Fall Family Getaway

This was a great place to use as home base for our adventures in St. Louis. We were close to grocery stores to get our eat in food with plenty of options for dining out. Grandma’s cookies less than a block away was also a huge plus. We were able to stroll the shops of St Charles and take evening walks along the river.

Fantastic house

My family and I stayed here this past week. The house was awesome! The kids had a blast with all the games and my wife was super happy with how close the house was to the Main Street. We had an awesome time here and hope to be able to return again.

Fun with Family

The property was in a great location to downtown, we were able to enjoy the area each day just by a short walk. The St. Louis area was only about a 30min drive which was convenient as well. The house was very relaxing and provided a nice home for the week. We would definitely recommend this house to others for a wonderful experience in St. Charles, MO.

St Charles guest house

This was within walking distance to everything downtown St Charles had to offer. There is a trolley on the weekends that will drive you to other attractions and gives info on the towns history. We stayed 4th July weekend and could see the fireworks perfect from the sitting area outside. The house was very clean and had all the accommodations we needed. We will definitely be back.

The Guest House Company

Everything was as advertised. A couple of things would be an improvement. Hooks and closet space. The downstairs, below ground bedroom has a lot of stairs to go up and down to the bathroom. There is no hook or closet space at all for that bedroom and we were there for a wedding. We had to unload the baby equipment just to get a foot of space to hang up suits and long dresses. If you don't need closet space-this will be perfect for a family. The people are very nice and attentive to requests. We would recommend the location. Very walkable... to Grandma's Cookies!

Perfect family getaway!

Absolutely perfect home for our family getaway (2 adults, 2 kids, 12 and 8). The home is very well appointed and maintained. Fun layout with unique nooks for everyone to enjoy. The owners were very responsive and respectful. Check in and check out could not have been easier. Huge grocery store is a five minute drive. We had been looking for a home base to do tourist things in St. Louis (which it was perfect for, nearly everything we did in St. Louis was an easy 30 minute drive from this property), but had no idea how nice St. Charles is! The property is literally half a block from the cutest, quaintest downtown you might ever run across. Cobblestone streets, historic buildings, parks and open spaces, bike paths, and tons of boutique shops and one of a kind restaurants. There’s a 1700s chapel right across the street from the property! We ended up spending a lot of time in and around St. Charles. 10/10, highly recommend! I will be recommending this town and this property to friends and family.

Cute house with character

The location couldn’t get any better. Steps from the Main Street of old town St Charles where all the shops and restaurants are. Quiet neighborhood with a walking trail on the water. House is adorable. Lots of places to sleep. The downstairs bed was very comfy. Even the pillows were great! Shuffleboard is a bonus for the kids. Had everything we needed and exceeded our expectations.

Great location

House was wonderful. Location was fantastic. Beds were very comfortable. Only issue I had were the stairs were kind of steep going to 2nd floor bedrooms but that's more about my age and knees. House had everything you needed and the game room was fun. Wish we had more time to actually stay at the house and enjoy it. Would definitely rent again.
