Beautiful Country Home Minutes from Magnolia & Baylor Pool HotTub River Front

Come Stay at the C5 Ranch!!!!!
This beautiful 6 bedroom country home sits on 30 acres covered with large oak trees. Perfect for a large family, groups, reunions, weddings, hiking, fishing (water levels vary due to rain), wildlife observing, swimming, ATVs, etc. It is truly a beautiful getaway. Only minutes away from the popular Magnolia Market and Baylor University. The C5 ranch has deer feeders that work year round and has an abundant amount of whitetail deer. Sit in the dining room or on the front porch and watch the deer in the mornings and evenings. A large basketball court with 2 adjustable goals, swimming pool, ping pong table, and hiking trails is the perfect getaway for the kids to play and enjoy their stay as well.

With 2 different BBQ grills offered on the C5 ranch you can grill out by the pool or in the covered outdoor kitchen area. A grocery store is less than 10 minutes if you choose to eat in. Visit McGregor Tx (less than 10 miles) for small town TX restaurants , or Waco is about 15 miles with a plethora of shopping, food, and entertainment.

In addition to the main house, we have a guest house that can be rented to accommodate up to 6 more guests if need be. It may also be rented to a seperate party at the same time but will not interfere in any way with the main house.

Sit back and enjoy life at the C5 Ranch.

Beautiful Setting
The C5 ranch was an amazing home with a beautiful setting. We enjoyed our stay there very much. I asked if they could decorate it for Christmas even though we were there before Thanksgiving and a Jessica did. It was beautifuly decorated. It made our Thanksgiving/Christmas celebration memorable. A truly amazing place.

Comfy home but needs updates
The house is beautiful but could use some updates. Breakfast nook bench was all worn out. The upstairs bedroom had an artic cooling system that kept shutting down during the night.. It needed to be unplugged and plugged back in. Other issues too toework.

Large Group Meeting
Centrally located for our Sales retreat and meeting this was ideal for the 10 of us in the group. Lots of parking Jon checking in on us the first evening and made sure we were ok! Outside Waco but close enough if something was needed. The pool was a plus with the weather being Texas hot summer. Thanks for everything!

Great Thanksgiving week stay with family!
House was well-stocked, and owners so great to answer all my little questions by text throughout the week. Kids had a blast on basketball court and using trampoline. Even used hot tub once. Such a great country living in luxury experience with a beautiful large house, but with roosters and barn cats outside too. Our extended family had a great Thanksgiving together here; would definitely return. If I had to come up with something to suggest, it would be to have some comfortable furniture in the back so that family could sit around and watch kids playing on court, trampoline, etc.

Peaceful Country getaway
Dont be scared off by this place being listed out in the country! It has everything you need to enjoy your getaway! The house was large enough to accommodate my large group, plenty of bathroom space and plenty of lounging around space. The kitchen was fully stocked with anything we needed to make our meals and it has a very nice covered outdoor kitchen as well. There was a large dining table so we could actually all sit together for meals, hard to find when you travel with a larger group. We utilized both the pool and the hot tub and even hiked to the back of the property and explored the riverbed. We got to watch deer wander thru which is always exciting for a city dweller. The owner was available to meet us at the property and give us a quick tour so we could ask any questions we had. It made for a very nice family retreat to reconnect and unwind. Highly recommend!

Lovely place
As a quick Christmas/appreciation getaway for our spa team, I was looking for a quiet and enjoyable place for us to relax, yet not be bored. With only two nights to steal away from work, this home was exactly what we needed! It's very clean, open, comfortable and pleasant. The pool, hot tub/spa, gas grill, fire pit, basketball court, swings, open and equipped kitchen, etc... such wonderful amenities... we used it all! And we really didn't want to leave. There were 7 in our group and the place was perfect for us. The home is beautiful, private and very peaceful grounds... yet right off the highway and easily accessible. A close drive to Waco if you're going to Magnolia... and Crawford its self is an adorable town too. The owners, Jon and Jessica, were an absolutely delight! Very accommodating, attentive and kind... and also very respectful of our time there. They showed us the house and took us around some of the property as well. We could have hung out with them all day though, they were very enjoyable company! I highly recommend this property.... I'd come back for sure.

Family getaway for 75th Birthday
We had a family gathering for a 75th birthday. We had a great time swimming and hanging out around the pool. There is a lot of space to accommodate large families. Beds were very comfortable! Master bath is wonderful! Jon came by to meet us and showed us how to use the hot tub. We had a situation with a grease fire while grilling burgers. Jon was very kind and a class act. The Collins are good people and you will be in good hands! Rent this property!

Girls weekend
Large house with lots of bedrooms ( no bunk beds) that suited 14 ladies ranging in age from the 20’s to the 70’s. The owner is VERY responsive. It is a country house that is casual. Wonderfully spacious dining room was great for meals, crafts, and late night chats. We had a wonderful stay!

Winning experience!
We stayed in the owner's lovely home during the Waco Ironman race and it was a wonderful experience. The homeowner was very accommodating and helpful. We enjoyed relaxing by the pool and hiking the property. The chickens were fun to watch in the morning and we were the lucky recipients of some fresh eggs. We really enjoyed our stay and the house must have been lucky because my husband qualified for the World Championship in St. George, Utah. Thanks Jon for being a great host.

This place is an Amazing Get away
Me and some friends were looking for a quick get away from Dallas to celebrate the New Year holiday. This was the perfect place. The house is simply stunning. Our group was just adults. It’s very private and secure. We felt like we’re at a resort. The house is very spacious. We hiked to the lake. Sat outside on the outdoor patio Kitchen area played cards, laughing and just enjoying everyone’s company. Jon and his wife are just the best people you’d ever want to meet very gracious hosts. They met us with the warmest welcome, gave us a tour and background on the property, and left us to just enjoy the beauty of the ranch. The rooms are spacious, the beds are very comfortable there’s plenty of bathrooms and dinning enough for 12. We’d definitely stay here again. Thanks Jon and Joanne!

45th birthday getaway
Great please to get away from the city especially if you have children with you. There was plenty to do for our teens and they never got bored. From swimming in the pool, hiking the river, searching for fossils along the river, viewing the deer and even the neighbors huge ferral hogs...we didn't even have to leave to be entertained. Jessica and Jon met us upon our arrival to give us the tour of their beautiful home. They were very hospitable and responsive to any questions we may have had and even took the kids out to collects eggs from the chicken coop. We collected over 2 dozen eggs! We hope to come back again!

Baylor Graduation Weekend!
Jon and Jessica were great! They met us upon our arrival to their home and brought us water and had fresh eggs from their chickens. Jessica even made signs to congratulate my daughter on her graduation! Such a thoughtful thing to do! Their home is beautiful and was the perfect size for our family. The house is in a great location, easy to drive to Waco, Dallas and Fort Worth. We really felt at home and enjoyed our stay. If we go to Texas again, we will look to rent from Jon and Jessica! We started out as strangers and left as friends! <3

Wedding Weekend
We didn't know how we were going to celebrate our marriage with COVID, but I'm SO glad that we decided to have it here. It was a beautiful ceremony and we got some absolutely incredible photos out on the bluffs. It was very nice being able to spend the whole weekend here with our friends and family. The house is amazing and there was so much to do! The owners were absolutely wonderful to work with too. 10/10 would recommend!

Great for gatherings
We rented this home for a bachelorette weekend and it was perfect! The owners were very accommodating and had wonderful communication. Check in and out process could not have been more simple. The only thing I wish would have been different is the outdoor kitchen is on the opposite side of the home as the pool, making it difficult to grill and hang out at the pool simultaneously. The home is well stocked with ample space.
