About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Walk to the River or Downtown. One block from Cameron Park. 1 Mile to Silos!

The River Run is a boutique and curated bungalow, one block from the fabulous Brazos River walk and entrance to gorgeous Cameron Park and its 20 miles of single track trails. Only a few blocks from downtown eateries, The Silo’s and the zoo, the home is ideally situated in a quiet little transitional neighborhood close to everything. Take a jog in the morning down the Brazos River walk and see the famous Waco Suspension Bridge and get a bite at the many food trucks and small businesses close by. Evening walks by the river reveal lovely views of the water and beautiful animal sculptures line the way - a perfect opportunity for your next selfie:)
The home is so darling, curated and considered for your enjoyment. Two bedrooms and one bath will comfortably house your party and the kitchen is fully stocked and functional with all necessary appliances and cooking utensils, should you desire to stay in.
Relax on the full-width front porch or chill out in the very secluded and fenced off back yard in the red Adirondack chairs, under the string lights.

The house has been a multiple years labor of love for us, as we took it to the studs, and took our time putting it back together. We feel that it is finally ready to release into our vacation rental fleet, and we can’t wait to host you here! The River Run is a perfect home away from home and a launching pad to all things Baylor, Waco and Magnolia.
See you soon!

Wonderful in Waco
The house was very comfortable and inviting. Location was ideal for enjoying the River Walk and all the bronze sculptures. Easy access to Magnolia. Great backyard with grill and fire pit! The neighborhood is being restored. Highly recommend this home.

Great Visit
Great location and well equipped home. It had everything you’d need. It’s decorated so cute and close to the Riverwalk. We chose to drive downtown and it’s a very short drive. We’d stay here again!

Tiny little home.
The home was clean and adequate for visiting and sleeping, but the bathroom tub/shower was non-funtional. Imagine if we'd been a family doing physical things and had children who get really dirty. We managed, but one of us had to wash her hair in the kitchen sink. Rest of us old ladies just managed without for the two nights. Cute refrigerator. We never tried the TV as we were there for each other.

Wish we stayed longer
Needed a one night stay in order to make a trip to Dallas/Fort Worth extra special with a quick stay in Waco. We found this gem of a home that allowed a one night stay and it was so cute and perfectly placed in town that we wished we had more time to enjoy the town and the ammenities of the property. From the front porch to the cute backyard fire pit area, there are so many ways to enjoy the home. It’s so close to the river and easy access to downtown. The neighborhood felt perfectly safe and we had no issues.

Perfect location!
We had an amazing time staying here. Josh was so kind and responsive and gave GREAT recommendations for our time in Waco. We were close to the Silos and to other attractions downtown. The beds were so comfortable and my friends and I enjoyed our slow mornings drinking coffee and visiting on the porch! Would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend for others to stay!
