Great place to stay! We had a group of 4 adults, 3 kids, and a small dog and the place worked great for everyone. Would definitely stay here again in the future.
Everything went great! We appreciated the advance instructions, so we knew what to expect at arrival and departure. Everything was well organized and clean, and well maintained. We enjoyed our stay very much!
Stayed two nights and the property perfectly suited our needs with my wife and I, our two adult sons with fiancé and girlfriend and one small dog. Bedrooms were comfy, house was clean and homey.
Would rent this property again. Very clean and comfortable! Communication was great and had quick replies. Only input is there are only mirrors in the bathroom so would bring small table mirror to get ready if lots of people are getting ready at once. We absolutely loved our stay and I highly recommend renting this house.
Place is exactly as described with an excellent fenced in yard, perfect for the pup! Kitchen is adequate. Incredibly clean and organized. Neighborhood is a little in transition, but we never felt unsafe and walked our dog around. 20 minute walk from Forest park. Adequate parking in driveway and street.
This home is just adorable and very clean. We loved the layout and the openness. It was in a perfect location and we truly enjoyed our stay. Thank you so much!

Thank you for the kind words Cyndi! We were happy to host you!
The home was exactly as described, was very clean, and the perfect set up for our three kids and two dogs. The property owner was very easy to communicate with and was quick to answer any questions. We would definitely stay again!
Great floor plan and utilization of space on main floor as well as basement; comfortably furnished; quiet being on a street that dead ends. Proximity to Forest Park and the zoo, museum, etc is great. We very much enjoyed our stay and will book again next time we’re back!
We had a great stay in St. Louis! This location was perfect for us- we walked to the zoo, to get coffee at Sweet Em’s, and to Forest Park a few times, and were just a 10-15 minute drive from anywhere else we wanted to go! So many fun things for young kids to do here! The house was clean and spacious for our family of 5. We had everything we needed. Thanks for a great stay!
This property was all we needed and more. It was on a quiet street and so easy to get to and easy to get to the zoo, science center and St Louis downtown. Very friendly and accommodating manager Elizabeth answered all questions promptly.
This house was perfect for our St Louis weekend with family. The house had ample space for 7 adults with a great recreation area and plenty of kitchen and dining space.
The house was clean and welcoming and the owners were easy to work with!

About the host
Hosted by Liz
I am a St. Louis native, enthusiastic about city living and sharing local greatness! My favorite St. Louis destinations are the Pageant, Forest Park, City Museum, and the Missouri Botanical Garden.
You can find me around town walking my dog, practicing my golf swing, or hanging out at any local establishment with great food and drink.
My favorite AirBNB destinations are beachside, especially in Destin, FL, and the Outer Banks, NC. I’m always looking for new ways to delight my guests and not afraid to borrow ideas from properties I stay at while traveling!
