About this property

Shaman Suite, Zia My Retreat

1905 Doc's office transformed into a comfortable vacation apartment!
Walk around our quaint town full of charming nostalgia! Visit shops, eat yummy food, watch glass blowers, visit our renowned distillery, take a walk along the levee or take in a movie right next door! All within a 3 minute walk of your suite! Boasting historic charm and modern amenities, this suite has everything you need for a great get-away! We are your getaway destination!

Zia's, Shaman Suite, is an historic doctor's office reimagined as a charming guest suite with original woodwork & large windows, updated with all the necessities for a comfortable getaway!

You will enjoy a spacious apartment, including a bedroom with 1 king bed & a large closet, a living room, full kitchen and a private bathroom with a spacious shower!

Come explore quaint downtown New Haven!
You can go right next door to the Walt Movie theater and take in a movie or walk around the block visiting shops, including Dos Bros Mexican Restaurant, Lang-a-Tang Deli, Astral Glass, Elizabeth's Gifts, Pinckney Bend Distillery, the Colter Memorial and the Missouri River Levee Walk. History comes alive in this quaint location just 18 minutes from Hermann & Washington!

Your suite is located across the street from the train tracks (yes there are trains and yes they blow their horns 24 hours a day) and a 3 minute walk from the river; you can experience trains and river traffic including tugboats and barges! The Missouri 340 runs right past our lovely town and many canoeists will be camped on our shores!
The Shaman Suite is a haven for your getaway that will have you rested and revitalized!

Upstairs Zia offers: 2 guest suites, the Shaman Suite & the Healer Suite.
Downstairs Zia offers: an healing boutique, yoga studio, therapeutic massage, reiki sessions and retreats designed to help you discover who you are and how to step into living fully as you were created!
Come! Rest! Reconnect! Revitalize!

The Zia symbol is derived from the Zia Tribe in New Mexico and represents a Strong Body, Clear Mind, Pure Spirit and Devotion to Others.
At Zia, New Haven our focus is to support you in creating a Zia Life; providing a space and offering experiences to nurture your journey to a strong body, clear mind, pure spirit and a devotion to God, yourself and others.
A Zia Life is our wish for you!

Our downtown is basically one block so it is very easy to walk around to all the shops, visit the riverfront and levee walk, check out the Colter Memorial, watch the boats on the river while enjoying a bonfire or watch the trains go by! You can walk uptown too, but it is all uphill from downtown, but then it is all downhill to come back to your suite!!!

Free parking is located in front of the building on the street.

Interaction is up to the guests, as well as both of our schedules. Your check in is completely independent. We will respect your privacy or we will join you for a beer or conversation in passing! We are only a text or phone call away.

Our neighborhood is unique. We are located between the RR Tracks and the Missouri River. We have trains that pass by frequently, while blowing their horn, and barges that pass by occasionally. Downtown we have shops, a deli, movie theater, glass blower, distillery, and Mexican restaurant. We have wonderful people and noisy trains! We have it all! We are nestled between Hermann and Washington, and are a quick drive to Augusta and Rosebud, so you can partake in their festivities but come home to relaxing New Haven! As one guest shared, we are just a skip away from the madness of the festivities and close enough to partake!

*We are open to arranging pick up and drop off if you are traveling by Amtrak or biking the Katy Trail. Just let us know in advance and we will do our best to help out. We do charge a fee for this service.
*You will need a rental car if coming from the airport.
*There is free parking in front of our building on the street.
*There are a couple of Lyft/Uber drivers available in the area.

We are directly across the street from the train tracks. The trains come through 24 hrs/day and they blow their horns every time they come through.

And we provide ear plugs for sleeping if you are in need!
No Smoking!
Respect our space and the amenities provided for your comfort!
Enjoy your stay!

loved the quaint and charming vibe of the place. The owners provide ear plugs to block out the sound of the trains which adds to the charm of the area. Highly recommend using them. Slept like a baby afterwards.:) Very close to Hermann and recommend going to Redbud as well. A number of unique boutiques/shops to explore there as well. Be sure to stop at Clancys bakery. You wont be disappointed.

Building and experience were as advertised

Enjoyed our stay in this old building. Rooms are clean and comfortable with plenty of living space. It had everything we needed for our stay. Building is located in an old part of New Haven along the river that seems to be experiencing a rejuvenation. The streets in this area are being completely redone, so it is a messy but they should be done soon. Walk to a distillery, brewery or wine bar. It is also just steps from a glass blowing workshop and next door to old operational movie theater. Train tracks are close and trains run regularly as stated in description.

About the host

Hosted by Laura Kohnen

Host profile image
Hi! We are Laura & Mark and we own Zia, New Haven!
We love to travel and therefore we love to host other travelers! We have been hosting in New Haven for 10 years! We have loved every minute of it and our guests have loved it also!
We created Zia and the suites so that we could provide comfortable, clean, relaxing accommodations that we ourselves would love to stay in! We are grateful that you have chosen the Shaman Suite and we pray you have a lovely stay and discover the Zia Life!

We first bought the building in 2009 and after extensive renovations, but keeping the historic details & charm, we opened the guest suites in 2012. We love the building with its beautiful pocket doors, warm mouldings and soothing ambiance.
We are sure you will love it too!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this building because we love historic buildings! We love this building's wood trim, mouldings, pocket doors, large windows, ambiance, and it's story! We love all the people who have come in and told us stories about being in the building years ago to see Doc Held or shop in Krull's Department Store downstairs. We love the history! If you love historical buildings full of charm, character, and rich history, you will love Zia, New Haven!

What makes this property unique

It is close to everything but away from the chaos! We are 18 minutes from Hermann and Washington, but in a quiet getaway. We are surrounded by shops and sweet places to visit, but it gets quiet at night. We have a distillery (and soon a brewery and wine garden) within walking distance! We have trains and barges and all the nostalgia that goes with them. We have it all! It is a friendly town with so much charm and character! It is a well kept secret that we hope you get to experience!
