We had to travel last minute - 2 adults and 2 teenagers. The house was super convenient with a great set up to give everyone room to spread out and have their own space, and also a great living room set up for us all to hang out together. Everything was clean, beds were comfortable, the kitchen was stocked with all the essentials, and the area was quiet. Steven provided us with information in a timely manner and was very responsive. We’d definitely stay again in the future.

Girls trip and this spacious house with two great showers/bathrooms had plenty of room for us. Location was perfect for us to try different restaurants, shopping areas, and sight-seeing stops. We used the rocking chairs on the front porch every day!

We thoroughly enjoyed this stay. A quiet country setting, but minutes from many of the Springfield sites. But what made it truly special was the responsiveness of our host. He was able to take care of a special request for us within a couple of hours of our initial ask. Steven was always friendly and even cleaned up the drive after stopping by when he noticed it had debris from overnight winds and rain, Would stay again.

Just what we needed!

This home is perfect for events at the Illinois State Fairgrounds. We stayed there for a national sheep show we were attending. Easy trip to and from the fairgrounds. It was a HOT week and the house was a cool oasis, the hot tub was so nice after a long day on our feet. Lots of restaurants and grocery options close by. Comfortable beds and a safe, quiet neighborhood. We were there on the Fourth of July and enjoyed fireworks from the front porch. Absolutely plan to stay again if we are in the area.

Beautiful and Comfortable

This neat, clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated home was perfect for our family while we were in Springfield for a family wedding. Kitchen appliances as well as washer and dryer are new, clean, and work well. The furniture is comfy and very nice. The fenced-in backyard was great for our dog to run around in. The home’s location was perfect for us, as we could easily drive to see friends and family, go shopping, and do some sightseeing. We would definitely stay here again, and highly recommend it.

Very nice

We came to the area to attend a Celebration of Life for a very dear member of our family. There was plenty of room for us. The home is just as pictured and located on the far west side of Springfield. Close to restaurants and shopping. Home has a large bright nicely stocked kitchen including all kitchen utensils one might need for cooking, a laundry area just outside the kitchen with washer and dryer. The home is older and has been remodeled with nice decor and was quite clean. Would definitely rent again if back in the area.

Fit our needs perfectly

Unfortunately, we were in need of a rental for our mother's funeral. We have a family dog so needed a pet friendly rental. This was a perfect solution. It borders a lovely neighborhood and has a fenced in yard so Jax could get outside. It was much better than having to navigate a hotel stay. family dog so needed a pet friendly r

The house was very nice. Just a little bit of tiding up in the yard. Branches all over it. Spiderwebs in the corners outside. lots of them and they were big. Towels were excellent. However, there was only 1 washcloth. Coffee bar was so cute but only 4 cups. beds comfy. We did have alot of gnats inside. Could not open the windows because screens were torn and let bugs in. Overall a very nice place but a few not so nice things as well.

Family trip for History and fun.

Only 2 draw backs for us. 1. No front porch furniture. It rained the first night and the kids had the living room TV and there was no place for the adults to go because the back isn't under cover, so we were all in the kitchen. 2. There are only 4 chairs in the kitchen and there were 6 of us, since NO ONE is ever allowed to eat anywhere other than the kitchen it was a little tricky. Otherwise everything else was perfect.

Springfield and Lincoln Land Visit

The Archer House is located within 15-20 minutes of all things Springfield, Illinois. It is located across the street from a subdivision of nice homes which we saw on a long walk one evening. We were able to visit the Lincoln home, walk to the train depot, stay a long time at the Lincoln Museum, tour the Dana Thomas House and dawdle at the Lincoln New Salem site (30 minutes away at Petersburg), and walk Washington Park. We also made many other short stops at downtown places. We enjoyed several great restaurants within a short distance from the tourist sites. We did this without hurrying - all in three days. The home has good sleeping accommodations for 6, and our 7th person slept on the couch - comfortable, but not a pullout. The two bathrooms (one ensuite) worked out well with our group of seven - three couples and a single adult. We would recommend this home to anyone wanting a clean, quiet and safe place to stay while visiting the historical sites. We thank our hosts for providing a nice place to stay and listening to our couple of recommendations to make their home even more appealing to the next guests.
