This review will never be sufficient to say how much we enjoyed our stay! My only regret is I wished we would have stayed 2 nights to fully spend a day at the house. No detail is overlooked. From the blueberry scones upon arrival to the spray misting fans by the lawn chairs ready to go, Poppy & Rye have got you. Book it now!

I have stayed in numerous Airbnbs over the past 10 years. So when I say this home, not just a house, a home was all you could ask for. From walking up to the bright colored poppy door, to the southern surprise of Dr. Pepper and peanuts, waiting in the refrigerator, for you. Tasteful decorated from ceiling to floor. The beds were just right for a good nights sleep. Being a sinamental soul, Poppy’s poems placed throughout the home was a sweet touch. You will feel right at home as soon as you arrive. Thank you Dana for your understanding and support towards my daughter’s photo day. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We will for sure be back Shelly

We have stayed at so many Airbnbs and this was the best experience we have ever had! This was a one night stop over for our trip. My son asked me if we could just stay there the whole time! The thoughtfulness of everything in the home is remarkable. Rye & Dana are the best hosts and I hope other Airbnb hosts can make a stay at their place to learn a few things (no offense to any of the previous hosts we’ve had, just saying they went above and beyond the standard). My husband and I have already decided to make Waco a destination for the two of us and to stay at this home again in the future. It’s really awesome the touches they have put into the place and how Poppy’s legacy is living on through it! Also to note, we loved the tile, faucets, and the woodworking details throughout, as well as the picture wall and all of Poppy’s poetry and the instructional and informative notes! This one can’t be beat! (Except maybe the other homes they have?) Can’t wait to find out!

First time to Texas and Poppy’s Place was so fun and welcoming! We came to Texas to see our son graduate from Ft Sam in San Antonio❤️ Since we were coming into Texas we thought why not stop in Waco first for a couple days to see Magnolia. This house was the PERFECT location! It’s just like a 5 minute walk to the Silos! We were able to walk everywhere we went except for Magnolia Table..but that is only a 5 or so minute drive. The house is adorable and you can tell the owners put a whole lot of love and time into it. If you are staying in Waco..search no further! Book this house! You will love it❤️❤️

We had an great time at the Bungalow! Everything was thought of. We had a two year old and Dana provided us with a pack n play. The decor was beautiful and made for a comfy stay. The beds were comfortable and so was the living spaces. So glad we chose this place to stay in.

I can’t say enough nice things about this home and its hosts! The care and attention to detail is bar none- the home is pristine and they have taken so much care to make it feel special from the moment you walk in. I would 10/10 recommend.

This was the best Airbnb I have ever stayed in. Dana and Rye have thought of every little detail and make your stay personal from the start. They tell a touching story through their branding. I love that Dana and Rye continue to honor Poppy and let his optimistic writings postitvly impact people and families.

Our family of six - including kids ranging from 8 to 16 - loved our stay at Poppy & Rye House. Though we were only there for one night, it was a truly lovely experience. The home is warm and welcoming from the moment you arrive. The lighting, the music playing on the TV, the fireplace - it all created an atmosphere that made us instantly feel at home. We played a board game at the kitchen table (one of several games tucked in the living room closet) and ended up staying up way too late because it was just that cozy and fun. We're not usually a board game kind of family, but something about this place made us slow down and enjoy it. Each bedroom feels like its own little sanctuary. The kitchen feels familiar, like a place you’ve cooked in before. And the front porch? It’s the kind of spot you’ll want to sit on forever. We left wishing our schedules had allowed for a second night - and are already dreaming of coming back.

Wow - I have never felt so welcomed to an Airbnb. So many thoughtful touches here and so very comfortable. Everything was very clean, beds were comfy and all the linens were great. They have gone above and beyond to make sure their guests have what they need. Great communication. Thanks so much!!!

This spacious house has everything you need for a great stay! Dana and Rye did not miss a thing. The house is beautiful and so relaxing! We spent a lot of time on the front porch and in the backyard. Perfect location in Waco! You can park your car and walk to great restaurants, shops, a bakery, and museum. The grocery store is a short drive, and the kitchen is fully stocked to whip up a meal. We’ve stayed at Dana and Rye’s other house, and we will definitely rent either one on future trips to Waco. We love Dana and Rye’s houses. Feels like home!
