Quaint, Quiet Waco Stay

This was the perfect place for a quick Waco visit. Decor was adorable, everything we needed was already thought of and the host was great at responding to my questions and made great suggestions for local places to visit.

Loved our visit!

The home was beautiful inside and so inviting! Communication was always quick and easy. We had everything we needed!

And LOVED the close proximity to everything Waco/Magnolia!

Such a homey stay!

We came to town for my Graduation from Baylor and I'm SO glad we went with this VRBO! We were comfortable and relaxed and had everything we needed. The beds were comfy, and the house was well outfitted. When I had a question, the owner was very quick to respond and was VERY helpful! Thank you for such a relaxing, wonderful, memorable weekend!!!!

Nice CLEAN house. Comfy beds. There are minimal street signs which makes it hard to find. Additionally, the streets are gravel and sometimes you aren’t certain it’s the road!

Great place for any Baylor trip

We had a great experience! Dropped off our daughter for her freshman year at Baylor and wanted a place that was close, comfortable and provided living space a hotel wouldn’t offer - Chic Cottage/Textana was just that! Property was exactly as the pictures showed, was very clean and newer furnishings that were in great condition. We really appreciated the little touches throughout that property that made it feel like a home away from home. The only hesitation we had at first was the neighborhood looking a little rough, but we had no issues throughout our stay. We will be staying here again upon our next visit to Waco!

Great Stay

Although small, this property is perfect size for small group. This property is very clean, updated, and well stocked (dish-ware, cookware, spices, coffee/tea, etc)!! The bedding was very comfortable. I had a few questions for the host and she was very responsive and helpful!! My only critique would be the shower basin (shower pan) is a bit slippery when wet and some grip pads (or whatever those things are called) might be helpful with non-slip surface. Other than that it was great!!

Hi y'all!

My best friend, Maggie, and I decided to leap head first into an exciting business together and are thrilled to launch our first vacation rental in Waco, Texas. Textana is not only the name of our lovely cottage, but the name of our business! With one of us from Texas and the other from Montana, it seemed a fitting name for this new-found venture. We hope you enjoy your stay with us at Textana's Cottage!

Lots of Love,
Audra (& Maggie too!)
