Quick stay in Casey

We stopped in for 1 day. The town of Casey is fun. This property is only about a 10 min walk from main street and directly adjacent to a great park. The house has easy parking, a nice front porch, spacious kitchen and living room, and a 3 really nice bedrooms.

Home Away From Home

We were only here for an overnight on our way across the country, but the house was fantastic! The kitchen was beautiful, and the whole house was so comfy & cozy - we felt right at home as soon as we walked in the door. Lisa is a wonderful host, and communication was clear & prompt. It was an easy walk to see all of the Big Things & have dinner in town. Thank you so much for a great stay!

Loved Casey

My sisters, niece and I came to see the BIG things in Casey, and even though there was a lot of walking involved and we had a golf cart it was an enjoyable experience for our 1st trip. The rental was a great fit for us all and would love to visit again sometime, when we have more time. Thank you again Lisa

Fun Evening in Casey

We booked our stay in Casey the last night of our Colorado trip so we would be about an 8 hour drive from home. Casey was a surprisingly fun place to spend an evening. Casey has a number of “the world’s biggest” items including the world’s largest mailbox that you can go inside. We had a lot of fun going throughout the town discovering these largest things and taking pictures. The house met all our needs. It has a large porch to sit on and is across the street from a park. We greatly enjoyed our stay.

Cottage by the Park

From the moment we walked through the door at 500 East Monroe Ave we felt the warmth of this home. We were immediately at ease, as if it had been an old friend welcoming us back home. Thank you for every little nuance of this rental to make a warm and welcoming place to stay. At every turn there is a saying or sign about Family, Friends and Togetherness!! We throughly enjoyed our stay, and if and when we return we will definitely stay here. Bo & Judy Bosarge-Biloxi, Mississippi

Fantastic property exactly as listed! Perfect location for the wedding we attended in nearby Marshall (15 min away), and the option to rent the golf cart was a fun way to get around town to see the BIG things. Lisa was the perfect host in close comminication through the entire process. Highly recommend!

Our trip to Casey was short but sweet! Lisa's property is perfectly located across the street from a beautiful park and close to the "big things". The house was very clean, had all the amenities we needed and you can even rent the golf cart. We were lucky enough to have a storm roll in so we got to sit, watch and relax on the porch.

Park like setting/Small town charm

My husband and I took a short trip to Casey to visit this quaint little town with the Big Things. While we were there, we enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. Lisa was so quick to respond to any questions we had. The home was very clean and roomy. We loved sitting on the huge porch, watching and listening to the birds, squirrels, and other little animals hanging out in the yard and in Fairview Park. The park is right across the street and has a nice big pond where some people were fishing, and it had a big playground with lots of little ones enjoying it. It also has great walking paths that we took advantage of while enjoying the beautiful weather. When we went into town, we got a map of where all the Big Things are located and started our hunt. There were 35 items (some in town/some in other local areas). It was a lot of fun! We enjoyed a couple of the local restaurants Richards and Crazy 8 BBQ. Love the peanut pie at Crazy 8s! Already thinking about visiting again in the Fall.
