Long weekend stay for a girls’ trip and the Gloria Cottage was perfect! Tastefully decorated and the hidden space behind the bookshelf was beautiful. Bonus, it’s within walking distance to Magnolia Market. We will definitely be back to the Gloria Inn and cottage.

Wonderful location and wonderful home! There are no tvs in the bedrooms (there is only 1 tv in the whole house) which was a little odd so I hope the hosts consider adding tvs in the bedrooms.Other than that this was a great trip!

Adorable Fixer Upper style property

This house is perfect for your Magnolia/Silo trip. It is beautifully decorated and well maintained. There is great space for everything you need. The host has great communication and is very responsive. It is a short walk to the Magnolia property as well.

Beautiful and comfortable

The house is so nice. They have done an amazing job with the care of every detail. We even extended our stay since our house wasn’t ready yet, and the owners couldn’t be more easy to work with. Even the cleaning crew stopped by to see if we needed anything. Just wonderful! Thank you so very much!

Emerald green room and comfy beds

The beds were like clouds!! So comfortable to sink into after a long day! The area is quiet and you can really feel relaxed while you’re here, enjoying the outside or the green living room or the back sitting room or either of the two porches! We loved our week here and really appreciate the owners being flexible with us extending our stay. Thanks again!

Cozy Cottage

Cottage was tastefully decorated and walking distance to downtown Waco. The hidden bookcase door was really neat as were the outdoor seating areas. The beds are sleep number beds, so super comfy. It had most provisions including bodywash, shampoo, and laundry detergent. It did not have conditioner. It is close enough to an outdoor music venue that we could just hear the music late into the night. There were white noise machines to help with this. We were able to sleep fine, but others might be more sensitive to this. Overall great, well appointed stay close to everything.
