About this property

Brazos River Bungalow - Close To Silos & Baylor

This serene newly remodeled 2 bedroom 2 bath bungalow is sure to be your best stay of the year! There is so much to enjoy including a large deck overlooking the Brazos River that guests are allowed to fish, the sights and sounds of wildlife, a fully stocked kitchen and more. The best part is that you are still close to downtown Waco and can get to the Silos within 15 minutes. Can this really be true? Yes!!! Come enjoy!

The queen bed is adjustable and very comfortable. Both beds have Malouf bedding and pillows. The lamps besides the beds have USB ports for charging your phone. We also have a Cornhole game set up and are adding washers and other outdoor games soon.

We are located on the edge of Waco just a few minutes of downtown Waco and shopping. Other places of interest near our home are Highlander Ranch-McLennan Community College, Waco Mammoth National Monument, Waco Regional Airport, Lake Waco Golf Club, Lake Waco, and the Brazos & Bosque Rivers. We are also only 20 minutes to BSR Cable Park.

Other things to note
The tv's available in the living and master bedroom are smart tv's with streaming apps available.

We provide a Keurig Duo as well as creamer, sweeteners and pods.

No cable or satellite.

We have an abundance of wildlife including deer, turkey and a variety of Central Texas birds.

From chaos to peace and quiet

Loved the stay. Thanks for sharing your place! We have family who live by Waco, so from visiting to shopping and site seeing, we can leave the choas and come back to nature and the river. Watching Gods creation and creatures! We were there for 2 weeks and saw deer everyday we were there.

Beautiful property! Cozy and comfortable. Just as described in the listing. Perfect place to catch up and unwind with our son. While still being close enough to Waco and Baylor. Look forward to staying again on our next trip to Waco!

Ironman Race Week

We absolutely loved this home. Near Waco, but out in rural farmland. So quiet and lovely location, overlooking the river. We were in town so I could participate in the Ironman triathlon. Home was close enough to town that we had no trouble getting downtown and back for race events. Very peaceful for post-race rest and recovery. Definitely recommend this property.

Amazing hidden gem!

We came for the eclipse and the Brazos River Bungalow was awesome in every way and made our trip and eclipse experience so much better than we expected. We really appreciated all the lovely touches and features, such as the detailed and easy-to-follow directions, wonderfully comfortable furnishings and lovely decor and lighting, responsive communication, clear signage, relaxing porch and outdoor seating and lighting, good internet, excellent air conditioning, 3 ply toilet paper, bug spray and citronella candles, well stocked basics in the kitchen and bathrooms, jigsaw puzzles, streaming services availability, visitor guides, easy parking, views of the soothing river right from the porch, and close proximity and easy access to the heart of Waco. It all combined to make our trip flawless. Oh and there's a hammock! And cornhole! We decided to watch the eclipse from the front yard, and it was amazing. They even provided eclipse glasses and a souvenir postcard! Highly highly recommend staying here when visiting Waco or anywhere nearby!

We rented this Vrbo for our honeymoon. It was perfect. Quiet, secluded, clean and absolutely gorgeous. It was just what we were looking for. We plan stay again in June 2026 when we return on our next visit if available.

Tranquil

Our stay was beautiful, secluded and comfortable. We had fires, played cornhole, watched the river flow by and listened to the myriad of bird songs. We visited the many nearby attractions then came back to our comfortable bungalow to relax. Thank you for the many thoughtful conveniences and luxuries!!

Wonderful!

Our stay was wonderful. This bungalow is a beautiful, first class property, nestled in the woods on the Brazos. Coffee on the porch was lovely, as was the time we spent inside. The bedding, the showers....all 1st class. The owners were also very accommodating. We will definitely return!

Clean, private, comfortable

Overall, everything was nice, outside was kept up, sitting on the deck in the mornings was nice. (Too may bugs in the evening). A little farther out of town than we thought , so eat while you're in town or plan to cook at home. Would love to have seen a cleared path down to the river, amybe with a landing area of sorts.

Great location

The property was in a great location! Close to town, yet in the country. The place was immaculate! The bathrooms felt like you were at a spa. We loved all the natural light from the windows. We were able to sit outside on the deck for all of our meals. I would definitely recommend this place!
