This property was AMAZING! Such a relaxing get away. It is close enough to Waco to still be convenient, but far enough away to make you feel relaxed and like you’re taking a vacation. The house was beautiful and clean, and the host was fabulous. Highly recommend.

The house was easy to access and was quiet during our stay. Able to sit by the fire and enjoy the outdoors. River was easily accessible for fishing but some areas can be steep for little children. Overall, we had a great experience. Host was great with communication.

From chaos to peace and quiet

Loved the stay. Thanks for sharing your place! We have family who live by Waco, so from visiting to shopping and site seeing, we can leave the choas and come back to nature and the river. Watching Gods creation and creatures! We were there for 2 weeks and saw deer everyday we were there.

Great location

The property was in a great location! Close to town, yet in the country. The place was immaculate! The bathrooms felt like you were at a spa. We loved all the natural light from the windows. We were able to sit outside on the deck for all of our meals. I would definitely recommend this place!

We are delighted you enjoyed The Brazos River Bungalow. So much work was put into this home and property. The owners wanted our guest to be as comfortable as possible and truly enjoy their stay. It is gratifying to see our efforts have paid off.

Wonderful!

Our stay was wonderful. This bungalow is a beautiful, first class property, nestled in the woods on the Brazos. Coffee on the porch was lovely, as was the time we spent inside. The bedding, the showers....all 1st class. The owners were also very accommodating. We will definitely return!

Tranquil

Our stay was beautiful, secluded and comfortable. We had fires, played cornhole, watched the river flow by and listened to the myriad of bird songs. We visited the many nearby attractions then came back to our comfortable bungalow to relax. Thank you for the many thoughtful conveniences and luxuries!!

Ironman Race Week

We absolutely loved this home. Near Waco, but out in rural farmland. So quiet and lovely location, overlooking the river. We were in town so I could participate in the Ironman triathlon. Home was close enough to town that we had no trouble getting downtown and back for race events. Very peaceful for post-race rest and recovery. Definitely recommend this property.

Amazing hidden gem!

We came for the eclipse and the Brazos River Bungalow was awesome in every way and made our trip and eclipse experience so much better than we expected. We really appreciated all the lovely touches and features, such as the detailed and easy-to-follow directions, wonderfully comfortable furnishings and lovely decor and lighting, responsive communication, clear signage, relaxing porch and outdoor seating and lighting, good internet, excellent air conditioning, 3 ply toilet paper, bug spray and citronella candles, well stocked basics in the kitchen and bathrooms, jigsaw puzzles, streaming services availability, visitor guides, easy parking, views of the soothing river right from the porch, and close proximity and easy access to the heart of Waco. It all combined to make our trip flawless. Oh and there's a hammock! And cornhole! We decided to watch the eclipse from the front yard, and it was amazing. They even provided eclipse glasses and a souvenir postcard! Highly highly recommend staying here when visiting Waco or anywhere nearby!

Clean, private, comfortable

Overall, everything was nice, outside was kept up, sitting on the deck in the mornings was nice. (Too may bugs in the evening). A little farther out of town than we thought , so eat while you're in town or plan to cook at home. Would love to have seen a cleared path down to the river, amybe with a landing area of sorts.
