{Waddill Cottage} Historic Downtown McKinney charming Craftsman with pool
Located in Historic Downtown McKinney, Texas, this darling 106 year old cottage has been remodeled with modern kitchen and bathrooms. 15 minute walk or 3 minute drive to all of the charm, dining and shopping of Downtown McKinney. This cottage home is truly a gem and is a cozy retreat from the hustle and bustle of life!
This was the perfect house for our girls weekend in McKinney! We were able to walk to downtown for the farmers market and lunch and then had a nice relaxing afternoon out by the pool! We would definitely stay here again!
Lovely, comfortable and had everything we needed. Four spaces for great conversations, inside and outside. Huge windows and a lot of light, blooming roses and hanging bird houses.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Waddell Cottage!!! It had everything we needed for a girls weekend-so much character and charm! The pool was perfect for cooling down, and the outdoor area was fantastic! Being so close to downtown McKinney was a huge plus. We are planning on returning to Waddill Cottage in the future.
Photos show the beauty of this property accurately. I absolutely loved the home layout, decor and outdoor amenities. Location is excellent. Communicating with the owner was superb. This listing will forever be a family favorite, 10/10 will stay here again!!! A home I would love to own!
This home is absolutely adorable. It was perfect for the Cowgirl Tea Party we were hosting for the Bride To Be! Very Clean. Great location. I still canât get over how perfect it is!!
Spacious house with so much charm and amazing backyard!
We loved this house so much! There was plenty of space for all of us. There was so much character and it was in a beautiful neighborhood. The backyard was gorgeous with plenty of seating. It's also so close to downtown McKinney. Highly recommend staying here!
I booked this cottage for a wedding weekend for my husband and me, our son, and my parents. The house was exactly as shown online. Lovely accommodations and very responsive host. Highly recommend this location if youâre planning a trip to McKinney!
We had four generations at this wonderful home. My 92 year old Aunt, two daughters and granddaughters enjoyed staying here. It was so much fun looking at all your special touches that made us feel right at home. We were close enough to town for my granddaughters to walk to town. We visited Texas Tulips. You must visit this place.
Older but well appointed home with character, nice furniture, updated kitchen, good beds. We had a great stay, and the house made our trip even more enjoyable.
We 4 came to attend a wedding, so glad I went on line early and found this gem. TY for the wondrous and wonderful home you provided. Hopefully something will come up in the future in this neck of the woods so we can book again
The Waddill Cottage was such a great house in which to relax and enjoy ourselves while in town for a family wedding. The large kitchen was well appointed with anything we would need for meals. We loved the outdoor spaces .... the spacious front porch in the mornings and the back covered patio in the afternoons and evenings. The beds were comfy. We loved the large living room and dining room since we were there with my sister and her husband, and much playing of games and visiting was done! We walked to the downtown a couple of times, which was fun. The owners, John and Alysa, were responsive and easy to communicate with when we had questions, etc. We are so glad we chose this house to settle in while in McKinney!
We booked this beautiful home for a relaxed bachelorette weekend and couldnât have had a better time. The home is beautiful and clean, the hosts were so responsive, and the beds were COMF. Absolutely would stay here again!
Booked this home for a little girls staycation and it could not have been more perfect!! Communication with the hosts is easy and prompt from booking to check out. The house itself is so well decorated it doesnât feel like an empty rental, it has a cozy lived in feel and made for the perfect backdrop for our girlie pop weekend. The house was big enough that we never got cabin fever, utilized every inch from the porch swings to the pool, front porch to the spacious gazebo. The kitchen was well stocked, even had an infusion pitcher perfect for sangria, baking plates for cinnamon rolls, plenty of coffee grounds to get through the mornings and cups for the pool and cute photos. We played card games on the spacious dining table, lounged in the living room and watched movies when it rained, sunned in the pool while watching the cardinals feed their babies in a nest in the gazebo. My favorite part of this trip was drinking sangria on the front porch watching the neighborhood with the girls during a thunderstorm. The beds were absolutely cozy, the AC worked well, the check in process was easy and we had absolutely everything we needed for an absolutely memorable weekend!
Fantastic place. Beautiful old-school-cottage-like house. Old timey light fixtures, decor, etc. Very comfortable though. Everything works great. Wood floors, big kitchen. All the beds very comfortable. Then thereâs the outside patio area⊠BOOM! Fantastic, plenty of seating. Canât say enough about that patio area⊠really takes the place over the top. Pool is pretty small (you wonât be doing laps in it) which was great for us because we have 3 grand babies that all need floaties, so the size of the pool made it easy to keep all the kiddos corralled. But the pool is plenty big enough for everyone to get in and cool off in the Texas summer (we stayed for July 4th). Also: there is a small gate that surrounds the pool area that the little ones canât get through or climb over. This makes grandma and grandpa very happy! Overall, LOVED the place.
The 1920s cottage was very charming! It is located in a mature and peaceful neighborhood conveniently only about one mile from the downtown historic & cultural district where shopping and restaurants abound. The cottage was spacious with comfortable furnishings and rooms. We enjoyed the swings on both the front and back porches. We took refreshing plunges in the swimming pool too! Communications with the host were easy & flawless. Highly recommended.
This 1900s house has some serious charm! Absolutely adorable. It was perfect for our group! There was outdoor seating in two different areas, plenty of indoor seating, and enough linens for our whole group! It was right around the corner from downtown McKinney, which is where we spent most of our time eating and looking in shops. Itâs also easy to get to the highway for anyone wanting to head to Allen or Dallas. The owners were easy to connect with if I had any questions.We loved our stay and we will definitely be back!
Your home was beautiful and comfortable with plenty of space for everyone. The kitchen was well stocked and had great cooking space. Beds were comfortable and the outdoor area was a great place to hang out w family.
We would highly recommend this home and we look forward to renting again when we are back in Texas!
Thank you so much!
