We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful countryside home. The area was quiet and peaceful, but still very convenient—Walmart and other stores were just a short drive away.We stayed in the lower level of the house, which had a cozy, rustic feel and plenty of space for everyone. It had everything we needed, and everything was clean and comfortable.Communication with the property manager was great—very friendly and quick to respond.Overall, it was a relaxing and easy stay. We'd definitely come back and recommend it to others!

Well manicured upscale property set in farm/ranch forested secluded area. Has a pond with a canoe and a small sandy beach. Pasture with horses.

Family reunion

Really enjoyed the rural setting and lots of room to visit together and eat outside in the evenings. Galley kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals & snacks (but could have used a little more counter space). Owners lived in main floor of house above this basement setting, but noise was never an issue & they were just a phone call away to answer any questions. Had a great time!

Christmas Holiday Getaway

Our family (spouse, adult daughter, three grandkids, and myself) spent a week that included Christmas at the High Ridge home. The home is in a beautiful, hilly area close to St. Louis and it fit our needs perfectly. A very special part of our stay included the feeding of the horses that are on the grounds of the property. The grandkids loved this experience. The hosts were excellent.

Very scenic, relaxing

Very scenic, rural setting with a fire pit. Close to Six Flags, and 20/25 minutes to everything else. It is a basement apartment, with the owners living upstairs, but with its own entrance and yard area. There was a temporary problem with water pressure, but the owner fixed the problem quickly.

Great week-long stay with friends

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Rocking J Ranch. The house has enough space for 10 people (4 adults and 6 kids). The kids enjoyed petting and feeding the horses (with permission from the owners, Brian and Suzy). We experienced a four-hour county-wide power outage one night. Brian and Suzy were prompt with their response of multiple flashlights, lanterns, and candles. My son wanted to "go camping" and thanks to Brian and Suzy, we achieved it. Verizon cell reception is intermittent inside the house, but this was a blessing to keep us off our phones. We could simply walk outside if we needed to do something. I would recommend Rocking J to friends and family and will keep it in mind for a future visit to St. Louis.

About the host

Hosted by Susan Davis

Host profile image
Semi Retired Couple , empty Nesters, and outdoor and nature lovers!
Randy keeps the grounds cut and trimmed beautifully! We love sharing
our little piece of heaven with others and hearing of their adventures
around the Country and World. We live in the Main Level of the Home full time,
unless we are vacationing like you.

Why they chose this property

You are close to St. Louis , 25 minutes via Highway 44 East, but setting is inside scenic
foothills and beautiful grassy Valleys with private little lakes, and wooded trails to lure you off the shaded patio to exercise and enjoy the views and nature all around. Our farm is home of all wildlife Missouri offers, quail, deer, skunk, fox, racoon, groundhog, coyote, and wrens, woodpecker, blu jay, cardinal, and Martens. We hardly get a mosquito because of the Martens, and bats that naturally take care of this. We recommend spray for other insects if you hike. In the West out 44 is Caverns .Branson is 5 hrs away.

What makes this property unique

You can be alone with nature, with no close houses next to you. You can do nothing or stay active daily with many options locally from City life in St Louis, to Natural Parks,
Fishing, and 6 flaggs close by. If you wish to float around on our private natural lake, bring your favorite float and maybe some water shoes, small beach to a floating dock and naturally clean, fresh water to cool off in. You have your own laundry room too.
