Home away from home
We loved staying at this house. It was in a great neighborhood with a great park and some great cafes/restaurants within walking distance. I highly recommend going to the pond in Lafayette Square Park and seeing the swans (there were other birds and turtles, too). It’s a cute couple that were nesting while we were there with 3 eggs in their nest. The house was perfect for our family of 4. The third floor was great for unwinding after a long day of sightseeing. We’ll definitely try to rent this place again if we head back to St. Louis. Thanks for a great stay!

Great stay
It was our first trip to St. Louis.The property manager was excellent to communicate with . The historic neighborhood was wonderful and the history of the home was very cool. One note, there a many stairs so keep that in mind if you have physical limitations. Overall a super stay.

Lovely historic home
This lovely historical home was a special place to celebrate a getaway weekend in St Louis. We enjoyed the nearby cafe for morning coffee at Park Avenue Cafe ( their cappuccino chocolate chip muffins are delish) and the restaurants. The back deck of the home was great for visiting with friends. The decor and architecture were elegant, the art fascinating. Hosts wonderful.

Sanchez reunion was a success
Our trip to St. Louis was great. The house was marvelous. It was such a treat to be there for the holidays because the house decorated so nicely and the neighborhood was alive with lights and decorations. We would return in a heartbeat. Thanks!

Wonderful location and fantastic communication with host
The house was in the perfect location in a quiet neighborhood with access to lots of wonderful local restaurants. Also easy access to the highways. The host was fantastic. She was very responsive when I had to make several changes to my reservation, during my stay, and even afterwards. The movie theater on the top floor was such a fun surprise!
