Nice home away from home

This place is very homey. You can tell Lori puts love and thought into the decorations, furniture and the extras inside and out. She has thought through many little things that you want/need when staying away. I came with my daughter and almost 3 year old grandson. He loved our "Texas house" and wants to go back. I'm from New Hampshire, so not sure if I'll be back. but if I do, I would definitely stay here! Thank you Lori!

Baylor 50th Reunion

Three lifelong friends who met at Baylor when freshmen in 1970 came together for our 50th reunion. The Haven provided us a very comfortable place to gather to celebrate and reminisce. The location in the Woodway area was convenient to many major roads in & out of Waco. Plenty of restaurants were nearby to make it easy to plan dinners. The neighborhood was quiet and the house simply & pleasantly appointed. The perfect spot for our reunion group!

Lori’s a very generous hostess. Her Haven home is very comfortable and decorated adorably. She stocked the kitchen with waters, snacks and breakfast. She was easy to reach before and after our stay. I would highly recommend staying here and we would return for sure.

Super comfort

We came to Waco to watch our son compete in the iron man. We visited Magnolia market and saw some of downtown Waco. Would have enjoyed more time here as it is a very cute location. The neighborhood was quiet and my son and I biked around it. The house had everything plus. We felt very comfortable and enjoyed all the extras provided. I would definitely stay here again.

Charming House

Lori was such a wonderful communicator. She made check-in and check-out a breeze! The house was decorated like a charming cottage. There was a fresh peach cobbler and ice cream as well as some other treats. Overall this is a wonderful place to stay in Waco! Not far of a drive to the silos and other attractions! If we visit Waco again this is where we will be staying!

5 Stars all the way!!!

Wow! I read the reviews and decided to book this home for our 2 night stay in Waco and am I glad I did. First I had to ask Lori to change my arrival date because I was over zealous in how quickly we would arrive from New Mexico and she was able to do that. Then we arrived and could not open the key lock box so she immediately showed up to help- only to find we were at the wrong house (thankfully it was also one of her homes next door). She was so sweet and I felt like we could become instant friends. Entered the home to a homemade peach cobbler and ice cream. I have stayed at many vacation rentals and never have I been welcomed like that. (We took the remainder of the cobbler and ice cream on our travels and my husband could not stop raving about it). Now about the home.., sooooo cute. Well decorated. And very comfortable. All the amenities of home. Sometimes vacation homes barely have enough paper goods to get you through your visit- this isn’t one of those homes. She provided laundry soap and shampoo/conditioner, hand soap.. all of the things you might need. When we return to Waco, we will most definitely try to book one of her homes. Oh yeah- the neighborhood was so clean and peaceful. There are no sidewalks but the streets were quiet so we were able to walk with our little dog every day. 5 star stay!!!
