The silo and the property are very lovely, it was a wonderful getaway. The shower was very relaxing and the bed is incredibly comfortable. We would definitely stay again, and they had the world's cutest dog come by to say farewell when we were getting ready to check out. We highly recommend it! Google Maps doesn't map quite to the right place, but if you drive further down Cox road you'll find the correct number, and the host was very responsive and kind in helping us find our way!

The Silo House was calming. I needed me time and that is what it offered. I felt safe and secure. Location is perfect. I totally decompressed. I had some great adventures exploring downtown Waxahachie. The ODD Festival was happening and it was so fun. The only downside, there is AC in the bedroom, however it can’t keep up with the Texas temps. The bedroom was hot. But thank you for the extra fan. It helped some. True Texans won’t mind it. lolI hope to return with my husband, or, for more me time. Thank you Cathy it was a pleasure meeting you.

Amazing home beautiful scenery easy check in close to town but far enough away to enjoy peace and quiet and different type of home being a silo home. Highly recommend
Wife and I enjoyed our weekend getaway in the “silo” not far from town for those who want to see people but far enough away to feel like your disconnected for hustle and bustle.

Fantastic Property
The property was beautiful! The hosts put a lot of effort into making this place a beautiful spot to stay. The icing on the top of the already wonderful cake is the hot tub we enjoyed after a long day at the Renaissance Fair. We would absolutely stay again!

Hidden Gem
Not enough wonderful things to say about this hideaway! The love and detail is evident throughout the property and inside the Silo (home). The hosts are super available when needed and the check in and out process seamless. The hot tub was a nice addition to the relaxing stay, pretty much feeling like you are in luxury, but also out in nature... One of my favorite features is the balcony where at night, you get to see the stars as well as city lights far into the distance. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place. I would stay there again the next time that I go to the Scarborough Renaissance Festival. 10 out of 10 stay! :)

Peaceful Stay
It was exactly as advertised. Extremely unique!!
The owner's made a concerted effort to respect my privacy--although unecessary, as they were the kindest folks. If I'd had the opportunity, I would've spent some time with them at a bon fire, but my work shcedule just wouldn't allow it.
It was an extremely peaceful and comfortable stay and will definitely stay again when in that area!!
Thank you Lee and Cathy!
