Great for a Family Reunion
This property was exactly what we needed for our annual family reunion. With six bedrooms (all virtually identical, so no fighting over who got which) and two full bathrooms, we had plenty of space. And the fully furnished kitchen was great. Our hostess even let us eat any food that was there (including a bottle of wine). The youngsters had fun playing in the sandbox outside and the loft inside. And the walkers in the group made the rounds of the onsite pond, as well as a nearby rock road.

Wonderful weekend with family and friends. Wonderful time had by all.
It was a wonderful, out of the way, place with a great atmosphere. The facility was very clean and well decorated with plenty of room for all the guest with a wonderful kitchen to work in. Beds were very comfortable and rooms were very well stocked with pillows and blankets. We had a wonderful time and will be using the facility again. Thank you Nancy for your hospitality you thought of every thing.

Way out in the country retreat
This is a good value in that it has 7 (small) bedrooms at a modest price, and a large central room for everyone to play and converse in. The setting by a pond and rolling hills is relaxing. There is a large lawn and some trails around the two ponds. The kitchen was well stocked, in addition there were generous decorations (rural/country themed), a pool table, ping-pong table, toys for young children. The negatives: there is only a small dining table. Given 14 people (at least) could stay here, this is awkward. The outside picnic table is also small and in need of repair. The floor plan design of the house is utilitarian, but a functional space for a large group. This is really out in the country. That makes for a "get away" experience, but also difficult to access supplies (there is a modest grocery store 25 minutes away). The hostess was friendly and responsive.

Siner Family Vacation
We had a great time as a family at your ABNB. The open space was great. The kids loved fishing and swimming in the pond. Plenty of space to ride their bikes and scooters. The kitchen is set up very nice to cook and serve our group of 15. You had plenty of games and toys for all. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Nancy is the hostess with the mostess
We had an amazing stay! Nancy was such a great host! My mom, three sisters and 6 kids had the best time! The kids stayed in the loft which was perfect! Each of us girls had our own room. The kitchen was amazing! So big and beautiful! The kids fished and had plenty of room to run. The camp fire and smores were the perfect way to end the evening. Nancy thought of everything and was very attentive.

Wonderful Graduation Weekend
The property was a perfect location for graduation celebration and activities. Just about an hour from Kirksville, we were able to host extended family and friends for the Truman State graduation weekend. The place was perfect for cooking dinner for a large group, the fire pit was awesome as well as the pool table, ping pong and games! Thank you so much for the wonderful stay.

Our Best Experience Yet!!
We had the most amazing weekend getaway with everything we could have asked for and more! Nancy was the most wonderful host and provided us a beautiful home and property filled with everything you could want or need for creating both indoor and outdoor memories! We caught over 30 fish and played so many fun games!! We have stayed at a handful of Vrbo properties but this was hands down our best trip and experience so far!

Family Friendly
Our group ranged in ages from five years old to 86 years old and this home was a perfect fit for everyone! When the weather was inclement, no problem! The huge indoor gathering space and abundance of toys allowed for numerous activities for the little ones: playing school, riding small people toys, and reading books. Pool table, ping-pong table, and games provided indoor entertainment for the adults of all ages. When weather was pleasant we walked the mowed trails throughout the property enjoying the ponds, grasses, and trees. The fire-pit was perfect for enjoying s'mores! There were zero steps or tripping hazards for the one person with bad knees. The kitchen pans bowls and utensils were clean and in very good condition. The bathrooms were clean and well stocked with towels, wash clothes, soaps and shampoos. The beds were comfortable with plenty of quilts and pillows. We visited the very well furnished Prairie Trail Museum in Corydon Iowa about 30 minute drive to the north, which was closed for the winter, but they happily opened it when we made arrangements in advance. The kids enjoyed ringing the big bells outside the museum. We also visited the Museum of Osteopathic Medicine in Kirksville Mo, which was a little smaller and catered to those interested in origins of Osteopathic medicine. We went out to eat at the Square View Dinner in Unionville, which had very friendly staff and very reasonable prices for made from scratch meals. We highly recommend this VRBO. The Host, Nancy Halferty very much desired for us to enjoy ourselves, answering all our questions with small town hospitality! If you desire a place with indoor space and outdoor space for quality family time, this home will fit your needs!
