About this property

Charming Bungalow In The Heart Of Springfield

Quaint renovated bungalow located just one and a half blocks from the campus of Missouri State University. Only minutes from JQH arena, Springfield Cardinals Baseball and downtown Springfield, which features a variety of restaurants and entertainment. Within two miles of Mercy Hospital and three miles from Bass Pro.

Originally built in 1915, it has two bedrooms, one bath with a comfortable living area. Larger dining area with seating for six. Claw foot tub with shower, King Bed in Master, trundled twin beds in second bedroom. There is a high efficiency washer and dryer in the basement.

All old homes are quirky, and remind us that life was much different 100 years ago. Bedrooms are small and living is close. Doors creek and don't always shut; everything has been painted four or five times. But that's what gives these homes their charm. Sleeps 4 in beds. There is a couch in the living area, but it does not fold out, and we don't recommend sleeping on it. Gas stove and small refrigerator with breakfast nook for two. Large fenced backyard with plenty of space to play and a deck with a fire pit for nice evenings outside. Hi-speed Internet (3mb^/3mb). 42 inch smart TV over gas fireplace offers access to Netflix and the internet. Gas fireplace is fickle, so it's best not to count on it.

Hardware floors throughout, lots of natural lighting. A very comfortable place to relax and unwind, or enjoy watching cars pass by while on the front porch swing.

This is an ideal place for a small young family of four. If you need space for more than five, please search VRBO for something larger. Also we do not rent for parties, and request that all renters staying in the house are related. It costs a bit more than other rentals because we use the space as our own get-away, and we are looking for renters who are more interested in quality than the lowest price. At this time the only discount we offer is reflected in the weekly rate. We also have a strict no pet policy and a strict no smoking policy (no smoking in the house or outside--if you are or someone in your party smokes, we kindly ask you to make other arrangements for lodging. If you have a service animal, please contact us to see if our home is suitable for your needs). Also, as a vacation rental, we do not offer extended stays--nothing longer than 10 days.

Covid cleaning includes a deep disinfection with Ozone Gas. Ozone is a natural way to kill 99% of bacterial and mold. However, it is not safe to be in direct contact. Therefore, we allow at least one day between all guests to allow the half life of the gas to dissipate to safe levels. This time interval also allows a quarantine time for the house to be ready for your use before you arrive. Also, because offering this rental is not our primary job responsibility, having the bungalow cleaned in a timely manner can be challenging. If the dates that you desire bump into another guest, this is especially true. This is one reason that we do not have instant booking, as there are times that we may have to refuse a booking because we can not have it clean for you in time. Thanks for understanding.

Great house in an incredible location.
The house was very clean and had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend. The king bed was comfortable. We did not use the second bedroom but it looked like plenty of space for two people. The dining and family room areas were large with ample comfortable seating. The location was perfect for walking to nearby cafes and bars. The owners were great about communicating information prior to arrival. We will definitely stay here again in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Thomas & Sarah Jones

Host profile image
We purchased this home for our personal use when we stay in Springfield, but realized that we didn't use it as much as we thought we would. We have several rentals, but this is our first try at Vacation Home renting. Over the last 10 years, we have used VRBO for our personal vacations, and enjoy staying in a nice home rather than a carbon-copied hotel room. We wanted to see if being a VRBO owner would be as nice as being a VRBO user.

Why they chose this property

The downtown-MSU corridor is the nicest part of Springfield--with its older homes, large trees and vibrant atmosphere, its close proximity to downtown and arts, there is a real sense of community in this area. That's why most of the VRBO rentals in Springfield are located so close to one another.

What makes this property unique

A nice blend of old charm and modern accessories.
