Cabin vacation rentals in Lake Waco

Off the beaten path for Waco. A very earthy lovely place. James was great.

The cabin and ranch were very nice and matched the description. We arrived after dark to check-in and it was a little difficult to find our exact cabin as there are several like it but they do have signs showing the cabin names outside each one. Once inside we found the cabin was comfortable and matched the listing. We had one problem the first night with getting hot water but that was fixed by the next morning. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were comfortable. To note, the only seating options in the living room area are a couch/futon that can seat up to 3 and 2 bar stools and there are no tables or surfaces outside of the kitchen counters so finding places to set things can be difficult. There is a long road to get to the ranch that is paved but does have numerous dips and potholes. Finally, the stairs to the loft area are steep. The ranch does offer activities that can be booked directly through their website, we booked a couple and overall enjoyed the stay.

My family and I stayed here for a few days. We loved it. It was so peaceful!

It's a beautiful place, with beautiful views, the cabin brings you closer to nature, the hosts respond quickly to any questions

My stay at Moon River Ranch was unforgettable! The cabin was cozy, beautifully decorated, and provided the perfect retreat surrounded by nature. The safari ride was a unique and amazing experience – we got up close to wildlife with knowledgeable guides who made it even more special. The ATV rentals were another highlight, letting us explore the stunning property through well-maintained trails, offering breathtaking views at every turn. We enjoyed the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation, making this place ideal for anyone looking to disconnect and recharge. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, attentive, and went above and beyond to make our stay exceptional. We loved unwinding on the porch, soaking in the scenery, and enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The combination of activities, luxury, and serene atmosphere truly made this a standout experience. Highly recommend and will definitely return!

Can’t emphasize enough how beautiful this cabin was. The whole area was serene and I would definitely go back

The cottage at Moon River was great, we enjoyed our time there. The property is beautiful, we felt right at home. We walked around the property and saw so much wildlife. While we stayed we drove to Waco it was very nice, I’d recommend that you visit. Overall the place was great.

Great stay! Rained all night and added to the magic of our stay! Overall property was smaller than i thought, more of a pond than a lake. Well laid out and the cabin was clean and cozy even the tiny sleeping loft. Coffee was amazing they provided! Thanks for the great stay

This cabin was a wonderful retreat for our family. My wife and I have 4 kids all under 11 and we all loved it! All our kids slept up in the loft (our two boys shared a twin and our two girls shared the other twin) which was like a tree fort for them, they were thrilled! The cabin was cozy, spotlessly clean, and the king bed was very comfortable. All the furniture is very comfortable as well, especially the chairs in the living room and on the deck, which was a lovely feature of property… we got to watch a few Texas thunderstorms roll in while we were there and the peaceful atmosphere on the porch as we enjoyed the sound of the rain and thunder was a highlight of the trip. We had some neighbors in the cabin next-door, but they were great AND there is a large bush between the two cabins which obscures any view, which was nice and gives the porch a private feel. The AC/heating also works fantastic and it was super close to Homested Heritage activities. We will be back for sure! Thanks!

It was so peaceful and beautiful. We absolutely loved it

Place was amazing! Cabin was so nice and very clean. Loved the place. Would highly recommend to any guest in the area!

Great place to stay very close to the town of Waco. Clean and comfy accommodations in a quiet area. I loved everything about this trip especially being able to travel with my puppies. Excellent host who was very responsive. Will definitely stay again!

Very beautiful change of scenery. My kids loved being able to play outside in the rain with no care in the world. The lake was a small walk away but it gave them time to unwind after having soo much fun. Definitely will come back again.

Very nice bunkhouse. Very quiet and peaceful.

This cabin is in a secluded area. Even though it’s out in the country, it’s only a few minutes to both Hillsboro and Whitney. Everything was spotless. The host reached out a couple times before we got there just to make sure we had all of the instructions to get inside. The beds were very comfortable. Overall, it’s just a nice quiet place to relax. If we were coming back to the area with the family, we would definitely rent here again. Give this place a shot, he won’t be disappointed.

We had such a great time at this treehouse resort! Our cabin was perfect and the high ceilings made it seem so very big! The town it's in is very close to Waco but feels very country at the same time. We had a pancake breakfast at the donut shop in town and it was probably the best breakfast I've ever had. We will definitely be coming back in this time remembering our fishing poles so we can try out the pond! Also, this venue would be perfect for things like family reunions, weddings and events as they have a gorgeous rustic hall in the middle.

It was absolutely stunning and great! We will be back!

Beautiful cottage. Great peaceful stay in a quiet location. It was perfect for our one night stay with two young adult children. They stayed in the twin loft beds upstairs. Will be back again !

My wife and I had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful home in Waco! From the moment we arrived, everything was spotless, thoughtfully arranged, and incredibly welcoming. The home is even more charming in person than in the photos—full of character, cozy touches, and everything we needed for a relaxing visit. It truly felt like a home away from home. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Waco!

Everything was exactly as listed! We visited because our daughter was graduating from Baylor University and we wanted to find some place that was quiet and peaceful away from the University hustle and bustle community. It is a nice ride about 25 minutes away from the University. This was exactly the place that we were looking for! The pictures of the inside do not do it justice as it is more beautiful than that! Lexi and her husband have thought of everything that travelers would need, have clear instructions and also have it posted inside of the house. We didn't have time to go fishing or anything in the river but we did drive down to it and it is just as beautiful as described. We will definitely stay here again!

Jimmy and Andra’s lodge just outside Waco was awesome! It’s a well maintained, clean, rustic cottage with all the amenities needed for your trip. The owners go over and above providing a bottle of wine and venison jerky as well. The view of the farm was nice to sit on the back patio and enjoy. I would recommend this unique property to anyone visiting Waco. It’s a quick and easy drive into town.

I had a truly peaceful and relaxing stay at Danielle’s cabin! The space was cozy, beautifully decorated with charming touches like quilts and rustic wood ceilings, and felt very welcoming. The kitchen was well-stocked, and everything was sparkling clean. I especially loved sitting on the back porch, taking in the wide open views and the serene country atmosphere. It was the perfect place to unwind and enjoy some quiet time. Danielle was an excellent host, making sure everything was just right. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy, country retreat!

My family and I had a fantastic time while staying at Julia’s place. Julia was amazing with communicating making everything convenient and simple from the beginning to the end. The location was in a private setting with seating areas for relaxing with a fire pit, tetherball, corn hole and swings in the trees for the kids. The house was clean and welcoming with plenty of space for a large group to sleep comfortably. Overall,it’s a very peaceful place. I would definitely stay again and recommend anyone to do the same.

I recently stayed at this charming cabin in the woods, and it was exactly what I needed to unplug and recharge. The location was secluded yet accessible, surrounded by tall trees,pond and the calming sounds of nature. The cabin was clean, cozy, and had nice comfortable beds . I especially appreciated the little touches—fire pit with firewood, and patio with pergola to sit and eat and grill to cook. I spent my time enjoying morning coffee on the porch, and stargazing at night—something you just can’t do in the city. Overall great experience. Would absolutely return!
