About this property

The Dryer House - A Charming Restored Home in a Walkable Neighborhood

A stay at The Dryer House is meant to feel easy and unhurried from the moment you arrive. You will pull into a quiet tree-lined street and step inside a home that feels warm and lived-in, and quickly settle into a comfortable rhythm. Mornings often begin on the front porch with coffee watching the neighborhood come to life or taking a relaxed walk to Pickwick Place for breakfast. During the day the home offers inviting spaces to read, work remotely, or simply unwind, while evenings are perfect for cooking a meal, relaxing near the fireplace, or enjoying time outside on the porches or fenced backyard. Whether you're traveling with a dog, visiting family, or just needing a peaceful place to slow down, the home offers a sense of comfort and calm that makes it easy to feel at home rather than you're just passing through.

The property was amazing and the host was even better! The landscaping, the exterior decor, the interior impeccable and warm. This is by far the best vrbo we’ve stayed in. Couldn’t recommend this place and host enough.

Hands down the best property we've stayed at in Springfield and maybe anywhere. They've thought of EVERYTHING! The yard and back porch are heaven. Cant wait to come back- seriously was hard to leave! Thanks Libby for the amazing property!

Absolutely beautiful and immaculate inside and outside! All the amenities anyone could ask for and things no one would even expect. We only stayed one night but would have loved to enjoy the place longer. Would definitely recommend it and look forward to a longer stay.

About the host

Hosted by Libby

I'm Libby, a Springfield Missouri native and owner of The Dryer House. I live next door with my 3 friendly, well mannered dogs. I spent 36 years as a professional horse trainer and riding instructor, working primarily with Arabian and Saddlebred horses. During those years, I traveled extensively to horse shows with my dogs and learned firsthand how difficult it can be to find a comfortable, welcoming place to stay when traveling with pets. That experience shaped how I host and why The Dryer House was designed to be a calm, dog-friendly space for both people and pets. The home is thoroughly cleaned between every stay, with extra care taken after pet visits, so guests without pets can enjoy a fresh and comfortable stay as well. I love hosting and take pride in offering a comfortable, well maintained home where guest can truly unwind.

Why they chose this property

I chose this neighborhood long before The Dryer House became a short-term rental. I bought my own home next door 27 years ago because I've always loved this area - the tree lined streets, walkability and sense of community which is what truly sets this neighborhood apart. It's the kind of place where neighbors and the Springfield community gather for a Halloween parade. Horse drawn sleigh rides through the neighborhood during the Christmas season. Each June, the area comes alive with the Pickwick Street Fair, celebrating local businesses, art, food, and music. Just a short walk away is Pickwick Place, with locally loved restaurants, shopping and breweries. It's lively yet peaceful neighborhood that feels welcoming, walkable, and genuinely connected - which is exactly why I chose to live here and why sharing it with guests feels so special. Creating a short term rental here was truly a natural extension of choosing this neighborhood for myself.

What makes this property unique

What makes The Dryer House truly unique is owner-cared-for rather than simply overseen. This isn't a high turnover rental or a managed property - it's a carefully restored home next to my own, in a neighborhood I've loved living in for years. When I remodeled the home, I didn't design it as a rental - I designed it the way I would want to live in it myself. Every choice was made with design, comfort, functionality, and livability in mind, creating a space that feels natural and genuinely welcoming rather than staged. Guests appreciate the private setting, the character of an older home, and the feeling of staying somewhere that is genuinely cared for rather than simply rented.
