Weekend get away with friends
5/5 Was a great place to stay! We loved that it was close to walking trail, food, wineries, and breweries! It was a beautiful weekend to sit on the deck.

Cute Remodeled Farm House
5/5 We had a lovely stay at this property during our extended wine weekend in Defiance/Augusta! Perfect for two couples! The home was clean & well equipped. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our coffee & breakfasts daily. The fireplaces in the bedrooms & living area were a bonus since it was cold & snowy. The house was centrally located for our travels to nearby wineries, distilleries & restaurants. We would stay here again!!

Cute Remodeled Farm House
5/5 We had a lovely stay at this centrally located home in Defiance, MO. It was made a perfect home base for our extended wine weekend in Defiance/Augusta! The two private bedrooms were a great fit for the two couples. The house was clean & well equipped. We cooked all our breakfasts at the house before heading out to several nearby wineries each day. Since it was cold & snowy, we enjoyed the fireplaces in the bedrooms & living room. We spent time around the large dining room table visiting & enjoying our wine purchases. Had the weather been warm, the deck would have been amazing for people watching. The spiral staircase to the upstairs bedroom was a neat feature - as well as the heated towel rack in the upstairs bathroom! We would definitely stay here again!

5/5 The only thing I would recommend is that when you list the amenities you say that the grill isn't a gas grill. Other than that nothing to add. Great place and with all the wineries so close by it made for a great weekend with beautiful fall weather and scenery.

Weekend Getaway
4/5 The property was very nice and we enjoyed staying in it. The only problem was that the bar across the street kept blaring music until 1:30am so we weren't able to sleep well.
