“Amazing Airbnb! Blown away with the character and design. Feels like you’re at home. Walkable to everything Magnolia, delicious restaurants, spice village, union hall, Waco running and so much more. The backyard is gorgeous and so relaxing! The hosts are incredibly kind and so helpful for anything you need. This airbnb is the absolute perfect place to stay and worth every penny. Will 110% be staying in this home again when we come back to visit!” ~Katie July 2024


Self-check-in. Keyless entry via keypad at the front door. We will message you a unique code before checking in. Guests have access to the entire house and backyard.

This unique home, originally built in the 1900’s, has been newly remodeled, professionally decorated, and completely updated - ready to share new memories!

We were able to retain this home's original wood floors and distinct wood plank walls, while remodeling to create en-suite bathrooms for each bedroom, and an “open” hallway that modernizes the entire main areas into a gracious open floor plan.

"All I can say is Wow! We LOVED this house. Super close to downtown Waco! The character, charm, and beautiful spaces made our girls' weekend at the Silos the best experience! We sure loved the personal touches and all the decorator’s eye candy. If you want to stay in an upscale, well-decorated space, this is the house for you!

Awesome place to stay!

295 Steps to Silos was a perfect place to stay. The accomodations were very warm and inviting. The pool, the snacks, plus the distance to the Silos was nothing short of amazing. Thank you so much!

Great place!

My husband and 5 kids stayed in your home and it was absolutely perfect. We walked to the Silos multiple times and visited museums. The Mexican restaurant nearby was great. The house was perfect for us. My kids loved the pool and the house was clean and smelled great. We would definitely stay here again.

Girlfriends trip

We had a wonderful time at Magnolia Oasis. Wendy is a wonderful, helpful, friendly host. Her property is beautiful, well decorated with some fun details like vintage games and a victrola that we played for hours. Everything was extremely clean and comfortable. We couldn’t enjoy the pool and the beautiful backyard due to the rain. Anyone staying at this property will have a great time!

Bucket List Family Trip Accomplished

This is the best rental home I've stayed in ever. The design, layers and comforts were amazing! Loved the connection to Magnolia (the reason for our visit) and the thought....all of the extra touches, to make the guests' stay perfect. All of our needs, and then some needs we didn't even think of, were covered. One of the things we appreciated most was how delicious the house smelled!

We’ll be back

3 couples and 2 kids stayed here while watching a volleyball tournament. SUCH A BLAST! Having stayed at many VRBOs, this host thought of everything. Plenty of towels, clean sheets, extremely comfortable mattresses, high-quality bath products, cool game table device, sparkling pool and everything was spotless. Add to that that we could walk to numerous restaurants and the Magnolia Silos and coffee, shops, etc. I will be definitely staying here again.

Not a detail missed!

Our family loved staying at Magnolia Oasis! We were all amazed at how every detail was thought of. From a fully stocked kitchen to bath supplies to pool toys and s’mores supplies! We had everything we could possibly need for a visit to Waco/magnolia. A short walk to the Silos made the location ideal and the hosts were very attentive. We would definitely recommend this stay to all our friends!
