We have stayed here multiple times and each time it’s absolutely perfect. The home is spacious, always clean, the owners are beyond kind and very responsive. Looking forward to the next stay and hopefully some cooler weather to enjoy the fire pit.
We had an awesome stay at the Sterling House. The house is very nice. Super clean, comfortable, beautifully designed, and brand new. The hosts are very responsive and communicated well with us. The location is within a block of magnolia market so it was perfect for us to walk to and from the area for shopping, coffee, and food. Would definitely stay here again if we’re ever in the Waco area again!
We were a group of 4 sisters from Ontario, Canada coming to Waco to do all things Magnolia Market and Chip and Jo! The Sterling House was so very convenient to the market. It was the loveliest home away from home - the Sterling House is so cozy with touches of pink, comfortable bedding and there were so many thoughtful amenities (makeup remover pads, hair straightener/curler, lovely soaps, shampoos, well stocked dishes, towels, etc). We felt safe, comfortable and loved how attentive our hosts were prior to arrival and while we were there. If we’re ever back to Waco, this will be our first choice to stay. 💕
We were so excited to stay at this home based on the photos online. Then when we arrived, we were totally blown away. The little details were everywhere you looked. Chargers by the beds (means we didn't leave one behind), quality toiletry items, the bedding, candles, the fresh baked cookie treat. We LOVE this home and could not have picked a better place for parents' weekend with our bear. I wish we had booked longer to enjoy the home more and the cute fire pit out back. Will return for sure!
Our family of 6 stayed in this amazing property while we visited Baylor. Close to the Silos. Our friends rented the property next to us, which is ran by the same family. Both locations were amazing.
This property is fabulous! They thought of everything you would need or want! Even phone chargers on both sides of the bed!! Even a Tesla charger for the car! The manager called just as I was checking in to make sure I got in ok!! Definitely a 5 Star property!
What a beautiful and comfortable home away from home!!! So close to all the Magnolia fun and easy access to food and adventures. I will recommend this home to everyone!
The house was stocked, clean and cozy. Everything we needed and more was available! Beautiful, clean home with a fabulous location. This would absolutely be a “return to stay” if/when we come play again at the silos. Couldn’t have found a better place!! What a fun property to call home for a couple days. Worked really well for our couples trip!
We have truly enjoyed our stay. Your home is beautifully decorated and you have thought of everything. We enjoyed the memory foam beds, and sensitive skin toiletry items. The kitchen was fully stocked for morning brew and mealtime. The home is immaculate and simply a gem.
Highly recommended!" TV set up was great. Easy access to property. Near everything.
As always, we LOVED our stay at The Sterling House. Brynn and Ashton are hands down the best VRBO hosts we have ever encountered (and we have stayed in many VRBO properties). The house is amazing. It’s gorgeous, but also so comfortable. They went above and beyond with every detail, down to splurging for very comfortable mattresses and pillows. I also love that I can travel more lightly when I come here, because Brynn has even thought to provide a hair dryer, but also a flat iron AND a curling iron! She asking provides quality hair products… a detail I appreciate.
Sterling House and it’s sister home, The Story House (which we have also stayed in) are the best rental properties in Waco. Whether you’re coming to visit a Baylor Bear or to hang at the silos, the location is perfect!
10/10. Highly recommend. Only… also hoping not too many people find out about our gem, because we never want to stay anywhere else!
There is so much I could say about this Property and Family. ALL amazingly GOOD! From start to finish everything was perfect! The Sterling House did not disappoint LOCATION was spot on walked everywhere. The Decor,The fire pit area,The hospitality hands down the Best I’ve experienced thus Far. Thank you Ashton and Brynn! 5 *****

Adorable and so chic!
Adorable home! Blush and more blush!!! We loved it all so very much! No detail was missed! Clean, comfortable, great location!
This house is stunningly clean. The location is very convenient and we were able to walk everywhere downtown The toiletries are great and plentiful. They even have a curling iron, flat iron, and dry shampoo!!! The Tesla charger was a bonus!
The Sterling House was so beautiful and comfortable. It surpassed our expectations.
The owners reno and decor give Joanna Gaines a run for her money! We loved how close it was to the Silos, just a short walk. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, and then some. The owners even left us a welcome treat. I highly recommend staying at the Sterling House for the full Magnolia experience!
Beautiful and charming rental in the heart of Waco. Perfect for a small group. Wonderful design.
