Overview
Four Queen Bedrooms With Private Baths, Lovely Gardens And Amazing River View.
Spirit Hill offers a home away from home for 2 to 8 guests. The contemporary red house is located on a bluff overlooking the Missouri River in Hermann, the most beautiful small town in Missouri. Just five blocks from the Historic District, Spirit Hill is a quiet retreat that's less than a 5-minute drive from anywhere in town - wineries, museums, restaurants, shops, wedding venues, marina, bike trail, Amtrak.
Spirit Hill accommodates a group of eight with four queen bedrooms, each with private bath. The home was recently remodeled for a fresh, contemporary feel.
If your group is smaller, other options are available. For a group of six, choose the Main Level, available as a complete package with 3 bedrooms and baths. Or choose the lower level Patio Suite for two. Please contact us for rates for these options.
There's plenty of parking upstairs and down. And the house is completely accessible, with a roll-in front door and one bedroom with a roll-in shower.
Whole House rental includes living/dining area, full kitchen and generous deck with gas grill. Coffee and tea supplies are provided, and biscotti snacks. Breakfast and all meals are up to you. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, dishes, and even spices.
Hosts are on-site in the lower level Innkeepers Suite to answer any needs you may have.
Each rental has its own separate entrance. We enjoy meeting you on arrival, but after that, the house is your own unless you need something. We're glad to suggest grocery locations, restaurants, wineries and activities if you like.
In operation for more than 12 years, we enjoy sharing Spirit Hill's comfortable spaces and beautiful views with our guests, some of whom have been joining us for many repeat visits.
If you're in town for a wedding, Spirit Hill accommodates the wedding party or multi-generations of family for a mini-reunion. Groups of friends, couples or singles, enjoy relaxing on the deck or around the dining table for meals, games and laughter.
About Marsha Nyberg
We happened on Spirit Hill one day when we were staying in a Bed & Breakfast in Hermann. The stunning river view stopped us in our tracks! And there was a 'For Sale' sign in the yard ... so three weeks later, Spirit Hill was ours! After six years of enjoying weekends in the charming historic town of Hermann, we were able to move in full time. We did a complete rehab and expansion based on meeting the needs of our guests. It resulted in a completely new look, four bedrooms with ensuite baths, a separate Innkeepers Suite, and a beautiful, rocky landscape with two small fish ponds and a waterfall. We love to share the beauty and benefits of the property and the town!
Marsha Nyberg purchased this house in 2000
Why Marsha Nyberg chose Missouri
Only a few homes in Hermann enjoy such a beautiful river view. Year round, it's satisfying to watch the river flow and to see the water rise and fall with the seasons. Views from inside and outside the house make Spirit Hill a truly special place.
What makes this house unique
Spirit Hill was remodeled to resemble a Swedish summer house, with red walls and white trim, as a nod to our family's Swedish roots. The light is an important feature of the house, with windows spreading light from front to back. Even after dark, Spirit Hill is a fine location to watch for shooting stars, away from city light pollution.

Wedding/Family Reunion
What a spectacular home! We had an amazing time. The home is very comfortable. Gary was so kind to give several family members tours of the beautiful gardens surrounding the home. The fire pit patio overlooking the river was so relaxing. Great place for coffee in the morning as well! The town of Hermann was delightful! We had never been before - hope one day to return! Loved our stay!
Amazing Place
This house is amazing! Even though we didn't get to use the house and the grounds as much as we would have like, it was my daughters wedding weekend and it rained the entire weekend. Marsha and Gary were wonderful, the house was just as it looks in the pictures, super clean. I will definitely be back and hopefully with better weather so we may enjoy the grounds,be able to use the fire pit and really get to enjoy the view.
Great view. ADORABLE house.
Amazing property. House was very clean. Owners were helpful and very nice! Trolley picked us up at house for wineries!
Great Couples Weekend Away
Gary & Marsha could not have been any nicer, they have a gorgeous set up. There were four couples and we arrived on Friday and stayed until Sunday, spending most of our time by the bonfire out back and the kitchen table for many laughs at breakfast. Lots of laughs, wine, dancing and music...bonfire was a hit!! We will definitely book again. The trolley picked us up from the driveway and they even took us to pick up pizza to bring back to the house for dinner one night. Gary even gave us all seeds to some of his gorgeous flowers for us to plant once it is warmer. Thank you so much Gary & Marsha!!
Wonderful home and property
Spirit Hill home and gardens were more than we expected. Marsha and Gary have created a beautiful getaway home. The property had beautiful gardens and overlooked the river. We spent both evenings enjoying the fire pit. We stayed in the main home and each couple had a bedroom and bath. The home was very clean and had a full kitchen with most everything you could need to cook. We would have loved to stay longer. The trolley came and picked us up and dropped us off at the end of the day. You would need a car to get there from town.
Just as beautiful as pictures show!!!
I would definitely stay here again. Accomodations were more than expected!!
