Such a charming home and perfect location for access to everything. We appreciated the extra oscillating fans (outside temps were warm during our stay) as AC distribution is as one would expect in an older home. A lot of thoughtful touches- extra towels, games, and nightlights. We would stay here again.

This house is perfect for a a family stay in Edwardsville! The kids loved their bedroom with their little beds and "hidden door". They also loved all the board games to check out. The kitchen had all the supplies we needed to be able to cook and the beds were so comfy! Would definitely stay here again.

Already looking forward to our next stay!

We love the location of this property. It’s a beautiful neighborhood with walking distance to dining and entertainment. The house is fun to check out. You can see the history of how it’s been updated yet, flooring and other details have been untouched. We spent more time at the home in the evenings -vs- going to the nearby bars. We enjoyed the setting that much. We will be back.

Edwardsville GEM!

The Seedling, was such a an incredible find for our family’s weekend stay! The location, the home, the decor, all *chef’s kiss*! It’s walkable to downtown Edwardsville, less than 10 minutes from SIUE’s campus, and great access to nearby suburbs. Definitely recommend this home AND checking out Sacred Grounds for a great cup of Joe/breakfast and Ed’s Delicatessen for a delicious lunch option.

Family wedding weekend

The location of the house was perfect for our stay. It's a cute house that's nicely decorated and very clean. I had great communication with the host, and they went out of their way to ensure our safety during a really stormy and potentially dangerous night. We would definitely recommend staying here!

Great Place to stay in Edwardsville

We really enjoyed our stay at the Seedling. It is impeccably clean and in a great location. It is within walking distance of downtown and very close to the major shopping and entertainment of Edwardsville. The communications from the property manager are awesome. We loved the decorations and the peacefulness of the area.

Staycation and Visit with Frieds!
