CarmenRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Highly suggest, house accommodated my family of 10. We went to celebrate my daughter’s graduation and the travel from the home to Baylor was a decent distance just like Trevor mentioned. Home was comfortable and it felt homey. Main thing we liked is bed linens were fresh and clean, only thing restroom doors did not lock so everyone felt uneasy like someone was going to walk in on them, lol… I also got flashbacks from living at my grandmas house from the train passing by multiple times at night. Pizza junction down the street was very delicious. Overall we will stay again.

We loved our little getaway at the cabin. Ken was quick to respond when I had a question. The property is quiet, peaceful, and very accessible. We spent some time in Waco and it was a short 40 minute drive from the property. Their small herd of mini horses, donkey, and zebra were fun to watch and very friendly. We also enjoyed seeing the local wildlife. Deer, rabbits, squirrels, and plenty of birds in the area to watch over. If we were looking for somewhere to stay in the future, this will be in the list to check for availability.
