A very nice and neat home. Loved staying there. The only problem we had was the freezer was only an ice cube maker. Had to eat ice cream immediately (darn!).

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. After a long day biking the Katy Trail from Boonville, it was a perfect place to stay. All of our needs were anticipated. Very thoughtful, thanks.

Loved the aesthetic! Also appreciated the accuracy of the listing, that the property was very clean and comfortable and that it was a quick drive to Mizzou for graduation. Oh, and the owners were very quick to reply to questions! Thank you!

My kids and I needed a home away from home for a few days. This was perfect, and we definitely felt away from the world but yet still able to access places if we wanted. Loved our stay!

This property is such a fun place to stay for the weekend. It was exactly as seen in the online photos and clean with easy check in process. The location is nearby the places we planned to visit including the Capitol building. If you have children don’t miss the chance to visit nearby Community Park; an awesome playground unlike any we had visited in other places. Two suggestions for making things a bit easier in the house: hooks (coats near the front door, PJs or towels in bedrooms) and Tupperware or glass jars with lids for leftovers in the kitchen. I hope we can return again to this awesome property.

Stayed at the carriage house on a Mizzou visit weekend when Columbia hotels and properties were completely booked. Staying in Jefferson City was still convenient and a fairly quick drive to campus. Property is beautiful and well maintained - love the modern yet historical feel. Neighborhood was very quiet. Very close to the capitol, however the weekend we were there, it felt almost deserted. Only comments about property: lights in upstairs bedrooms were odd… when one was turned off the other room turned on which gave us a good laugh when going to bed one night. Would have loved waste paper baskets in bedrooms. Property was spotless except for a few items left in fridge drawers when we arrived. Property contact was responsive and helpful through the app for my few questions. Great stay overall, I would stay again.

The location was great for our tour at the Missouri State Penitentiary. The house was available on time and very clean. The kitchen is well stocked.

Property was very clean and we had a great stay! Owner was very responsive. Only suggestion would be to put a house number on building as the property was a bit hard to find at first. And maybe add some outdoor furniture on patio would be nice. Would definitely recommend and stay again!

We stayed at The Carriage House on our recent trip to Jefferson City. We toured the Capitol, the Missouri Penitentiary Museum, and did a late night ghost tour at the Missouri Penitentiary. The Carriage House was the perfect location. The house was very clean with great amenities. The only con was the heavy scent of laundry detergent. My husband is very sensitive to it. They might consider switching to a scentless detergent but other than that it was perfect. I would stay here again.

I was in town for a friend's wedding and had a great stay at The Carriage House at Parker's Place. It was quiet and clean. It was also near most of the attractions in the city and centrally located. Overall, I would definitely stay again when in town.
Easy parking off the alley and nearby neighborhood is nice with historic houses.
My only complaint, and this is relatively minor, is there was no closet to hang clothes. Typically, I don't need this when traveling, but I didn't have a good place to hang my suit while I was there.

We had an Amazing time!!!
As our 13 year old grandson said, "We had some much needed quality time together."
The home was Spectacular and Clean, very clean.
Fresh and very comfortable bedding, Huge Plus!!!
The feel of being at home but unplugged from the World...literally. We loved that we could cook together and all hang out at the same time.
We will do this again!!!
