You enter into the living room, there is a coat rack behind the door to hang your jacket on, kick your shoes off there if you’d like. To the left is an oversized comfy sectional and to the right is the 65 inch smart TV. The living room flows into the fully equipped kitchen and the dining area. Off the dining area you’ll enter into bedroom number one, complete with a queen size bed and a small closet. There is an extra blanket and pillow in the closet. Walk back through the kitchen area to a small hallway. The bathroom with a full shower, double vanity, fully stocked with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, cotton rounds, Qtips, plenty of towels, hair drier, and 3 rolls of toilet paper is on the left. On the right is bedroom number two with a queen size bed, there are games in a basket up top of the closet along with an extra blanket and pillow. You continue down the hall through the laundry area with a washer, drier, and supplies for a few loads of laundry. Past that is bedroom number three, with a queen size bed and a large closet, with two extra blankets and pillow. There’s also a desk and chair where one can conveniently work from the house if needed.

Although our stay was only for one night, it was absolutely wonderful! The property was clean, comfortable, welcoming, and had everything we needed. It was obvious the hosts put a lot of care into making guests feel at home. Communication was great, check-in was easy, and the entire experience was smooth from start to finish. We would definitely stay again and highly recommend it!

This property was perfect for our family of four to celebrate Easter together. Our son is a student at S&T in Rolla, and this was great for getting him out of town to spend time with him while not having to travel far. The Meramec Springs Park is a short drive from this property and is a beautiful place to take your family for the day. Loni was very kind and quick to respond. We will definitely stay here again.

Very clean with nice fenced in back yard for our pup. I liked the uncluttered rooms and appreciated all the lighting in each room. Bathroom was cute with lots of towels/shower products. We thought the check out time was 11 am, glad we checked that it was 10 am. We were visiting family close by in Steelville, MO, so very convenient. Nice place that accepted pets...hard to find. Mattie is 70 lbs. So many places do not accept big dogs. She loved it.

This property is stocked with everything you need and more. The owners have been very thoughtful to make your experience an excellent one. I would definitely stay again. The only tricky part is parking if you have more than one car, but manageable. Don't let that stop you from booking.

Stayed one night with two friends for a little girls’ night. The house is super cute and very clean! They have everything you need. We enjoyed sitting outside in back. The host was very nice when we had a question about the tv. I would recommend this stay for your trip to St. James. There is a train close by that is pretty loud, but I’m used to that so it didn’t bother me. Thanks for a great experience!
