here it is: Note that it is on the border of Elm mott, Axtel, and Elk. The davidian entrance is just down the road From the EE ranch entrance. If you zoom out you will see how far away from Waco proper it is.
EE Ranch and Davidian compound
Here are directions from another site
"Directions to Mount Carmel
Here's how to get there, in case you're curious. The directions below are from the tourist center brochure, with my own notes in brackets.
From the Waco Tourist Information Center [I-35 at University Parks Dr.] take IH-35 North just across the river to the Lake Brazos Exit. Go right on Lake Brazos. [This appears to have been renamed Martin Luther King Dr.; I don't know if the tourist center directions are just out of date or are following a right-wing political correctness that ignores such name changes.]
Just across from the Holiday Inn is Orchard Lane. Turn left on Orchard Lane and go to Loop 340 where you will turn right. [Note: Do not turn on the first "loop highway" you cross, I think it's route 742; I did that by mistake and ended up going round in circles. Keep going on Orchard Ln. until you get to Loop 340.]
A short distance on the left is FM 2491. Turn left onto that road. You will come to a split in the road, but stay on 2491 which bears to the left.
About 5 miles from Loop 340, you will see large wavy metal gates (Double E Ranch Road) on the left (not far from the split). Just beyond that property is a gravel road on the left (Double EE Ranch Road). Turn down that gravel road. The Mount Carmel property is a short distance on the right."
