About the host
Hosted by Jaci Martin
My husband and I fell in love in Springfield, MO. We lived in LA for a few years, then returned and fell in love with SGF all over again! We poured our hearts (and a lot of sweat!) into our 120+ year-old house, turning it into a fun, quirky home. When we upgraded for our growing family, we made our first home into the kind of stylish, convenient Airbnb that we’d love to stay in on our own travels!
We are locals and passionate foodies, so don't hesitate to ask us for recommendations on the best places to eat, things to do, and hidden gems around Springfield. We offer a printable digital booklet with our favorite local eats, coffee spots, shops, and attractions delivered digitally before check-in to help you plan your stay. We love helping our guests experience the city like a local!

Why they chose this property
The West Central neighborhood is Springfield's most walkable neighborhood, just minutes from downtown! We are centrally located in the heart of Springfield, so we are close to everything - universities, shopping, restaurants, event centers, hospitals, attractions, and the airport. Yet we are still tucked away on a quiet street. We loved living here for nearly two years.
What makes this property unique
Our 2-bed, 2 bath home built in 1901 combines modern comforts with colorful boho flair to give that home-away-from-home feel. Guests love it for...
- Easy to explore downtown, even by foot! (We are in Springfield's most walkable neighborhood)
- Kid-friendly features like toys, games, dinnerware, highchair & childproofing
- High speed Wifi & dedicated desk for remote work
- Relaxing fenced backyard with beautiful landscaping, a large deck with dining space, a grill/smoker combo, and a firepit with s'mores supplies!
- Personal, homey touches (we used to live here!)
- Thoughtful recommendations from locals (we'll send you our printable guides to help plan your stay!)
