Super cute and cozy
Very cute and cozy. Everything you need for a short or long stay. We loved drinking our morning coffee out on the bedroom balcony. Such a pretty location as well.

We liked the coziness of the tiny house and it still had what we needed. The only thing we didn't like was the ac window units being loud. It was hot so they needed to run the whole time. They did work fine, just loud. Overall, decent place to stay for the weekend.

Third time staying!
This was our third time staying at Missouri Haus' Hound Haus in Villa Ridge. As it is every year, this stay was great. My dogs love the lofted bedroom because they get to look out the balcony and watch all the people and animals outside. My one dog loves the air conditioning and the other loves to snuggle on the couch. We loved the full sized refrigerator to keep all our food for the 5ish days we stayed. The kitchen is stocked with all cooking supplies which makes it really easy to stay in and cook. We ordered take out one night from a local place and that was awesome. The TVs on both floors was nice to watch any of the streaming services. I could go on and on. We love this location for our dog event at Purina Farms because it is less than a 10 minute drive away. We hope to book again for next year. Thanks Missouri Haus!

Perfect little spot
Hound Haus as a perfect little spot to feel like you’re having a getaway. I was showing my dog at Purina Farms, so I chose to stay in Villa Ridge. Even though the house is close to the conveniences of the city, it feels like you’re staying at a country house. The grounds are immaculately kept, and there’s enough green space between the other houses on the property for it to feel private. There was enough space to take a good walk with my dog, and at night, so many stars to gaze at from the balcony. The house itself though small, is homey and well appointed and thoughtfully decorated: tiny but tidy. Like all Missouri Haus properties, it was spotless when I arrived, with crisp, white linens on the bed, and thick, fluffy towels. The online guidebook prepared me for the space so that I knew how it was laid out ( bedroom upstairs, everything else downstairs) and what I would need to pack. I’m excited to stay again!
