Perfect stay for a girl’s trip!

Stayed here with my mom and sister-in-law for a girl’s trip. Very cute cottage about two blocks from the Silos (5 minute walk). Easy check in process, easy communication with the host, toiletries provided, etc. Very cute and chill back patio, and you can hear concerts from a nearby venue as you sit outside and relax after a fun filled day.

Cute spot

Overall wonderful property. Only issue is it sits on a very busy road with loud traffic all night. Cars blaring music were driving by all night. That said, it’s close to down town and accommodations were great. Just bring ear plugs for night time.

Great place!

I came to visit Waco with my daughter and 2 grandkids ages 2&3. We had a wonderful stay at Clay Cottage. The beds were comfy, the living room was cozy and comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. The host was very responsive and offered many wonderful suggestions for things to do and places to eat in the area. The location was perfect, it was a quick walk to the Silos and we felt very safe. Check-in and out was a breeze. I highly recommend staying at Clay Cottage!

Delightful little house

We enjoyed ourselves in this wonderfully equipped house. The decor is lovely, the furniture is very comfortable, and the ac works really well. The proximity to the Silos at Magnolia is awesome, and we enjoyed walking to restaurants, as well as cooking at home. Clay Avenue is busier than I thought it would be, but the house itself makes up for that.😊. Would highly recommend.

Cute Cottage

Cottage was very cute and clean. Bathroom was tiny and difficult to maneuver if you are more than 5'5" tall or over 185 lbs. Neighborhood is transitioning so be aware not all homes are updated and some transients may be around. We had no issues but just be mindful of surroundings. Abundant exterior lighting so light filtering window treatments would be helpful. Very close to Silos and downtown Waco. This was a great place to stay for our visit. Owners were very responsive and gave helpful guidance to local eateries and activities. We would stay here again.

Felt at home

We so love staying at the little cottage. The moment we walked in we felt so welcomed. The decor is amazing, and we were within walking distance of Magnolia Silos, magnolia press(fabulous coffee). The owner was in contact with us through out put stay. He even left lots of information of amazing things to do and see in Waco. Highly recommended this cute cottage for your home away from home.

Just the right size

This cute cottage is located very close to the Silo area. If it had not been so hot, (95-100 degrees) we could have walked to it. The cottage itself was clean and decorated very tastefully with lots of extras for guest: charging devices at each bedside, hair dryers, shampoo, conditioner, & bottled water to name a few. Although this home is located on a busy street, we were not bothered with noise that kept us from sleeping. There are several homes being renovated in this area, but again, no noise that bothered us. There is one bathroom, which is small, but the owners have taken advantage of every space to make it very functional. We had one issue the first morning we were there, but the owner, David, responded within 15 minutes and took care of the need. I’m happy we chose this rental as it was close to everything we wanted to do.

Great Place for Girls Trip

We spent time at Clay Cottage while visiting Waco for a girls trip. Its location to all we did could not have been better, but just know this house is on a busy street corner. We enjoyed walking to Magnolia Press for coffee each morning and our short drives to all we did. David was highly and effectively communicative and even left the porch light on for us for a 1:00am arrival. We enjoyed hanging out in the cozy living room together and laughing over our daily adventures. We would definitely stay here again!
