About this property

Welcome to the Nuthatch cabin. Nestled among the Oak trees in this peaceful retreat is your next weekend away. Our brand new resort offers some unique accommodations for Waco visitors. We look forward to hosting you!

The Space:
The Nuthatch Cabin

The nuthatch bird exhibits a somewhat “nutty” behavior or at least one that mystifies ornithologists. The bird often smears tree resin or pitch around the nest entrance. Whatever their reason, the birds seem to delight in their nests, resin and all.

You will delight in the Nuthatch cabin with its spacious open living area downstairs, perfect for visiting. The cabin accommodates four guests. The bedroom, with a king-size bed, and bathroom, are upstairs. Downstairs, the sofa provides a queen-size pullout bed.

The chefs among you will appreciate the kitchen area supplied with utensils, cookware, hot plate, microwave, refrigerator, and Keurig beverage maker.

Need Internet access? Individual Wi-Fi is provided in the cabin. Have a Roku subscription? Stream your favorite content on the TV. A complete list of amenities is below.

Conveniently located to local area attractions, the cabin is only 15 minutes from Homestead Heritage Craft Village, Magnolia Silos, and Baylor University, to name a few.

We invite you to relax and stay a while in the Nuthatch cabin. (If you have any insights into why the birds use resin, let the scientists know—you may solve a great mystery!)

Guest Access:
Guests will access the door with a four-digit code. Please check your text/email messages for your code.

The Neighborhood:
Waco Creekside Resort

Majestic oak trees provide a restful, sun dappled environment for your stay. Our rural location is peacefully removed from adjacent commercial clutter and noise, yet is only minutes from interstate access and shopping.

Peaceful-comfortable-cute as can be

We loved the quiet (probably a little noisier at their busier times-hardly anyone was there this week). The beds were comfortable. Everything was decorated so pretty and each cabin was based on different birds which appeals to us as bird lovers. It’s close to Waco and Homestead heritage and we enjoyed our time at both places. Just basically what we were looking for in a short stay to see family in the area.

Texas trip

Our stay was perfect! ❤️ Our cabin was beautiful and had everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable. Everything was new and clean. The cabin even had some staples provided for us. The lady at the welcome center/front office was very nice and helpful. After a busy day of site seeing we enjoyed coming back to the cabin to relax. It is just a short distance to Waco. We will definitely share this will all of friends making a trip out west. ❤️

Fantastic Girls' weekend!

This place is awesome!! It's new, it's clean, it's well run and absolutely ADORABLE!! Very calm & serene., even with the speedway so close. They truly thought of everything. And tho the cabin isn't big, the bathroom is generous, and the overall space is 'just right'. Wishing we could have stayed longer and would definitely stay there again.
