Very cute bunkhouse. The perfect sized getaway for a couple. The mattress was a bit springy, though. The peacefulness was worth being outside of town. Ecologically speaking, their prairie needs work, though. Lots of invasive grasses.

Very nice and cozy cabin in the middle of a cornfield. This place is close to town but completely isolated. We sat on the front porch and enjoyed our morning coffee in almost complete silence. Not sure if this is the place for everyone, but it was perfect for us.

Little gem!

My 2nd stay! I stayed here about 6weeks prior, enroute to visit my daughter at Mizzou. It was so nice that I decided to stay again on my way to her graduation. It was perfect again! It was warm and beautiful in the morning so I even used the outdoor tub.

Beautiful historic gem!

One-of-a-kind! Historical studio tiny house! Even better than I expected, despite reading glowing reviews! Absolutely beautiful setting- hilly area, farm fields behind it. Very convenient & easy to get to. No close neighbors. House was super clean, very comfortable bed w/beautiful authentic quilt. I loved the stained glass windows! The coffee cake was a yummy surprise!

A Unique One-of-a-Kind Bunkhouse

What a unique gem of a cabin! Quite charming and clearly lovingly restored. It was absolutely perfect for an overnight stop. The bed was very comfortable and covered in a beautiful antique quilt! I loved the beautiful stained glass windows also. This is definitely one-of-kind B&B!! I recommend this tiny bunkhouse to anyone who wants a special weekend get- away from a busy tech filled week. And the cinnamon coffee cake was a delicious surprise!! I hope to stay again when I travel this way.
