We were driving cross-country from Michigan back to Tucson & needed a place to stay near Springfield. I investigated all the b&b's there but this one seemed nicer by far than any in the city, so I booked it. I'm glad I did. The grounds are gorgeous. The owners have done such a great job transforming the landscaping. There's a beautiful vine-covered gazebo to sit under, another roomy ramada with porch swing, a fish pond with waterfall, fountains, caged birds, all kinds of pretty places to sit & things to look at. We were in the most private accomodation, the Prairie Suite above the garage in the back. The decor was lovely, the room was large & comfortable. There is a mini-fridge, a large jacuzzi tub in the corner surrounded by windows, a fireplace you can turn on by remote, a nice separate bathroom. Our only problem was that there wasn't adequate hot water in the bathtub, but afterwards in the shower there was plenty. The next morning we got up & I opened all the blinds to take in the beautiful surroundings. We were there in summer & it was like being in a treehouse - greenery everywhere you look. The breakfast was delicious - we had specified vegetarian & she came up with some gourmet concoctions! We didn't want to leave. We had never been to Missouri before & this gave us a great impression of the place. After breakfast we walked 2 blocks over to the little town square & the replica of the Hubbell telescope. An interesting thing the owner told us was that all Marshfield's significant buildings & nice old houses were wiped out in a tornado in the late 1800s - so what you see, including the Dickey House, was all built starting in the 1900s.

This is one of the best in MO. We have be going for five years and they get better each time. The breakfast are out of this world and the friendly service is awsome. The house and cottages are romantic and cozy and oh so special. This is one you just have to experience to know you will be back.

From the evening we arrived, that ended up being a spur-of-the-moment late arrival (which they warmly accomidated us,along w/ warm Blueberry bread & coffee/hot tea). To the morning we left we had a completely relaxing & wonderful time! We will be back & we have recommended this B&B to all...
