Springfield, Missouri
Quaint renovated bungalow located just one and a half blocks from the campus of Missouri State University. Only minutes from JQH arena, Springfield Cardinals Baseball and downtown Springfield, which features a variety of restaurants and entertainment. Within two miles of Mercy Hospital and three miles from Bass Pro.
Originally built in 1915, it has two bedrooms, one bath with a comfortable living area. Larger dining area with seating for six. Claw foot tub with shower, King Bed in Master, trundled twin beds in second bedroom. There is a high efficiency washer and dryer in the basement.
All old homes are quirky, and remind us that life was much different 100 years ago. Bedrooms are small and living is close. Doors creek and don't always shut; everything has been painted four or five times. But that's what gives these homes their charm. Sleeps 4 in beds. There is a couch in the living area, but it does not fold out, and we don't recommend sleeping on it. Gas stove and small refrigerator with breakfast nook for two. Large fenced backyard with plenty of space to play and a deck with a fire pit for nice evenings outside. Hi-speed Internet (3mb^/3mb). 42 inch smart TV over gas fireplace offers access to Netflix and the internet. Gas fireplace is fickle, so it's best not to count on it.
Hardware floors throughout, lots of natural lighting. A very comfortable place to relax and unwind, or enjoy watching cars pass by while on the front porch swing.
This is an ideal place for a small young family of four. If you need space for more than five, please search VRBO for something larger. Also we do not rent for parties, and request that all renters staying in the house are related. It costs a bit more than other rentals because we use the space as our own get-away, and we are looking for renters who are more interested in quality than the lowest price. At this time the only discount we offer is reflected in the weekly rate. We also have a strict no pet policy and a strict no smoking policy (no smoking in the house or outside--if you are or someone in your party smokes, we kindly ask you to make other arrangements for lodging. If you have a service animal, please contact us to see if our home is suitable for your needs). Also, as a vacation rental, we do not offer extended stays--nothing longer than 10 days.
Covid cleaning includes a deep disinfection with Ozone Gas. Ozone is a natural way to kill 99% of bacterial and mold. However, it is not safe to be in direct contact. Therefore, we allow at least one day between all guests to allow the half life of the gas to dissipate to safe levels. This time interval also allows a quarantine time for the house to be ready for your use before you arrive. Also, because offering this rental is not our primary job responsibility, having the bungalow cleaned in a timely manner can be challenging. If the dates that you desire bump into another guest, this is especially true. This is one reason that we do not have instant booking, as there are times that we may have to refuse a booking because we can not have it clean for you in time. Thanks for understanding.
We had a great time. The place was spotless and in the perfect location. We hope to stay again. Thank you!!
Great place for the weekend!
Great
Great place to stay when visiting MSU! Comes exactly as advertised. Will be staying again
Good weekend stay. Water pressure is low but it’s an older house so it’s expected. Easy check in and good location.
Celebrated my wife’s birthday by taking a trip to Springfield, MO. This bungalow was in a great location and we had quick, easy access to Springfield’s attractions. Loved our stay here and will definitely stay here again.
The bungalow was perfect for our needs. Our two kids shared the second bedroom. We liked the porch swing, selection of games, and location! The check-in process was easy and we encountered no problems during our stay.
Very cool house! Came exactly as advertised. The quirkiness of older homes is what gives them their charm and character. Well stocked. Close to MSU. Safe area walking distance to restaurants and brew pub. Will definitely stay again
Loved our stay.
Nice bungalow, convenient location, easy check in/out. This was my 2nd stay & would consider it again, if the need arises.
Stayed near campus and it wasn't noisy. Great location to attend events at the college. Close to other site seeing adventures. Loved the house and property manager or owner were great communicator.
2nd time staying here. Such an adorable little cottage house. Had everything we needed.
Perfect place for my husband and I to stay while we visited our daughter! Close to everything, clean, great communication, and loved all the character to the house! Would definitely stay again!
This was a nice house, the host is super friendly and responsive. Will definitely stay there again.
Lovely, quaint 2 br home. Nicely appointed with many extra conveniences for renters. Tea Bar & Bites restaurant in walking distance was nice lunch treat. Probably very busy if MSU in session.
Very nicely nice and conveniently located.
Great place with a beautiful maple tree in the front yard that provided an amazing splash of color on our fall, weekend getaway.
Pros: Really enjoyed the convenience of the location to MSU. It wasn't to loud. Kitchen wasnt super big but was just find for a weekend away. The cottage had lots of games to enjoy and a cool fire pit in the back. Could walk to Panera and other restaurants very easy. Cons: Not really set up for senior citizens. My mother in law couldn't use the tub because it was a claw bathtub. Also recommend placing slip proof for little throw rugs.
Cute house in suburb location. Near food and drinks within walking distance. Very clean house and nicely decorated. Had fun exploring the city; history, Rte 66, Crystal caves, haunted Castle, beautiful parks and you must eat at the Peruvian Cafe!
I really liked this house, it was clean and the property was great to work with. The location was fantastic for out purpose. The biggest down fall for us was how load the traffic is, especially at 2:00-3:00am. Motorcycle traffic was the worst, the house can use some updates in the kitchen and bathroom, but it worked great for us and was reasonably priced.
I loved my stay! The house is extremely cute and the location couldn’t be better. I will definitely want to stay here again.
Darling house, has everything you need! Perfect location- walking distance to great restaurants and shops. Beautiful back yard and cute front porch swing. Would definitely stay again!
Nice well-maintained circa 1900 2 BR house was perfect for our needs while attending wedding in Springfield. Enjoyed neighborhood walks, glider on front porch, dining room, breakfast nook, living room, and private back yard. Selection of games entertained son and grandkids who visited that morning. Internet is slow, but 5G coverage is excellent.
It was close to Missouri State University and convenient for our graduation.
5 stars
House is in a great location. Close to all the Manson downtown and MSU sites. It was a bit noisy on Saturday night being on cherry street. Big yard.
We traveled from WI to attend the weekend baseball games at the University and were very happy with this home. The house is comfortable for 3 adults and the location is awesome. We loved the different places to eat just a few blocks from the house. It was a quick and easy drive to the baseball stadium. Really enjoyed our time in the Bungalow.
My best friend and I met in Springfield for a girls weekend. The house is in the sweetest neighborhood, has the perfect front porch & backyard. It is clean, comfortable beds, the owner is incredibly responsive & accomodating. 100% reccomend. We will definitely stay again!
Cute little bungalow in Springfield. Mom and I had a great time and really enjoyed the back patio area! Owner is very kind. Definitely recommend this place!
