    What a fabulous family fun place to go enjoy in Waco, Tx. Actually you don't even need family…read more Just be adventurous and young at heart. There is so much to enjoy while relaxing. We stayed in our RV and took grandkids. They had a ball. So many fun kids activities. They have a cute little restaurant with good food and a darling general store. The only overpriced thing is bagged ice!!! They have everything you need to play tennis, pickleball, putt putt, woofle ball, soccer. Take your own pool towels. They have cabanas to rent which are great for shade but a little high dollar. I had a few issues with some cleanliness but when I voiced my thoughts they got right on it. Super fun craft activities for kids. Emily and Abigail awesome in that area. Aliyah was our bright sunshine gal at the pool. If you live close to Waco it is a super economical awesome vacay place because no flight costs! We went Monday through Friday and it was so quiet and nice.

    Recently spent a weekend here, and overall we had a good time. Like most places, there were…read moredefinitely some positives and negatives. **The Good** There are a lot of amenities to enjoy. The property features a playground, several dining options, a general store, live music, a swimming pool with a swim-up bar, mini golf, fishing, a water park for kids, and more. Most of the amenities are well-maintained, clean, and provide plenty of entertainment for families. The on-site restaurant was actually better than expected. It's nothing fancy, but the food is tasty. Some menu items are a bit pricey, while others are reasonably priced. They offer a variety of accommodations, including cabins, tent sites, and RV hookup spots, which gives visitors plenty of options depending on their style of camping. The location is another plus. It's right on the river and just outside of Waco, making it feel like a getaway while still being close enough to town if you want to grab something or explore the city. They also offer golf cart rentals, which can be very helpful if your cabin or RV site is located farther away from the main amenities. **The Bad** One of the biggest drawbacks is that most amenities don't open until around 10-11 a.m. If you have kids who wake up early, you're left waiting several hours before there's much to do. I can understand limited hours during the week, but on weekends--and especially throughout the summer--the water park and other family attractions should open earlier. There's no reason the water park couldn't open at 9 a.m. The park markets itself as a kid-focused destination, but in reality it feels more like an RV resort with some great family amenities added in. The cabins are another area where expectations should be managed. The descriptions on the website make them sound much larger than they actually are. We stayed in a cabin advertised to sleep 10 people, and with only four people it already felt somewhat cramped. If you're traveling with a larger group, I'd strongly recommend booking multiple cabins next to each other instead of relying on one large cabin. The cabins could also use a more thorough cleaning. I completely understand that being near the river means bugs and outdoor debris are unavoidable. However, our floors were noticeably dirty, and the walls had shoe marks, scuffs, and other stains throughout the cabin. It felt like only the most frequently used areas received attention during cleaning, rather than the entire cabin. Another surprise was that the beds weren't made upon arrival. Instead, guests are given packaged sheets and expected to make the beds themselves. At the price point they're charging, I think that should already be taken care of before guests arrive. Lastly, the overall value feels a bit off. The experience is enjoyable, but it comes across as overpriced for what you actually receive. **Overall** We had a fun weekend and genuinely enjoyed our stay. However, after reflecting on the experience, it felt like the property falls a little short in several areas. The amenities--especially the water park and on-site dining--do a lot of the heavy lifting when it comes to the overall experience. Without those, my rating would be significantly lower.

    We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful 2-bedroom, 2-bath vacation rental while…read morecelebrating my mom's and sister's birthdays, and it exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we arrived, the home felt thoughtfully curated, comfortable, and elevated--perfect for a special celebration and quality time together. The attention to detail really stood out. One of our favorite touches was the coffee setup--there were three different ways to make coffee: a French press, a percolator, and a traditional coffee pot. It felt indulgent and intentional, like staying somewhere that truly understands how important a great morning coffee can be. Sitting back and enjoying coffee together made our mornings feel slow, cozy, and special. The location was unbeatable. Being so close to the Silos made exploring Waco incredibly easy, and there were fantastic restaurants of every kind just minutes away. Whether we were heading out for the day or coming back to relax, the home was the perfect retreat--peaceful, stylish, and welcoming. This rental added so much joy and comfort to an already meaningful birthday celebration, and it's a place we'll always associate with beautiful memories. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Waco, especially for a girls' trip, family celebration, or elevated getaway. We would absolutely stay here again! Also - the owner is so nice and helpful and quick to answer any questions! I highly recommend Green Door Lofts! I want to stay in all of the rooms!!!

Also, they have private parking and they also have a pool that is private. The location is downtown Waco right next to some great food eateries. I truly would recommend this place. So the next time you're in town stop at the green door lofts.
