Property location was awesome, house was awesome, house was fully stocked with everything you could possibly need, was greeted with muffins and fresh cut flowers from owner/host, and owner/host was, as you can imagine, awesome!! Perfect rental for our stay
5.0 / 5.0
Our stay was great. We loved the outside seating area and even though you can hear the highway traffic it is in a beautiful secluded area and right next to everything you need.

Lisa, the homeowner, started our stay off with donuts and muffins. That alone set her apart from other places I’ve stayed. She also took the time to show my kids and my mom how to play pool, even playing a round with my daughter.
The house is so beautiful! My favorite place is the front porch. The couches there were perfect to read or watch a storm from the safety of the car port that protected the area.
Both my mom and I were blown away by all the little things she thought of, including treats for any fur babies we might have brought. It really felt like home! We plan on staying there again when we visit our family again.

Everything about this house is great. From the gorgeous porch to the doughnuts that were so graciously left for us. Perfect driving distance to Branson, it made for such a great time. Thank you for everything!

This property was a great place for us and our son and his family to stay. It has several areas to sit in and we loved that it was within walking distance of the Nature center.

The little blue house was just what we needed for our week long stay in Springfield. Literally at the entrance to the nature preserve on a quiet fed end road, with a fenced backyard. The owner had many thoughtful touches like fresh flowers, games, little candies, and sidewalk chalk for my kids, and a platter of doughnuts upon our arrival! Plenty of beds (both full size beds were pretty creaky, but serviceable) and linens for all of us. The house is kind of a unique time capsule. It is close to every attraction in Springfield and only 40 minutes or so from Branson. I would recommend this house to anyone wanting a nice place to relax and spend time in this area.

The Blue House, My team and I had an amazing experience, I took my 7v7 football to Springfield for a tournament and lucked up and found this great place! Lisa was a great host and was available for whatever we needed. I recommend booking the Blue House for your next stay if you are traveling to Springfield or stopping through!

We traveled to Springfield for a Christmas get-together with our son and his family and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this unique and fun property. There were a total of 9 of us for our afternoon gathering and with the way the floor plan is layed out there was plenty of space for everyone to hang out and talk with some playing pool and darts and others at the dining room table, with still others in the living room watching the KC Chiefs on TV (which actually could be seen from all 3 areas). The home is kind of unique having several areas with one or two steps leading from one room to another, but that wasn’t a problem for us. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies and the bedrooms and beds were very comfortable and cozy. I love the covered outdoor living space and will have to come back when the weather is a bit warmer to fully enjoy it. Also, there’s a nature center with several miles of trails literally steps away that we didn’t have time for but can’t wait to return to check that out. Communication with Lisa the property manager was very responsive. I especially appreciate the level of cleanliness and detail she went to in having things ready for our arrival. She is super nice and even had muffins for us when we got there (which everyone devoured). I would highly recommend staying at this fun and unique property. I know we’ll be back!

The house was very close to restaurants and shops, and had some nice activities to do right in the house. The property manager was very friendly and accommodating. While the house itself did have some older parts, everything worked well and it was a great place to stay for our trip.

We love staying in this home when visiting Missouri. It has everything you need to entertain a family and has a cozy feel, all while being close to nature. We highly recommend staying here if you're looking for a peaceful stay with lots of space for games/family time!

Corky cute little house! Everything a family would need including a fenced in back yard for our dog Chopper! Great location and will return next year!
5.0 / 5.0
Lisa was a wonderful host! This place was super clean and had all the little extras you need. Our dog loved the huge fenced backyard with bunnies and squirrels to chase. My husband loved having the private master suite with NOT all white bedding and towels for once! We all enjoyed the pool table and games. The setup was perfect for a large extended family with plenty of privacy but also spaces to get together. I wish I had this beautiful patio at home to hang out on in the evenings. We'll definitely stay here again next year!

Perfect location! We were in and out a lot but great place to chill! Loved the big bedroom for our dogs and the patio and fenced in back years was a definite plus! Grilled out, fire pit, and conversation areas!
5.0 / 5.0
The property was unique and charming. The attention to detail was incredible with many nice extra touches! There was plenty of room for family members who stayed with us. It was also great for hosting family and friends for dinner after our daughters graduation from MO State. An extra treat was getting to meet the owner who was delightful!! We would definitely stay at this property again if we have a reason to go to Springfield.

We spent nearly a week at the blue house and thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor space and trails near the property. The house had everything we needed plus more! Lisa was a pleasure to work with, and we'll definitely be back if we're in Springfield again!

We absolutely loved this house and so did our dog Freddy! The "lanai" porch was fantastic, we sat out there and enjoyed a rainy Tuesday night. The owner Lisa leaves a small batch of muffins for her guests along with other amenities that make your stay just so much more comfortable. The back yard is fenced in so our dog could go out for a bit and just do his thing. This house was very cozy and the location was remarkable! It was so close to everything you need, food, grocery store, 10 to 15 minutes from the largest Bass Pro Shops in the world and 10 minutes from Lambert's Cafe located in Ozark. We highly, highly recommend this property! You will love it too!
5.0 / 5.0
This was the perfect place for us to stay. We had everything we needed and more. We had to extend our stay by two days because of the weather and Lisa was very accommodating. We stayed comfortable and warm. There was just the two of us but there was plenty of room in case the grandkids wanted to stay. They came over and visited everyday to play pool. The fenced yard was awesome for the dogs. The home was very dog friendly. We can’t wait to come back when it’s warmer and enjoy the awesome covered porch. This is our new go to home in Springfield.

This property has been renovated very well and is in a great location to get around Springfield! We would love to stay here again in the summer. The kids loved the pool table and darts. My only feedback is that the pullout bed is pretty thin to sleep on.

The house was cute, the outdoor space was gorgeous, and the location was perfect. The property owner was so helpful and gracious.
5.0 / 5.0
The home was VERY clean and inviting. Lisa was the best host you could ask for. The home was wonderful and we absolutely loved making s’mores in the evening around a fire. Lots of sitting room and comfortable beds. Great location for activities and a safe space for our pups with the fences in yard. We WILL be coming back!
