Wedding Family Weekend
Great place to stay for our son’s wedding in Waco. We were able to have the guest house as well so plenty of room for all family members to spread out. The house is spotless and had everything we could need. Thank you!

Space enabled a memorable weekend!
This old house has character, creaking stairs included (that's a plus - if you grew up with them, you know what I mean), and lots of comfortable common space that was a wonderful gift for extended family members to gather and visit after a family wedding. Everyone slept well, all was in good order, and communication with the owner was simple, straightforward, prompt and helpful. A lovely weekend enhanced by the provision of this home!

Great Family Reunion Spot!
We had a family birthday celebration for a family member who lives in Waco and rented two adjacent houses from Charmaine. This house was the perfect place to get together to visit, play games and put puzzles together! It was also close to sites to go see. :) It worked out perfectly for the group! Thanks Charmaine!

Nostalgia
This was an annual sibling trip along with spouses - had a wonderful time! This house reminded us of our growing up in an older home on Tres Palacios Bay. This house has been beautifully restored by Fixer Upper. We especially enjoyed the front porch and were amused when a wine tour bus stopped for about 5 minutes as the house was on their tour route. The location is excellent and very convenient to the fine restaurants we dined at.

Perfect
We wanted the full Fixer Upper experience. As a group of 8 adults, this house had plenty of room and everything we needed. We loved getting to stay in the "Catastrophe" house from Season 1 Episode 2. Charmaine was a delight to work with and so welcoming. We would definitely come and stay again.

Bachelorette getaway
We had a two night stay for my daughters bachelorette ladies. The house is absolutely beautiful and we really enjoyed our stay. It was great to be able to see the renovation recap of this beautiful property. The host was absolutely amazing, very thorough and responsive. The neighborhood was also pleasant and quite. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay again!

Fixer Upper home from first season
The home is unique and spacious. It has all you need for an extended stay and rooms for everyone. The neighborhood has had a downturn but we had no problems at all. We enjoyed evenings watching passersby from the porch. We would stay again for sure.

The Gorman House
The house was beautiful, so close to downtown Waco and clean!! We all enjoyed our “Fixer Upper” experiences. The owner was so friendly and answered calls and text when communicating with us, she even had bottled water, snacks and some food items for cooking in the pantry, and coffee. The washer and dryer was very nice to have as well. Overall, it was a great homey place to stay!

Gorman House
Love the main floor space. Open and very comfortable. Kitchen well equipped. Bedrooms were comfortable. While the tub/shower are indicative of the style/age of home. The showers were uncomfortable to use and small.

Loved this property!
This house was absolutely perfect for our girls getaway weekend! The location was close to all the things we were wanting to do without being too busy. We loved how many bathrooms there were! The third floor stairs are a little sketchy lol Beware of them after you've had a mimosa or two! The kitchen and living room were spacious and fit us all well. When we first arrived we were slightly taken aback by the surrounding neighborhood however we quickly realized it was all ok! Parking was a bit of a trick at times but we made it work! Our host was kind and responded quickly to our questions just before we checked in. Overall we loved it and would recommend for any large girls group getaway for sure!
