Robert was nice and responded quickly when I asked a question but the door knob fell off as soon as we opened the door making it difficult to get out. I called Robert asking to have it fixed but no one ever showed up. Also the stairway bannister was loose, making it a little scary walking up the steep stairs. Also mentioned it right away even giving him permission to come in and fix it while we were gone.

Out only issue was the when we set the thermostat to 70 degrees, it would go back down to 63 or cooler. We kept having to reset it because it would get really cold!

Great place in Waco

We stayed here for Baylor graduation. We had older family members who needed main floor bedrooms. These were great. All bedrooms were very spacious & bathrooms were well equipped. AC was fantastic & house stayed cool. Outdoor area was amazing & we sat outside every night with twinkle lights on. Roberto was very responsive to our questions/needs. Would stay here again with a large group!

Stayed for the second time in less than a year...just as good as we remembered

Property was very well appointed with great instructions / communication from the property manager. A 100 year old home, but very well laid out and plenty of room for everyone. Good location and very secure. Hope to stay again!

Plenty of Room

We were in town for a workshop and needed the space to prep. The large dining room table was perfect for the assembly line of items. We all had our own private rooms and wished we had booked an extra night to truly enjoy the living spaces inside and out.
