A great place to get away (but have everything you need!)

This property was great for our crew of 6 adults, a toddler, and a baby, but would also be fantastic for larger groups! No matter the size of your group, there is plenty to spread out and not feel like you're all on top of each other! Everything you could need is there, which makes for a laid back trip!

Great family time!

My sister’s family and mine get together for Christmas every year. So finding a place that can accommodate us can be challenging. This place was perfect! The kitchen was stocked with ANYTHING we could have ever needed! We had plenty of room to spread out and play games or whatever we wanted! We enjoyed the ping pong/pool table, the kids enjoyed the PlayStation, and the guys enjoyed the garage area! There was a supply of children’s toys that was awesome! The only thing I can say negatively about the space was that the bedrooms were really small so if you have pac-n/plays to set up, you might need to do some rearranging. We would come back here again!

Perfect setting

Everything about this property was as described. Very clean, a ton of space, surprising amount of amenities available - pretty much every kitchen item you could need. The property is in a very secluded area which was exceptionally peaceful. We were there for a 25th reunion for a group of high school friends, this property would be great for a large coordination of friends and family.

Such a great place!

I promise you no one had regrets staying here. Very beautiful open layout, so much room for a huge family to come stay. Fishing, campfire and lots of room to play outside activities. The property owner was very easy to communicate with especially at check out. We loved this place.

A beautiful hideaway in mid-Missouri

Tucked away among the gently rolling hills of north-central Missouri, this beautiful property was perfect for our family get together. With tons of space, beautifully furnished interior, and lovingly stocked with every convenience, we wanted for nothing. My only wish is that we could have stayed longer!

Great for a Family Reunion

This property was exactly what we needed for our annual family reunion. With six bedrooms (all virtually identical, so no fighting over who got which) and two full bathrooms, we had plenty of space. And the fully furnished kitchen was great. Our hostess even let us eat any food that was there (including a bottle of wine). The youngsters had fun playing in the sandbox outside and the loft inside. And the walkers in the group made the rounds of the onsite pond, as well as a nearby rock road.

Graduation stay

We had 11 family members stay for a graduation in Kirksville. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and well outfitted. The host communicated very well with us and answered any questions quickly. We would stay again.

Wonderful weekend with family and friends. Wonderful time had by all.

It was a wonderful, out of the way, place with a great atmosphere. The facility was very clean and well decorated with plenty of room for all the guest with a wonderful kitchen to work in. Beds were very comfortable and rooms were very well stocked with pillows and blankets. We had a wonderful time and will be using the facility again. Thank you Nancy for your hospitality you thought of every thing.

Way out in the country retreat

This is a good value in that it has 7 (small) bedrooms at a modest price, and a large central room for everyone to play and converse in. The setting by a pond and rolling hills is relaxing. There is a large lawn and some trails around the two ponds. The kitchen was well stocked, in addition there were generous decorations (rural/country themed), a pool table, ping-pong table, toys for young children. The negatives: there is only a small dining table. Given 14 people (at least) could stay here, this is awkward. The outside picnic table is also small and in need of repair. The floor plan design of the house is utilitarian, but a functional space for a large group. This is really out in the country. That makes for a "get away" experience, but also difficult to access supplies (there is a modest grocery store 25 minutes away). The hostess was friendly and responsive.

Siner Family Vacation

We had a great time as a family at your ABNB. The open space was great. The kids loved fishing and swimming in the pond. Plenty of space to ride their bikes and scooters. The kitchen is set up very nice to cook and serve our group of 15. You had plenty of games and toys for all. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Nancy is the hostess with the mostess

We had an amazing stay! Nancy was such a great host! My mom, three sisters and 6 kids had the best time! The kids stayed in the loft which was perfect! Each of us girls had our own room. The kitchen was amazing! So big and beautiful! The kids fished and had plenty of room to run. The camp fire and smores were the perfect way to end the evening. Nancy thought of everything and was very attentive.
