The Music Box Chalet - Innsbrook Resort
Tucked back on a 3 acre lot and located 50 minutes west of St. Louis, this rustic, modern 1000 sq. foot chalet has been completely renovated in August of 2021 with new hardwood, updated fixtures and all new furnishings throughout. Located across the street from lake St. Gallen, it is a short drive or walk to the beach where we have 2 kayaks and 1 paddleboard available for our guests. We also provide noodles, life jackets, beach chairs, beach towels and beach toys! If a bigger lake is what you are after, we are 5 minutes from lake Aspen where you can rent pontoon boats, fishing boats, kayaks, paddleboards and lily pads.
The chalet is perfect for a family or friends getaway (sleeping a maximum of 6 people) with a king-master bedroom suite on the main level and a loft with 4 twin beds. We offer a full kitchen with essentials provided (coffee, tea, dish & hand soap, and paper towels) two full size baths shower and shower/tub combo, a great room with an indoor wood-burning fireplace and an expansive deck with seating areas for entertaining or relaxing. There is also a larger outdoor firepit and a BBQ grill (charcoal not provided). We have carefully curated a vinyl collection and some instruments for your enjoyment while visiting and there are several board games that our family loves in the chaise storage bench as well as bocce ball and washers for outdoor play and a basket of kids toys in the loft.

The areas directly around the chalet are treated monthly for mosquitoes, spiders, insects and rodents. While we can’t guarantee a bug-free stay in the middle of the woods, we do our part to minimize these unwanted critters. Please note, there are rodent boxes placed strategically throughout and around the property. If you have small children, please move these out of reach during your stay and replace before you leave.
We will send a welcome message with all the codes and directions to make sure you are well prepared for your vacation and will be available to ensure your questions are answered quickly before and during your visit.

Delightfully cozy cabin - they made such good use of the space. Very clean. Great coordination with host when we added an additional night at the last minute!!
Everything about the stay was super! The chalet was adorable and tidy, check in was a breeze and the lake access with kayaks and equipment were all a part of a relaxing weekend getaway. I would totally recommend staying here and taking advantage of all the Innsbrook community has to offer.
Wife and I spent the weekend and truly enjoyed the location and all the amenities. The kayaks were awesome to have, we hiked, used the fire pit, and just enjoyed the surroundings. Only suggestion would be new speakers for the record player.
The cabin was a wonderful weekend getaway for our family. We loved the record player and the classic Elton John and Billy Joel records. We also really enjoyed using the kayaks and playing at the little lake. The community pool was also really nice with the lazy river.
The Music Box Chalet was a wonderful stay for our group. It was exceptionally clean and well stocked. Loved the decor and the vinyl selection. The location is surrounded by caing trees but only a short walk or drive to the beach. Highly recommend.
Kimm and her husband were both great hosts. If I have to give any feedback for improvement it would be to include more towels for the summer stays. Between the pool and lake we had to make a laundromat trip. We refilled the sugar, trash bags, dish soap and coffee. A check on supplies before a stay may be helpful. But overall it was good. We really like the Innsbrook resort with a great balance of quiet and activity.
We had a really great time in the Music Box Chalet at Innsbrook. The cabin was clean, nicely decorated and comfortable. They had the kitchen nicely supplied with everything you would need, including toaster oven, blender, Keurig, crock pot, etc. I would definitely recommend it to others
The chalet was perfect for a quiet bday trip out of the city. The kitchen was stocked, it was clean, quiet and looked just like the pictures. Enjoyed a fire outside and being surrounded by nature! Cute little market/cafe right up the road for last minute items or Starbucks coffee and we also enjoyed several of the hiking trails. Highly recommend!

Kimm was pleasant and very easy to work with. Check in process was smooth and the property was as advertised. We have stayed a handful of times in Innsbrook. We have favorited this location to come back to over others! The property was great and was clean upon arrival. 5/5 and would go back!
The Music Box was everything that we expected. A great place for relaxing and close enough to the golf course and clubhouse. The outside fire pit was well lite for evening use. The large deck area was perfect for sitting outside and enjoying nature!
We were at this house really only to sleep. It was clean, beds were comfortable, and the host is easy to communicate with. She gets back to you quickly. Our time at Innsbrook was very enjoyable. We kayaked, went paddle boarding, worked out in the gym, and hung out with some family who were staying nearby, also in Innsbrook.
The house was clean, well decorated and fully stocked with kitchen appliances. The only improvement I would recommend is window coverings. All windows were fully exposed.

Thanks for your feedback Arika. We are toying with some different types of window coverings - trying to strike a balance so we don't completely block out nature : )
Beautiful and comfortable home. Had all we needed for cooking. Lots of firewood for the fire pit. Had a difficult time finding beach close to home. Other than that, no complaints. Concert and pool time was fantastic!

Thank you for the great review Kelly, we appreciate it. Sorry you had trouble finding the beach - St. Gallen lake is across the street and the beach has a quick left turn about 3 minutes down the road that is a little hidden. Hope you come back to Innsbrook!
We spent 10 days at innsbrook. We picked here because it is close to st Charles and my kids with their kids could come at different times. The home was really nice. The main level was great for us to sit and visit with each other. The upstairs had plenty of beds. The outdoors was great for a night around the fire. Even thought it was not on the lake it was a three minute drive and the granddaughters loved it!!! Would definitely go back!!

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Property was much smaller than we though it would be. Watch your head in the loft. Check in was easy. Kitchen was fine. No ice tray, heads up. Overall not the cleanest but it was fine. No extra towels for bathing (three for each person). No laundry units. Something to consider would be bring extra towels. WiFi was fine. Close to beach/lake, five min drive down the road. Not a lot of firewood at all so we bought some. Good record selection.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're glad you found the check-in process to be easy and enjoyed the proximity to the lake, as well as our record collection.
While we are sorry to hear the chalet felt small to you, we do provide the exact square footage in our listing to manage expectations prior to arrival. Our listing also explicitly notes that there are no laundry facilities on the premises as we are on a septic system.
Also, we leave enough firewood to fill the firepit twice and 3 towels per guest. I apologize if this fell short of your expectations.
We will certainly take your feedback on the ice tray and purchase new ones before our next guest.
Best,
Kimm
This chalet was super clean and stocked really well. Perfect for a group of friends or a larger immediate family weekend getaway. The area was quiet and private. Two large bathrooms really helped, and the beds were comfy. Really beautiful chalet in a beautiful location. If it was warmer we would have taken advantage of the outside seating area with the beautiful lights strung. Host had great communication from the get go; everything was thought of and outlined for us so we had no questions. Thank you!
