About this property
Tranquil Two Bedroom home on 300 Acre Farm with Private River Access
Perched on a hillside overlooking the picturesque valley below, Hillside Cabin is a tranquil, two-bedroom home where you can hang your hat and truly relax. Surrounded by a working cattle ranch, you’ll have plenty of unspoiled acres to explore as well as the nearby Meramec River to enjoy. Within an easy driving distance to some of the Missouri Ozark’s most notable wineries and close to the riverside access point as well, Hillside Cabin is sure to please everyone in your group.
A Hillside Home Base
Through the front door lies the simple living area, with a plush sofa and easy chair and a large HDTV. Overhead, the galvanized metal ceiling adds an industrial feel. Around the corner is the fully-equipped galley kitchen— complete with a gas range, refrigerator, microwave, and drip coffee maker. Nearby is the formal dining space, with a farmhouse-style table that seats four next to a vintage hutch.
Inviting Sleeping Spaces
Each of the two bedrooms has plenty of privacy and peace, so everyone has the opportunity to recharge at the end of the day. The first bedroom features a comfy queen-size bed, and the second bedroom includes a full-size bed. There is also a sleeper sofa in the living area, and the full bathroom has a tub/shower combo.
A Spacious Back Porch
The large covered back porch overlooks the rolling hillside and the peaceful woodlands and includes a barbecue for grilling fresh 4J Cattle Farm burgers and steaks. There are also plenty of lounge chairs and a picnic table for alfresco dining. The large surrounding yard is vibrant green in the warmer months and includes a circular fire pit for roasting marshmallows in the twilight. Chances are, you’ll find you spend a majority of your time out here, relaxing with a local vintage wine and watching the fireflies.
Escape to Hillside Cabin
When it’s time to venture out and explore your beautiful surroundings, the private Meramec River access point is close by, with a small pavilion for riverside picnics and a bluff for the daredevils in your group to jump off. The river is great for kayaking, canoeing, and fishing, too. Hillside Cabin is the ideal escape for the whole family.

About the host
Hosted by Jessica

This idyllic location has been in my family for five generations. Originally purchased by my great-great-grandfather, my great-grandfather was born in the original farmhouse. Then my grandmother, her twin sister, my own mother, and I were all lucky enough and blessed to have grown up cradled within this picturesque and peaceful piece of land.
Excited and inspired to share our love of this land with others, my husband Justin and I started 4J Vacation Rentals in 2020 with two homes— Country Cabin & Hillside— that were each built and lived in by my grandparents and my great-grandmother. In 2021, we purchased the neighboring 16 acres and 4 cabins— Dogwood, Sassafras, Copperstone, and Murphy’s Retreat— that overlook the Meramec River, and our vision of sharing this land was magnified and expanded beyond our wildest dreams.
Additionally, Justin and I also run a nearby cattle farm, and my mom and I have started a non-profit equine therapy practice for those with special needs. Justin and I have two kids who love to run around and explore the surrounding rolling hills and sparkling riverbed, just like I did when I was a kid, and my mom did before me.
This land is a magical place we so enjoy sharing— and seeing guests like you fall in love with it is such a rewarding feeling. Waking up to see the morning sunrise through the mist as it rises off the Meramec River Valley is a truly spiritual experience— one that will effortlessly bring you the serenity and tranquility you crave, and that are so lacking in the world today. But don’t take my word for it. Book your next escape and come see us soon.

Why they chose this property
The Hillside Cabin holds a special place in my heart as it is the home that my great grandma lived in for years. It is located on the farm within a mile of our private river areas and has a great view of the valley below. At certain times of the year you will see cattle in the front pasture as you come down the driveway.
