Family trip to Waco

My family and I had the absolute best time at this property. The kids and dogs had a blast running and playing in the huge beautiful backyard. The neighbor, Lafell, was super sweet and helpful. The house was exactly as pictured in the TV show. The location was super convenient to everything in Waco and could not have asked for a better host. Will definitely be returning with our family!

Cutest & Coziest

We stayed here with another couple for Baylor's homecoming weekend. It was so close to Baylor, Nimfas and the Silos. A lovely and very cozy place. We all thought the beds were extremely comfortable and the layout still felt spacious at maximum capacity.

Cute and fun, but a little dirty

It was very cool to get to stay in a Fixer Upper house! The property manager was quick to respond and very clear with expectations for check in and out. The house though, was very dusty and buggy (though maybe that’s the norm for summers in Texas?).

Cute, fun, close

My daughters and I had so much fun staying at a place flipped by the Gaines’s. Gave us a real feel for what the couple has done for housing and design in Waco. Plenty of room for fun and relaxation. Very glad to have a good AC on the super hot days. Nice back deck. It’s an easy trip to the Silo’s etc.

Cozy, beautiful home.

We loved staying in the Little House on the Prarie. The interior of the house is so cozy and peaceful. It’s decorated beautifully to compliment chip and Jos work! The neighbor was extremely kind, as were the hosts. We lost power for a few hours(storms) but we had a fun night of apples to apples(provided by Kristi) in the candlelight. I will remember this trip with joy :)

Waco Bungalo

We have two children that livecin Texas one in Houston. I had a work trip to Austin. Waco seemed like a great meeting place for a quick vist with bothnkids and their spouses. Plus I had to visit the Magnolia Silos. Cute house with comfy beds. Not as close to downtown as i would have liked.

Precious House

Upon arrival, my husband and I were concerned because of the location of the house but we were pleasantly surprised after entering the home. Very clean and perfectly decorated! Seriously the most comfortable bed that I’ve slept in at a VRBO (and I’m picky!). The neighborhood was so quiet that we could have easily slept all morning. The backyard is huge and there’s a nice little seating area with a fire feature on the back deck. Very cute and charming home!

Tranquility

We absolutely loved staying in this home. We especially enjoyed browsing through all the Magnolia magazines and we started reading the book The Magnolia Story that was on the shelf. We were not able to finish reading the book so on our drive home we listened to the audio book and we were blessed. Thank you for providing all the basic necessities for our stay and we will definitely be renting this place in the future. It was a peaceful and blessed time. Cozy house!

Room for improvement

We enjoy the house however we feel there is room for improvement. You are need to get an exterminator to take care of the wasp problem at the front and back of the house. The house should have been dusted before guess arrive. The drains need to be cleaned in bathroom. The laundry room needs to be cleanr

Thermostat

There is something wrong with the thermostat. Kept turning it down to 72 and during the day and night I would go up by itself. Woke up in the middle of the night hot. Got up at 2:00 am and it was 77. I'm a 53 yr old woman and I just cannot do hot during the night and I'm sure other people staying there would agree.

Disappointing

Was looking forward to relaxing on what appeared to be a huge deck in the pictures, but was much smaller. But more disappointed that the furniture was so dirty we wouldn't sit on it. Really need to replace the shredded rug too. Same with furniture on front porch. I realize it was an older home, but the closets were so musky we hung our clothes in the living room. One of the drain plugs in the sink would not open, so we had to take turns using just one. Felt very uncomfortable, women alone, with no coverings for windows in kitchen. Did not feel the locks on the doors provided adequate safety. Outside bedroom doors were unlocked when we arrived. I have never left a review like this. But spending that much money and being that disappointed was a bit much.

About the host

Hosted by Kristi Runyan

Host profile image
I grew up with deep roots in the the Central Texas area and have called Waco home for over 25 years. Raised my three kiddos in this community & love the small-town feel that our community offers. I have enjoyed watching the transformation of Waco from a sleepy lil college town to what is now one of the most highly sought after travel destinations in the country! Such a joy & blessing to have the opportunity to share my home & my love for this community with people from across the world.

Why they chose this property

The Batson family, who were on THE Fixer Upper show, contacted me about their beloved home as they were wanting to expand their family. This quaint, sweet home would simply not accommodate their growing family. Since I had been successfully renting & been sharing THE BARNDOMINIUM (Also from HGTVs FIXXER UPPER), this home was a perfect addition to my vacation rental family!

What makes this property unique

This home is so charming and quaint! It has such a nice open floor plan that you feel very connected from every room in the house. It has the same feel that captivated viewers on the show. The back porch is ideal for cooking out & lounging out back and enjoying an evening in Waco, Fixer Upper style!
