Waco, Texas
Summary:
The Mainsail is a tiny container home handcrafted by CargoHome™ right here in Waco. With 1 bedroom and an inflatable floor mattress, it sleeps uptimes to 4 people. Features a super comfy Tuft and Needle queen mattress. The rooftop deck lights up beautifully at night and is a great place to stargaze or enjoy a morning coffee. Full size, custom-tiled shower and spacious bathroom completes this beautiful home. Just a short 12 minutes to Magnolia and Baylor.
The Space:
This unique home started as a 40' shipping container. Our build company, CargoHome, insulates and panels the interior in pine shiplap and trim it out in 100+ year-old barn wood. The outside is clad with cedar siding, spaced to allow the original container to still be seen. The fun rooftop deck is surrounded by a custom cable railing system and lit with LED lights that gives the deck a beautiful glow at night. LED lights inside and a super-quiet, efficient mini-split AC unit makes this a comfortable, energy efficient space.

Very quiet, neat and clean.
We chose this listing for our Waco trip because the tiny home concept was intriguing. It was a comfortable stay. The location was a good location to experience the Magnolia fun. We fully recommend.
If you’re looking for a unique stay in an adorable place-this is it. From the shiplap walls & ceilings, decor, and every detail you can imagine. So much fun!!! The rooftop deck with lights with the sunset was pretty neat too. Clean, cozy, comfortable, and everything the pictures show is there. Centrally located to downtown and across the street from The Heritage Homestead. Will stay again!!!
Such a cute and fun little place to spend the new years!
Great property! Very clean and decorated nicely. Owners were amazing and checked on us throughout our stay. Highly recommended!
This was an impromptu getaway for our Anniversary!! Great hideaway in a country setting. Extremely clean and well stocked with all the amenities needed. Loved our short stay and will definitely book another stay here!
Enjoyed our stay!
Beautiful place to stay. The scenery outside the home was amazing with houses and trees. The inside looks JUST LIKE the pictures. We especially loved the little clear square instructions on the walls, the chocolate by the bed, and the black tea kettle. AND! The brita water filter was so clutch! It really made our day. Really EVERYTHING was amazing. We definitely will be coming back. We fell in love with Waco in less than 24 hours.
Photos are exactly what you get! Super cute and unique. It’s in a perfect location. Within walking distance of Homestead Cafe which is the best place to eat. I will say that some of the containers are close together and then some have distance between them. There was some road noise but honestly it didn’t bother us at all. We sleep with a fan for noise so we didn’t hear it at night anyway. It’s very clean and comfortable. These are small! I wouldn’t do more than 2 or it would be too crowded in my opinion. It was perfect for a couples getaway!
Check in process was so easy. The tiny home was so cute and the perfect size for our short trip. We enjoyed the rooftop most!
This is the cutest house ever! Kenneth was amazing to communicate with and he had truly thought of everything. We cannot wait to return. Don't let this one pass you by it is perfect!
