The Shotgun House was exactly how we pictured it! Having watched the "Fixer Upper" remodeling show several times, we were anxious to see if it was completed and decorated how it was shown on TV . . . and it was!Alex was a great communicator sending us all the needed entry codes before our arrival plus providing us with a very detailed guest guide. The guide gave us many recommendations of where to dine and what attractions to see.We will definitely stay again when visiting Waco!
