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 property was absolutely perfect for our girls weekend! Plenty of space for our 7 person group, lots to do at the property(we had a blast in the basement!) and in the surrounding area. Christy was very communicative and helped us solve a parking problem right away. The house was clean and well kept, and all of our home info and instructions were laid out simply and neatly. This is a great place to stay!
Super cute property close to Main St and easy access to highways and airport. The kids really enjoyed the basement with pool table, ping pong and foosball! Enjoyed spending the 4th of July holiday here and would definitely stay here again.
Fantastic stay, Christine has an eye for detail for items needed to make our wonderful. The game room is fantastic and beds super comfortable. Highly recommend this VRBO!
Great place - roomy, spacious, nice outdoor space.
Responsive hosts.
Reasonable walking distance or short drive to old town Main Street.
Would stay here again!
The house was very clean and perfect! We had ages 2-70 in our little group and everyone loved it. The game room was a huge hit! The beds were the most comfortable i had ever slept on through vrbo.
Great experience. Everything listed was available. Host was very responsive and accommodated a later check out time for us. The kids loved the game room and having their own room to share with a wide selection of movies. We all loved the variety of board games provided as well. Great, quite neighborhood. No issues with noise, traffic, or anything else. 10/10 would stay again
We had a great stay. Christy, the host, has thought of everything. Plenty of coffee supplies, and even shampoo and body wash in the shower. Plenty of towels and kitchen supplies. I talked to the girls afterwards and they said the ONLY thing they would recommend is a TV in the basement. The basement has a great game room setup. We enjoyed ourselves. The house is very close to Schnucks and a short drive to Main Street for shopping, etc. We would stay again and I have already recommended the house to a friend for another girls trip.
Wow, what a gem. The house was immaculate and well-equipped. It also had a ton of "extra" touches such as makeup-removing wipes, provided detergent, well-stocked cabinets, and a ton of baby/kid-friendly items (baby gate, pack n-play, potty chair, monitor, and baby bath... to name a few). The location was very close to historic downtown St. Charles. It's not quite walkable, but just a couple-minute drive. It was a quiet neighborhood and communication with the owner was phenomenal. I can't recommend this place enough! My high school besties and I meet in St. Charles once or twice a year, and I think we've found our go-to home base!!
Everything about this house was exactly what we wanted and had extras that we didn’t know we needed! First, let me say that it was a cute and clean house in an incredibly nice, quiet neighborhood. We loved being able to go to the store without leaving small neighborhood streets. My favorite part was the precious wild bunnies that apparently have a home in the backyard. The house was much bigger than my small family of three needed. Although, with only one bathroom I can’t imagine having a full house. We spent several afternoons and evenings in the backyard. The yard was well kept and was cut while we were out one day, which was perfect! My son enjoyed several of the games available in the garage and we had quite the family cornhole competition one evening. The game room was the main reason we rented and did not disappoint! My son fell in love with darts. Unfortunately, my husband and I completely lost track of time playing pool one night and finally called it quits around 3am. There are so many little things that are fabulous about this house like: chargers available in different rooms, Bluetooth speakers in game room, extra hygiene items in case you forgot something, spare blankets, ziplock bags, and information in a binder about the area. My husband was incredibly happy about the easy access to interstate and a general 30 minute drive to anything/everything we wanted to do while here for vacation. We would, without a doubt, stay here again and highly recommend the property!
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING place. Felt just like home. Host had everything and anything you might need. Great mattresses, great shower pressure, fluffy towels, a garage to park our cars, an amazing entertainment area downstairs. It was perfect! Highly recommend.
We loved our stay at your beautiful home. It was very convenient to Lindenwood university which we were attending several events that weekend. We absolutely loved your beautiful backyard and fire pit. The chairs were very comfortable. It was such a nice setting. The bedrooms were very comfortable as was the living room. The kitchen had everything we needed along with spices foil, oils and etc.. we had a lot of fun playing games in the basement. It was a great place to stay the weekend. I’d like to come back again when we can enjoy historic Saint Charles. Thanks again.
Great neighborhood just a short distance from the downtown streets of St. Charles. Everything was just as pictured and communication with the host was great.
We had a girls weekend to go see Shania Twain in concert. The place was the perfect size for 7 of us. Nice and quite neighborhood! We will definitely be booking again when we come to town for a concert!
Nice house, plenty of room and enjoyed the games that were provided.

Very thoughtful property. All sorts of amenities. Well kept older home in a beautiful neighborhood. Bedding was great. Kitchen was nicely furnished. One of the better rentals I’ve ever stayed in.
What a wonderful, cozy and perfect place for a few members of our daughter's wedding party and guests to stay for the long wedding weekend. Not a detail was missed and this was truly a perfect place to stay. When I (Mother of Bride) went to check into the home to drop off welcome bags for our guests I wanted to stay myself! Definitely would recommend for any St. Charles visitors!
This home is perfect. Notice I said home and not house. It has everything you need and located near Lindenwood and a short drive to historic Main St. Christy is fabulous to work with and if you are lucky you may meet the neighbor across the street. ;) 6 stars
