Brian and I managed long-term single-family rentals for many years as we raising our family, but short term stays is where our true passion lies. After falling in love with Southern IL through our own travels, we invested in two homes on Lake of Egypt, and have since expanded to a peaceful countryside escape just outside of St Louis.Perfect for those visiting the area for family celebrations or attending city events. We love sharing these special spaces with travelers and would be honored to host your next stay!
