Honey Farms turned out to be the perfect hidden gem ! The home is so comfortable and you feel welcomed. We enjoyed the relaxing time and especially loved the outdoor space.
This maybe one of the best VRBO homes our family has stayed in. It’s really a peaceful experience with plenty of activities for the family. My wife and I enjoyed the sunrise in the water. I’d highly recommend this home if visiting Waco.

Thank you so much for the kind words! We really pour our hearts into Honey Farms. Looking forward to having you again! -Andrew
The property offered many amenities such as games both indoor and outdoor, a nice pool and clean and well appointed rooms. We would definitely go back!
If you want to be right outside of town and relax this is your place. It was fun to spend an evening in town, but great to have a day and evening to hang by the pool and hot tub. The house was beautiful and we loved all the bedrooms and bathrooms. Highly recommend!
Beautiful home and pool. Very comfortable, it had everything we needed for our annual friends of almost 40 years trip. Lots of things to do in nearby Waco. We especially enjoyed sitting on the patio in the morning drinking coffee and watching the sun come up.

We are so happy that you enjoyed Honey Farms. I think the patio is my favorite part, too! We sincerely appreciate the opportunity to host your family and we look forward to having you back. Until next time! -Andrew
We loved our stay at Honey Farms. Jennifer was amazing and was very helpful with everything we needed. The home is beautiful and very inviting. The pool is amazing. We can not wait to book another visit for our Administrative Retreat in the future. Thank you for an amazing stay
Our stay at Honey Farms was absolutely perfect! Every detail, from the clear communication to the beautiful, spotless accommodations and well-thought-out amenities, made for a wonderful experience. Honey Farms has anticipated every convenience a guest could need. I wouldn’t change a thing! The tranquil atmosphere, especially while unwinding by the pool, was incredibly relaxing, and the close proximity to Waco and amazing dining options was the perfect bonus.
We absolutely loved this place. The pool and hot tub were perfect but the view of the pond Texas countryside sets this place apart. The beds were super comfortable. Our whole family loved the stay and feel super refreshed after a few days at Honey Farms. The kitchen was well appointed and the ability to cook on the Big Green Egg or the gas grill was a huge plus. We loved that we could be only 25 minutes from a Waco activity if we wanted it just enjoy the outdoors. Lots of bass were caught just from the shore so the pond (more like a small lake) definitely has a ton of fish. The hosts were so welcoming and the communication was perfect. We definitely would stay here again if we are in the area!
This was my first VRBO stay and the crew that manage the property were exemplary in communication and providing a well-appointed home away from home. Thank you! Our oldest daughter is studying nursing and needed a quiet place with solid internet to dig in to her materials over her break. Our second daughter joined us to work-from-home and spend downtime with us. It’s been a long time since we had a mother/ daughters’ trip and there were laughs galore. We enjoyed the hot tub on one of the evenings, and though the weather was quite windy, the home had space to spread out and indoor activities to do if we had chosen to. In a little downtime, we visited the Magnolia complex and two of us checked out a massive antique mall. Checkout was easy and we would consider revisiting and making use of a few more amenities next time.
We chose Honey Farms to celebrate the April 2024 total eclipse and gather some of our family around us.
Honey Farms is amazing!
With two master suites and two second bedrooms, the home is plenty big enough for big families. The house is filled with light and love. Thoughtful finishing touches abound, and with plenty of room around it, the home is quiet at night, and the skies are filled with stars. The pond yielded fish for all of us who gave it a try, and the pool and hot tub were perfect for refreshing during the warm afternoons. There was perfect Texas BBQ perfection within a 15 minute drive, and everything else we needed for care for one another was also close by.
AND, we saw the total solar eclipse perfectly!
We loved this spot and would recommend it highly to anyone looking to stay in the Waco, Honey Springs, and Fort Worth areas.
We will be returning.
Our deep thanks to the entire team of wonderful people at Honey Farms.

It was such a gift to have your family stay at Honey Farms. We are thrilled it was a space where you could connect with one another and enjoy the amazing eclipse. You took such good care of our home. We welcome you back anytime!
Great house, gorgeous scenery, had everything you needed for cooking, kitchen/ refrigerator was little small for the amount of people house accommodated.. but we found beds comfy. Bathroom nice… pool was amazing… overall I’d recommend this as a place to stay
We had a great time at Honey Farms. The location is private and close enough to Waco to enjoy all the city has to offer, while offering quiet, space, and beautiful views at the same time. The spa was great while stargazing at night, and even though the pond was low on water we were still able to fish and enjoy it. Very easy and prompt communication with owners.
Only 22 minutes from the heart of Waco, you can dive into your own private outdoor pool paradise! Kick back, soak up the sun, and enjoy the peace—all while staying just a splash away from Waco's best spots!
