About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Octagon of the Ozark's. 10 minutes from Springfield! Remote feel, yet close.

Truly unique and peaceful getaway. Our home sits on 5 acres of private, wooded surroundings nestled in a private community in the heart of the Ozarks. You will feel like you are in the wilderness, but conveniently are only 10 minutes from the City. It's the best of both worlds.

Newly renovated, with stunning features that blend antique and modern design elements.

High speed internet, perfect for a remote worker.

Just a shot 5 minute drive to Fellows lake - access to hiking trails, parks, fishing and other outdoor recreation.


**The space**

Our newly renovated home is a unique, cozy and peaceful oasis. We are off the beaten path with 5 acres of beautiful land to explore and admire, yet only a short 10-12 minute drive into the city of Springfield. The home is approximately 1700sqft and can accommodate 5-6 people comfortably.

The home has 2 bedrooms that have queen sized beds and en-suite bathrooms with full tub showers. The third bedroom has a full bed, and there is one powder room (half bath).

When you step through the front door, you’ll be awed by the unique octagon/dome shape, unlike any other home in the area. The space is open and spacious, with a large kitchen complete with full sized refrigerator, microwave, electric range stove and dishwasher. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you would need to create your favorite meals and serve your guests. We have a dining table that seats 6 as, well as the star of the room, the antique island in the kitchen with three stools for more seating at mealtime. This island we custom made, from an antique bar, added beautiful spaulding maple butcher block. You’ll love the living space with a comfortable sectional couch, mounted flat screen tv with access to Netflix (and other streaming services). While the couch is not a pull-out bed, we find very comfortable for a guest to sleep on at night. Help yourself to any of the books on our shelf! You’ll appreciate the spacious laundry room with washer/dryer and complementary detergent and fabric softener. We even have a pre-wash stain remover - just in case! An iron and ironing board will be available for you to use. We also have cleaning supplies just in case of any accidents that cannot wait for the cleaners to come. Two bedrooms (one en-suite, one stand alone) and a powder room round out the domed living space. We have a backyard deck for you to enjoy - feel free to use our grill and have a family cookout! You’ll find a walkway leading from the dome to our master suite. Within that space we’ve got two accent chairs and a table - a perfect place to enjoy morning coffee as you look out the floor-to-ceiling windows and take in the beauty of the surrounding woods. You’ll see two barn doors welcoming you to the master suite. Relax away from the rest of the group in your own private wing (which also has a tv) and enjoy an additional outdoor patio off your room.

Just so that you’re never without what you need, we are happy to supply shampoo, conditioner, hair dryer, body soap, hand soap, body lotion, toothbrushes, toothpaste, towels, and toilet paper. Our kitchen will have regular dip coffee. Help yourself to our stash of healthy energy drinks, protein bars and bottled water - in case you need to grab something on the go.

Our water comes straight from the local well - the best and most pure water to drink. No water filters needed!


There is a fire pit, with wood for your use down by the well house in the front yard.
We also have corn hole (bag toss), in the front closet as well as a card table and a few board games.

One of our favorite things about this house is how much natural light comes in from all the windows - which also offer fantastic views of the beautiful grounds that surround the property.

Should you be an adventurous spirit, a nature lover, or just looking to explore/take in the great outdoors, we are only a few minutes drive to the beautiful Fellows Lake (read more about Fellows Lake under the ‘location’ description).

The property has a gravel driveway, with a paved pad near the house with enough room for plenty of cars. The garage, however, is off limits.

We have installed keyless entry for your convenience and ease. Our property has security cameras surrounding the outside premises for your protection and safety. Rest assured, there are no camera inside.
Guest access
You will have full access to the entire home, all outdoor patios, driveway, and yard space (including the wooded area behind the house).

The garage and the work shed are off-limits.
Other things to note
We are not local, but are readily available via phone, text or email. We have a property manager in the area that can step in should there be any emergencies or situations needing immediate presence or assistance.
Make yourself comfortable in this vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.

Lovely property!
Our stay was wonderful with family at Christmas time! While the weather was rainy and cold, the accommodations inside could not have been more comfortable or lovely. So many nice decorative elements along with the great room that had the kitchen and dining overlooking the family area. This will be put on our favorites list!

Lovely home
I have stayed in a handful of VRBO rentals. This was the nicest home we have rented. The renovation are gorgeous. All of the rooms are nice but the kitchen is very spacious. The bathrooms are nice but note that the 2 showers are both within a respective bedroom so the guest in the third bedroom can only access a shower through someone else’s bedroom. There is a half bath accessible to all. Overall, it was a comfortable home. We loved the setting. It was exactly what we were looking for. If we were ever going back, we’d definitely go there again. This home sets a high bar for other rentals.

Best Vacation House Ever!
We have stayed at a lot of vacation houses but this is by far the best one yet! Newly remodeled with super nice finishes! Extremely clean and not cluttered with extra decor. Very comfy mattresses and pillows. High quality shampoo, conditioner, body wash and even shaving cream. Nice furniture inside and out. Washer and dryer. Lots of privacy. Very attentive hosts. Love this place! We plan to be back again next year.

Beautiful home in perfect location
I stayed at this amazing property while visiting my father in Springfield. This house was 3 mins away from my dads and i am so grateful to have had such a beautiful home to come back to in the evenings. I was 10mins from downtown Springfield but felt a million miles away. Property is very private, very comfortable and clean. Owners were super responsive and accommodating, i will stay here everytime I come to see family. There honestly is not one thing i would have changed, they provided soaps, toilet paper, towels, spices and even had snacks and drinks for us when we arrived. Thank you Hunt family for making your home so relaxing and comfortable.

Everything was better than expected! The large open area with each bedroom branching off it is a perfect layout, the location is close to the lake and city amenities but in a woodsy acreage lot size community, and the beds are optimized for comfort. A fantastic getaway!

Great Experience
This is a unique place. The architecture is interesting and it is located in a quiet neighborhood. This house was well kept and has lots of space. Most household items were provided. The location is convenient as well since it is so close to Springfield. And the property owner was quick to respond when we had a question or two. It was an over-all great experience.
