We reserved this beautiful family home while attending a family wedding in the Springfield area. It proved to be a real treat: conveniently located to the wedding venue and downtown Springfield, but also to Fellows Lake where we spent an afternoon hiking and birding on one of the trails circling the lake. The house was quiet, comfortable and homey (like a stay at your grandparent's house), and we loved the mature trees that lined the property. Nicholas was a friendly and communicative host, checking in with us during our stay. We spent most of our time at the house around the dining room table catching up, or birding on the grounds. Unfortunately, it wasn't pool season. Perhaps next time.
