Would stay here again. Very convenient location to Baylor University and the Silos.
The house and location was perfect for what we intended to see; the Silos and downtown Waco. I loved the setup of the house and all 5 of us were very comfortable. The patio out back was fantastic and we spent a lot of time there together sitting and visiting. The house was very clean and had everything we needed.
Very clean and comfortable. All the amenities you would expect and close to everything surrounding downtown Waco and Baylor University. Would stay here again.
Very clean and cute house. The hosts gave great attention to detail in meeting the needs of guests. Very convenient location to eateries, shopping, and Magnolia.
We had a fantastic time! The house was clean and comfortable and had great decor. The layout was perfect and everything was located with ease. It is a great distance to everything there is to do in Waco. I highly recommend this house.
Four of us were in Waco for a teaching conference for 2 1/2 days. Desiree was very responsive via messages before the trip and by phone when we needed help getting in the house.The house was very clean, comfortable, and adorable!
Loved everything about this property. It’s close to everything. It is stylish and comfortable. Host is clear with communication and end of stay responsibilities are minimal.
What a cute property! We met the owner, she was very helpful and attentive. Lots of nice hang out space including a spacious backyard and deck. Close to everything, quiet and clean.
Really cute house close to downtown! Plenty of room for a family of 6 and really enjoyed have two beds each in two of the bedrooms for the kids! Thanks for having us!
We spent 4 nights at this home to move our son into Baylor for his freshman year. The home was updated, clean and was less only a 5-minute drive to campus. The rental has everything you need for a weekend stay, 4 comfortable beds, 2 full bathrooms, fully decked out kitchen and plenty of room.
We will definitely be looking to stay here again when we come out to visit.
Loved the house and had a great and relaxing girls weekend. Shipped, ate out, and spent amazing quality time with friends. Would definitely stay here again.

About the host
Hosted by Desiree Johnson
I'm a married mom with a 20 year old. I was in brand marketing for most of my life. As such, I've been fortunate to have traveled the world with my previous career. Yet, I'm creative at heart, having grown up painting with my mom. I love being able to walk into an old house and see the possibilities no one else can.
About 8 years ago, I began to make the transition into owning a few rental homes. My husband and I are completely self-made and practical... hence tend to be "do it your-selfers". So, it is with lots of hard work and sweat equity that we are thrilled to welcome you into our lovely little abode.
Why they chose this property
I loved the neighborhood. It's historical, hip yet quiet and so close to downtown. There are sculptors, artists and professors moving in now all around us. It's just a few blocks to the river walk so I like to jog along the path and see the old bridges spanning the river, or walk to the Farmers Market on Sunday mornings. Our neighbors are peaceful and nice, it's so quiet here, yet close to all!
What makes this property unique
Large, completely fenced and private back yard with towering trees and a large deck. So close to downtown (just blocks to the river walk and just 1.3 miles to the silos., yet such a peaceful and safe neighborhood. Lovely old architecture in surrounding businesses just a block away where you can find neat eateries, a scratch kitchen bakery, brewery and Jamaican café. The house boasts super tall ceilings with lovely windows that give it a light, fresh and airy feel. The open concept with kitchen and living is great for relaxing and visiting.
