About this property

“Pecan Grove” Container Tiny Home Country Setting 12 min to Baylor/Magnolia

Summary:
The Mainsail is a tiny container home handcrafted by CargoHome™ right here in Waco. With 1 bedroom and an inflatable floor mattress in the living area, it sleeps up to 4 people. Features a super comfy Hilton queen mattress. The rooftop deck lights up beautifully at night and is a great place to stargaze or enjoy a morning coffee. Full size, custom-tiled shower and spacious bathroom completes this beautiful home. Just a short 12 minutes to Magnolia and Baylor.

The Space:
This unique home started as a 40' shipping container. Our build company, CargoHome, insulates and panels the interior in pine shiplap and trim it out in 100+ year-old barn wood. The outside is clad with cedar siding, spaced to allow the original container to still be seen. The fun rooftop deck is surrounded by a custom cable railing system and lit with LED lights that gives the deck a beautiful glow at night. LED lights inside and a super-quiet, efficient mini-split AC unit makes this a comfortable, energy efficient space.

The Neighborhood:
Great, safe neighborhood in the country just north of Waco. 5 minutes off I-35 and 3 minutes from Cafe Homestead and Homestead Craft Village. Only 8 minutes from the Waco airport.

Getting Around:
You can park right at the house and Uber is available.

Interaction with Guests:
We live right around the corner so are available for anything you need.

Great Hosts
We asked if we could get an air mattress and they brought us a brand new one within 20 minutes. Very quick to respond to any questions we had. Wife and kids really enjoyed playing pickle ball instead of staring at screens.

Cozy tiny house!
My husband and I enjoyed our stay. Cozy little place! Very clean. Loved seeing the horses in the field across from the property. They have a little market in the neighborhood with homemade icecream. Reminded me of Little House on the Prairie days! It was amazing!

Great for a quick weekend getaway!
My husband and I spent a night at one of the units they had and it was such a cool experience. It was our first time staying in a container home and the accommodation was fabulous. Everything was clean and they provided a lot of travel size stuff for the bathrooms. It had everything we needed for a quick weekend getaway. One minor con that we had was that there were 4-5 flies in the container and it was quite the hassle to get rid of them. Other than that, we would definitely come back again!

Home away from home
Staying here feels like a slice of heaven. Very quite and peaceful while feel completely comfy and at home. Enjoy a cup of coffee while sitting on the rooftop and relaxing. We’re beyond happy with our stay and hope to visit again

Country View!
It was such a beautiful place to wake up to and sit on the roof and drink a cup of coffee! Even on a cold morning it warms the heart! Horses in the fields and lots of birds and other wildlife! 🤩🤠

Container home
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the container home. It is right across the field from the Heritage Homestead which was incredible. It was a lovely get away.

Tiny home but big comfort
This home was a cozy experience and didn’t lack anything. Clean and nicely decorated. The owners were very responsive and communicated every detail. I was flustered driving in rain and kept going around trying to locate which house and I couldn’t locate email with info on house number and decided to send a text asking and they responded in seconds with house number just as I pulled up to the home...perfect timing!

Comfortable and cute
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay in this tiny home. It was beautifully decorated, extremely comfortable, and had all the supplies I needed for my brief stay. The location of the home was close to Magnolia Market. The host was in touch throughout the process and made checking in and out a breeze. I will definitely stay here again.
