The Vicky was a great house for our purposes — a large family gathering. The house is well-appointed and comfortable and conveniently located to downtown and various Lincoln sites.
The Vicky was an excellent rental for our large group. The house is plenty big and well equipped. Location was ideal for the state fair and other sights in Springfield. Brett the host was very helpful and had great communication. Beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were all updated. Kitchen was well equipped and a nice big refrigerator. We had a fun time in Springfield and where we stayed contributed to that.
Dated neighborhood, but clearly a ton of remodeling inside. Beds were very comfortable ... plenty of spaces on 1st and 2nd floor for a large group. As always, the tight correspondence and easy check-in/out always a plus.An all 50 group, we had fun with the retro arcades... and played a couple board games provided.
Had a great weekend; plenty of space for 5 children under 7 and 5 adults; kids liked game room and fenced back yard. Host responded quickly to any questions we had. Older neighborhood, but liked proximity to the fairgrounds, Lincoln’s tomb and downtown, etc!
Stayed in the "The Vicky" with my family and it was perfect. This house has alot of room and is the bedrooms are very roomy with nice size beds. Enjoyed our stay and would recommend.
Beautiful home that had plenty of space for our family while we were visiting the fairgrounds! The host was wonderful and has really thought of every detail throughout the home to make your stay feel just like home! Will definitely stay again when we are in town!
Our family of 5 adults & 4 children had a really fun time at the Vicky for a family reunion. Lots of room inside for everyone to have space. We appreciated the good communication with the host. The kitchen was well stocked as we cooked and made most of our meals there.
The property is in a good location. Closer to the Stare Fairgrounds than the downtown Lincoln sites. It is a little close to railroad tracks, so you will hear train horns. They did not bother us too much. A quiet neighborhood. We did not see too much activity around. Those we did encounter were friendly.The home is large. It also appears updating is still taking place. The bar area is nice. Bring your own vinyl records for a treat or a night of album party.However, if a sit down breakfast, lunch, or dinner is being planned. There is not enough seating in one room that could accommodate more than 6 people. That did not bother our visit, we had 6 people. There are small things that need attention, as there are in any vacation rental. Overall, we would book The Vicky again. Especially if you are attending the State Fair. You could walk to the entrance (1/2 mile). Spacious home, close to attractions, and a fair price.

Thank you for the feedback, Daniel! We have 2 six foot tables and chairs available as well for dinners parties upon request. So just let us know if you come to stay again and would like the those set up for you and thank you for staying at "The Vicky."
Our group chose Springfield for our annual beer trip. The house was the perfect size for our group. The beds were clean and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay.
We were impressed by the property's spaciousness, cleanliness, and ideal location, which perfectly suited our needs. Our host was also exceptional, providing us with a memorable experience.
Twice a year we come to Springfield for two days of education and fun. We are all in the same business as owners, so the space was great with ample rooms and bathrooms. We'll be renting it again this fall.
2 night stay.
Everything was as nice as described or nicer.
2 video games upstairs was a bonus.
Really enjoyed the space.
Will stay again when in the area.
The interior of the home was neat and clean. Everything we needed was provided. The yard nèeded to have the lawn mowed, but not a big deal. The owner was exceptional in his communication with us. So nice!
Great time! The property ad everything we needed. We needed to bake before meeting our family for Thanksgiving. My husband, kids and grandkids loved the space. Brett was a great host.
