What's nearby

  • The Cameron Park Zoo in Waco, Texas is a terrific zoo! The zoo has a great range of animals and exhibits and the grounds are well kept and spacious. There's lots of shade to keep you somewhat cool during those hot Texan summer months if you visit during that time frame. The animal enclosures are nice, and can really give you great views of the animals themselves if you are a bit patient. This also makes for great photo views, as shown here with this photo of an approaching jaguar. Food and snack prices are also very reasonable, as are prices for souvenirs. This zoo makes for a great day out for the family.

Great getaway!

The property was great! Maggie made the process so easy. The place has everything you would need and more. It was close to the silos and Magnolia Table and had a nice park nearby where we could take the dogs. We highly recommend this property! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Cute Waco house in quiet neighborhood

Nice property. A bit old original construction but nicely refurbished & appointed with everything we needed. Nice neighborhood 2 blocks from Brazos River with nice walking path. Will rent again.

Girls trip

I traveled to Waco with two friends that had not been to Magnolia Market. Check in Friday was easy. The house looks just like the pictures, very comfortable for the three of us. Our host texted me several times while we were there to check on us. The location of the house made it easy to go to the Market and restaurants and bars that had been recommended to us. I would definitely book this property again.

Baylor Orientation and Line Camp

We chose this property due to the close proximity to everything. A quick 5 minute drive to Baylor University. It is a quaint property. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch in the evenings. We were close to the Brazos River and the walking trails. We will definitely be staying here again.

Birthday Weekend

This was our first trip to Waco and this property was so close to everything we wanted to do! We had an awesome time! The property was pet friendly which was a big plus for us! Maggie was amazing and checked in on us halfway thru our stay! She made sure to be available for us if we needed anything! Check in and out was a breeze! Thanks again for having us!!!

Lovely historic home

The property is over 100 years old and has a few quirks but they only add to the charm. The remodeling is well done. Bed, living room seating and dining area were all comfortable and above expectation. Fenced yard was great for our dogs. The owner was quick to respond and very accommodating. The only negative was the road noise from loud music/engines of vehicles.

Perfect for girls trip

Cameron Cottage was everything we could have hoped for and more. This host thought of everything, there was even a very well stocked hot chocolate bar. Christmas decorations were adorable and a wonderful added touch. We loved it so much we added an extra day on to our stay.

New Years Eve

We had a quick two night stay over New Years Eve and the property was perfect. Plenty of room for our family of 3 and two puppies. Maggie was great and allowed us to gain early access as we arrived sooner than expected, and checked in with us during our stay. Great location and very close to Magnolia and the Silos.

Couldn’t have been easier to rent this property or check in. Maggie was quick to respond whenever we had questions and even offered insider information on Waco so we could navigate better and not waste a minute.

Clean & Cozy

We’ve been traveling across country for several weeks. This place by far was the cleanest and very comfortable with a magnolia feel. The host was very responsive and went above and beyond to accommodate our family. Will def recommend to our friends & family in the future.
