About this property

Historic headquarters of city founder! Gated parking!

  • Historic brick cottage has its own granite monument on Main Street. Private gated parking, huge fenced front yard. A history buff’s dream! So many restaurants and shops, Frontier Park, parades, festivals and fun!

    Very comfortable sleeping - queen bed in the bedroom and gel foam mattress on the sofa bed in the living room.

    Parking is at a premium on Main Street, but you leave the car and walk everywhere, knowing your car is inside the gated area waiting for your return. There is room for four cars, or even an RV!

    Check out the City’s website for all of the activities going on in the area. The holidays are especially fun with special events like ice carving contests, costumed characters, singing on the street corners, and Santa parades. Festival of the Little Hills, OktoberFest, and Fourth of July fireworks on the river are just a few of the things unique to the Historic District.

    Some favorite restaurants on Main Street are Old Millstream, Magpie’s, Salt and Smoke, Llewelyn’s, and Novellus - and there are many, many more!

Wonderful stay! The property was as pictured, very clean and cozy with a nice backyard and firepit that opened directly on to Main Street. Lots of cute coffee shops, restaurants and local stores within yards of the front gate. It was like walking out of the back door and into a scene from a Hallmark movie. Will definitely stay here again!

Great property and great location

We stayed for few days to visit friends and this was just what we wanted, convenient to main Street and close to restaurants and entertainment. I love to find period correct homes and this one has it all. Easy check in and departure. If you want to enjoy all the main Street offers, this is your place.

Weekend Getaway

This is such a cool little place! Absolutely best location for shopping Main St. Lynn’s place is very clean and well decorated. Although it’s right on Main St it is a very quiet location. Parking is so convenient with its own private parking in back of the property. We will absolutely be staying here again.

A very nice older property in a good location. We enjoyed our stay and like the private parking because during special events in the area parking becomes very limited. The host greeted us when we arrived and explained everything we needed to know.

The pictures don’t do this charming, historic property justice. Lynn was wonderful to work with and has provided every amenity to make for a comfortable stay. The gated private parking is also a huge plus. We’ll definitely book again.

Stayed here for a fall getaway and to visit family. The fall weather was beautiful and trees were beginning to turn colors. The historic area had a few events happening called Pumpkin Glow and Legends and Lanterns festival. Both gave the fall getaway just the right Halloween atmosphere and our lodging was right spot where everything was in walking distance! The gated parking in the rear of the house made it easy to come and go without the worry of finding parking upon return. Nicely located and cozy, clean accommodations!

Exceptional historic home!

This home offers everything you need to experience the St Charles charm. This historical home is meticulously kept! There is private parking and a private front yard that gives you privacy from people passing by. The owner is wonderful, and very responsive! I highly recommend this property!
