Great experience overall

Overall great experience. For those who make frequent bathroom visits in the middle of the night, it's important to know the bathroom is on the bottom floor and bedrooms are on the second floor, with a pretty hefty climb. That was the only downside but not something that can be controlled by the property manager.

I bet the history of the house is amazing.

This house was good. It has the potential to be amazing. The house had all the basics you need. The area was okay. There was only one bathroom and it was upstairs. This was a draw back for our party. The host was very responsive when we messaged.

Charming historical home was a cozy and clean place to stay. Everything was easy to find, tidy, and nicely decorated. We had plenty of room to spread out and the bedrooms upstairs were cool and very comfortable.We appreciate that parking was convenient as well. This worked out great for a special getaway with family.

Clean place. Nice walk to the old downtown of St Charles. Kitchen had everything we needed to make meals, beds were comfortable and location was perfect. We were close to everything we needed and less than 10 minutes to the convention center.

Clean and cozy

This property was exactly as advertised. Historic, clean, charming, and located within walking distance to historic St. Charles. Being a vintage property, though, the stairs are VERY steep, and with the bedrooms upstairs and the only bathroom downstairs, you go up and down a lot. There also isn't a paved sidewalk from the parking pad to the house, so you have to walk through the grass/weeds. We also had an issue with the air conditioner repeatedly beeping during the night :( As long as the air conditioner situation would be remedied I'd stay again.

Quiet Neighborhood and Close to Downtown!

We came here for a small bachlorette and it turned out really well! We had plenty of space and it was close to things we wanted to do. It's a block off a main road so it was convenient parking and accessible, even with our mini party bus. Rachel was super friendly and quick to respond with any questions I had so we would definitely stay here again.

Close to everything in St. Charles, Great property

Property was terrific. I stayed with my husband and our almost 2 year old to visit family in St. Charles for 4 days. Cool older home, but updated with modern conveniences. Both bedrooms were upstairs and got a little toasty, but central AC a window box in one room made it very comfortable. It was a great stay and a great find for the price! Neighbors were friendly and it was located on a quiet street that was still very close to everything. A note is that the stairs are steep and the bathroom is downstairs (away from the two bedrooms), so for little ones or older folks, it may be something to be mindful of.

Great Location / Close to St Louis

We are a family of 5 with a small dog. We found this house and it was perfect! The location was great as we were able to walk to Historic Main Street or in the opposite direction to Raising Cane’s. We felt very safe in the neighborhood. We wanted to visit the arch and city museum and each destination was about 30 minutes away. Super easy drive to the city. Rachel was super easy to reach and responded very quickly! We had a tv mishap and she responded within moments of texting her & the issue was resolved quickly!Also, I was impressed with the hot water! I love my hot showers in the morning and with 5 people—there was still enough hot water to go around!The exposed brick walls and high ceilings just added to the charm of the house.
