Loved Hazel and Oliver cottages, they were both just as pictured. The cottages were spotlessly clean and the mattresses/linens/bathrooms/towels were high quality—very luxurious. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed. The cottages are “very old,” but the renovations provided incredible modern amenities while retaining the feel of years gone by. Brilliant, stunning design.Our only mention is the access to the river. The climb down and back up was taxing, especially for the older folks in our group. However, being in the Meramec was very relaxing, fishing was exciting.We enjoyed the fire pit and the huge dining room/table every night. The security and privacy are unmatched. Just a gem of a place way out in the woods, down by the river.
