Driftwood River Lodge on the Meramec River. Steelville, MO.

Perfect place to stay for a large group. Plenty of space, kitchen adequately stocked, very easy booking and check-in/out process. The only drawback is the air conditioning situation. There are several mini splits throughout but only 2 of them work properly. We also rented the Red Cabin along with Driftwood and found the same situation. Still worth 5 stars based on everything else.

May seem trivial to some, but we Really liked that there were fans in the bedrooms. Huge dining area, and patio / deck spaces. AC kept it very cold. Everything was clean and in good working order. Bed in master was comfy!

We chose this beautiful lodge for the bridesmaids and prep spot for the bride! It worked out so perfectly as absolutely huge with three bathrooms and massive kitchen and living areas for visiting. The care taker, Herkley deserves 15 stars! He was incredibly helpful and responsive before and during the stay.we super appreciated how easy it was for us! The back decks are just gorgeous. The girls had coffee on them each morning and the relaxing atmosphere was absolutely perfect for the bride getting ready for her big day!!! Our spouses got so jealous of how awesome it was I have no doubt we will all be back again. Beautiful space, hidden among the woods and a great caretaker to help with anything you need! Thank you so much for making our weekend perfect. See you soon!

Very spacious, quiet, relaxing getaway spot.

Great place to stay for our weekend River Rafting trip.

Second time staying here, and we will definitely be coming back again! LOVED spending 2 days just sitting in the water watching all the floaters going by. The house is always clean and has so much room for our group of ladies! Jan is ALWAYS so kind and very quick in responding! One of our Favorite Happy Places!

Great property. As described. Owner was easy to communicate with and very accommodating. Lots of room for our family consisting of 2 grandparents, 2 parents and 2 teens. Kitchen was huge and well equipped with new appliances. Bedrooms and living areas were comfortable, clean and spacious. The property is gorgeous and very secluded, but very easy to find, and close to town should you need anything. We would love to come back during the summer to take advantage of the river and gravel bar for swimming.

We had a wonderful weekend, and the host is marvelous. Thank you for everything.

Driftwood Lodge was so spacious for our Over 50 group of 8 Ladies! Jan was so easy to communicate with before, during & after the whole stay. We're already talking about coming back for a summer visit as it's so close to the river and it's such a comfortable place in regards to living space so you're not on top of one another. Great Weekend Getaway!!!

This was a great place! Close to town but secluded! Clean and comfortable!
