Just 35 miles from St. Louis and 2 miles from the charming town of Augusta, MO.

An ideal romantic destination, a girl's getaway or a special family excursion. This well appointed, newer home offers all luxurious ammenities including modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, satellite TV and complimentary welcome basket.
Swim, canoe (boat provided), kayak (boat provided), paddleboat (boat provided), hike the trails on the property or nearby Klondike Park, fish, bbq, sit fireside, sip wine, visit local wineries and relax in total privacy in wonderful accommodations.
We look forward to responsible renters who will appreciate what this home and the area has to offer.
The property was very well-stocked but some of the toiletries and supplies could use updating (soap was crumbly, air freshener was from 2004). There were lots of items leftover from previous stays in the fridge and freezer which was unappetizing. We had some wildlife “fun” in the house with lots of bugs, wasps, and even a poor frog who needed rescuing which led us to believe no one had really freshened things up before our arrival. The floors were also pretty dirty. The gravel road in was very rough in places accessing the property-we had a four wheel drive truck and struggled at points to keep going. The lake out back was beautiful and we enjoyed it thoroughly! However, large amounts of wasp nests all along the back porch made us uneasy to spend any time out there. Overall, the house had great charm but the cleanliness was lacking. We understand we were in the woods and a rural setting, but more care to prepare for our arrival would have been much appreciated. A welcome basket was very nice but spiders in the showers were not.
The house was great and the response from our host was first class. The beds an linens were awesome and the kitchen was well stocked. We hope to be back soon
So beautiful, we stayed in the late fall/early winter. would love to come back in the summer.
This is a beautiful property, located in a beautiful part of Missouri. It looks like a very old farmhouse, yet the inside is modern. The lake is great and the family caught some fish while we were bbq'ing. Just know that it is a little far away from certain services (Grocery is about 15 miles away). Just come with your groceries and you will love it.
We really enjoyed staying at your property. Everything was either as described or better- including a lovely welcome basket *Thank you!!* - While we were there, we discussed renting again for another getaway possibly next year. The location was just right, not too far from civilization but far enough where everything was very private. I could sit on the back porch ALL DAY and just enjoy the views. Thank you again, and we hope to stay again in the future!
Very cozy property. We loved it and will likely come back. Lake is great from swimming!
A beautiful, very private weekend retreat. Full access to the lake, swimming, fishing, barbecuing, etc. Owner's very responsive to questions and requests. Thank you for a great weekend!
And beautiful house on a private little lake. Everything you need for a fun weekend- paddle boat, canoe, dock, floaties, grill. A lot of wineries nearby!
It was a very warm weekend and the air conditioning was refreshing. We enjoyed swimming and kayaking on the private lake. Good place for our family to gather in the great room. Everything we could wish for!
We rented the property for the 25th Anniversary Master National Retriever Club AKC Hunting Test competition held at August A. Busch Memorial Wildlife Conservation Area. The location was awesome half way between Busch Conservation Area and Purina Farms. The wineries on 94 were a special treat. The Defiance Roadhouse in Defiance, MO, was the bomb. Atmosphere was great; staff was greater; food was greatest. This VRBO property is very secluded on a private road and lake. Very relaxing. Someplace we would be willing to return to without an agenda and just hang out. Thank you Pete and Janet!
