I have stayed in a number of VRBO properties and Christine's home is the most well appointed rental property I have ever rented. The home was very clean and comfortable and the proximity to Main Street is very convenient. The small touches provided were unsurpassed. From the devise charging stations, extra toiletries and well stocked kitchen this home is a winner.

Furnishings are well selected. Appliances are virtually new. The house appears considerably renovated. Air conditioning works effectively. Area is quiet. One neighbor was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed 6 nights and would like to come back. The house is charming plus renovated plus effectively working plus comfortable. We are grateful for the effort and handed a gift to the owner.

This property was everything we could have wanted and more. It truly truly felt like a home away from home. We stayed here on sort of the second leg of an almost 2 week long vacation and so the two washers and dryers in the basement were a huge plus. We were able to wash our clothes and be back to a fresh start to begin the second half. Our son spent almost all his time downstairs playing in the basement with all the games and activities. It was a fun change of pace just to kind of stay in and have family night with some pizza and games for a change on our vacation. Location was great, it was a short drive to all the activities we wanted to do while in St Louis and it still felt like we had a retreat to go back to. Any time we go back to the St Louis area I’ll be looking to stay here again. Absolutely loved it!

Perfect Place to Stay!

My wife and I with our 2 daughters aged 7 and 10 stayed here during Spring Break to spend time in St. Louis. This place was absolutely perfect. My kids really enjoyed the ping pong and Foosball table. I recommend this place to anyone.

This is a lovely home in a safe neighborhood. The house sits on a very quiet street. Ability to park 2 cars in the garage was a bonus! The backyard was really nice with a fire pit and outdoor chairs were also available. The entire yard was extremely well manicured.The house itself is just what the pictures indicate. It's equipped with everything you'll ever need! We loved everything about the house. Extremely comfortable and clean.Communication with the host was extremely easy and arrival/departure instructions were easy to follow. The location is wonderful! Close to so many St. Louis attractions, restaurants, casino's, etc. We would not hesitate to stay here again or recommend to friends and family. Book this stay! You will not be disappointed.

So glad we found this awesome place. Communication with Christy was top notch. A group of six stayed for two nights after a week of riding the KATY Trail. We were thrilled to have a garage to store our bicycles. We had a 15-passenger van so parked on the street in front of the house. But a "typical" vehicle would have fit in the two-car garage along with the bikes. House was very clean. Both bathrooms were nicely updated and well stocked: Containers on bathroom counter with individual face wipes, cotton balls, and Q-tips.  Showers had shampoo, conditioner, & body wash. One cute feature - the bathroom has six or so hooks for towels. Above the hooks was a long chalkboard so you could write your name above your towel hook. Very clever when many people are sharing a bathroom! Beds were very comfortable and had lots of comfy pillows (a plus in my book!). Bedrooms also had plenty of outlets and charging ports - both next to the beds and also on the dresser. There were also many soft blankets/throws in the bedrooms and living room - perfect for snuggling up after six days of riding! Kitchen had plenty of dishes, pots & pans, utensils, etc. for cooking. We only cooked two meals there, but it was nice to have that. Location is great - very close to the KATY Trail. We went to Lewis & Clark Restaurant one night. It was during Octoberfest - which was a huge event - and we were worried about parking. So we walked from the VRBO - less than a mile walk. Thank you for a great stay, Christy!!
