McLane Stadium

The downtown area, particularly around the Magnolia Market at the Silos, is a hotspot for visitors. Here, one can find an array of hotels, boutiques, and eateries, all within walking distance of the Dr Pepper Museum and the Waco Suspension Bridge.

Another popular spot is the university district, home to Baylor University. This area offers a mix of budget-friendly and mid-range accommodation options, as well as easy access to campus events, the Mayborn Museum Complex, and the picturesque walkways along the Brazos River.

Those looking for a tranquil retreat often opt for lodgings along Lake Waco, which provides a serene setting and opportunities for water sports and picnicking. Accommodations here vary from lakeside cabins to well-appointed hotels.

Beyond the city, visitors might choose to stay in the outskirts for a more rural Texan experience, with several guest ranches and B&Bs situated amidst the countryside's rolling hills and open spaces.

Navigating Waco is straightforward. The city’s compact size makes it ideal for exploring on foot, especially around downtown. Waco Transit System operates buses across the city, servicing most tourist attractions and providing a cost-effective mode of transport. For more convenience and flexibility, renting a car is a popular choice, as many sites are spread out and outside the range of public transportation.
