Clay Cottage - Magnolia, Baylor och Waco centrum

The Clay Cottage is well appointed and comfortable, accommodating my family of six. The owners are gracious, kind, and excellent communicators. They provided a home that was appointed to allow us to prepare our meals and find refuge from the Texas heat during our stay. We were able to walk to many of the places we visited in Waco. This was a nice experience that was enhanced by the owners kindness.

Very clean and well equipped especially in the bedrooms with chargers and bathroom with travel size options. Loved the small touches and could tell someone thought about the guest experience.

We absolutely loved our stay in this cute and charming home on Clay Ave! We were in Waco for Baylor’s Orientation for my freshman daughter and moving my junior daughter into a new house so this trip was a working trip for us! The location was perfect and only 2 blocks from Magnolia so I was able to walk to Magnolia Press every morning for coffee. My daughter and friend staying with us did morning runs around the silo district and neighborhood daily too and felt very safe. Clay Ave is a busy street but we never had any issues with noise at night. Also the beds were some of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in. We’ve stayed in many rentals and it was so nice to come back home after a long day and get a good nights sleep. The house had everything, even a hairdryer for each bedroom which was such a bonus allowing us to dry our hair in the bedroom while someone else used the bathroom. One bathroom was never a problem - the house has everything you need, even extra toiletries, and the owners had cute baskets in each room with waters and chocolates for us upon arrival! Such a wonderful home and we will definitely stay again!

We enjoyed a wonderful two-day stay at the Clay Cottage! The location is just a couple blocks from the Silos in a clean and fairly quiet neighborhood. A terrific base from which to explore all that Waco has to offer. Such a perfect spot to visit with friends in the cozy living room or around the fire pit out back. It was easily the best-equipped rental we have ever stayed in with all the kitchen necessities you would need. The beds were so comfortable! David was a great host with immediate response to any questions we had. We can’t wait to return for another stay.

Great thing about this house is it is close to a lot of cool things. We had a good time at the Backyard. Had great Mexican food at Ninfa's. We spent a lot of time in the Backyard around the fire pit.

Stayed here with my mom and sister-in-law for a girl’s trip. Very cute cottage about two blocks from the Silos (5 minute walk). Easy check in process, easy communication with the host, toiletries provided, etc. Very cute and chill back patio, and you can hear concerts from a nearby venue as you sit outside and relax after a fun filled day.

This cute cottage is located very close to the Silo area. If it had not been so hot, (95-100 degrees) we could have walked to it. The cottage itself was clean and decorated very tastefully with lots of extras for guest: charging devices at each bedside, hair dryers, shampoo, conditioner, & bottled water to name a few. Although this home is located on a busy street, we were not bothered with noise that kept us from sleeping. There are several homes being renovated in this area, but again, no noise that bothered us. There is one bathroom, which is small, but the owners have taken advantage of every space to make it very functional. We had one issue the first morning we were there, but the owner, David, responded within 15 minutes and took care of the need. I’m happy we chose this rental as it was close to everything we wanted to do.

We enjoyed ourselves in this wonderfully equipped house. The decor is lovely, the furniture is very comfortable, and the ac works really well. The proximity to the Silos at Magnolia is awesome, and we enjoyed walking to restaurants, as well as cooking at home. Clay Avenue is busier than I thought it would be, but the house itself makes up for that.😊. Would highly recommend.

This house is simply lovely and cozy. We felt right at home. The backyard was beautiful with a nice gas fire pit, which we thoroughly enjoyed. We would most definitely go back to this house again.

Great location. Very nice inside and great backyard

Great house! It was incredibly clean and well decorated. It had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We loved that the owner had a list of things to do and places to go and eat. The location was great - easily within walking distance of the Magnolia property. The owner was always very prompt in answering any questions we had.

Very clean and well equipped especially in the bedrooms with chargers and bathroom with travel size options. Loved the small touches and could tell someone thought about the guest experience.

Very comfortable home and well appointed!! Super clean and had everything we needed. Convenient to downtown Waco and the Magnolia silo area. David was also extremely responsive when we contacted him with questions and that was much appreciated. We highly recommend this home and would definitely stay again!!

Host was very helpful and informative. House was clean and in very good condition. Definitely would stay here if in the area again.

Clean and nice. They even provided coffee and creamer!

Had a great stay in this cute home! Perfect for our girls trip. The home is clean and welcoming. Love that it’s close enough to walk to the Silos!

Family of five stayed for a weekend while we moved our Baylor Bear to a new home. Very clean, comfortable home. Would stay here again.

Cute and very clean with everything you need to enjoy a stay. It’s an older house, so floors are sloping but I thought that added to the charm. Noise from street can be loud. Also there’s a freight train nearby that seems to go by at 3am and doesn’t stop blowing its whistle. Woke me up each night. Microwave stopped working a few times which was surprising because it’s a new one. Owner said he’d look into it. Speaking of owner, he’s very responsive and answers all questions immediately. Walking distance to Magnolia and restaurants. Lots of nice rehabs on the street but also some run down properties, but we felt safe.

