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 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!

We had such a great stay for our family Christmas at the Hillside Hideaway! The weather was amazing so we were able to enjoy the outdoor activities, and had plenty room for everyone to enjoy the festivities. Already discussing retuning for a summer gathering. The place had everything we needed and more! Emma was an incredible host!
The place was amazing, great location, well stocked and supplied and family friendlyI would rate this out of 5 stars a 10cannot say enough about this place

A great spot for a family getaway
Everything you need for a wonderful weekend. Between the game room, the pool and the sand, our grandkids wore themselves out. Great outdoor kitchen for easy mealtimes. Emma's thought of all the things that make this a relaxing place to atay.
Another great stay. Plenty to do. Pool was wonderful when the heat index was over 100! Nice fire pit, outdoor kitchen. Kitchen is well stocked. Comfy beds.

Great family vacation!
Our family recently stayed at Hillside Hideaway. We ranged in age from 5 to 75!
This is a great place to stay. The house, pool, outdoor kitchen, sand court, hot tub
all were wonderful. Emma is great to work with and the kitchen has everything you could possibly need. This is our second stay and we hope to be back again next year!

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!
Large fence surrounding property! Great for kids and family.

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.
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!
We had space to spread out for privacy but room to join for meals & together time. There were heat advisories but very cool indoors or swimming in the spacious pool. Perfect accommodations!
Thanks, Emma

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!

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.

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.
We had an excellent experience at the Bauman’s Hillside Hideaway. It was spacious enough to accommodate our large family. The fireplace and fire pit were great additions to add to our visit. The game room had something for everyone.
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!
Our first impression driving up we couldn’t believe how lucky we were to find this place. It was just as pictured inside and outside. The amenities were abundant we couldn’t have asked for anything more. It was super hot when we were there so the pool and everything about the pool was amazing. I especially loved that it had an automatic pool cover for little ones safety.
The photos do not give justice to this beautiful property. Emma had us feeling right at home. The thought that has been done to provide everything imaginable is utterly amazing. One of the most kid friendly places we've ever seen. Can't wait to return during the summer.

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.
The house was immaculate and the owner went above and beyond with the amenities!
We booked this house for a bachelorette weekend in wine country, and were disappointed we didn’t have more time at this house! All of the games, pool, and hot tub were amazing. You could spend your whole weekend at this house and not have to leave. Every girl on the trip was talking about trying to come back with friends or family for a fun weekend!
