About this property

Quaint Guest Cottage

  • If you have ever dreamed of living in a tiny house, here’s your chance! Our small cottage is located in our beautiful backyard on a quiet street within walking distance to Truman State University. Although petite, it is delightfully decorated with family antiques and has all the desired amenities for a weekend stay. Newly renovated (foundation work with dehumidifier, new flooring, and remodeled bathroom) in 2024. Because of the size, the bed is just double (an original rope bed—made in the late 1700’s has been fitted with a double mattress). The kitchen is small but sufficient for light cooking. Please note: all the linens and towels are line dried. If you visit during prime flower season a bouquet of flowers from our garden will welcome you!

    Free off-road parking
    Free WiFi
    NOTE: this cottage is completely smoke free. No smoking of any kind is allowed in the cottage or on the porch.

We loved this charming little cottage! Remodeled and decorated beautifully. It was clean and the bed was very comfortable. Kitchen and laundry room are an added convenience in addition to walking distance to Truman State University.

This cozy cottage is lovely! It is peaceful and well decorated with sturdy antiques and thoughtful details. The kitchen and bathroom are small but are perfect for a restful get-away. There is stunning art and a small library with interesting tittles. This was my first stay but I am already planning a return trip.

Adorable cottage

The cottage was clean and very quaint. We stayed here for two nights and couldn’t have been more pleased with Lisa’s hospitality. The instructions were clear and the food recommendations were great. The decor was timeless, cozy, and well thought out! We would stay here again!

Quaintest Cottage Ever!

This is my favorite place to stay when visiting Kirksville. It is nestled in a quiet/safe neighborhood and walking distance to the Athletic complex on campus. It is so comfortable and relaxing to stay here. It's my last year traveling to watch college soccer; I am really going to miss this place!

This is a very cute place to stay, especially if you love antiques and history. A perfect get away for anyone wanting quiet and, perhaps, reading or study time. There is no TV, and due to the antique decor, I wouldn’t recommend this as a place for kids.

The kitchen and dining and living and bath and sleeping areas were perfect. Full size bed was very high up but they provide a step stool. Keurig coffee maker with Kcups, water and sparkling beverages in the fridge. Overall, much nicer than a local hotel or motel. Internet but no TV, a blessing.

This is a darling, cozy, and clean cottage. The grounds around it are very pretty and well kept. We were visiting for Truman State graduation and it was so convenient to be within walking distance of campus and our son’s apartment. I wish we would have found this gem years ago.

Perfect location and so cozy!

This charming cottage was the perfect place for me to spend a week while visiting my daughter, son-in-law, and grandson. I felt very much at home with everything that I could possibly need or want there for me. Great communication with the host, the listing is absolutely accurate in every way, and this property was better than I could have ever expected

Respite from City Life

This house is isolated in a quiet, tree shaded neighborhood. It's a charming venue, where I spent three stress-free days. As a singer, I particularly valued bursting into song day or night, knowing I had nobody within hearing distance to disturb! I can't wait to return.