Clean, great location by the silos. Communication with host was great!

Cottage was very cute and clean. Bathroom was tiny and difficult to maneuver if you are more than 5'5" tall or over 185 lbs. Neighborhood is transitioning so be aware not all homes are updated and some transients may be around. We had no issues but just be mindful of surroundings. Abundant exterior lighting so light filtering window treatments would be helpful. Very close to Silos and downtown Waco. This was a great place to stay for our visit. Owners were very responsive and gave helpful guidance to local eateries and activities. We would stay here again.

The house was great! It’s decorated adorably and it’s very close to everything!

Overall wonderful property. Only issue is it sits on a very busy road with loud traffic all night. Cars blaring music were driving by all night. That said, it’s close to down town and accommodations were great. Just bring ear plugs for night time.

Detailed Review: The rental is EXACTLY what it says it is. A 3 bedroom, 1 bath cottage type home. It’s not a perfect picture book home, and that’s actually what gave the home charm and made it more comforting. The beds/bedding were comfy. Very close to Baylor and restaurants for parents coming to visit. The home is cozy, and we had a great visit. The owner is amazing with communication, and the pre-visit communication was the best I’ve ever had in 17 years of using this site, addressing possible issues beforehand. The neighborhood is under renovation (as most of Waco is); that said, it is safe and the few people we experienced in the area were kind. We sat on the front porch and talked for a while and had a great time. As far as if being a loud neighborhood, I guess if you live in a very quiet area it is. There is a nice bar/grill spot a street or so over, if you’re sitting outside you can hear music from there. Inside I heard nothing. Neither bothered me and the music was actually nice. I think I heard a car once. As a nurse, the only warning I would give is that it’s a pier and beam foundation, so there is some sloping for older or balance impaired people. There is only one bathroom which did not bother us at all, but again for older or balance impaired people, stepping in and out of the tub is a slight change in height that you should be aware of. Other than those things, this is a great spot that we sincerely enjoyed. Will likely stay again when visiting our Bear.

House is conveniently located close (within 6 blocks) to Magnolia Market/Gardens. Cute, beautifully decorated.

An adorable, very homey and tastefully decorated 3 bedroom within walking distance to everything Silo!! Great communication, easy to get to and conveniently located! So many amenities available/included. We were very pleased with our 5 day stay!

Perfect stay. Davis is a great communicator! He sent a message letting us know the place was ready for an early arrival. The home’s decor is adorable. It’s filled with thoughtful amenities. It’s just a quick walk to Magnolia Silos. It’s evident that the owners put lots of effort in making this home comfortable. Highly recommend.

We stayed here for our girls weekend and it was amazing! The location is great and the house was perfect. Any time a messaged the host with a question, they responded quickly. They were very helpful and we really enjoyed the stay.

This cute house was perfect for our stay. My daughter and I traveled to Waco for her birthday and all things Magnolia Market and the Silos! The house was clean, nicely decorated and had everything we needed. The owner was great to work with from the time of booking to check out. There were a number of great suggestions on where to go and what to do, including dining options. The location was just blocks from the Silos which was wonderful. After we left, the owner called to let us know my daughter had left her iPad behind. He was so kind and had it shipped to us! Highly recommend!!

The home was very comfortable & cozy. Plenty of space for our party of three. Location was perfect for our Magnolia Silos adventure & everything else around town. The owners were very quick at responding to questions we had. We would love to stay here again.

Communication and check in process was seamless. Darling, well-appointed accommodations right in the heart of downtown Waco. We appreciated having such a comfortable stay close to Baylor while we moved our son into his dorm. Thank you!

Host was wonderful! Timely and knowledgeable responses, great Waco suggestions. Location of house was perfectly centered, very cozy home.

Clean, great location by the silos. Communication with host was great!

Property was in a great location to everything we wanted to visit. Silos were right down the street within walking distance. Great restaurants and entertainment close by. Five minute drive to Baylor Campus. Over all great cottage, very clean and easy to get in and out of. Host was very easy to communicate with and accommodating.

We had a great stay in the cottage. It was an excellent location with good walking distance to Magnolia and other downtown Waco locations.

A cute little house in a great location for accessing most of downtown Waco! We were able to walk to all the restaurants, shops, and attractions on our list! Plenty of street lights so we felt comfortable walking home from dinner even as it started getting dark. We ways travel with white noise machines, so had no trouble with street noise. Highly recommend!

This was the perfect spot for our 3 generation girls’ shopping trip. We were able to walk to boutiques and the silos and it was just a short drive to the places we wanted to eat. It was clean and we felt safe.

My wife and 4 young children headed to Waco for a short 3 day stay and chose the Clay Cottage to stay in. David was fantastic to work with, and the house was within easy walking distance to the silos. The house was clean and David was very responsive with anything we needed. It was a great trip for our family, Waco is a special place!
