Very responsive host and an accurate listing of the property. The location was so convenient for us to walk to the all the popular attractions, including an excellent bakery. The beds were very comfortable and the extra space of the house was a great benefit. We would definitely recommend this place to our friends.

Adorable house in an excellent location in town. I noticed that the communication was odd, maybe AI? We had directions about a dishwasher and meanwhile we didn't have a dishwasher. The toilets were a little slow, but it's an old house. Beds and linens were comfortable. The parking lot is shared with the house nextdoor.

Charming Carriage House

The carriage house was just right to transport us back in time while we visited historical sites such as the Lincoln home.museum and the Dana Thomas Frank Lloyd Wright house. It was clean and well provisioned. Would stay there again.

Historic Charm with Modern Convenience

We loved staying at the Carriage House. It met my family's needs perfectly and the location was close to restaurants and attractions like Lincoln's Neighborhood. I highly recommend this property if you're looking for somewhere to stay other than a hotel and be close to downtown in Springfield.

CCC - Charming, Comfortable and Clean

The Carriage house was perfect for our stay in Springfield. The location just blocks from Lincoln's home and neighborhood allowed gave us the opportunity to walk over and "pay him a visit". The house provided everything we needed for our stay - all the comforts of home in a beautiful historic setting.
