About the host
Hosted by Hannah Mack
Hi there! We’re Noah & Anja Zimmer and Cooper & Hannah Mack — two couples who met in a Bible study here in Waco and quickly became close friends. We discovered a shared passion for real estate, design, and hospitality, and soon this crazy dream of creating restful getaways turned into a reality.
Our mission is to provide a peaceful space where you can rest, reconnect, and make lasting memories. We know life can be full and busy, and our prayer is that your time here feels like a true retreat — a place to breathe, laugh, and connect with your loved ones.
We pray that you would feel cared for, renewed, and feel at peace while you’re here. Thank you for being part of our story. We’re truly honored to host you.

Why they chose this property
We love the quietness of being just outside the main Waco area, while still having quick access to everything the city has to offer. This home truly feels like the perfect quiet retreat — close enough to enjoy Waco with an easy drive, yet tucked away so you can unwind and recharge in a safe neighborhood.
What makes this property unique
Whether you're traveling with friends, family, or as a couple, we want your stay to feel memorable and fun. From thoughtful touches throughout the home to plenty of ideas for things to do around Waco, our goal is to help make your trip as special and stress-free as possible.
