Our house was destroyed and needed a temporary home while we waiting for insurance to arrange our apartment. They allowed us to stay and it was great area near forest park and dog town.

We were so happy to have found this treasure of a home so close to the hospital where we were staying with our daughter during the day for a week, only a 5-minute drive. The home has so much character! My husband remarked that it reminded him of the farmhouse he grew up in in Idaho Falls. Original fixtures, woodwork and tile, pretty cool! Of course, what you get with that is some creaky floorboards, but I got pretty good at ninja walking at night to not wake up my husband! ha! Very nice, remodeled kitchen. SUPER comfy king-sized bed and soft sheets. (the most important thing for us after a long day). HOT, great pressure water and fluffy white towels.It was also nice to be able to park right in front of the house. It was close to shopping and restaurants, so very convenient all the way around. We didn't have time to visit anything, but we understand that there is plenty to do nearby as well.Jeremy was a great host. Very quick to respond, even in the evenings. Thank you!

Really great stay - beautiful place. There was a city wide power outage during our stay, and Jeremy was SO helpful and responsive. Highly recommend and will return.

Me and my wife decided to take a trip for our wedding anniversary and this place made everything enjoyable. Close to all the great features St Louis has to offer but it’s not an over populated area. Kinda makes you forget you’re on vacation because it felt like home!
