This unique house began as a duplex in 1958 but midway through building became a single family home. Since 1958, the house has had two owners, both within the same Nicholson family. It has 4 bedrooms and two baths with large living space in the middle of the house. It is situated on a corner lot with a front driveway and a back driveway. The back entrance is handicap accessible and one bathroom is also handicap accessible. A nice brick patio in the backyard allows for grilling, dining alfresco and relaxing under large trees. The house has floor to ceiling windows in the east living room which allows the morning sun to make the room warm and cozy. This house is perfect for families, couples, family reunions, or girl-friend get-a-way weekends.

    The home is a former duplex that is expansive for our family. Lots of room. Storm thru the night and our cars were safe in the two carports.

    We have stayed here several times, we love the house. Family geared! In fact I was bring things in as I entered the living room my grandchildren were playing on the floor, ages 3 & 7, 7 year old “I love this house, I wish grandma would buy it”, the 3 year old “I love it too, I have stayed here before, so fun.”

    This house was so great for our family. We were able to stay together comfortably without renting multiple motel rooms. Plenty of area to socialize but everyone still got their own bedroom. The house is cute, exactly as pictured and very clean. We hope to stay again!

    Exactly what we needed as a homebase for events in the area for our group of seniors. Several very comfortable areas encouraged our group activities and conversations. Kitchen had all we needed for food prep. Great local area for walking.

    My son and I stayed one night while fishing area lakes. The car port was a great place to park the boat and re-charge the batteries.

    We SO enjoyed our time at Sunshine. There is plenty of space to spread out and hang with family. The beds are comfortable, and it was nice to have wings to the house with two bedrooms and one bath each. It worked great!Our host was very responsive and helpful. I appreciated having a few welcome snacks and some bottled water. The TV has Roku access but not cable. There are LOADS of DVDs available to have a movie night (and popcorn to make, too!).It was just what we needed to gather before and after a family wedding. Thanks for having us!

    I'm traveling back to Ellis frequently for family affairs. This was the first time I stayed at the Sunshine House. Stayed there with my brother and sister-in-law. The house is layed with bedroom areas are on each end, so we had privacy and didn't disturb others. This house has a ton of character! There was a cozy living area we had late night conversations. We didn't use the kitchen but it looked adequate with plenty of supplies. If you visit during nice weather the patio area looks inviting. It is an older home but was very clean. I would stay here again.

    Stays like this are what I love about VRBO. Not only is the property an amazing time capsule but the host graciously considered even the small comforts. Plenty of room to spread out, comfortable beds, lots of thoughtful details. I can heartily recommend staying here and would do so again.

    House was clean however TP supply, dishwasher soap, and paper towels were not adequate. Had to purchase locally. Cooking skillets need updating. Better organization of kitchen supplies. Overall though a very nice place to relax after a long day in the field chasing whitetails

    You could feel the family vibe as soon as you got there. You take you stuff to your bedroom, then everyone just meets in the family room and you just relaxed into conversation. Kids started playing on the floor, we popped in a movie and just enjoyed being together. I recommend it.
