Sister’s Birthday

Me, my daughter and 2 little grandsons had the BEST time visiting my Sister and Family. Miss Sherrie’s Home made it feel just like we were home, she was so kind and helpful. We only had 1 full day for the grandkids, the other day was for my Sister’s Birthday, but we went to Buc-ee’s, then to the Wild Animal Safari, the drive through and the animals come to your car, they loved that! We made Tic Tok videos later! lol The Dickerson Zoo is nice, of course the Aquarium and Bass Pro, Fantastic Caverns too! Oh and Incredible Pizza, the kids love it! Our visit was Great! And Miss Sherrie was wonderful to work with! Lord willing, I’ll do it again next year!

Spring Stay

We came for a wedding and wanted to stay near family and town if possible. The house was only 15 min from other family members and restaurants. The house is well cared for and has a nice deck to sit in the am. The bedrooms were very nice and the walk in closet was great for getting all of our wedding attire ready. We used the kitchen a little. It was nice and easy to get in the door and lock it as we were leaving.

Quiet & cozy getaway with access to Branson and Springfield

The home was very well appointed and decorated, in a location within a stone's throw of Springfield and Branson, but just enough off the beaten path to find quiet respite while visiting family over the holiday season. The surrounding neighborhood was likewise quiet and well-kept.We especially enjoyed all of the tasteful holiday decorations as we were traveling over the Christmas season; it was a nice touch which really helped us feel at home.

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!
