We were delighted with The Bressmer. The ground floor is very large with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a game room, a writing room, full kitchen and dining room. The rooms are beautifully decorated in Victorian style. We felt so special staying at The Bressmer we didn't want to leave.

Bressmer Ground Floor
Every member of our party was delighted to step into The Bressmer ground floor and discover all the historical details. It felt like we stepped back in time but had all the modern conveniences. We especially enjoyed the pump organ. Thank you for clear directions & communication. Would love to come back and check out the other floors and the carriage house.

Super stay in Springfield
My colleague and I made this gorgeous house our home away from home while attending a conference in Springfield. We loved all the beautiful furnishings and features of this historic house, and appreciated the modern kitchen, wifi, and TVs as well. Although other guests were staying on the other floors, we heard very little and found the house and neighborhood to be peaceful and quiet. We highly recommend this VRBP property!

Beautiful historic mansion!
The home was incredible and just as stated in the description. Ample living areas, bedrooms, and bathrooms, plus many creature comforts and period decorations in every room! This historic mansion was a treasured place to live for a few days. The owners/managers were very kind and friendly, too!
