My family & I had a great time. We loved the comfort of the home. Everything we needed to have a family BBQ and fun game nights was at our reach. The beds were spectacular, we all slept in our own rooms and all of us slept like babies!!!
The home was perfect for our stay. We have stayed at many homes in Waco and this was the best. Everything we needed and the host was easily accessible. Absolutely will stay here again.
Very well kept property that looked exactly as pictured. It was furnished beautifully and the host thought of everything we would need, from snacks to motion sensored lighting. I would definitely stay again.

Thanks Alison for staying with us at McKenzie Corner and for this lovely review. So glad you enjoyed your stay. You are certainly welcome back anytime.
Stayed in Waco for a long weekend of shopping and Baylor Baseball. This house was conveniently located and had everything we needed. Loved loved the decor - so much wallpaper!! Unique design with lots of extras. We would definitely stay here again.
Very impressed with the property! Super clean and plenty of space! Host thought of all the things to make us comfortable! Would def stay here again when visiting Waco!!!
Our stay at McKenzie Corner was perfect. The house is exactly as you see it online, super clean and super comfortable. There is no dining table so if you have a few people you will have to eat sitting on the couches or chairs but that would not deter me from staying here again. The neighborhood is quiet and close to Baylor. We ALL loved this house and enjoyed our stay here!
The location to the Fair grounds was a short drive & the house was perfect. The host had provided the most thoughtful needs of anything you might need. We were impressed!
Loved everything about McKenzie Corner.
Slept so peacefully every night. If ever back in Waco I will definitely look into renting this home again.

This home is beautiful, clean, and welcoming. When I had a question, the host provided quick information. The home is well equipped; we enjoyed the fire pit in the evenings and it was so nice to have coffee supplied. I usually have to purchase some on the first day. If I am back in the area, I will definitely check this properties availability first!
We enjoyed our stay at this comfortable, well maintained and so cute! property. There was an A/C hiccup that management jumped right on despite it being a Saturday. They were prepared to offer 2 alternative properties but no need. The issue was solved and the house was soon nice and cool. We had everything we needed. Will definitely return.
What a well thought out and amazingly decorated property! We have stayed at countless VRBO’s and this hands down was the cleanest and most comfortable place we have stayed. The beds were fabulous. Communication prior to stay was thorough and detailed! The small and big details are beyond noticeable throughout the entire place.
It was a little farther than we normally like to be from campus but was still accessible. Like most rentals in Waco this beautiful property was in a neighborhood like most with some redos and fixer uppers. We would definitely choose to stay at this property again. The backyard set up was adorable and had weather been a little cooler would have been the perfect spot to have coffee or hang out as a family. Thanks for sharing this beautiful home with our family! We had a great weekend!
