My wife and our two dogs really enjoyed our long weekend at this most charming silo house. The hosts were amazing and made the whole process seamless. If you find your self in the Waxahachie area we recommend you consider this home.
The Silo House is unique but it’s also comfortable. The furniture is functional and there are great indoor and outdoor spaces to enjoy. Owners were on property while I was there but super respectful of privacy. I enjoyed my time and hope to visit again!
This property was very uniquely designed and decorated! We totally enjoyed the stay! The Silo House was very clean, comfortable bed and a really cool shower. The grounds were very nice, private and quiet. If you are looking for something different, this may be the place!
This home is charming, decorated in a really fun way. Very clean. Bed is comfortable, sheets and towels are high quality. The correspondence is directly with the owners and they are very quick to respond to any questions. I highly recommend this property for anyone staying in the area!

About the host
Hosted by Cathy Tamminga
Howdy, Im Lykele Tamminga but you can call me Lee and Cathy and our fur child, Fia. I am from a small northern farm town in Holland and moved to Waxahachie in 1984. I grow up on a dairy farm in Holland and Waxahachie. Cathy is from Hickory NC and moved to Texas in 1979. We were Jr.High sweethearts for 2 years then we went our separate ways. 25 years later we end up back together. We both grow up here... literally just across the fields. I am a grain harvester and Cathy is a homesteader. Starting greenhouses and chicken coops this year. We wanted to share our unique Silo House with others while we are gone for harvest.
Why they chose this property
After the family dairy stopped milking I decided to recycle the grain silo... into our house. I had 15 acres to put it on, so I welding two trailers together and hooked up to the tractor and away we went. I did all the welding and fabrication and had a local builder help with the framing and interior. I studied the sunrises and sunsets so that you could see both views from inside. It truly is peaceful and quiet out here. You can truly feel like you are the only people on Earth.
What makes this property unique
Some of the most beautiful sunrise and sunsets...Weather sitting on the porch or the balcony. There is always a breeze at The Silo House which is great for the Hammock in The BIg Foot Forest. Take a soak in the hot tub and watch the amazing sunsets. Plus you get to stay in a round house that once feed thousands of Dairy Cows... Pretty Cool. And check out our little/big town of Waxahachie. So much to do and see here for all walks of life.
