Cozy vacation home just 20 minutes from Six Flags St. Louis

Super cute and fun for our entire family of 8! On the first night the kids watched a deer from the living room rummage in the yard. The location was beautiful and very spacious. A cute little cottage hiden in the woods. The host was prompt with communication, check in and out was a breeze. Loved this little place!

Memorial Day weekend at the VRBO was exactly what we needed — great weather, great company, and plenty of laughs. We spent time grilling, exploring the area, and simply disconnecting from the everyday routine. Grateful for the time spent with family at this amazing house and already looking forward to the next getaway.

Host was unresponsive to my needs for over two weeks, and i went somewhere else.

Unfortunetly we opened the door to a musty moldy wet smell with soft floors And extremely unclean furniture. The owner was very responsive right away I messaged him and he responded with an offer of a much more cleaner home down the road we could use for the night. He also offered a full refund however it has not been received as of this review. Looking back on the reviews it seems this used to be a great place. This is a very unique cabin however I wouldn't recommend it with children. Once cleaned and properly fixed structure wise I would recommend.

Love this place! Only small complaint was the couches were peeling!

Very unique and charming house, however, it is bare bones and could do with some TLC. Areas of the house were very dark, and not all the lights seemed to work properly. The grounds were overgrown, so we could not use the picnic table or fire pit. There was poison ivy growing next to the steps to the house, and the porches were full of dead leaves. I also would not recommend for anyone with mobility issues or small children, as there were steps into and out of almost every room of the house.The second night some kind of animal was on the roof for over an hour and caused quite a lot of noise, and the day we checked out we heard a mouse in the kitchen cupboards. Both of these were reported to the host with no response. Overall it was a nice house that could be lovely with some additional touches.

There were lots of bugs inside the house. Lots of ants and centipedes it kind of freaked the kids out. The power went out in the middle of the night our second night and did not come back on before we left and we could not communicate with the host until time to leave. They offered no refund or anything and just apologized for the storm.

The place definitely has character and is quirky and kitschy. I really liked its unique layout. I did not like the bugs. We killed more than a few big spiders, like larger than a quarter, several millipedes, and countless ants in the kitchen and living room with the moose head. We’d be sitting on the couch and then feel something crawling on our arm…ants! The musty smell is a bit overwhelming when you first walk in, like an old damp basement. If anyone in my group were immunocompromised, I would not have stayed. The floors are very uneven with lots of stairs and poor lighting. Do not rent this place if you have mobility concerns. There are a couple of soft spots in the flooring that felt like they were ready to buckle. Not to mention the floors being filthy and turning the bottoms of our feet totally black. Apparently there were guests that had checked out the morning before we checked in, but the cleaning between guests did not seem very thorough. The garbage from the previous guest was left under the carport instead of the garbage bin. We found a marshmallow stuck in one of the stove burners and the utensils were not completely clean. Lots of cobwebs and dust in the vents and on the ceiling fans. Strangely no curtains…

Very cool house with unique designs! The road right before the house was a little washed out so our small car was a little tricky but a truck or SUV would be fine!

We enjoyed the space available inside for my family of 5. Older home but clean, outside space overgrown and not usable but the location was great for going to Six Flags and the Arch. Was close to many attractions.

This place was hard to find. Upon arrival we notice the grass was so tall that the picnic table area was unusable. Inside was spot cleaned but could use a deep cleaning. Vents and fans were covered in dust, cobwebs in corners, tv didn't work. There is or has been recently a leak in the roof.

A little hidden back off the trail but the place was very spacious and had everything we needed. Only down to the weekend was that the yard area was not cut so we didn't feel comfortable doing a fire or adventure through the area. All and all we truly enjoyed this quirky little place

Really fun place. Lots of room to entertain, lovely views and as everyone says, quirky.We are low maintenance, and it’s a low maintenance type of place.If you just want to have a fun place to stay that isn’t just some boring antiseptic housing development, you’ll like it.Very close to Castlewood Park, where I was hoping to get some hikes and running, sadly, it was flooded out, but it’s a great park I’ve run at before. We come to STL a lot and we will return.

This property was so whimsical and fun that we would totally stay again. We came for a soccer tournament. My 4 kids loved exploring all the nooks and hidden corners! There was a kind sized bed that my husband, myself, and our 4 year old slept in, two twin beds in the top room, and two full sized pull out couches. Every room is on a different level. The moose head added a wonky charm! We loved the fireplace! This by far has been one of the most fun and charming places that we've stayed!! We will book again next year for this tournament!!

This house itself was very quirky in a good way. We felt like we were in Narnia where each door could lead to a new world and adventure.

Great place. Could definitely use a deep clean top to bottom. Host was very accommodating and fast response! Will stay again.

The cabin was much bigger then expected, its kind of quirky but cute, overall the cabin was fine for our family of 8 to stay but it would have been nice had the listing noted 4 of the 8 sleeping area were hideabed couchs with thin foam mattress. There are alot of stairs in this cabin so i would say for anyone older or with physical limitations maybe not a good idea. My MIL is 79 and the stairs were a bit hard on her and shes in pretty good shape for her age. The other thing was alot of the windows do not have coverings on them and did not lock. The host was very responsive the day of ck in and even came by and gave us more towels and sheets as there wasnt enough left out for our stay. He was vety nice. We had a fun family weekend speending time together and thats really what it was all about. Was the cabin perfect, no it wasnt but it was ok for us and we are thankful for our time together.

The house is very charming

We really enjoyed our stay. This is a unique place to stay for sure, but the house was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was pretty well stocked with what you need. Two negatives: there is a picture of a white neighboring house associated with the listing when you look at location, and the gravel part of the road could really use some repair. If we did not have a truck to navigate the snow we got while we were there, it could have been a real problem. We would stay here again.

This quirky cabin is so unique and interesting that it’s almost a destination in itself. It’s located in a beautiful area with nearby trails that offer wonderful views. The interior of the cabin is comfortable with much more room to gather than you realize from the listing.

Big beautiful home with coutry downhome feeling. Very spacious large decks many entry and exits. Scenere is definitely outdoor woodesy. Very functional with all accommodations. Will be back hopefuly longer visit next time.
