About this property

Modern Like New LUXURY 3,200 SQ FT Home In An Awesome Location! Sleeps 12!

My home is close (within a few minutes) to Washington Park, Restaurants and Dining, White Oaks Mall, Memorial & St. John's Hospital, State Fairgrounds, historic downtown and Abraham Lincoln Museum/Library, Tomb, Law Offices and Old State Capitol . You’ll love my home because of the neighborhood, the Loom & Leaf organic memory foam beds (superior to Tempurpedic), the fully equipped and stocked gourmet kitchen with modern high end appliances, the coziness, three levels for privacy including home entertainment system on lower level. My home is good for couples, business travelers, and families including children.

This is my personal vacation home and is optimally furnished and equipped for the entire family, bring your clothes and toothbrush, everything else is provided beyond your food and beverages! The Loom and Leaf mattresses fare far superior to Tempurpedic and other cheap uncomfortable mattresses most others and hotels use. They cost up to 1,000% more than the cheap mattresses so most do not pay the extra cost. Two sets of modern new washers and dryers plus fully equipped kitchen to cook gourmet meals.

The neighborhood:
Super high quality homes and neighbors, very safe, lots of trees, very quiet neighborhood with lots of places to ride bikes and walk. 3 - 10 minutes to most all places I listed in Springfield IL for things to do, Lincoln attractions, historic downtown, dining, mall, etc.

Getting around:
Uber and Left are quite active in Springfield and provide excellent quick service I have personally used them. The SPI airport has flights from Dallas or Chicago via American Airlines. The STL airport in St Louis is a major international airport with non stop flights from most major cities and is only a 1.5 hour drive. I often fly into STL and rent a car there. SPI airport has rental cars also.

Guest access:
100% access including garage.

Interaction with guests:
You are welcome to email or call or text my cell for any problems, advice or questions, I grew up in IL and know they area very well.

Other things to note:
I have extra beds in basement bedroom they are fold away foam mattresses, this foam mattress is far more comfortable compared to air mattresses and has its own support frame so you are not sleeping on floor. I have also now purchased two additional (three total) fold away foam mattress twin size beds so 12 can sleep comfortably in Home. The master is a king size bed, three bedrooms have queen size beds. A twin size bed has been added to basement.

Perfect location in beautiful neighborhood

This is an awesome location for conveniently getting to everything around Springfield while being a nice family neighborhood. The house felt comfortable with tons of space. Cleanliness was not what we’re used to at rental homes where we usually stay and many parts felt well-worn, so not especially the “modern like new luxury” stated in the title. This is more like stepping into someone’s vacation home while they’re away which was very nice and comfortable for us but don’t expect perfection in the way we have often become accustomed to in many vrbos.

Spacious home

We appreciated all of the space and many bedrooms. Although the weather was rainy and we couldn’t use the yard, it looked like a huge space and nice deck. The basement was another nice place to hang out. Some of the basic essentials like more hand soap we didnt see was available. We would recommend this property and stay there again.

Although the home was nice, it was not "Like New" or "Luxury". The layout of the house and the many bedrooms with queen beds met our requirements. There were plenty of bath towels provided. The kitchen was well equipped, but not "gourmet". There was a nice new deck. The AC worked pretty well. Definitely needed fans in some of the upstairs bedrooms that did not get adequately cooled.Overall our biggest issue with the house was "cleanliness" and general upkeep. There were 10-12 bags of smelling garbage in the garage when we arrived. Although the owner contacted his neighbor to come to remove it, we should not have had to deal with that. There were also fly contact paper on the floor in the Living room in 2 corners of the room that appeared to have been there a while based on the number of dead bugs on them. We had to close off that room because we had a baby that was crawling. The family room sofa is badly stained-should be professionally cleaned or covered. There are stains on the carpeting on the stairs. There were permanent stains in some of the toilets.We have rented many homes through VRBO and have never had this kind of experience. This is a beautiful home. It is a shame that there is not more attention to upkeep and ensuring visitors arrive to a clean home!

Phenomenal Springfield Home

Great large home with an abundance of rooms and sitting spaces for large or small groups minutes from the fairgrounds. Clean, comfortable, and all around wonderful for those looking for a stay in Springfield. Neighborhood is nice and we felt very safe. We look forward to staying here again if we find ourselves in Springfield again.

State Fair

We state here while our kids were showing their cows at the state fair. This house was a perfect location for an easy drive to the fairgrounds everyday. We didn't get to spend a whole lot of time at the house but it was a very nice house. Would definitely stay here again.

The only improvement we would suggest is the deck. Nails are lifting and the extreme slant of the deck was dangerous for our 80 year old parents.

We had a wonderful time!

We really loved the property, and loved how quiet the neighborhood was. We're only in town twice per year to study with our mentor, so we're gone the entirety of the day, and it was nice to come back for a good nights sleep. At first we couldn't find the extra beds but Wayne was very responsive and let us know where they were located. The shower in the master bedroom caused quite a stir at first, being that there is no door to the bathroom and when you enter you see a glorious shower with no privacy 😂 We called it the "Exhibition Shower" and either sent a text to our housemates or announced when that shower was available,

Roomy Property

Four senior couples stayed at this VRBO for 5 days/4 nights. We loved the size of the home which gave us plenty room to enjoy our visit while in Springfield. The large kitchen and dining room gave us opportunity to prepare several meals and enjoy breakfasts every day. The family room and living room provided separate spaces for women/men visiting and TV watching. Sitting on deck was pleasant. Only negative comments are the front door handle needs to be repaired (we taped it with masking tape), the deck is in need of repair and the house would be much better if it were significantly updated.
