This was one of the cleanest, most well equipped vrbos I have ever stayed in. The hosts had so many extras like a coffee bar, spices, and condiments available to use. The house was so clean and welcoming. I highly recommend this if you are looking for a place close to the lake or need a great place to stay in Monroe City. If you are a light sleeper I do suggest earplugs or a noise machine due to the proximity to the railroad tracks.

Super cute! Really impressed with the conviencence of the items they supplied. Small quiet neighborhood but with trains in the backyard which we had no problem with it and it wasn't loud inside. About 20 minutes, from Indian Creek Marina. Cute town in close proximity to Hannibal MO.
