About this property

The home is near popular west-side shopping/restaurants, IL State Fair Grounds, Knights Action Water park, and easy highway access. The house was completely remodeled in 2019 with lots of updates and modern touches! We especially love the brand-new kitchen, bike trail access from the yard, and quiet neighborhood. This was our family home, and we are excited to share it with you.

Excellent home away from home

We were in Springfield with family for my mother-in-law's memorial service. This home was perfect for our family...my husband and I, our son and his daughter, and our daughter & her family. It was clean and comfortable! It allowed us to be together and catch up with each other. The neighborhood is very walkable, which was nice. The kids enjoyed the basement play area. We appreciated the extra bathroom downstairs! We made popcorn one night (there was a popcorn maker for the microwave). We didn't do much cooking, but ordered pizzas from a nearby Papa Murphy's and baked them at the house. Every thing we needed was there. The home is thoughtfully decorated and equipped. It has a very peaceful atmosphere, which we appreciated. If I could suggest anything to our lovely hosts, it would be to add more coffee mugs, a set of measuring cups, and a dish rag or sponge for handwashing items at the sink. But, really, the home is great, and exceptionally clean and well taken care of! The beds and pillows were very comfortable. I can recommend this home & the hosts in every way!

Long family weekend

My husband, our 5 girls, my parents and I all stayed at the property. We enjoyed the stay with being centrally located to many things as well as the girls having toys in the basement to play with. There was plenty of room for all of us to spread out or be all together.

This was our first Vrbo and it was beautiful!! Very up to date, clean and comfortable.

Our family of 6 stayed 3 days. Very close to a variety of things to do and restaurants. It was very nice to have a back yard and table to sit at. The accommodations for a large group was prefect. Only suggestion is adding a half bathroom downstairs.

Clean and cozy

Short stay for a wedding. Home was very clean and cozy. Could have used a lamp, tv in bedroom or basement and extra coffee pot in basement due to having another family for privacy but not a big deal. Really liked everything.

Clean Comfortable house

The property was clean and just as advertised. The additional 4th bedroom downstairs worked well for our group. Made use of the grill and outside table. Found Angela responsive and nice to work with. Angela is newer to VRBO so had to work through a couple issues and found security deposit higher than past rentals. This is an inviting house that we would rent again.

2 month stay for medical work

I stayed at the Archer house for nearly all of dec and jan in 22/23. It was the perfect spot for me or any small family, and a perfect choice for prolonged stays if you're in town for traveling nursing or other medical position. Super quick drive to the hospitals, but a great little neighborhood with access to all of the restaurants, shops, etc. The house is really nicely appointed, clean, functional, and quiet. Absolutely no complaints at all during my two months. Owners were very quick to reply to any questions and were so accomodating to my needs. If I'm ever headed back to town a 100% chance I stay here. thanks!

Hi! I'm Angela. I host several homes across platforms for long-term travelers and working professionals. Having a well-stocked home that's clean and comfortable is our top priority.

Reach out to me with any questions.
Thank you!

Why they chose this property

This home was completely remodeled in 2019 as our primary home. This isn't a normal rental property, and you'll notice a lot of upgrades! We love the hardwood floors, the kitchen and bath upgrades, and the neighborhood is one of the best in Springfield. You'll feel like you are in a small-town subdivision with friendly neighbors, quiet bike paths, and slower traffic yet you are located in the heart of the bustling city. It's pretty neat!
