About this property

Secluded Private Cabin with Pool, hot tub, fireplace & so much more

The Bauman's Hillside Hideaway is amazingly spacious, amenity rich 5-bedroom 3.5 bath Rustic home in a private/wooded setting in Ste. Genevieve County. With accommodations for up to 16 guests, this unique property is great for couples, families, friends, business retreats & mastermind sessions and small gatherings. Featuring a staggering 40' private in-ground heated swimming pool, hot tub, sand volleyball court, horseshoe pits, fire pit, outdoor kitchen and endless indoor/outdoor activities. This home truly offers a one-of-a-kind experience.

This property is only 7 miles from historic downtown Ste. Genevieve & only 7 - 15 mile drive through rolling hills to wine country. It can comfortably sleep 11 guests in beds (2 King rooms, 2 Queen rooms, 1 room with 2 twin's & 1 of the twins has a trundle). We also have 3 roll away beds & 2 full size baby beds that can be put in some of the larger bedrooms and/or in common areas. It is great for all types of travelers! If you're in need of a calm relaxed getaway you could soak in the hot tub and listen to your favorite music, go out on the deck to do yoga while collecting your thoughts and breathing the fresh country air, catch a nice tan in the pool laid back on the chaise lounge chair with the water from the bubblers lightly splashing you to keep you cool, or just simply poor a glass of wine, snuggle up on the comfy couch with a big fire in the fireplace and watch your favorite movie on the big screen with surround sound while your supper is out in the smoker. Or you may just have competitive family and friends and want to compete in a tournament playing horseshoes, sand volleyball, darts, washers, ping pong and pool, while grandpa cooks his mouth-watering steaks on the grill. In the mornings you can have your hot cup of coffee out on the deck before the rest of the world awakes watching the birds and squirrels playing, or the super comfortable mattresses may talk you in to staying in bed till lunch. (WARNING) If you are looking for some place to be bored with nothing to do and be uncomfortable while not doing it, this may not be the place for you!

Bedrooms have a 32" smart TV with DISH (only 4 bedrooms), Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, etc. The Main level of the home has 2 bedrooms, and 1 bathroom with a Jacuzzi tub/shower & custom cedar/barn wood vanity. A very large fully-equipped kitchen with a raised bar island with seating for 3, Custom made River table with seating for 8, 32" smart TV and a Sonos speaker, flows right into the living room that has a beautiful 18' tall fireplace made out of stone brought from the rocky mountains of Colorado , a 60" smart TV, Sonos surround system with Alexa, sectional, 2 recliners & access to all of the outdoor features.

There is a beautiful cedar staircase that takes you to the 2nd story loft that has access to upper deck w/ hot tub, laundry room, master bedroom, 2 additional bedrooms with a shared (Jack & Jill) full bathroom. The cozy master bedroom has a private bath with a walk in 2-person stone/tile shower & private access to the upper deck.

The temperature controlled over-sized garage has a pool table, Ping-Pong table, darts, washers, Sonos speaker, commercial ice maker and a 1/2 bath. From the garage you have direct access to all of the great Outdoor features which include cooking area equipped with gas grill and pellet smoker.

POOL!!!! 40' heated inground fiberglass pool, 6' 5" at deep end with 2 deep end bench seats, the shallow end features an 7' long Tanning ledge (9" depth) with 2 in-water chaise lounge chairs and 3 bubbler jets. It is also equipped with a KEYED automatic pool cover that takes less than a minute to open and close which makes using the pool a breeze and if you are traveling with small children this is a great safety feature!

The Sonos Speaker system is the icing on the cake for this property! You can connect your own playlist or use the available music services we provide, play different music on each individual speaker simultaneously or group them to enjoy the same song on all. Given that the property is so private you can turn the music up to max volume and it won't bother anyone!!

Beautiful, relaxing stay!

Endless opportunities for activities (games, etc.). Warm refreshing pool (even in October!) Emma was very sweet and helpful - awesome recommendation on the coffee shop! Outdoor kitchen area was nice. All areas of the home were extremely clean. Being able to log in speaker system was a definite plus. Enjoyed the back yard spaces, which were together yet separated for various activities. Secluded and private. Beautifully decorated.

4th stay and we’ll be back!!

Most well stocked kitchen/house/outside place we’ve been. Nothing forgotten by Jemma properties. 13 of us from ages 7-78 and we all enjoyed our Friday-Monday private oasis. We don’t leave after we get there until checkout time. We cook, bake and grill and never at a loss for a skillet or pan. 2 refrigerators and the industrial ice maker keep us cooled off after hot days playing in the sand court badminton (took our own) and pool days. Beds are comfortable and Emma quickly responds to inquiries. Trying to get our next trip back planned as we left.

Fabulous Family Gathering Spot

We stayed with our adult children for 3 nights exploring the area. The weather was unexpectedly stormy but didn’t dampen our enjoyment of the property. Probably the best equipped place we’ve stayed, we appreciated all the amenities. Thanks so much, Emma, for your gracious hospitality.

Special Weekend with Extended Family

We came in town for a short weekend, as a group of 14. Plenty of room for all of us and lots of activities for all ages. The kitchen is very well stocked with everything you could need. We are already talking about returning to this property, or the neighboring one. Thanks, Emma for your hospitality!

Per usual - amazing family vacation

This is our third year in a row at Hillside Hideaway and we look forward to it every year. Emma and Joe have provided everything you’d ever want to have fun - pool, hot tub, sand volleyball court, beautiful outdoor kitchen, outdoor fire area and more! They are incredibly responsive and take great ownership of their property. It also comes fully stocked with bathroom essentials, plenty of towels and all kind of games/activities. I’m constantly recommending this place to friends and family for an amazing getaway that’s less than an hour from St Louis. Can’t wait to be back in 2024!

