Overview
Waco's Only Luxury Vacation Rental-- Finally a Better Way to Visit Waco!
Perched under a long row of towering Live Oak trees, these completely remodeled modern luxury units have a number of amenities you won't find anywhere else. A few Highlights include:
Brand new top of the line Electrolux Stainless Steel Appliances -- Gas Range, French door fridge w/icemaker, Dishwasher and High Efficiency Washer/Dryer
Each tastefully furnished/decorated unit has 2 bedrooms each with queen-sized beds and spacious French door closets. In addition, there is a sleeper sofa in the living room that pulls out into a comfortable full size bed (extra linens included). Outside of each unit there is a quaint granite gravel patio flanked by expansive shade trees with a table and chairs to relax and socialize.
Our modern luxury condos are perfect for all University events such Baylor football, homecoming, wedding parties, parents weekend, commencement, etc. Or just for anyone looking for a high-end experience at a budget price.
We distinguish ourselves from most “Vacation Rental" properties as we strive to provide more of a “Boutique Hotel" experience than that of a traditional “Vacation Rental". With an onsite manager available 24/7 we are able to provide guest with anything they desire to make their stay more comfortable - you can be assured your every need will be met. We provide an excellent alternative to expensive and crowded hotels. Have your own private suite and enjoy close proximity everything Waco has to offer!
Situated in a prime location across the street from the local university, and shaded by towering Texas live oak trees, this freshly completed, TOTALLY remodeled 6-unit condo features amenities that will make your stay in Waco a delight. These former student apartments have been converted for overnight stays, and have all the comforts of your own home.
With granite countertops throughout, a fully equipped, professional grade kitchen with commercial appliances and gas range, front loading high efficiency washer/dryers, solid wood floors, travertine tile, luxurious high-end beds with 1,000 thread count sheets and handcrafted metal work, you’ll enjoy your stay, be it for business or pleasure.
Tasteful decor accentuates 2 cozy bedrooms and 2 full baths in each unit.
The property also features brand new 50-inch LED TVs with high-speed wireless internet + cable. Each unit can sleep up to 4-5 adults comfortably. A stone’s throw from Baylor Campus and only minutes from Downtown Waco, the property is perfect place to lay your head for all Baylor Events including Sports, Special Weekends (Parents Weekend, Homecoming, Commencement) etc. or any events in the Downtown Waco area.
About Jack Thomas Herrin
Born in Waco, raised/ educated in Austin, my family has been in and around the Waco area for generations. I currently "reside" in Colorado but more or less spit my time between the 3. I have a deep passion for everything outdoors, live music and, of course, Baylor University Athletics.
Jack Thomas Herrin purchased this condo in 1970
Why Jack Thomas Herrin chose Prairies & Lakes
Family Owned and operated since construction was completed in the 70's by my Grandfather, Jack Thomas, who was a student athlete and later coached football for the Baylor Bears. Having served and supported the University and the local community for well over 30 years, he had a deep passion for the University and its sense of community.
Once student housing, we have recently remodeled completely and now aim to service the Baylor Community and the Greater Waco area in their accommodation needs while maintaining the sense of community that is our heritage.
Although he is no longer with us it is with great pleasure that we are able to continue serving the Baylor/ Waco community for which I know he'd be proud. we hope to carry on Jack Thomas' s legacy of hospitality and generosity for many years to come.

Wonderful!

Great place
The condo was very clean and well appointed. Check in and check out were super easy. Great location for a visit to Baylor or the Magnolia Silos.
Waco/Magnolia Market Girls Weekend
Great location, great condo! Seriously, this is a great VRBO. Super clean, modern, everything you need is here (and I mean everything - there was even a full spice rack in the kitchen!). Beds were super comfortable and even though most of the units were occupied while we were there, it was quiet. Beds were very comfortable as was the condo furniture. The location is absolutely perfect: easy drive to restaurants, Magnolia, other touristy things and right across the street from Baylor campus, which is beautiful. Recommendations on where to eat and what to do is provided in the condo, which was great. We had some great local food and visited a couple neighborhood bars. Another visit to Waco is in the works and we will be staying here. We highly recommend this VRBO!
The place was very nice and clean with everything we needed.
Centrally located, close to Magnolia Silos and Baylor. Glad we had the VRBO option in this area to choose from; loved the whole experience.
Very clean and modern
Didn't realize it is on Baylor Campus. Easy access to highways, shopping, restaurants, and Cameron Park trails. Truly relaxing.
It was great location and nicely decorated
The property was conveniently located across from the beautiful Baylor campus. We enjoyed the ease of being able to find it and it's closeness to everything we were interested in visiting while in Waco, Texas. The new appliances were a huge plus, but would have enjoyed a few more utensils in the kitchen (spatulas, tongs, strainer, etc), upstairs (laundry baskets). We were able to figure it out and would definitely come back!!
Happy place
We had to come to Waco for my mother-in-law's memorial service so it wasn't a happy time for us. The condo was a retreat and break for all of us to relax in. Jack was very prompt in responding on the reservation request and Ashley was always available to answer questions. The place was conveniently located, clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again!! Thanks again for such a cozy place to regroup at. We enjoyed our time here and in Waco. We got to enjoy the the sights on the day we were leaving. Thanks Ashley for encouraging us to go to Torchy's Tacos and the bakery at The Silos at Magnolia Market. Both would be MUST SEE'S on a trip back to Waco.
Map
