Things to Note: Home is located in a quiet family neighborhood with lots of street parking. Like most of Waco, this neighborhood is a mixture of old and new homes. There are quite a few older homes, some rundown, some needing some TLC, but it is fun to drive around and see all the potential "Fixer Uppers" that Chip and Joanna might hit up next.

Centrally located just 0.3 miles to Little Shop on Bosque, 3.5 miles to Magnolia Market/Silos, 4 miles to Magnolia Table, close to Brazos River Walk, Top Golf, Main Event, Cinemax, Waco Surf, and so much more.

*There is a video Ring on the front porch for the safety of our guests.

Bestie Trip!

Property was exactly how its listed. Beautiful and well maintained home. Neighborhood is located close to everything and neighbors were nice and we felt safe. Karen (the owner) was easy to reach and would answer any questions immediately. Every detail was well thought of and very accommodating. Close to all attractions with a short drive. We came for a bestie trip to the Magnolia Market at the Silos and stay 4 nights and we will definitely come back to do again. Had the best time!

Awesome Stay

The Fried Green Tomato is the perfect place for a visit to Waco. The home has been nicely renovated and is well- appointed, and it is centrally located to all things that attract you to Waco. We found the property to be pet-friendly, and Karen, our host, is very kind and accomodating. Not sure when we'll make it back to Waco, but we know where we'll be staying.

a comfortable stay

This is a quaint little property that served its purpose. We needed a bed for the night for the Cross Country state meet. It provided just that. We had three adults in the home (parents and an adult child) and it was manageable. (With one bathroom, I really am not sure how a party of 5+ could make it work.) The only down tick, minor though, is it is simply an older neighborhood. We did not feel unsafe at all though. I would consider again next year, but he was a senior so no more state.