Funnest House this Side of the Mississippi

Hillside Hideaway is everything you could ever want in a vacation rental property. Our family enjoyed the pool most of all, all our kids LOVED the giant sandbox/sand volleyball court. Our middle child learned to play poker and dominated the adults suckered into his games. I, the wife, had plenty of cooking space in the kitchen for the countless hours I spent doing what I love; cooking for family/friends. My husband greatly appreciated the washer and dryer, as he did laundry as much as he possibly could!

Perfect!!

THIS PLACE! I honestly can’t say enough about how amazing this home was. And the owners! They missed nothing. Every comfort and amenity that you could think of was available and provided. If you’re looking to get away for a family vacation, an adult trip, just a weekend with your spouse, 💯% recommend. My family of 12 (ages 8mo to 43) had so much fun with the ping-pong, pool table, the pool, outdoor kitchen with smoker, horseshoes, badminton and fire pits with s’mores, listening to the whole stereo system and just focusing on being present and having fun. The beds were comfortable. The pool was very warm. The kitchen has everything you need. Literally everything was top notch!

The best stay!

We stayed here with a group of 11 girls for my sister’s bachelorette party and it was absolutely perfect - exceeding ALL expectations. The entire place was spotless. The inside had everything you would possibly need, in a very organized and easy to find manner. It has the coziest vibe with plenty of room for gatherings and games of all kinds. The outside area is unbelievable. We utilized the fire pit area, pool and hot tub. If we were there longer we also would have loved to play sand volleyball. We visited local wineries while we were there, and although they were fabulous as well, we were mostly excited to get back to the house to hangout! The host has seriously thought of everything you need for a comfortable and successful stay! They are so personable - leaving snacks and drinks of your preference. We would absolutely recommend this place!

Fully stocked house with awesome amenities!

One of the best places I have ever rented! The kitchen is very well stocked with plenty of dishes, pots, pans, baking dishes, utensils, spices, and daily COFFEE. The bathrooms have shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and lotion. Emma is an excellent host who makes sure you feel welcome, by being available and providing a nice welcome gift and ingredients for s’mores. If you are looking for a place to get away, but have plenty to do while you’re there, this is it! We enjoyed using the pool table, darts, and ping pong table every day. The hot tub on the deck was awesome! The wet, cooler weather kept us inside most of the time, but the other outdoor amenities looked great as well. The Sonos speaker system is easy to use and lets you listen to music through the whole house and outdoors. There’s also a washer and dryer, with detergent and fabric softener provided. Most places, you have to bring every little thing you need yourself, but Emma seems to have thought of everything! It’s nice to go somewhere and not have to worry about anything! What a great, relaxing vacation it was for the whole family!

This place was fabulous - the kitchen had plenty of dishes, cookware, appliances, spices. Lots of games available to play. Bathroom well stocked with things like toilet paper, cotton balls, q-tips, hand soap, hand sanitizer, shampoo, conditioner, and body lotion. Very thoughtful touches if you were traveling with 2 year olds. Pool was awesome. Our family wants to plan to stay here again!

Tremendous Family Vacation!

The Hideaway was awesome! Many amenities. The Smores were unexpected but appreciated! We loved the piped in music and outdoor kitchen by the pool. The kids loved the sand by the volleyball pit. That outdoor shower was then necessary. So many extras. Thank you!

Great Family Getaway

This is our second time staying here and we love it! The kids and adults both enjoy the pool and hot tub, as well have having our annual ping pong tournament and sand volleyball games. S’mores at the fire pit is a great way to end the night. The cabin has all the amenities/supplies you will need for your trip. We will definitely be back!

Best in the Midwest

I have been bringing my family here for the past 6 years are we are currently planning to come again next year for our 7th year in a row. The secluded location of the property and all the different amenities are amazing and have provided years of memories for my family. We've searched to find similar properties in the Midwest and haven't found anything that compares to what the Hillside Hideaway offers. To make things even better, the owners are great people and we enjoy talking with them every year when we come.

Amazing Property - Everything In One Place

Property was amazing as were the hosts. We stayed for a week and had family and friends over the course of the week. It was a perfect venue with a large kitchen to gather with anything you could possibly need (including a drawer full of spices in case you forgot something ;), a game room for hanging/playing games, and the living room has a large TV and surround sound with a huge sofa so we enjoyed watching a movie or two. There is a Sonos sound system that covers every area of the property which was awesome since we do enjoy our music! The outdoor amenities are THE GREATEST. It was winter, so couldn't enjoy to the fullest but can imagine what a score in good weather. We used the awesome firepit, horseshoe pit and hot tub! The outdoor bar is a great space, but it was just too cold to be far from the fire. Same for the lighted volleyball pit but there is so much attention to detail in all of the amenities. Everything was easy and comfortable. The hosts were super attentive and helpful. Thank you, Emma!

A beautiful and cozy hidden gem

This spot offers everything that you can ask for and more. We celebrated a 40th birthday with 8 couples but it is also ideal for families with children of all ages. There are endless entertainment options both indoor and outdoor. Emma is great to work with as well. She is very informative and helpful from before we arrived and even while we were there. We had one small issue, however, she was there within minutes and the issues was resolved. We scheduled the Ste. Genevieve Trolley to pick us up and drop us off at the house for the winery tour throughout the beautiful wine country. Would highly recommend this as well. It was the perfect mix of relaxation and entertainment.
