Wonderful place

The view was great of the lake. The house was clean and comfortable. Great communication with Sandy. The half bath toilet needed a little cleaning, but it wasn’t too bad, we handled it. I would not hesitate to recommend staying at Effie’s!

Weekend Late Summer Getaway

If you want the quintessential vintage TRL home feel with modern amenities, then you will love this home. Nice neighborhood, quiet and secluded feeling, awesome lakeview and feel, very clean, and pride of ownership shows. We just loved this place and Sandy, the owner, was so nice and accommodating for anything and everything. We'd definitely rent again! 5 stars all around for us!

Can’t beat the amazing view and accommodating hosts!

This is the ultimate couples stay. The large screened in porch has a beautiful view and is a great place to share coffee or wine. Although it is a one bedroom it is an entire house to yourself. You are greeted by the host herself and find she has left snacks, water, coffee and other items typically not found. She and her husband were more than accommodating! We will definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by Sandy

Host profile image
I truly enjoy meeting new people and learning their stories. I grew up in south-central Kansas and moved here from western Kansas. I'm an enthusiast of antique furniture and vintage jewelry, and have a shop here in town where I feature my favorite finds. You're probably wondering about the name. Effie is what my uncle called my mom. My mother thought this was such a beautiful place to live, so to honor her, our family decided to name it Effie's.

Why they chose this property

The Crestwood West neighborhood is clean, quiet and close to everything--the grocery store, Dollar General, hardware store, salons, boat ramps, etc.

What makes this property unique

When people walk into Effie's they often say they can immediately feel that it's special. It's designed to be a peaceful getaway for two. It's clean, has unique furnishings and a fabulous view of Table Rock Lake. The home provides privacy, for example if one of you wants to take a nap and the other wants to watch TV. And it has tinted windows in the front for privacy and empty lots on either side so you can see other homes but feel like you're in your own little world.
