The entire home was very comfortable, clean, and inviting. The hosts have thought of everything to be gracious and accommodating. Three of us traveled from Ohio to meet up with our adult son living in another part of MO. I wanted to make meals at the house and had such a wonderful kitchen with ample space and impressive kitchen appliances. An added bonus was the friendly goose who would come up to the house and visit with us when we were out back. We all felt very much at home the 3 nights we were there.

It was beautifully decorated, very clean and had ample supplies. We stay in vacation rentals a couple times a year and this one was by far the best. The kitchen was fully stocked and included coffee, creamer, bottled water and snacks. The bathrooms had ample plush towels and extra supplies. They even supplied extra items in the Landry room. You don’t need to bring a lot like you do with other rentals. The property manager was very responsive. And the location was so beautiful with the pond and deck out back. Highly recommend for small groups! ##### Jennifer L.

Was a great location for that. The property was very clean and the house itself was great! I didn’t realize the property was on a lot with another house directly behind it, using the same driveway. I also was not impressed with the “backyard oasis.” There was a motor for the pond that was constantly running, the gazebo over the water had duck poop everywhere, and the pond itself was very lacking compared to the pictures online. There was a dog roaming around that belonged to the house on the same lot, although friendly, I feel should have been mentioned in the listing. It was a great location and in a nice area. There was an issue with the refrigerator while we were there and the property management group was quick in responding and fixing it. ##### Madeline L.
