About this property

Cozy Private Getaway near Silos & Downtown

This is the perfect private retreat for a couple, small family or a small group up to 4. Previous guests say “super cute”, “VERY clean”, “close to everything,” “thoughtfully put together", "absolutely loved the stay".
There is one King bed in the main bedroom. The second sleeping area is just big enough for bunk beds.
The entire above garage unit sleeps a total of 4, but keep in mind the upper bunk bed has a weight limit of 160, so if 4 adults are on the reservation, keep this in mind. If you can’t meet this weight limit, as an alternative there is a bed height inflatable mattress available.
Enter through a gate next to the driveway marked "Pine Cone Place.” Walk down the path and find a pink door. This is your private entrance to your 2 bedroom above garage unit. 16 steps up and you'll be in an open concept living/kitchen/dining, creatively designed for fun, convenience & relaxation. You'll be able to enjoy books & games, watch some TV, play some music on the bluetooth speaker in the bathroom, or just relax and enjoy some quiet time. The kitchen is stocked with dishes/pans, etc. along with basic spices. Full size refrigerator, dishwasher, cooktop and convection microwave are available for use (no oven). When you're ready for sleep, just a few steps down the hall is your bedroom with a king bed and separate bathroom. There is also a small bunk room just big enough for 2 twin beds and a desk. Want to enjoy the outside? You have full access to your own fenced off yard with a patio, seating, gas grill and a fire pit. The house is very close to downtown and only steps from Cameron Park Zoo.
Your privacy is important to us as well as your security. For this reason, ring security features are located outside only. STR license STR000733-08-2023

Waco visit

The property was perfect for a girls weekend. The hosts were very communicative and even left us umbrellas for the rain. The place was spotless and very well maintained. Location was 5 minutes from everything. We enjoyed Magnolia, Cameron Park and the River Walk - all within 5 minutes.

About the host

Hosted by Toni Ragsdale

Host profile image

We built this space to share with others and named it Pine Cone Place because pine cones hold a special meaning for us. We used them at our wedding, and they have become a symbol of our love and the memories we’ve shared.

We hope you enjoy your stay here, make wonderful memories of your own, and love Pine Cone Place as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We are proud Baylor graduates and have always loved Waco. We wanted to create a place that would put you close to everything we love about this city—downtown, Baylor, the beautiful parks, the zoo, and so many of our favorite places and activities.

We hope you enjoy being close to all that Waco has to offer and make some wonderful memories of your own while staying at Pine Cone Place.

What makes this property unique

Our above-garage apartment is completely private from the main house, giving you your own peaceful little oasis. Enjoy the privacy and comfort of your own space while still being close to everything Waco has to offer.
