At home getaway

The place was amazing, we were looking to do a staycation with a vacation feel and that’s exactly what we got. We explored places recommended by John the host we did not know about and his property made us feel relaxed and like we were in a different city! Thank you for such a wonderful experience, we will recommend this place and stay again!!

About the host

Hosted by John Fuglsang

Hi! I am a born and raised St. Louisan who loves traveling, working, and helping others. I have a passion for people, business, and design, and being a host gives me the opportunity to impact people's lives and show them new things! Some of my hobbies are skiing, brewing, adventure, cooking, and construction projects.

Why they chose this property

Benton Park West neighborhood offers the following attributes which I find appealing:
- Has a very small town main street feel. Cherokee business district is free of national chains
- Well preserved architecturally significant infrastructure
- Neighborhood Synergy: residents and businesses work together well despite differences in race, politics, origin, etc.
- The first retail cannabis store and cannabis lounge in STL opened here
- Interesting mix of people that are generally hardworking, accepting, and have unique stories to tell
- Not as expensive as some other neighborhoods with similar attributes

What makes this property unique

Two things:

1. Guest Convenience: Outlets and power strips are placed at arms length in most areas of the house. Essential oils, coffee, and unique amenities are provided.

2. The spirit of this neighborhood was integrated into this house renovation. Repurposing materials already onsite was prioritized over new, even at greater cost. Natural and local materials were used whenever possible. The highest quality furniture and decor was sourced, all coming from within a 10 mile radius of the house.
