The tiny home was exactly as advertised. Everything was clean and comfortable. The host was very attentive. We had everything we needed and more. We attended a wedding nearby at old Bethany and this was only one mile away . Super convenient. We would definitely stay here again ! A little slice of country heaven!!!

Centrally Located/Country Charm

When we come to this area we want to be close to Waco since our daughter is in school there, but we have friends in Temple so this place is right in the middle.

Wonderful Getaway

Such a cute place, all the amenities we needed, and even some that were a pleasant surprise. We wanted something quiet and out-of-the-way, but also not too terribly far to go do fun stuff and this spot was the perfect combination. We will for sure be back!!
