The place was so unique and wonderful. Love the way it was set up so comfy and cozy! There’s perfect places for parking. Little details throughout every part of the home made it so exciting! 4 generations rang in the new year and celebrated the goodness of God in this awesome home!!!

We were in town to visit family, great location walkable to downtown. House is functional with nice extra touches like stocked coffee and essentials. Huge parking area which was nice when typically you have street parking.

We are happy you were able to enjoy your stay, our large private parking area, and the downtown Edwardsville area. We wish you wonderful travels ahead.
This house is perfect for a a family stay in Edwardsville! The kids loved their bedroom with their little beds and "hidden door". They also loved all the board games to check out. The kitchen had all the supplies we needed to be able to cook and the beds were so comfy! Would definitely stay here again.
We enjoyed everything about our stay! The house had everything we needed, the beds were super comfortable, we enjoyed all the board games, and our girls LOVED the upstairs bedroom! We would definitely stay here again.

We very much enjoyed our stay at this adorable property. Very well furnished everything you need and we even had a special treat of delicious cinnamon rolls left for us on the kitchen counter. If we are ever in the area again we would definitely stay here.
The Seedling was simply perfect for our family to attend a wedding. It was beautifully decorated, well stocked and perfectly located. The host was very responsive. Highly recommend.
The location of the house was perfect for our stay. It's a cute house that's nicely decorated and very clean. I had great communication with the host, and they went out of their way to ensure our safety during a really stormy and potentially dangerous night. We would definitely recommend staying here!

This owner asked us to pass along the following response: "Hi Nancy, thank you for your kind words! We're glad you enjoyed the home and found the location convenient. We’re sorry the weather didn’t cooperate during your visit. Hopefully, next time, you’ll be able to explore more of the area. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back in the future!"
What a cozy home. Christmas decor made it even more cheerful and inviting. Clean and roomy, Perfect location. We truly enjoyed our stay and definitely plan to be back. Thank you to our wonderful hosts.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Seedling. It is impeccably clean and in a great location. It is within walking distance of downtown and very close to the major shopping and entertainment of Edwardsville. The communications from the property manager are awesome. We loved the decorations and the peacefulness of the area.
This place is absolutely incredible, it is SO cute. It was so clean and tidy. My husband and I and 4 other friends stayed here since we all came from out of town for a wedding and it was such a great stay. The communication was top tier and the hosts went above and beyond to make sure everything was good for us.

We had an amazing time! The house was wonderful and we couldn’t have been happier. Location was great! We were able to so wedding prep on Friday and have a nice place to hang out and relax between events. Flawless transaction!!
We had guests visiting from Michigan and used The Seedling property as our base of operations. We explored Edwardsville and the surrounding area, much of which was walkable. We loved our time at this property! It was very cute and had plenty of space for two couples and one child.
The Seedling, was such a an incredible find for our family’s weekend stay! The location, the home, the decor, all *chef’s kiss*! It’s walkable to downtown Edwardsville, less than 10 minutes from SIUE’s campus, and great access to nearby suburbs. Definitely recommend this home AND checking out Sacred Grounds for a great cup of Joe/breakfast and Ed’s Delicatessen for a delicious lunch option.
We love the location of this property. It’s a beautiful neighborhood with walking distance to dining and entertainment. The house is fun to check out. You can see the history of how it’s been updated yet, flooring and other details have been untouched. We spent more time at the home in the evenings -vs- going to the nearby bars. We enjoyed the setting that much. We will be back.
