I just wanted to share some joyful news from our recent family reunion in Waco this year. We chose the cozy Mint House for our 4-day stay, and it truly exceeded our expectations.From the moment we arrived, we were pleasantly surprised by the charming decor, the adorable ambiance, the sparkling cleanliness, and the spacious layout. The house features 3 bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and a spacious closet, making everyone feel comfortable and at home. The beds were incredibly comfy, ensuring restful nights for us all.Personally, I absolutely loved the kitchen! It was fully equipped with every gadget you could need, including two coffee makers, plenty of coffee pods, and creamers – a perfect setup for any coffee lover. It really felt like home away from home.The location was fantastic too, providing easy access to the Silos and other main Waco attractions, which made our sightseeing hassle-free.The only minor suggestion we have for the owner is to check the internet connection, as the signals tended to go on and off occasionally. However, Sarah, who helped us from the very beginning, was incredibly patient and responsive. She replied quickly to all my messages and provided great information, making the whole experience even better.Overall, we are all very happy with the house and would definitely choose to stay here again whenever we visit Waco.Thanks so much for making our family reunion such a memorable and comfortable experience!

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.
