Cabin holiday rentals in McLennan County

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.

Great place to stay! Everything was clean, it looked exactly like the photos. It was just what we needed for a short stay in Waco, would definitely recommend.

Kelli was a fabulous Hostess and the cabin was such a cute and cozy little gem. It was a very nice experience for my MIL's first visit to Texas. We were all very happy with Kelli and the adorable cabins and property. Thank you Blue Eagle Retreat.

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!

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

My wife and I stayed at Lakeside East at Live Oak Lake, and we both agree—it was hands down the best Airbnb experience we’ve ever had. From the moment we walked in, everything felt peaceful, intentional, and incredibly well-designed. The space was spotless, beautifully decorated, and filled with little touches that made it feel like a true retreat. Waking up to the lake just outside the window, enjoying coffee on the deck, and just soaking up the quiet atmosphere was exactly what we needed. It was the perfect mix of luxury and comfort. We’ve stayed at quite a few places over the years, but this one really stands out. We’re already talking about when we can come back. Huge thanks to the hosts for creating such a beautiful and unforgettable space.

beautiful home, situated in quiet country an amazing spot to relax and get away from home.

This is a good find! We did not come to the area for an R&R weekend. But, we will come back to Moon River to have one. The exotic animals are an nice touch. Great to watch from the porch while enjoying morning coffee. - bring binoculars! Had a great visit, staff is great, and they are continuing to improve the property. Only slight downside is the public roads getting to the ranch - they are rough!

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!

Beautiful River Scenery! Secluded Cabin away from Everything. Very Peaceful! Thank You Becky for hosting us

Just aan amazing place. Quiet, beautiful nature. Quality cabin, fully equipped.

This was a last minute booking , and they were very accommodating. It is an Ideal location for nature lovers. You will get to experience some enjoyable wildlife sightings. Moon river has Peaceful atmosphere.

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!

Super cute little cabin in the woods. Robert, the manager, was very responsive and extremely accommodating. Be sure to check out another of their properties, The Cowbell, which is also a great little cabin. Thank you, Robert!

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 !

The Little Dutch Cabin was a perfect awasis for our sister girls trip to Waco. Lindsey and Kenneth were extremely quick to respond and were great hosts. The cabin was beautifully decorated, clean, well - stocked, and had so many thoughtful touches. We loved relaxing in the soaking tub and the bed was incredibly comfortable. We enjoyed watching the horses graze while drinking coffee and eating breakfast on the patio. Although located off a main road, it was still very safe, quiet, and peaceful. It is far enough away, but still close to all the downtown excursions Waco has to offer. We enjoyed exploring all the Magnolia grounds, the suspension bridge, and horseback riding at Brazos Bluffs Ranch. We would not hesitate to book this listing again in the future. Thank you!

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. I booked the Bobwhite 🐦 cabin last minute. Check in was easy. The instructions were clear and included a map of the property. I slept well, the shower was relaxing, and the property was beautiful. I’ll definitely come back next time I’m in 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!
