About this property

WOW! What a historic and tastefully restored gem!! From the gleaming, original 1920's hardwood floors to the intricate wood trim and fixtures this home has three wonderful bedrooms complete with a master ensuite bath with jetted tub. The main level also features a guest bedroom and full bath. Need an extra bed? No problem-the couch has a full pull-out bed! The kitchen feels modern and spacious without sacrificing its historic allure. Pots, pans, silverware and seasonings are provided for you in the kitchen, no need to bring a thing! A large upper level has a guest bedroom. You'll enjoy the wrap-around porch that takes advantage of the sizable corner lot. The home sits across the road from the Centralia Public Library, steps away from the Centralia Historical Museum and just a few blocks from the historic downtown. Centralia boasts multiple restaurants, a grocery store, and hosts several festivals each year. Just a short drive from the university town of Columbia (home of the University of Missouri, Stephens College and Columbia College). Whether you're in town visiting family, attending a graduation or here on business, we're sure that The Rollins House Inn will be your home away from home!

Perfect getaway in cute town

The house was incredible. Just out of a Home and garden book. It was clean, had the cutest decor and many other amenities we enjoyed. After booking and arriving we noticed the listed had a couple things that were not actually available. We spoke with Betty and let her know and she got right on getting it fixed. You are within minutes of walking the cute downtown area where there are tons of local stores for shopping. Neighbors were so friendly- as is everyone you pass by. You are a short drive from Columbia but just far enough away. The Host, Betty could not have been a better host. She was quick with responses/ out needs. So polite and incredibly welcoming. I would recommend this home to any and everyone looking for a week long vacation spot or a quick weekend get away.

You should stay here!

This was a very relaxing home for visiting family to stay. Location is close to everything you might need on a visit. Betty is a very experienced host who is communicative and quick to respond. Check in/out was easy. So nice to have a local place to stay instead of commuting back and forth from out of town.

Amazing!

This property is great for family! It’s located just across from the library and the pool and park is just down the street a few blocks. Check in is super easy with a keyless entry. The beds seem new and firm but have a little give. Amazing pillows and blankets. The air conditioning works great! And had plenty of room for the 6 of us to spread out and have our own space and time! The Kitchen is well stocked. Had lots of left over spices and oil if needed. Coffee maker works wonderful! We had such a pleasant time. Thank you Betty!

Beautiful home with a great history

My daughter just graduated from University of Missouri. I was shocked to find out that Mr Rollins was one of its founding fathers. Our stay could not have been any better. The beds were comfortable and the amenities were endless. We also loved the Chance gardens just across the street. Thank-you for the great memories made.

Would book again!!

Our armored combat team stayed at this location when we were performing at Central Missouri Ren Fair. We arrived and all the lights and radio were on for us to greet us. It was a bit alarming because those who arrived first were worried that they had entered a space that was being occupied. The beds were more firm than some of our people liked, but I personally enjoy a firmer mattress. After the fair, we slugged back to the Rollins Inn and enjoyed using the kitchen to cook dinner for all of us. There were spices available which made our dinner even better. Since our fighters had fought so hard, we used the jacuzzi tub to relaxing our aching muscles. Once relaxed, we played card games and such that were available at the stay. The Rollins Inn is a great location for any friends or family who would love to spend time enjoying each other company. We are even considering booking another stay for a “couples retreat” to escape the busy of our lives.

Welcoming & Comfortable

This was booked for family coming from out of state. As they were senior citizens, they appreciated the hot tub that eased their muscles after a long day of traveling. They were impressed with the decor and amazed that they actually had the whole house!
