German Schmear house

Our place is Centrally Located in Waco. You are close to a Target, a Starbucks and HEB...not far from Baylor and Magnolia. The house is tucked away on a peaceful, quiet street. The layout of our house provides a big open living space that is great for families (with kids) and big groups. If you love to cook, our kitchen is a great space to host.

Come stay in our Newly Renovated German Schmear house. 1970s Ranch-style turned European Eclectic. Plenty of room with a great open floor plan. Natural light throughout. We are located around 10-15 Minutes from downtown, Magnolia Silos, Baylor & McLane Stadium.

Perfect for a visit to Magnolia Market

We had a short trip to The Silos, Magnolia Market and Magnolia Table . The house is very close to all theses and Baylor University as well. The house is beautiful, comfortable and well equipped. The beds are comfortable and there are plenty of towels, fans for each bedroom and kitchen supplies. The check out procedure was simple. We would definitely stay here again.

Weekend celebration!

We came to Waco to celebrate our daughter’s wedding. It was the perfect place to rest after each event We had plenty of room for five adults To spread out yet, be close together. My husband and I grew up in Waco and I actually grew up right down the street from where we stayed so it was so nice to reminisce and enjoy the neighborhood again so close to everything we needed: shopping restaurants, and all the activities we had a great day thanks for sharing your home

We loved staying at the German Schmear house! The house is beautiful and it was great to see some of Chip and Joanna's touches still there! We really enjoyed the opportunity to stay in a "fixer upper" house.Every communication with Jeffrey was seamless and he always responded to our questions timely.The house was close to many places we wanted to visit and there were several stores nearby for anything that we needed.Our only issue (no fault of the owners) was with the neighbor directly across the street who would sit in his car and play loud music. It was a little off putting but we made the best of it.
