About this property

Private River Frontage!!! Beautiful Cabin with Amazing views! Available now!!

The Walker Ford Cabin sits on two acres right on the banks of the upper Meramec River. Enjoy panoramic views of the river and the bottom hay fields. Bring chairs and sit next to the river, take a swim, dip a worm or just watch the turtles sun on the logs. Relax with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine watching for the occasional bald Eagle to soar up the river. The cabin has been newly renovated and is ready for guests. There is a beautiful rock fireplace, kitchenette, a queen size bed, queen pull out sofa and a dining table in the main cabin. The back sitting area has beautiful river views along with a twin sleeper sofa. The only thing you need when you come to our cabin is food, charcoal (if needed) and toiletries. The kitchen is fully stocked with what you may need to cook a meal and the linens and towels are also provided. There are several wineries and a canoe/raft outfitter within a mile away or bring your own canoe or kayak and float from our local access Birds Nest right down to your cabin. Shuttle service available...$35 local access and we also have kayak rentals if needed. Inquire for more details. There is a BBQ grill and washers game for your use.
If you are wanting to add more guests to your party we have options. There is tent camping available and a full electric rv hookup with water for any family member or friends wanting to stay....message for details.

Wonderful Well Appointed Weekend Getaway!

The cabin was wonderful. It had everything we needed for our weekend. The location is the perfect amount of secluded, but still near enough the town to make it a quick drive to get food or supplies. Being right on the river is great and the view is perfect!

Wonderful 35th Anniversary Celebration

We were looking for a small cabin in the woods by a river & close to home and this cabin seemed perfect. The reality was exactly as advertised and we truly enjoyed our short stay. Contacted Susan several times and she responded quickly, was very helpful. We plan to return again, for a longer stay the next time. We Highly recommend

Quiet, Calming Getaway!

The cabin is tucked away on a private drive with a lot of open space fronting the river. It's incredibly peaceful and the front room is perfect to sit and sip coffee while watching the river. We will be back!

Absolutely Perfect

What an amazing property! We enjoyed every minute of our stay. The cabin was cozy but had all the amenities and it was in a great location. And the river was absolutely amazing--easy access, not too shallow, not too deep, but just right. We would definitely stay here again!!

Beautiful Property

Susan was great to work with and overall very kind. The cabin is close enough to town to access restaurants if you dont feel like cooking but if you do the cabin has everything you might need. The view of the river was stunning and the cabin was very comfy and cozey. I hope we get the chance to stay again!

Wish it was ours!

Just what we were looking for! Peaceful and the only sound we could hear was nature! Beautiful scenery and great river access. Really enjoyed seeing three otters playing in the river! Short distance from town where we ate at two different places. Very good food and friendly people!
