Everything we hoped for

The house was very clean and welcoming. It was fun to stay in a home that Chip and Joanna Gaines remodeled but that the family has maintained so nicely over the years. It had everything we needed for a great stay in Waco and would definitely stay again!

Perfect Girl’s Trip!

The Plain Jane is beautiful, cozy and spotless. We had fun watching the episode while we stayed in the house. An unexpected perk was a nice keurig coffee machine with plenty of coffee for our stay! The neighborhood was quiet. Easy to navigate by car to the silos and downtown area. Would definitely stay here again!!

Waco New years visit

We were visiting family in Waco for new years a few blocks from this property. We decided to stay here since it fit out family better than a hotel. The check in process was easy and the bed wee super comfortable which can be hard to find in a VRBO.

The Plain Jane is Perfect!

We traveled to Waco with my parents for their 80th birthdays. Since my Dad has mobility issues, I needed to find a home with zero entry and no stairs. This gem of a house was perfect! It's cozy yet allows for privacy and has a spacious kitchen. Beautiful decorative touches from Chip and Joanna! The Property managers were attentive and genuinely so nice! I highly recommend staying here...it's about a 10 minute drive to the Silos and other attractions in Waco. We just loved our stay!
