was, in my opinion, a bad side of town. Lots of vagrants wandering the streets and parking lots. The house itself felt safe and clean. We loved the heated pool! If I could suggest one thing, maybe change the sleeping arrangements online. I am a family of 8. Two parents of five girls and one boy. The full bunks could fit two people each, but my son, would not have enjoyed sleeping with his sister. Luckily, he decided to stay home last minute. All in all it was enjoyable.

Wonderful House

This house was stunning, and exactly what you would picture for a house in Waco. Also, provided everything you could need while staying out of town, plus more. The outdoor pool was heated and wonderful. We made s'mores with the kids under the gazebo, which was very relaxing. We played games every evening on the family gaming tablet, which was the first time we have ever seen that and my kids absolutely LOVED it. My family and I are true Texans and LOVE a house that is able to get cold, especially when it is hot outside. This house did just that perfectly! Very close to Silos and other downtown attractions. We will definitely being staying here on our next trip to Waco!!! Highly Recommend.

5-Star Designer Home

Where should I begin to give this place a 5-star review? I would say, from the moment we stepped in to the house, we were greeted with beautiful fragrance, music, and a cooled home as we arrived from a 100 degree outdoor weather. Oh, and a bottle wine to relax! This is a well-loved house, Lisa and David are amazing hosts. We were there only for 2 nights (too short), and we would discover many personal touches through this beautiful home. Decor - my family is so spoiled. As a big fan of home remodeling shows, we were amazed that we get to live in a truly designer home. The name “urban penny” truly lives up to its name. We would go through the house almost like playing “where is Waldo” as we stumble across hidden pennies through the house. This is so fun. Cleanliness - this is top quality. All the corners of the house is touched upon. The beddings were clean. Bathrooms were spotless! Amenity - plenty of comfortable towels in the bathroom, bedding were super plush and comfy. There is even eye masks in the master bathroom to put on while you take a warm bath in the beautiful tub. It was like spa living! The kitchen is well-stocked with all the gadgets and beautiful utensils. There is plenty of detergents/soap and the laundry room is well-stocked with products as well. While staying at this place you truly felt “the love” of the host. Thank you do much David and Lisa.

This property is so perfect. Had everything we needed and more. Comfortable beds, fluffy towels and very clean. Decor is outstanding. Best house we have stayed in from VRBO and we've stayed in a lot throughout Texas. Parked our car and walked to everything. So many places to eat close by and fun things to do. Had a set up to make s'mores out back in the fire pit. We couldn't have been happier.
