From the owner: "Thank you so much for your review and family was great 5 star as well keep the house clean."
Super accommodating to friends, family, including pets. Host was incredible, kind, helpful, and informative. The stay exceeded our expectations 20 out of 10!
We had a wonderful stay! My grandkids had a great time in the pool. The adults enjoyed the hot tub. The house had everything we needed. Marie and Mike took wonderful care of us.
Wonderful property hidden away in a suburb close to St. Louis. The owner lives on the property and is very friendly and available for any questions or concerns or just to say hi. She bought us doughnuts from a local shop one morning. The house is eclectic, fun to explore and so much fun. The kids loved the game room, huge basement, large saltwater pool, smart TVs, etc. Close enough to St Louis to go into town easily. Perfect place for a large family gathering.
Landolord organized nice fruits by the time we arrive. Property is very clean and scenic.

Very beautiful home and property, you feel like your not even close to the city. Best stocked kitchen I've ever seen at a place we rented; all the cool kitchen tools and spices.
We really enjoyed our stay.
The property managers were very helpful and gave good suggestions things to do in the area.

Marie is the Host with the Most. Host extradinaire! She makes sure u have everything u need during your stay. House is beautiful and clean. Excellent family time together with plenty of space. Definitely will return in the future.
Marie is amazing. She was a great hostess and very responsive. She even made chocolate chip cookies for the kids. Not only was Marie great but the property was too. The house was the perfect location for a trip into st louis and then relax at night. The kids had plenty to do and the adults were able to relax. Definitely recommend this location.

Truly Paradise
The hosts and the property did not disappoint. The house is eclectic with tasteful decor. The amenities were great. The outside oasis was peaceful and clean. Nothing was left out. They have thought of everything and provided a wonderful environment to enjoy our family time and our daughters birthday celebration.
We had a great time staying at this beautiful property! There was plenty of room for 11 of us and our dogs. The kids loved the game room downstairs, and we all enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The yard is huge, so there is a lot of space to run around and enjoy. Marie was extremely helpful and kind, providing snacks and drinks, and checking in on us to make sure we had everything we needed. We were so grateful for her hospitality throughout the week. I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a nice getaway!

Family Christmas
The house was more than we had expected. Attention to detail and accommodations were exceptional. The welcome basket of a beautiful fresh fruit platter was an unexpected surprise. Definitely will return in the future. Marie was a fabulous host.
Marie and Mike were wonderful hosts. They took care of my every need very promptly. The home was beautiful, very clean like my own little private paradise. I hosted my 60th birthday with close friends and family, their property was very private and accommodated everyone. I would definitely be back.

From the owner: "Thank you, Stephanie. You were such a great guest. You kept things very quiet and professional. Everyone was very nice and friendly."
This house was perfect for getting together with friends and relaxing in the pool and hot tub. Lot's of space to gather as a large group or find a quiet place for just a few people. Kitchen had everything we needed for preparation of meals. Marie is a great property host. There if we needed anything. Thanks so much. We are going to be booking again soon.

From pulling into the secure gate, to driving the drive looking at the beautiful lawn, to meeting the owners…this was beyond what we had expected. The house is amazing, the hospitality was far beyond anything expected, the view was great and the fun to be had both in and out of the house was endless!! We had 11 people and still had extra room. Each room is unique and beautiful.we had our fun in St Louis and will stay here again and just relax and enjoy being at the house! If this is available for your dates and group size, you will not regret getting it!

We had 11 people stay here. Most of them kids. They loved the pool and the game room. We were told the place was FANCY a lot. Great communication with the host, plenty of space and everything was clean and beautiful. The pool and hot tub were amazing. Plenty dishes and kitchen appliances to use. Fire wood well stocked for our use. We felt safe and had no worries. Even got to see deer in the yard a couple of days. Wonderful time and great hosts!

Great for Big Groups and Kids
Marie was an amazing host. She was very responsive and available when we had questions. She even made chocolate chip cookies for the kids. The location was great. It was easy for us to drive into St. Louis for the day to enjoy many different activities (Zoo, aquarium, The Arch, City Museum, Magic House and Science Musuem) and then be home at night to relax. There was plenty of room for the kids to play and the adults to relax. The patio was great and we enjoyed many nights grilling out.
There were 13 of us staying in this home for the week (6 adults and 7 children). There was plenty of room for us to spread out and have our own space. Each day we did outings in the city usually traveling about a half an hour. However, we were ready to return to our quiet oasis in the afternoons. The home is fully equipped with everything you will need and Marie and Mike were great hosts who took care of us and saw to all our needs.

Fun times
We had a large family get together at Hidden Paradise. There were 5 children and they had a blast with all the fun things provided! There was plenty of space throughout the house to have your own space if needed. The owner went above and beyond to make it a great stay! She is kind and considerate! When we arrived the house was very clean! If you like a unique vibe, this would be the house for you!! It was a good distance to make day trips to St Louis and St Charles.

Perfect Family Space!
We live locally and have a big immediate family that doesn’t but visits often for my kids’ birthdays. This house was the perfect space for us to enjoy our time together instead of splitting up in hotels that aren’t nearby. It’s very well appointed with everything we needed and Marie was so kind! The kids loved having their own space in the basement to play in the game room, watch movies, & karaoke. The outdoor space was perfect; plenty of seating, and the pool and hot tub were both so clean!We really enjoyed our time here and only regret that we couldn’t stay longer… so we will be back! Huge thanks to Marie and Mike for providing such a great space for lodging here in North St Louis County!
