“Amazing Airbnb! Blown away with the character and design. Feels like you’re at home. Walkable to everything Magnolia, delicious restaurants, spice village, union hall, Waco running and so much more. The backyard is gorgeous and so relaxing! The hosts are incredibly kind and so helpful for anything you need. This airbnb is the absolute perfect place to stay and worth every penny. Will 110% be staying in this home again when we come back to visit!” ~Katie July 2024


Self-check-in. Keyless entry via keypad at the front door. We will message you a unique code before checking in. Guests have access to the entire house and backyard.

This unique home, originally built in the 1900’s, has been newly remodeled, professionally decorated, and completely updated - ready to share new memories!

We were able to retain this home's original wood floors and distinct wood plank walls, while remodeling to create en-suite bathrooms for each bedroom, and an “open” hallway that modernizes the entire main areas into a gracious open floor plan.

"All I can say is Wow! We LOVED this house. Super close to downtown Waco! The character, charm, and beautiful spaces made our girls' weekend at the Silos the best experience! We sure loved the personal touches and all the decorator’s eye candy. If you want to stay in an upscale, well-decorated space, this is the house for you!
- Vanessa, 2023

Awesome place to stay!

295 Steps to Silos was a perfect place to stay. The accomodations were very warm and inviting. The pool, the snacks, plus the distance to the Silos was nothing short of amazing. Thank you so much!

Amazing house!!

This home was amazing!! From the moment you walk in you feel welcomed. The smell of the home is incredible, the little snacks and coffee bar to the bathrooms being completely stocked with everything you could need. They made this place feel so comfortable and like home away from home. Located right by the silos and other museums so you can walk to a lot of things. The pool was perfect even though it rained the majority of our stay, my kids still swam in the rain. But the biggest hit for our family was the awesome game table!! So much fun! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing home with us!! We will definitely stay here again when in town!

Great place!

My husband and 5 kids stayed in your home and it was absolutely perfect. We walked to the Silos multiple times and visited museums. The Mexican restaurant nearby was great. The house was perfect for us. My kids loved the pool and the house was clean and smelled great. We would definitely stay here again.

Girlfriends trip

We had a wonderful time at Magnolia Oasis. Wendy is a wonderful, helpful, friendly host. Her property is beautiful, well decorated with some fun details like vintage games and a victrola that we played for hours. Everything was extremely clean and comfortable. We couldn’t enjoy the pool and the beautiful backyard due to the rain. Anyone staying at this property will have a great time!

Bucket List Family Trip Accomplished

This is the best rental home I've stayed in ever. The design, layers and comforts were amazing! Loved the connection to Magnolia (the reason for our visit) and the thought....all of the extra touches, to make the guests' stay perfect. All of our needs, and then some needs we didn't even think of, were covered. One of the things we appreciated most was how delicious the house smelled!

We’ll be back

3 couples and 2 kids stayed here while watching a volleyball tournament. SUCH A BLAST! Having stayed at many VRBOs, this host thought of everything. Plenty of towels, clean sheets, extremely comfortable mattresses, high-quality bath products, cool game table device, sparkling pool and everything was spotless. Add to that that we could walk to numerous restaurants and the Magnolia Silos and coffee, shops, etc. I will be definitely staying here again.

Girls weekend

We had the best time! Everything was provided. We spent a day walking through the silos and Magnolia market all within walking distance. Then we spent a day in the backyard, enjoying the pool, fire pit, and s’mores! Lots of amenities in this precious home. Cozy mattresses and everything you would need for your stay. The host was extremely helpful too. We will be back.
