This is a Springfield Gem for sure. Todd was quick with several questions we had prior to our stay. On the day of our arrival Todd was very helpful during the brief check in. The home is in a wonderful neighborhood. Well-kept home, and the hot tub was just what we needed. We had an excellent stay.

It was simply great staying here. We came down to look at MSU. Todd took his time answering questions my son had about the school and the neighborhood.

Great place! Very nice outdoor area! Great owner!

We couldn't have been more pleased with our stay. Todd's home is very charming, comfortable, and clean. He is an amazing host who goes above and beyond for his guests. The neighborhood is very quiet and safe, and super close to downtown Springfield. We have stayed at 7-8 vacation rentals in the last 3 years and this one ranks top tier!

You are asking me to summarize the BEST HOST AND PLACE WE EVER STAYED!!?? I guess I will try to keep it short. My mom, myself and my favorite aunt (mom's baby sister) stayed here. Second time for my mom and me. First time for my aunt. The first time my mom and I stayed, it was two months or so after my baby sister, Danielle, passed away after 18 month battle with cancer. She was 35 when she died. My mom was her nurse. This is after my mom had just finished being a nurse for my dad who had passed two months before my sister was diagnosed. We hadn't even cleared my parents house of the hospital equipment. So, understandably, we needed a moment. I had never stayed at anything but campgrounds and hotels but we needed peace and quiet to regroup because my sister also left 4 girls behind all under the age of 18. My mom was about to become a mom again and not just grandma. I looked at every property three times and finally just booked. Todd was gracious and helpful. He did not intrude on us in any way but also made it clear that he was available through phone, email, or in person whenever a problem came about. Of course, there was NO problems. He provided a great place for us to begin the healing process. Fast forward to a little over two years later, another trip planned but this one strictly for FUN!!!! Again, I inquired, immediate response from Todd with a yes and before you know it, three crazy ladies(?!) on Todds doorstep! BEST TIME EVER! Todd is the real deal. BOOK NOW!!

Great

Let me just say that I thought this would be an easy over night stay. To start, when we did not arrive at the time we thought, he began to scold me for being disrespectful because I did not make it by the specified time. I told him to just leave a key for us. He insisted he needed to give us "the tour". As I exited the car, he says, "Well Angela, I am beginning to wonder if you can even read." In hindsight, this is when I should have left. But it was a one night stay, and I thought I would not have to see him again. As we were touring the pool area, he says one of my friends may come over for drinks later, and asked if this was okay. We said ok. We were trying not to be rude. We proceeded to put on our swimsuits and have a couple of drinks. Todd was already at the pool when we got down there. Then he got in the pool with us!!!! After we got home from our concert we again went to the pool it was after 10pm, but he told us as long as we were quiet we could use it. We were talking, not laughing or yelling, he comes out of the dark where I guess he was watching and says "Angela you are being loud" which creeped us out, so went into the house to shower and go to bed because we intended to leave early. No laughing, yelling, music, or tv. In bed at 12:30, he begins banging on the door saying he is calling the cops because we are breaking the rules! We were SCARED! We were doing nothing! We called the cops to escort us to our car,left at 1am. This is not private, don't be fooled!!!

There are not enough words to describe our 5 star experience at this beautiful Oasis! From the moment we checked in, Todd met us and walked us through the property and expectations. The home is absolutely beautiful with comfy beds and the best accommodations. Cozy and quaint, this beautiful home provided everything we needed to rest and relax. Our family made memories that we will forever cherish. We enjoyed becoming friends with Todd and his fur baby Apollo. They went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and even gifted us a sweet treat which we all enjoyed. The deck and backyard where beyond stunning! We had everything needed and then some! You will not be sorry booking this home! Our family will be back!
