About this property

The Levi Gin - Luxury Vintage Retreat

This stunning property is truly one of a kind. One of the five originally cotton gins in Levi has been converted to a lovely home. The gin sits on a sprawling 3.77 acres with a tree lined creek on one side. The home is a perfect mix of old and new. From the originally tin to new stone, it truly is a magnificent eye-popping house.

The home is split into two sections. The mother-in-law suite and the main home. The old scale can still be seen in between the two units. The mother-in-law suite is a 1 bed, 1 bath unit with full kitchen and living room. It perfectly matches the main house. The main house is spectacular! The cement floors and granite countertop perfectly match for a stunning downstairs area. The extra-large bar allows for plenty of setting or places to place large amounts of food for family gatherings. The upstairs contains a private reading/game area and three bedrooms. The master bedroom is upstairs and contains a small office, large closet, dual vanities and large shower. The outside covered deck is a great place for morning coffee or evening drinks while viewing this wonderful property.

For large parties or gatherings, please message us about event pricing.

The Levi Gin is a short term rental property. The home and second living quarters and yard are for guest use. The event tent and the Chapel are restricted areas and for events only. Any guest using these areas without written permission from D&L Vacation Rentals or one of its staff will be charged an extra fee to be determined by D&L Vacation Rentals.

Fun and Unique

I love being just outside the city so this was a perfect location. It was still very convenient to everything. The house was clean with lovely touches. It felt like home. A horrible storm came through which took the power out for a little bit, but I even just loved being there in the storm. I can honestly see myself living in the area in the future.

Nice place

The Levi Gin is a very unique and enjoyable property. We enjoyed our stay here. Couple small things, beds are small and not super comfortable. Internet as stated is very unreliable and doesn't work well all the time. Other than that we were very happy with this property

Awesome Property

This property was absolutely awesome. The house was beautifully decorated and well mantained. There was an area upstairs that included games and books for all ages and some children's toys. The garage was a big hit. It included a basketball goal, foosball, air hockey and other outdoor activities. The kitchen was well stocked with small appliances including 2 Keurigs, some spices and coffee supplies. It also included a very nice guest house which we did not need but was available to us. We will would book this property again.

Better than advertised!

Great setup for multi family trips. Lots of games and indoor basketball court for the kids (and adults!). A couple things happened outside of managers control- county construction - but manager was actively working to resolve it and worked with us. We would definitely rent again. It is a great location, about 15 minutes to downtown Waco, but you feel like you are in the middle of nowhere. Very peaceful and relaxing.

Great getaway

The property is out in the country, very peaceful, and you basically get two houses, ,main house 3 BR, guest house 1BR, very well decorated and appointed, great for family reunion etc. We hosted a rehearsal dinner there in the barn, spacious, however not air-conditioned, thankfully it wasn't too hot yet. The barn needs some work, I had to clean it up before it was suitable for the party...but all in all very nice property, Jess was very responsive, very nice to work with

Off the beaten path

Very well-maintained and definitely away from everything - you can actually see the stars. And not your regular house. Although - streetlights driving in the dark might have been helpful but would definitely change the vibe. If you're looking for a peaceful getaway but still within driving range of the city - this is it. Everything worked as stated and booking was a breeze.

What a terrific spot to enjoy Waco & surrounding area. The house was large & comfortable.

This was a perfect place for all the family. Nicely accommodating in kitchen & bedrooms with latest features. The play area was great for kids of all ages. Hosts communicated quickly. It was a perfect weekend for our family of 10😘

Very unique property

A great place for a family get together and something for everyone to do at any age. We stayed on property the entire weekend, however the location is perfect for visits to the Waco area. The history of the property is very interesting as well. All the details were covered. The kitchen/dining room area was very large and open. Perfect for bigger families. We were a little thrown off by the 4th queen bed being a pullout in the guest house unfortunately. Overall we were very pleased with our stay and would definitely stay again in the future.

Perfect for a family reunion

T Levi Gin was beautifully decorated and ideal for our family that ranged in ages from infant to 70. The bunk room actually slept four kids comfortably in their own beds and the guest house worked perfectly for the older folks. The gym/arcade came complete with balls and racquets and the kids had ample space to skate and run.

Spacious & comfortable

This property is close to town for groceries and restaurants and a great stay for large number of people. The large lawn, garage for basketball, arcade, large living room and kitchen made it perfect to spread out, and burn energy off with the kids during our stay. The detached house was perfect for older parents to stay. Comes well supplied with all we needed! Totally recommend and would love to stay there again!
