We spent a cold November Saturday outside by the fire!Host was very quick to respond, and made the stay even better!Definitely anyone staying here needs to go to the Bourbon Cafe! Great coffee and breakfast!

Everything was great! Only thing I can say is just having some quarts of wood by the property to grab more firewood if needed.

Response from Management on 6 Nov 2026
Im Sorry you felt that having us come out again to refill the wood boxes twice and refill the artisian water twice, you were unhappy that you didnt have more wood avaiLable. These are complimentay provisions and getting a phone call at 7:00 at night to ask for your wood to be refilled for a third time, i beleive it was to a point of be taken advantage of. For a three night stay 4 boxes of firewood is more than enough. In the future, please buy extra wood in town. Again this is complintary, and saying ev was fantastic except you wanted more wood was unfair. Christie

We had a wonderful trip to MO. We enjoyed the cabin. It was clean and peaceful. Kids enjoyed some catch and release in the pond. We gazed at the stars. We enjoyed the outdoor fireplace and porch. And I enjoyed the well appointed coffee bar. We had everything we needed and then some (surprise chocolate chip cookies OMG delicious! We all ate way too many.). I appreciated the kid friendly kitchen items. Christie and her husband were a delight and even helped me navigate an issue we ran into with our car. Definitely recommend

Thank you so much for trusting us again. I kinda got confused as to who was returning. You’re our 1st guests we had at the property. The group that gets together every year to float and golf.

My wife and I stayed at The Hidden Gem in 2024, and after we left we couldn't get this beautiful house out of our thoughts. So, two years later, when planning another trip to St. Louis, we knew we had to stay at The Hidden Gen again. The house is so comfortable, with everything one would need to feel at home. But, for us, the highlight is the outdoor space. We loved sitting on the patio every morning drinking coffee, watching the sun come up over the trees and lighting up the pond, while listening to the birds wake up and start singing.And the outdoor fireplace is a perfect place to end the evening while watching the fire slowly burn away while watching the stars appear overhead one by one.Now that we have stayed here twice, we are already talking about when we will go back for a third visit.Thank you Christie for sharing your beautiful property!

This place was amazing. Everything was better than advertised. The porch, firepit, grill veiw and house were great. We went floating at Blue Spring Ranch which is just couple minutes down the road. I believe me and the wife spent most of our time in the porch swing. Only suggestion I would make is if you like sleeping with a fan on you as I do. Maybe bring one for the mater bed room. All the other rooms had ceiling fans. Thats just my personal preference though. The wife was happy I didnt have one freezing here out lol.

If I could leave 10 stars, I would!! This place is truly a safe haven and will forever hold a special place in our hearts. The real hidden gem is the host! Miss Christie and Mr Tracey are incredible people with huge hearts! They were there for us in every way and welcomed us as family when we needed it. If you stay anywhere in all of Missouri, choose this beautiful little cottage. It’s truly a home away from home!
