Warm and friendly place to stay
When I opened the door, I immediately felt like I was home. My sister said, "I could move into this house. Everything you need to make your stay comfortable. The bedroom decor was very peaceful for sleeping, the main area of the house was truly "family" style, the patio was inviting for conversation. If this house is available when I go back I will try to reserve it.

Nice Quiet Neighborhood
The house was clean and very nice. It had a lot of kitchen essentials, including coffee and creamer, which was very nice. Good assortment of kitchen pans and perfect for a family brunch. The only complaint I have, I am assuming the owner can do nothing about. Their is a fenced of utility property behind the house, as well as several neighbors with a very bright light. The porch would be much more enjoyable at night without that light, but as I said nothing you can do about it (legally LOL) I recommend for nice quiet stay in a safe neighborhood.

Spring Break Trip
Our trip to Sherrie's Home Away from Home was amazing! Sherrie is a wonderful host. Sherrie is easy to communicate with and very responsive. Sherrie is thoughtful and considerate of others. Sherrie goes out her way to make sure her guests can have a stress free time. Her home brought our trip to a full circle after much planning and preparation to go there. Her place is very clean, comfy, in a friendly neighbor, not far from stores and restaurants. Everything was perfect! I will definitely book with her every time I visit Missouri. You will not be disappointed booking with her. She lets you know how thankful she is for booking with her. She even adds a bonus to show her gratitude with a thank you note and a bottle of wine! Thanks again for everything, Sherrie!

This house is spotless, comfortable, and stocked by the owner with so many necessities and comforts of home. It is in a quiet, friendly neighborhood that is close to everything you need in Nixa. The owner is very responsive and helpful. Our favorite thing about this house is the beautiful deck in the back yard. We felt very welcomed and comfortable. There are so many great amenities. We love this property and the owner!

Perfect!
There were four of us who stayed in this home; and there was nothing any one of us had a complaint about. Booking, access, communication with owner, all easy. House was exactly as stated in listing. It was clean and had extras that many other places don't provide, such as shampoo, laundry soap, paper towels, etc. Snacks left by owner were much appreciated. Instructions upon leaving were easy enough to follow and no problem. Owner was always quick to respond. Would recommend this home and look forward to returning when we visit family.

Nice stay!
House was as described! Bedrooms got super hot at night, we purchased a fan and that helped! I was shocked that the cleaning fee was almost the same price as one night stay. If I would have known ahead of time, I would have picked another locations because we were instructed to take the trash out, wipe off counters, and collect all the towels before leaving. So I’m not sure what the cleaning crew does. Good location though, nice neighborhood, the wine and coffee was a great touch also!
