Jazmyn's graduation
What an amazing property. We were greeted with deer, rabbits, ducks, geese and squirrels each morning. The quiet, peaceful mornings were so serene. The house was perfect. Details matched the description online as well as clean and tidy. Marie, what can I say? You are an awesome host 😊 Thank you for a great weekend. Despite the weather, you helped to make my daughter's graduation party a huge success and full of lifetime memories ✨️ everyone had a great time. The hot tub was sooo relaxing. Mahalo and look forward to staying here again. There's no other place I'd rather stay then at this beautiful home! I highly recommend booking this property for your next family vacation!

Top notch experience.
Can't say enough about this property. Nice private property but still just minutes from stores & things. Everything was so well thought out & set up for a great stay. Tvs everywhere, bluetooth speaker for taking your music anywhere. Movie room uptairs & in basement. Hot tub, pool & covered tiki bar for hanging outside. Grill & lots of seating outside too. Solar lights outside & nice icicle lights in the trees. Such a special place. The owner left us fruit & croissants & several slices of cake for our arrival. You will not regret checking this place out!

Extremely enjoyable and relaxing
Very beautiful home and property, you feel like your not even close to the city. Best stocked kitchen I've ever seen at a place we rented; all the cool kitchen tools and spices. We really enjoyed our stay. The property managers were very helpful and gave good suggestions things to do in the area.

60th Birthday Paradise
Marie and Mike were wonderful hosts. They took care of my every need very promptly. The home was beautiful, very clean like my own little private paradise. I hosted my 60th birthday with close friends and family, their property was very private and accommodated everyone. I would definitely be back.

Calm and peaceful experience.
The space provided ample room for a family gathering. It’s a calm peaceful environment which was needed during a time of grieving from a funeral. Maria was as excellent host and was one of the best hosts in from experience. She met all our needs and requests. The rooms had different themes and they were well suited. The basement and game room was a nice touch. The deck is great for barbecuing and enjoying nature. The on property pond with them Canadian geese added to the experience. Our entire family is looking forward to coming back to St Louis to the property again in the future. Thank you Marie for an excellent time.

Family Getaway
Great property - lots of room for our family of 7 to spread out. Marie was a great host - good communication from beginning to end. She waa super sweet had fresh fruit & lemonade waiting for us upon arrival & checked on us when a big storm came up within an hour of arriving. Kids loved the saltwater pool, hot tub & hanging out on the huge deck!! Enjoyed watching/listening to all the wildlife - deer, geese, birds & frogs. Saw 8 deer one morning. Rained a few days during our stay, but plenty to do indoors with pool, pingpong, & cards. We cooked most meals at the house and the kitchen worked out perfect, plenty of pots, pans, & dishes. Comfortable beds as well. Awesome property & host!!

Marie and location are amazing
Marie is amazing. She was a great hostess and very responsive. She even made chocolate chip cookies for the kids. Not only was Marie great but the property was too. The house was the perfect location for a trip into st louis and then relax at night. The kids had plenty to do and the adults were able to relax. Definitely recommend this location.
