About this property

Cozy, Fun, and One-Of-A-Kind!

The Shaw Fox's Den is a cozy, unique, and fun basement space (w/ it's own private entry) that offers everything you'll need for a comfortable short term stay, while also adding all of the amenities and charm that would make you not want to leave (especially if you like foxes!). Uniquely decor'd & accented with rustic wood furniture, green shrubbery, and of course the fur-babies of the woods - this space truly has everything you would expect in a luxurious "human" FOX DEN! ;-)

The Shaw Fox's Den is a finished basement suite - a clever (like a fox) space that offers a private bedroom with a luxurious queen sized memory foam bed and 32” smart TV, a separate living-room space with 50” smart TV and a small full-size (73” x 46”) pull out sofa bed (w/ memory foam topper) that can sleep one easily or up to two (snuggly), full kitchenette area with mini-fridge/microwave/sink/tea-coffee maker (with tea & coffee provided), dining table that seats 4, full bathroom with shower and a small fold down vanity table w/ lighted mirror, closet/dresser/storage in bedroom, multiple fast charging USB power outlets, and a private entryway into the space.

*Please note: this is a basement suite, and there is another rental space above this space in the main portion of the house.

**please be sure to read over all house rules before booking**

**MAKE SURE your guest count is accurate when booking, otherwise your reservation total can change or increase

*NEIGHBORHOOD DETAILS
The Shaw Fox's Den is located in the beautiful Shaw/Tower Grove neighborhood, which is currently one of the most popular, hippest, and safest neighborhoods in STL City. Once you experience it you'll see just how beautiful, green, and quiet it truly is. The den is also walking distance to a number of premier-rated restaurants, coffee houses, bars, wine bars, ice cream shops, the MO Botanical Garden, and of course....beautiful Tower Grove Park! TG Park has miles and miles of paved roads, which makes it perfect to take the scooters on for hours of fun zipping around outside in the beautiful scenery.

Tower Grove Park
This wooded Victorian strolling park rewards meandering. Its 340 kinds of trees could chart every shade of green, and they attract 200 kinds of birds, from red-shafted flickers and monk parakeets to ospreys and ring-billed gulls. Henry Shaw developed the park to give St. Louis “a grand pleasure ground,” with wide lanes for horse-drawn carriages, gates guarded by zinc griffins, and exotic pavilions and gazebos. Every few feet, there’s something to see: lions copied from the tomb of Pope Clement XIII, heroic sculptures (Shakespeare’s here), busts (including Mozart), and antiquities (columns from the Old Courthouse and stone “ruins” from the old Lindell Hotel, reflected in one of the most picturesque ponds in St. Louis). Park officials also recently uncovered a long-forgotten stream on the park's east side, accenting it with rain gardens and native plants on either side.

Also right on the other side of the park is the Grand Avenue strip - which is full of eclectic shops and amazing eateries - many of which serve authentic Asian & Middle-Eastern cuisines, along with classic American favorites.

Loved my stay at this thoughtfully appointed property!
Adorable decor, impeccably clean, so many thoughtful touches (you had me at the mini hostess pies!). The only thing is that I’m extremely tall, which yes is a personal problem. And there are some low points in the ceiling, shower and duct work that made it hard to wash my hair or put on a shirt without hitting my hand on the ceiling. My even taller partner didn’t come with me, but would have had to duck under some of these areas to move within the bedroom and bathroom. If you’re under 6 feet tall, you won’t be sorry with this place! And I truly wasn’t either. Thank you so much for your hospitality. I will be telling a lot of my friends who visit STL about the fox den!

Definitely could have been better.
I wouldn’t say the listing was inaccurate, but they definitely used clever angles in the pictures to make it look much bigger than it is. It feels incredibly cramped and cheap. You will also be greeted with “house rules” printed out and taped to every flat surface in the rental. There are notes telling you not to put the plates in the microwave (even though a microwave is the only cooking appliance) and even a note telling you which pillows you are allowed to sleep on. Over all it felt far from cozy, my husband and I decided to check out early.

About the host

Hosted by Tony Bove

Host profile image
Hello, we've been on VRBO for a few years now, and we absolutely love it. When we travel we want to get the FULL LOCAL EXPERIENCE - which makes us feel like a local, in a local neighborhood, eating at local restaurants, and doing local things. This is what VRBO is ALL ABOUT. And now also as hosts, it brings us the greatest joy that we can offer these same experiences to travelers coming to our beautiful city.

My name is Tony, and with my wife Filomena and two fur babies we are the BOVE family. I am an A/V Project Manager for Centene and she is a Varicose Vein RN at St. Anthony's Hospital.

We are a young active couple that loves to travel (of course), cook at home or eat at unique restaurants, and have a good time with our friends. I am also an audio engineer and music enthusiast. I graduated from Full Sail University with 2 degrees in Recording Arts and Entertainment Business. Filomena has her nursing degree from Barnes-Jewish College of Nursing & Allied Health.

We are very active and always on the go, but we always have time for our guests!

Why they chose this property

Well, who wouldn't want to stay in a magnificent Fox's Den! :)
