Gather used towels

Turn off the lights

Please gather all trash (don’t forget the outside barrel) and haul it up the hill to the barrels there as you leave.

Please do not strip beds. It is much easier for me to check for stains or worn areas when they are still spread out on the bed. Please gather all used towels and pile them on the laundry room floor.

Please return any moved items to their original spot.

Failure to complete these may result in a negative review from the host.

The house was everything as promised in the description with lots of extras. We were there for the weekend for a wedding. It offered plenty of room and extra space so you dont feel over crowded. The pingpong/pool table was a hit and the family voted to go back for another weeknd and just hang out there so we are able to fully enjoy it.Nancy was great at communication and made you feel welcome! A visit at Nancy's place feels like home.

What an absolute perfect place in the middle of no where!!! Clean, spacious, and decorated too cute. Owners communicated well and checked in and out were super easy. House was located by a pond and the sunset was beautiful! A GREAT location to get away from the world and enjoy a peaceful get away. Will definitely be back!

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!

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.

Even better than expected! Very clean and well stocked. The older grandsons (age 9 and 6) had an absolute blast playing ping-pong and playing the piano. Took a nice long walk around the pond and had a fire in the fire pit. It is really out in the middle of nowhere so bringing food and cooking is a must. We thought the squeaky beds would be uncomfortable, but we all slept exceptionally well. No complaints! Will stay again! Host was wonderful, quick to reply to texts.

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!

Graduation stay

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.
