Exactly what my family needed for a quick stay in the Springfield area

Great house, clean and updated. Very quiet neighborhood. If ever in the area, will absolutely stay here again!

Probably will be a regular spot for us when we visit Springfield. Even our small kids loved it there. Just the board games and puzzles they had kept them entertained. It's a great location too. There are family homes right next to you

This house was fine for what we needed — a place to sleep close to family. I’m not sure I would call it a “retreat” as it’s just a house in a neighbourhood. The backyard is spacious, but there's something that looks like a well cover right in the middle of the yard, and there were what looked to be wires coming out of the top of it (we didn't investigate).The kitchen has reverse osmosis water for drinking, which was a pleasant surprise and not something you find in many rental houses. We found the beds to be some of the most comfortable we've used in VRBO properties. We do not like soft, squishy beds, and these were not that. They were supportive but not hard.The cleanliness of the bathrooms left a bit to be desired. The master bath had a distinct urine smell, and there was visible pink mold in the shower. The other bathroom smelled as well. One of the light switches in one of the bedrooms was broken with a small piece of metal exposed. In order to get the light to turn off, you had to squeeze this piece of metal while sliding the dimmer to the bottom. Touching metal on a light switch is a bit concerning. We didn't really use the kitchen much as we were with family for most of our visit, but there is a Keurig for coffee, and there were plenty of plates and such. Overall, it was fine for our needs, just nothing special.
