Beautiful property!
Jerri’s place was a beautiful place for our stay in Waco. It was very clean and super comfortable. We enjoyed using the fire pit one evening and it was quick and easy to get downtown. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Relaxing Stay
The guest house is located about 10 to 15 min outside of Waco. It was close enough for us to visit Cameron Park, the Zoo, Dr. Pepper Museum, Homestead Heritage, Sports Hall of Fame, and of course, the Magnolia Silos. But the location was far enough so it was a very relaxing stay- away from the main part of the city of Waco. We loved it. It had everything you need in the kitchen. Overall it was a great experience and would stay here again.

Enjoyed the stay
My wife and son and I had a great time staying at this house. We loved the peacefulness of it, and it was only about 10 minutes from downtown if you want to go there. Not far at all. If I had to nitpick at all, I’d say the WiFi could have been a little faster, but honestly it wasn’t a problem. Better not to be using it too much on vacation anyways.

Perfect country cottage
Immaculately clean and impressive attention to details like shampoo/conditioner, extra throws, and outlet adapters. Just the right distance outside of town to enjoy the country but have a only a short drive to where you want to be. Host information was thorough and accurate. Great place to stay!

Perfect for trip to the horse show with daughter and mom.
I was afraid that it would be not convenient to the extraco center, but it was in fact close. There is also a great spot to grab a meal or a drink just down the road. I will definitely book again!

Everything you can think of
My sister and I had a great girsl getaway. The house was very clean and was decorated nicely. They had all the little things that people sometimes forget on vacation available; ie coffe, coffee creamer, shampoo, conditioner, board games etc... too much to list but you can tell the owners want to make sure that their renters have a relaxing time. Also, very good communication.

Open Spaces and Fresh Places
We dropped into Waco for a quick fishing trip and for my wife and daughter to visit Magnolia Market. This location was just a little more of a drive to the Market, but the price and the warmth of the property was well worth it. If you love open spaces, cleanliness, freshness (the home feels new, property is well manicured) I would highly recommend The Guest House! Our hosts even put out extra wood for the outdoor fire pit for us for our grandbaby, we didnt get to use it (tuckered out playing board games), but the host is gracious and very responsive to make sure even the small things are done. Would definitely stay again.

This place was cute and our family enjoyed our stay. It's not the most toddler friendly place but once we put some stuff out of reach of 3 year old triplet hands, it was much better. They had everything you could need and we loved all the blankets!

The way a vacation should be. Everything is provided in every room including the kitchen. Clean and relaxing. Lots of space to be outside and play, or take a stroll to hear nature. Second time rental and it will not be the last. Not far from town either.
