LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION! A warm welcome awaits you at the cute house with the bright door and signature chevron wall. Poppy & Rye House is a cozy retreat nestled in the heart of the Silo District... private and relaxing, yet right in the middle of Waco's biggest attractions. We've been recognized by HGTV's top designers, featured as a top Airbnb by Levi Kelly, and frequently selected for photo shoots by leading retailers. WE ARE OFFICIALLY LICENSED WITH THE CITY OF WACO: #STR000353-04-2020

Good to know

Bright, light and airy with pops of poppy red and handcrafted pieces, it's the best of the old with the luxury of the new. The interior was thoughtfully designed by Dana with original shiplap, bead board, and hardwoods that are beautifully blended with all new modern decor. Rye -- a Harp Design Co-trained craftsman -- has crafted one-of-a-kind pieces throughout the home. We have 3 bedrooms with 3 FULL bathrooms (a rare find!). Two bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms for ultimate privacy. We're located in the heart of downtown Waco, a short walk to the Silos, on the next block over. Relax with friends and family on not one, but two, of our large porches (front & back!), or enjoy the private fire pit area in the backyard. 5 Reasons You'll Love Poppy & Rye House 1. Take the short walk to Magnolia (next block over) 2. Settle in to our cozy Adirondack chairs around the fire pit in our backyard 3. Grab a morning cup of coffee at Magnolia Press (just around the corner) 4. Listen to live music at Backyard (check their calendar to see who’s playing!) 5. We're LOCAL. No 3rd party managers for us. You'll have direct access to the owners! (If this property is unavailable, be sure to check our other Airbnb just down the street -- Poppy & Rye Cottage.)

Other Details to Note

The front bedroom has two (2) twin beds with slide out trundles for four (4) total beds if needed. (Handy for kids / extra guests.) We're within earshot of the Backyard venue which has live music from leading musicians / bands on Thurs, Fri and Saturday nights. You can sit around the firepit in our backyard and enjoy your own "private concert". A plus for most! BUT, if you're the turn-in-early type, we have ear plugs and noise machines on hand to block out the music completely. Check Backyard's concert calendar to see who's playing while you're in town — just a short walk around the corner.

We had an absolutely amazing time! The house was close to all the downtown attractions and you could walk pretty much everywhere. The inside of the house could not have been more perfect. Extremely comfortable for our crew and all the finishes were great. Would definitely come back and highly recommend staying while in Waco!

Beautiful kept arbnb! Clean and the extra touches I.e. welcome was nice. The extra goodies in the master bath was unexpected and the touch of the white robes was very love! Band was going to play our last night and Dana called to inform us so we would not be alarmed from the noise of a rap band. Dana gave us options, in case we didn’t want to stay that night with the noise.She is caring and kind! Such a blessing to stay there!
