Countryside Escape

This house was amazing...very quiet and clean! There are a lot of fun things to do around the area! The town has a great public pool and even an old time drive in theatre. We had a great time with our two kids and they loved all the space as well! We highly recommend checking this place out and we will be back!

A gem on the prairie

We had a lovely visit to a great little cabin! Everything is available with a well-stocked kitchen (even coffee grounds), extra bedding, etc. Deb even provided an iron and ironing board when we needed it. Very clean and well-organized. We had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend it.

Fun country Oasis

What a cute little place for our 2nd Annual Girls New Year's Eve outing. This place had everything we needed. The water went out while here and the owner came over to see if we needed any. Loved all the vintage items. My daughter loved the 1988 JcPenny catalog. JcPencatacacatalog

An amazing place to stay!

I cannot say enough good about this property. It was clean. It was peaceful. Had everything you needed and more for kitchen items, towels, blankets, bedding. The bed was comfortable. The host was very welcoming and helpful. We tried to book again as soon as we left, but it was already booked out. This place was an amazing find. We will be coming back

Perfect for the mobility impaired

I traveled to the area for a family reunion but struggled to find accommodations that met my physical needs. I have one leg that is semi paralyzed. When I found the Little Country House, I struck gold. The house has close parking, a zero step entry, and a low entry shower with seat. The house, bathroom, and doorways are large enough to accommodate a wheelchair. It even has pocket doors, you don’t have to avoid the swing. Everything about this place was ideal for me. Thanks, Deb!

Peaceful getaway

I spent a peaceful and relaxing weekend at the Little Country House. Deb and her husband were wonderful hosts! It was a beautiful little home - new appliances, clean and modern decor with a country feel, fully stocked with everything you’d need in the kitchen and bathroom, and a comfortable and cozy bed. Outdoors there are comfortable rocking chairs and a nice fire pit area with lights. I came here for a weekend alone, but it could definitely host a family as well. I would highly recommend!
