Very very clean property and has everything you could ever need for a relaxing stay. The host was amazing with communication and the house was the cleanest I have ever experienced at a VRBO. And that bed was the most comfortable bed we have ever slept in. Great little patio for a margarita or a cup of coffee. The shower was HUGE and had an awesome shower head. The kitchen was stocked with all your needs and I was even surprised to see cast iron cookware. Make sure you pick up a pound of bacon at the Wurt Haus, it won’t disappoint! The house is at a perfect location to walk to the historic district of Hermann and we highly recommend taking in the German museum!

We loved our stay at The Shanty! The house was very nice and had everything you could want. Our favorite things were the fire pit outside, the bed was super comfortable, and the bathroom/shower was very nice and spacious. We would definitely come back!

Yes thank you All the homes in Hermann are older. This one was built in 1880 as it states in our listing, and it is solid as a rock! It was a pleasure to bring a fresh look to what had been well cared for for over a century Thank you for choosing The Shanty on 5th.

Very nice property, close to everything, but in a very quiet area. Everything you needed and more was provided by the host. Lot’s of nice touches and we liked the eclectic feel. Would definitely stay here again or in the companion property onsite.

This house was so cute , bright colors everywhere. Becky provided everything we needed , even fire starter and forks so we could roast marshmallows ! The house was very clean , walking distance to downtown , Resturaunts and shopping 3 blocks . Becky , the host , replied to all of our questions right away , she even sent us a list of events in the area along with our directions of how to get in the house. That was very helpful. Loved the coffee bar, and that huge bathroom. Enjoyed sitting around the campfire, the chairs outside were very comfy, even has a picnic table . The outdoor lighting was awesome. The trolley stopped right at our front door so we could unload our wine and then waited for us to get back on. The neighborhood around the shanty seemed very safe and quiet, Would highly recommend staying here, I’m sure we will be back again.

The Shanty was a perfect home away from home for our visit to Hermann. Great location, cozy yet spacious, super clean, and had everything we needed (including a blow dryer with diffuser which is a must for wavy/curly girls!). We loved it so much we’re hoping to come back again in the fall!

10 Stars! The Shanty is exactly how described and better! Before we even arrived communication with host was great. She offered lots of details about things to do in Hermann and answered all our questions. You can’t help but smile as soon as you walk in The Shanty! Vibrant colors yet cozy & relaxing atmosphere. CLEAN! The furniture is comfortable and the bed is VERY comfortable! We felt right at home with well stocked kitchen and the cast iron skillet option was a plus. We took advantage of coffee on the patio and there’s a fire pit available for cooler temperatures. All very CLEAN! The Shanty is only a couple of blocks from “downtown” area. We walked everywhere in town! Our morning walks were in the park and through neighborhoods. We’ve already shared The Shanty with several friends and we will return! Directly behind The Shanty is The Shed and it is as adorable! This is a perfect place for a couples getaway or girls trip. We searched several VRBOs when making plans for our trip. We are SO thankful we chose The Shanty!

The Shanty was very clean and well maintained. Host responded quickly with any questions we had. The location was central to everything and we walked everywhere. This has nothing to do with the host but if you want to shop and eat in town, many places were closed early in the week. We still enjoyed our trip.

We are frequent visitors to Hermann and this location did not disappoint. The decor was so cute and inviting, the kitchen was fully stocked with all you will need. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t the best for enjoying the outside area but it’s perfect for a couple or a group. You can get to downtown Hermann in just a short walk. Next time we will try to rent the property behind the house and invite some friends. Becky was very friendly and quick to respond with any questions we had.
