Summary: One block from the Silos and next to the famous "Shotgun House", this cute 3 bed/2 bath bungalow is the perfect spot for you and your family to explore the Magnolia market and downtown Waco. Fully restored, you'll feel like your staying in one of Joanna's "fixer uppers". With a full kitchen, washer and dryer, one King bed and 2 Queen beds, this can be your "home away from home" in the Heart of Waco.
The Space: Sleeps 6 people! Each of the 3 bedrooms has a super-comfy queen size bed and the master suite has an attached full bathroom. The other 2 bedrooms share a bathroom. The kitchen is fully equipped with stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator and dishwasher along with pots, cooking utensils and dishes for cooking up gourmet meals while you're in town.

The house was a block away from the Silos! It was fun being in the area of houses that had been remodeled on the show. The house had all the amenities you could need in a stay!
Beautiful place to stay! We felt very much at home here and loved walking this lovely community. Amenities were just what we needed and host was wonderfully accommodating and responsive.
We came to see the silos and you can literally walk out the front door and see them . It was excellent and we already suggested it to friends. The neighborhood is nice and the house has everything we needed and then some! A shot walk to the Silos and Spice Village. We'll be back
Compared to other VRBO‘s, we have stayed in the kitchen was lacking in a number of things, no whisk, blender, Knife, sharpener, scissors, food, storage containers, a 9 x 13 casserole dish, kitchen tongs, and there were only two wine glasses. A small step stool is needed as the cabinets are quite high and we had a real issue getting clothes out of the bottom of the washing machine. Location was great even though we did not do any shopping. Cute house!
The house was nice. king bed, and sofa were pretty broke down and could dtand to be replaced. The sink in the bedroom bathroom faucets ate backwards which could be safety hazard with the kids. But overall loved it.
Property was just as described. Clean and well stocked. Close walking distance to the Silos and many other places of interest and restaurants. Communication with owner was great. Would definitely recommend.
