This is a house that has been tastefully decorated with vintage furnishings, and touches of Route 66 memorabilia and we have information available to help make your trip a unique experience. Food and shopping are close by. Girard has a couple of train tracks on the edge of town that you hear occasionally. Whether you're coming to see historic Route 66 attractions, on family trip or business travel, bring your suitcase, we have the linens, towels and a fully equipped kitchen, so come relax for day, week or more. Maybe you want to enjoy the spacious back yard, covered front porch with swing, or the nice flower bed patio area to watch the hummingbirds when they are in the area. The space is approximately 1600 square foot, over 85 years old. It was built before Route 66 was an attraction. There is ample parking on property. The woodwork in this home is awesome and the closet space is amazing for the period of time this home was built. The house is original, with just a kitchen remodel, first floor bedroom update and the bathroom spiffed up a little. Mainly filled with vintage furnishings but have added little touches of comfort. The dining room table is big enough for 8 if you add the extra leaf and chairs. The kitchen has table for four and everything you need to make your meals and lots of small touches to make you feel at home. There is NO Cable TV or WIFI so you can enjoy the ones you traveled with or maybe just sit and read a good book. There is plenty of games, cards and reading material to enjoy an experience of days of the past. ## Property amenities ### Parking and transportation - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Smart TV - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio - Yard ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - No elevator (single-level property) - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: No smoking of any kind permitted. ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In the city center - Next to a golf course ### Things to do - Boat - Golf - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Motor boating nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,600 square feet ## Similar properties ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/101000000/100410000/100408600/100408559/966feace.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Carlinville Cottage Carlinville - Kitchen - Dryer - Pet friendly - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 17 reviews CA $301 CA $688 total includes taxes & fees Jan 27 - Jan 28 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-27&endDate=2026-01-28&selected=100408559&PinnedHotelID=100408559&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/104000000/103430000/103428500/103428480/w1021h680x0y0-e4ca8d16.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Audrey's Abode - Restored log cabin, country setting, minutes from Jacksonville Jacksonville - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 9 reviews CA $177 CA $216 total includes taxes & fees Jan 27 - Jan 28 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-27&endDate=2026-01-28&selected=103428480&PinnedHotelID=103428480&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Living area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/122000000/121410000/121401800/121401776/f2871804.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Amazing 3-bedroom house with AC in Springfield Springfield - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning CA $397 CA $884 total includes taxes & fees Jan 27 - Jan 28 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-27&endDate=2026-01-28&selected=121401776&PinnedHotelID=121401776&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/65000000/65000000/64994300/64994277/0c54b2c7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Grand Victorian Carlinville home on Rt. 66\.
