We unplugged from life for a few days and found this location to be relaxing, comfortable and a great 'home base' as we explored rural Missouri. Drove beautiful countryside to go to parks and wineries within an hour drive (always one of us as designated driver - please don't minimize the dangers of driving rural highways under the influence!). The pictures are accurate, the deck was a lovely place to drink coffee in the morning or adult beverage at night, listening to the sounds of nature, including the cattle mooing in the field across the road. Hardly any traffic sounds, even though the house is located at the intersection of a rural highway and the road to the entrance to the Edg-Clif winery. Edg-Clif is approx. 1/2 mile very easy walk from rental to their outside patio. Had a nice time, super friendly owners, small band played great music, loved their beer and wine. You bring your own food to this winery, I don't think they serve any food at all, they are open 12-5 Friday-Sunday only. Doug is very responsive and leaves clear instructions/information about the property. Would be a great spot for a small group who wants to walk to a winery/microbrewery. House is well supplied with everything except Kleenex. Only suggestion is to bring cushions or beach towels if you are going to sit on the deck very long - wood slatted deck chairs are pretty uncomfortable. Great outdoor table seats six, and two lounge chairs, plus small table/two chairs at the front door to watch sunrise. We always have beach towels in our car (for our dog), so we wrapped pillows in those to use, which was much more comfortable. A great spot - thank you Doug for your hospitality!
