The neighborhood around Ironton Bungalow is part of the charming Arcadia Valley area, made up of Ironton, Pilot Knob, and Arcadia — a quiet, close-knit small-town community surrounded by the Ozark Mountains.

This area feels peaceful and residential, with a mix of long-time locals, families, and visitors who come for outdoor recreation. Streets are generally calm and walkable, and neighbors tend to be friendly and respectful. It’s the kind of place where evenings are quiet, stars are visible, and people wave as they pass by.

What really sets the neighborhood apart is its proximity to outdoor adventure. You’re just minutes from Shepherd Mountain Bike Park, one of Missouri’s premier downhill and trail riding destinations, as well as nearby hiking trails, state parks, and scenic drives. Downtown Ironton is close by and offers local restaurants, coffee spots, shops, and essentials without the feel of a busy tourist town.

Overall, the Ironton Bungalow neighborhood offers a relaxed, small-town vibe with easy access to nature, making it ideal for guests looking to unwind, explore the outdoors, or enjoy a slower pace while still being close to local amenities.

All of downtown is a walk out the backyard. Great restaurants and coffee shop around the corner! Upstairs is locked and off limit as well as the basement. We do allow use of the garage and carport. Garage remote can be found in the mud room. Note, garage is for gear storage not vehicles

Classic home offers a perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and pet-friendly amenities.

At the bungalow, you'll find a comfortable living space, a well-equipped newly remodeled kitchen and coffee/tea bar, and two cozy bedrooms with working space. The pet-friendly policy means your furry friends are welcome to join in on the fun, making your stay truly complete.

Experience the charm and convenience of the Ironton Bungalow, where pet-friendly accommodations, proximity to popular attractions, outdoor activities, and local shops await. Book your stay today and create lasting memories in this delightful classic retreat.

Walking distance to all of Ironton

Just a quick note about winter travel in the area. Roads around Ironton can be snowy or icy during winter months, especially after storms. We recommend keeping an eye on the weather forecast and allowing extra travel time.

If snow is in the forecast, a vehicle with good tires or AWD/4WD is strongly recommended. Missouri roads are usually well maintained, but conditions can change quickly, particularly on rural or hilly roads.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have questions before your drive in. Safe travels, and we look forward to hosting you!

The house was very nice and in a great location for us. We came to do some hiking and the home was in a quiet neighborhood and located near the trailheads. We were able to walk to several restaurants in the evening which was quite nice. The home was clean and comfortable.

Charming bungalow in great location

We had a wonderful stay at this cute bungalow in Ironton, Missouri. The home matched the online description perfectly—clean, cozy, and full of charm. It’s conveniently located near downtown Ironton, making it easy to explore local shops and enjoy the nice restaurant options nearby.

Relaxing Stay

We like to hike and explore the outdoors and wanted to stay somewhere simple for our family of 5. This property exceeded our expectations! The house was clean, beds comfy, fridge stocked and the coffee bar was over the top! We walked around the corner for Mexican at night and the coffee shop in the morning. The owners were responsive and helpful. We will be back again and highly recommend this property for a simple relaxing place to stay amid the beautiful Mountain region!

Cute bungalow, walk-able to all of Ironton

Our family of 4 stayed two nights so we could hike Elephant Rocks and Johnson's Shut-Ins. Cute little house, with everything we needed for a pleasant stay. Had warm weather and really enjoyed the Adirondack chairs on the front porch for morning coffee. We did discovered that being in town in March, Tuesday-Thursday, meant many businesses were not open. Checo's Mexican, Arcadia Valley Coffee, and the The Iron Mule were all delightful, and we are food/coffee snobs from Chicago :-)

Great weekend getaway!

We loved the Ironton Bungalow! We needed a quick weekend getaway from STL and this was perfect. We took advantage of the close proximity to Elephant Rocks and Johnson’s Shut ins, and stopped at two coffee shops in town. The house was bigger and better than how it appeared in the pictures and super clean! It was our first trip with our dog and the yard and dog supplies (while mostly unneeded) were a nice touch. We hope to be back!

Family vacation

My family had an excellent time exploring the town of Ironton, and all the cool nature parks around. The house was clean, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The bedrooms and living spaces were spacious and comfortable. We loved that we could just walk out the backyard gate and walk through town to get coffee, cold drinks, and shop at all the unique stores. We also loved that the house was so close to Elephant Rocks and Johnson Shut-ins. It was great to have all the recommendations from the host family as well. We checked out many of the restaurants and coffee shops they recommended and loved all of them! I think our favorite was Thee Abbey Kitchen!

Ironton Bungalow

We enjoyed our stay at the Ironton Bungalow in Ironton, Missouri. The home was a beautiful, updated older home. It was very clean and had all we needed for our stay. We had an issue with the tv and emailed the homeowner. Tristen immediately contacted us and tried to help us figure out the issue. Come to find out the tv went out. That didn’t affect our overall experience and we will be contacting them again when we come back to visit family! Wonderful home with wonderful homeowners!

Perfect stay for our family visit

Ironton was the perfect location for our outdoor adventuring. I come from a long line of generations who lived in Ironton and Arcadia Valley but never lived there myself. Getting to experience the small town 4th of July parade and slower pace of a holiday week kept things lively and laid back. Hiking at Elephant Rocks has been a family favorite since my dad was a kid and while there are more people visiting now, it was still just a magical. The home was comfortable and had everything we needed to relax between family visits, hikes, and antique shopping. The coffee shop on Main street satisfied the coffee snob in me and having the Dollar General nearby helped with last minute needs. We will be back!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
The property was super CLEAN, charming, filled with amenities like towels and kitchenware and had plenty of room for our family of 3. Triston, the owner, was very responsive, communicative and easy to work with. The only complaint we had was the street noise was loud, and the bungalow didn't have good insulation. You can hear every car that drove by, as well as the train horn in the middle of the night. Unfortunately, I'm a light sleeper, so the noise kept me up most of the night. However, if you're familiar with city sounds, you should have no problems as this was a lovely place to stay and central to everything in Arcadia Valley.
