Just the Right Place for a Family Getaway

No rental house is perfect, but this one was perfect for us! Sarah communicated well before and during. She wanted things to be perfect for the stay and was willing to address any questions or concerns that came up. SO appreciated her attentiveness!The kitchen was amply supplied. Appreciated minimum stocking of paper products that don't come in some properties. The back porch lights, seating and yard were so charming and cozy. The remote for the back gate was so convenient and thoughtful.Highly recommend the house and management for your Waco stay!

Perfect House for Wedding Weekend

The Mint Cottage was a perfect option for us. The house was cute and clean with a bathroom for each bedroom and very large closets. Beds were super comfortable. It was very well stocked and exactly as described. We really appreciated the fenced in parking in the back -- very convenient to load/unload. The location was very convenient to everything, but you should be aware that it is an urban setting. Even so, we felt very safe and had no problems. We would definitely stay here again without hesitation.

This was the perfect size and location for our stay. Close to Baylor and downtown Waco. The home had plenty of space and ensuite bathrooms. The kitchen was large enough to cook several meals there. We were very happy with this location. Gated parking in the back is also a plus.

Cozy mint Cottage was a great home & well appointed in decor & amenities. We couldn’t have asked for more😊 Very clean and great location. We enjoyed coffee on the patio in the mornings & great conversation set-up in the living areas. All of us slept wonderful each night on comfy beds.

Quick Waco Stay

We enjoyed this spacious house in prime location to our event we attended in Waco. All of the well-sized bedrooms have their own full bathroom. Their is ample space in the living room, dining room and kitchen. The kitchen has everything needed to cook and serve, just bring your food and drinks! The large outdoor area in the back has seating, a deck and plenty of play space! We loved the gated back parking area. The hosts are very availabile and respond quickly. Thank you for an amazing stay!
