    There was wonderful communication with the host throughout our booking that let us know what was available to us during our stay. This is our second time booking this home, we will hopefully be able to do so again next year!

    We came to the beautiful Meramec Spring for a music festival, and this was a great cozy home just a short drive away. If camping is not necessarily your thing, I’d recommend this VRBO for comfort and convenience. The beds were comfy, which is a must for me. We didn’t spend a lot of time here, but it was quiet and peaceful for sleeping and grabbing some coffee in the morning. It’s right in town, and the road to the Park is winding (and dark at night, just beware). Overall great, already reserved again.

    The only problem we had was regarding not having hot water. My son, a plumber has installed tankless hot water systems and was aware that if there is not enough flow the system will not turn on to heat the water. We found that if we turned on other faucets while using the shower hot water was available. I don't know how most people would know this.

    Overall it was a good stay, we had a good time. Just FYI, the window in the second bedroom near the bathroom does not lock. The microwave was super dirty and there was trash left under the bed in the back room. There were no paper towels and the first bathroom had a black ring around the tub.

    The stay was for a canoe trip. The house was clean and just as advertised. The neighborhood was quiet and safe. We would definitely stay again.
