The nationally acclaimed Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum are located in Springfield, an easy ten-minute drive through rural vistas. While here, visit Lincoln's Home National Historic Site, Lincoln's Tomb, the Lincoln Depot, Frank Lloyd Wright's Dana Thomas House, and more!

You'll also find 'Smart' outlets in the kitchen for device charging, Google Home technology throughout the home, and a completely renovated bathroom, with an LED shower tower boasting five, multi-function body jets, a handheld showerhead and rain head for the ultimate shower experience. The living room hosts a sleeper sofa, recliner and chaise lounge, fireplace, and a 52" smart TV with live streaming. In the summer, a large yard, nightly viewings of deer in the back pasture, along with the coyotes and owls serenading and fire-pit access makes for the perfect country experience!

The fully-equipped farmhouse kitchen design features brand new, stainless-steel appliances, including a dishwasher, a custom coffee corner, with a K-cup/coffee pot combination, electric can opener, cookware, food storage options, barware, dishes and flatware for 12 and more!

Perfect home away from home! Was a great place to be outside of the city bustle. But close enough to enjoy any thing within city limits. We really enjoyed our stay. Check in was a breeze, and check out requirements were clear and easy to understand.

Perfect place in the country
Exactly as described. Check in was so easy. It was clean and well organized. We had everything we needed. We stayed with extended family and spent most of the time either in the kitchen or by the fireplace. Excellent communication with the owner. Our dogs loved being out in the country, it was pretty perfect and will stay again
