About this property

The Doxie - Townhouse in Historic Soulard

Located in the heart of Historic Soulard. Within walking distance to the neighborhood coffeeshop & used book store, Protagonist Cafe, Soulard Farmer's Market, and numerous locally-owned restaurants and bars. The Doxie is a light-filled, two-story townhouse with two bedrooms (one is a loft) and one bath. The decor is fun and comfortable with an urban feel. Amenities provided are conducive for a short or long-term stay. The brick courtyard is a relaxing space to enjoy your morning cup of coffee!
The space
The Doxie is a two-story townhouse with a private entrance and off-street assigned parking with enough room to park two vehicles in tandem (one in front of the other). The space includes a full kitchen and living room on the main floor with two bedrooms (one being a loft) and full bath on the second floor. All basic cooking essentials, linens, towels, iron, hair dryer, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, standard cable, high speed internet, and a 48" SMART TV are provided. Free washer and dryer, with complimentary laundry detergent, are located in the basement for your use.

The Doxie is next door to The Dachshund and and The Dackel, which are similar spaces to the instant listing. So, if you are looking to accommodate more than 4 guests, you can rent one, two, or three spaces at once if they are available!

* Check out my custom "Guidebook" for personal recommendations from my wife and I for places to eat, drink, and visit! The Guidebook is located in the section under map below.
Guest access
Accessing The Doxie is easy! Once you enter the rear courtyard you'll immediately see your assigned parking spot (if needed). Code locks are located on your front door. You'll be provided with a personal code prior to your check-in. The code will be the last four digits of your phone number to make it easy to remember and to comfort you that the code is personal to you and has been changed since the last guest.

The Owners (my wife Laura and I) live three City blocks from the space. We'll assume you'd like completely privacy during your visit, but if you need immediate personal assistance, we can be at your townhouse within minutes.
Other things to note
The Doxie is located within the heart of Soulard's entertainment district. While the location provides you with benefit of convenient access to great restaurants, bars, and shops, please note that the area is full of people on weekends so you will have the urban sounds associated with living in a vibrant part of an entertainment neighborhood. These sounds can include some street traffic and noise from folks walking around the neighborhood.

We operate adjacent townhomes, The Dachschund and the Dackel. To ensure your neighbors are respectful, we do NOT host guests that are local to St. Louis and/or with 0 reviews! This our non-negotiable policy. Additionally, The Doxie can accommodate a MAXIMUM of 4 guests. NO additional guests will be permitted on the property at any time for any reason during your stay.

* If you are looking for a long-term rental (two or more weeks) due to a work or family commitment, please send me a message and we can discuss a discounted rate based on the length of time of your planned extended stay.

Our stay was excellent. Jim was easy to communicate with, the directions were plain and simple, and the house was great. The AC worked great which was necessary with the August heat. It’s such an ideal location so it was so accessible to everything we had scheduled. The area is great too with easy access to coffee shops, bars and restaurants. If we ever go to Soulard or STL again, we would absolutely stay here again. I highly recommend this property and host!

Great location for a stay in St Louis, and right off the interstate. Lots of little restaurants and pubs within walking distance, and the area is pretty safe. Downside is the noise at night, but this didn’t deter from our stay. I’d definitely come back! Host left lots of recommendations for places to see and try out. I’d definitely go back!

We loved The Doxie house and getting in and out of the property was super easy. Someone mentioned the stairs, yes they are steep be aware , but I have 2 bad knees and managed them just fine. The kitchen was a dream. We didn’t use it but so wonderful. We had all we needed with our stay. Would definitely rent again. Beautiful decor though out the rental.

Enjoyed the stay, the place was nice. The owner was great, we had an issue and asked him about it and he got out to the place and fixed it right away. A few notes however, if you have a hard time with stairs this is not the place for you. Bedrooms are upstairs and the stairs are steep.

Great location close to everything 10mins away from City Museum, Foundry, Arch, Union Station etc. Beds were very comfortable. Bring a sound machine it’s loud at night bars are everywhere around the area but we slept good with the machine on. The place needs a good deep clean inside and outside it does look a bit dilapidated but for the price it’s sort of expected to not be perfect. Owner allowed us to check in early which was a bonus and was very easy to communicate with.

Stayed for my 30th birthday weekend with some friends. The Moxie was a great place to stay for this type of occasion or any occasion for that matter! It was true to the pictures you see on the site! Very clean and well taken care of. The location is perfect for walking to everything in Soulard, we didn’t drive anywhere the entire weekend, it was great! We also felt very safe with our two private parking spaces. The host was a terrific communicator as well, very responsive. All in all it was one of my best birthdays! I highly recommend this spot!

We had an amazing time in St. Louis, and staying at The Doxie was absolutely perfect. Its location couldn’t have been better—right across the street from a shuttle to the ballpark and just a few minutes to downtown. The unit had everything we needed. and the neighborhood was lively and vibrant. We wouldn’t hesitate to book here again!

Nice getaway

We were very happy with the rental and the owners were very pleasant. The only downside would be the location is right by a bar and the noise level went on until one in the morning. The house itself was very charming and we appreciated the amenities left by the owners.

About the host

Hosted by James T Lettau

Host profile image
My wife, Laura, and I are transplants to St. Louis. She is from Philadelphia and I am from Pittsburgh. We moved here in 2012 for new jobs, met each other, and fell in love with each other and St. Louis! We live in Soulard and are very passionate about this neighborhood. We own two businesses in Soulard, Protagonist Cafe (the local coffeeshop and used bookstore) and Pieces (a board game bar and restaurant). We live above the coffeeshop and are highly active in neighborhood groups and boards. Laura loves to compare us to Luke and Lorelai from The Gilmore Girls, especially after we started our AirBNB and Vrbo journey!

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property from a long-time resident of Soulard who operated this space as a short-term rental for 30 years! The moment we stepped foot on it, we knew it was magical. The moment you step on the property you are surrounded by an open-air Courtyard filled with beautiful foliage and aged ivy cascading up the historic brick building. It truly is a quiet oasis away from the urban setting. The Dackel itself is a modern, clean, renovated space that makes you feel at ease the moment you enter. The first thing we hear most of our guests do upon arrival is throw on a record, pop open a bottle of complimentary wine, and relax.

What makes this property unique

Location! Location! Location! You are walking distance from quaint coffeeshops, the highly popular and historic Soulard Farmer's Market, and bars and restaurants (many of which are known for their gorgeous outdoor courtyards and patios). The Dackel is also a 5 minute Uber drive from Downtown so you can easily access the Arch, the Cardinal's, the Blues, music venues, and the new Ferris Wheel and Aquarium! If you're more of a homebody, you can avoid the bustling activity outside by cozying up and making dinner as we provide all utensils for cooking. We are also within walking distance of a locally-owned grocer, Vincent's Market.
