Great little house in the country! Excellent location for seeing the sights in Springfield. Outside of the city but minutes away from everything. Very comfortable home with everything we need. Our dogs loved exploring the yard and fields. We especially enjoyed our morning coffee on the side patio. Highly recommend.
We were glad the took a last minute reservation when we decided to get away for a couple of days on a whim. We wanted to be comfy and not have to think for a couple of days. Very cute, nice deck, beds were great. Ceiling fans, Google voice system, and watched free streaming movies on several apps. That was amazing! Th fire stick with all the services was the icing on the cake. Quiet and undisturbed.
Clean, comfortable, pet-friendly property that was perfect for our stay. The host communicated early and provided everything we needed for an easy check-in and check-out.
This property was perfect for our weekend getaway. Close enough to stores but felt far enough away to feel secluded, which is exactly what we needed. Kirsten was very friendly and super responsive. Would definitely return in the future.
This place was perfect for our 2 night stay while visitng relatives in the area. The place is adorable and very clean! The owner was very responsive to my questions before and after our stay.
What a wonderful place in the country--and close to Springfield and all its sites. Perfectly peaceful blended with the latest technology. Very responsive owner too. Loved it.
We stayed here as a family for almost a week, and loved it! It was quiet, cozy, and had every amenity we needed. Still very close to Springfield while being in a peaceful, rural setting. We would stay here again!!
We had a great stay, we only stayed 2 nights. It had everything we needed and I really appreciated the Google nest. I was pretty nice to be able to have white noise playing at night. We did have an issue with the tv during the storm, but that was out of everyone’s control. If we come back to Springfield, we would try to book this place again.
Adorable, nicely decorated and had everything we needed. We were very comfortable staying in this little country house. Location was perfect. Owner was friendly & responsive. Honestly, the cleanest VRBO we have ever been in.
Enjoyed my (solo) stay here while taking a 4-day leave. I wanted a quiet place to read and relax, while also being close enough to the city to do a few things here and there. Comfortable, clean, and convenient. Would without hesitation stay here again should the occasion arise.
What a wonderful property. Super cozy and very tech equipped. We loved the morning sunrise over the fields - my dog especially. The walks were glorious. If you’re staying in Springfield, I highly recommend this peaceful getaway over a hotel.

Hello and thank you for such a wonderful review! We work hard to keep this little house a great place to stay and are so glad you enjoyed your stay! Hope to see you again soon!
We really enjoyed our stay as we checked out all things Lincoln in Springfield. Only 15 to 20 min drive to downtown! Quiet countryside setting surrounded by fields and cornfields. Saw several deer in the fields out back and one right off the front porch. Communication with the host was great and check-in process was super easy. Great price and very clean and comfortable environment. Also, the shower with the jets was very popular with the kids. Would definitely stay there again if in the area!
We enjoyed staying at this property. This was a new place for us and very conveniently located for where we were visiting.

Hi Jen,
Thank you for your review, although it's a bit disappointing to receive 4 stars as opposed to the 5 stars we strive for. I'd love to hear more details on your stay and suggestions for how it can be a 5 star stay in the future for you.
Thanks!
Kirsten
Couldn’t have asked for a nicer place to stay while I was in the Springfield area. Looking forward to my next trip already.
