About this property

Entire place

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

Sunshine House

This unique house began as a duplex in 1958 but midway through building became a single family home. Since 1958, the house has had two owners, both within the same Nicholson family. It has 4 bedrooms and two baths with large living space in the middle of the house. It is situated on a corner lot with a front driveway and a back driveway. The back entrance is handicap accessible and one bathroom is also handicap accessible. A nice brick patio in the backyard allows for grilling, dining alfresco and relaxing under large trees. The house has floor to ceiling windows in the east living room which allows the morning sun to make the room warm and cozy. This house is perfect for families, couples, family reunions, or girl-friend get-a-way weekends.

This was a great place to stay for our family. It was wonderful having all the extra room. Home was clean, check in/out process smooth. Would stay again.

Stays like this are what I love about VRBO. Not only is the property an amazing time capsule but the host graciously considered even the small comforts. Plenty of room to spread out, comfortable beds, lots of thoughtful details. I can heartily recommend staying here and would do so again.

I'm traveling back to Ellis frequently for family affairs. This was the first time I stayed at the Sunshine House. Stayed there with my brother and sister-in-law. The house is layed with bedroom areas are on each end, so we had privacy and didn't disturb others. This house has a ton of character! There was a cozy living area we had late night conversations. We didn't use the kitchen but it looked adequate with plenty of supplies. If you visit during nice weather the patio area looks inviting. It is an older home but was very clean. I would stay here again.

We were in town for a family event and this house was great. We had plenty of room and amenities for our time. Close to groceries, playground and other shops. Comfortable furnishings. Definitely recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay. Robin was very flexible and the property was lovely. I grew up in Ellis so it was fun to stay so near the school I went to. I recommend this place for families as well as couples…very nice and roomy!

Our family was in town for a family reunion and this was a great house. The house had plenty of space for our family. It was a short walk to the the main road in town and the grocery store. We would definitely rent again next time we are in Ellis. It would be nice to have filtered water in the house since the city water is hard.

Enjoy finding small town homes to stay in and this was a great find! Tons of room, convenient location to local grocery store, right next door to playground space (convenient if you have younger ones who need to burn off some travel energy), and the home has great character and a cool retro feel. Great clear communication leading up to trip and access easy and straightforward.

Plenty of space for our party of 8. Everything was clean and I loved the big windows that let in lots of light. The kids loved the playground across the street!
