Quiet Country Setting 5 minutes from town

How about a quiet get a way from the hustle and bustle of life? Or a place to kick back and relax while traveling across the country? Or even just a place to come with your friends and hang out for a few days? You’ve found the perfect spot! Located on 3.5 acres in the country within 10 minutes of Interestate 57. Conveniently located within 15 minutes of Rend Lake Resort and golfing. 10 minutes from the town of Benton and 3 minutes from Benton golf course. This spacious house comfortably sleeps 9. Cook you and your family a lovely meal in the fully equipped kitchen, relax in our spacious living rooms and enjoy a game with your buddies, then drop into our luxuriously soft beds and enjoy a comfy night of sleep! And when you arise, make yourself a cup of coffee and sit on our large deck and enjoy the wild life. Watch the birds in the trees around the house, or the white tail deer in the field across the road. And if it’s your lucky moment, you may even see a huge whitetail buck! The red foxes are even known to run in the area! And if you feel like having a family outing... take about an hour and half drive to Sikeston Missouri and enjoy a meal at Lamberts ( Home of the Thrown Rolls) or take an outing to St. Louis Missouri and visit the Arch or enjoy several hours at the Magic House ( hands on children museum) Or even within 10 minutes of Whitetail Acres, you can enjoy antique stores or the old jail house museum. And don’t forget to check out Scooters coffee shop while your at it!

Great value
Quiet, peaceful location. Lots of room for the kids to play both inside and outside. We made good use of the firewood and firepit. Really good value for the price. It was the perfect place to get together with family and watch the eclipse.

Yes, I would stay again.
This house was perfect for my family's needs. The location could not have been better. Quiet and peaceful. The rooms are big and we had complimentary beverages left for us. We took use of the fire pit, as a time to catch up. Firewood was supplied by the homeowners. Each room has its own thermostat. A very nice feature. The house was very well stocked, (cookware, glassware, silverware). Other than the hot tub not being there, everything was perfect. Thank you for letting us stay in your house. We look forward to Christmas 2024 and doing it again.

Off the beaten path
This was off the beaten path, which was perfect for our needs. It was peaceful, plenty of room, and well kept. I was surprised how fast some of the trucks went down the road, but it wasn’t often, it just surprised me. Overall, it was a nice place to stay. We would stay here again. :)

Family Get Away
We were visiting friends but wanted our own space and this location was great for our needs, just outside of town. Very quiet, loved the farm fresh eggs and other items in the fridge. Nice touches with throw blankets on the couches, nice selection of toys for the little ones and plenty of space for 5 adults and 4 children. Only one large window air conditioner unit for entire house, a few extra fans to distribute the cool air would have been beneficial. Would definitely stay at this property again!

Nice place
This location was clean and spacious. Plenty of room. Would be nice to have a tv there. Recommend putting house numbers where you can see them. Also would have been nice to have the check in information a few days earlier.

Another Awesome Stay
We used this same property a year ago and it more than met our needs. We enjoyed the stay so much that we used it again for this year's adventure to Rend Lake. The remodeled patio and firepit were a nice and used improvement.

Had fun doing both golf and fishing as the weather cooperated nicely. Adding central air would be a good choice for next investment in the property.
