Check in instructions were clear and included everything we needed. The space was clean and as advertised. We needed a place to crash overnight after a concert and this fit the bill perfectly - would definitely stay again if we end up back in STL!

A great place to stay close to historic St. Charles. Our girls trip thought the space was perfect for a weekend getaway. The place was very spacious and host was quick to respond when we had a question. A washer and dryer in the house was an added bonus for our rainy weekend. Would stay at this location again!

Great communication from host, clean home, comfortable, great location. The only thing to note is the two bedrooms are upstairs and the bathroom is on the main floor. Wasn't an issue for us but something that would be good to know when booking.

This was a nice place to stay. The beds were comfortable, there was lots of space, and the kitchen had everything we needed. We have a toddler and a baby, and having a washer and dryer in the unit was super helpful. We would consider staying here again for future trips to St. Charles.

The house was in a beautiful historic neighborhood. For our family, maybe especially me, having only one bathroom located on the main floor while bedrooms were up 16 steep stairs was the only drawback. It was not clear in the photos where the bathroom was located. Part of the charm of a 100 year plus home. Selected this property 95% based on location between Lindenwood and downtown. Figured I could handle the stairs for 2 days.

This was our third year staying a week here with our pup to visit our son at Lindenwood. We enjoy the location and size of the living room. As well as the washer/dryer and dishwasher. As not all historic VRBO in St. Charles offer this. It is a perfect location for everything and our pup enjoys his neighborhood walks.
