About the host
Hosted by Olga Marquez
Hi! We’re sisters, Monica and Olga — California-born but small-town at heart.
We fell in love with Missouri’s wine country and the charm of the Katy Trail years ago, and we’ve been building this dream ever since.
The Mercantile on the Katy Trail is our way of sharing it: a welcoming, thoughtfully restored space where travelers, families, cyclists, and wine lovers can slow down, settle in, and enjoy the rhythm of this special corner of Missouri.

Why they chose this property
We fell in love with McKittrick because it feels like Missouri’s best-kept secret — a quiet little town with history, grit, and direct access to the Katy Trail.
It’s peaceful but not isolated, with beautiful views, friendly neighbors, and a location that’s just a few minutes from the heart of Hermann.
Being right on the trail makes it a cyclist’s dream, and we loved the idea of restoring a historic mercantile building that was once a hub for the community.
Now, it’s a place for travelers to reconnect, recharge, and experience the Katy Trail and wine country at their own pace.

What makes this property unique
The McKittrick Suite is unlike anything else on the Katy Trail — a restored 1897 loft inside a former mercantile and music hall, now transformed into a warm, stylish retreat.
Original hardwood floors and soaring ceilings bring the past to life, while updated amenities like a full kitchen, smart TV, and clawfoot tub offer all the comfort of a boutique stay.
Guests love the history, the character, and the peace. Step outside and you're on the Katy Trail at Mile Marker 100.8 — no driving needed. Whether you're cycling in, prepping for a wedding, exploring Missouri wine country, or just escaping the city, this suite blends location, charm, and comfort in a way that truly stands out.
Add in the Hermann trolley and Lyft U Up pickup, Casey's pizza delivery, and access to outdoor patio seating for grill and fire pit. The walkable small-town feel of McKittrick right off the trailhead, and you’ve got a place that’s both practical and unforgettable.
