Best Guest Experience Ever!
We travel often and are always looking for a clean place to stay with all the bells & whistles. By far this place has been the best. It was just a few blocks from Main Street St. Charles. We brought our bikes and were able to ride the Katy Trail. The place had beautiful natural wood throughout the house with amazing lighting. Everything was updated. The bed I slept in was very cozy. The weather was great so we sat outside on the patio in the morning and evening. The neighbors were quiet and friendly. We would definitely stay here again!

The home was close to the downtown district making it a very convenient location for us. The home was warm and inviting. The furniture was not overly comfortable but suitable. The home was clean and smelled fresh. You could tell it was well maintained :)

Cute place in a walkable neighborhood
This property is very well kept in a quiet neighborhood, within walking distance to almost anything you'd need. We walked to historic downtown St. Charles and enjoyed the lovely shops. The pictures are an excellent representation of what you'll find there. The stairs are a little steep, but not bad. The bathroom is on the main level while the bedrooms are upstairs (something to be aware of if you get up in the middle of night to use the restroom, you'd have to navigate the stairs). We enjoyed our stay and would happily stay here again.

Class reunion
We stayed here for a short weekend return to the area for a HS class reunion. The house had everything we needed. It is on a quiet street in a quiet historic neighborhood. Didn't know it at the time of booking, but it was just one street from where my grandmother lived when I was a child!

Cute property
Cute property, nice neighborhood, only downfall we had was it took a full two days for the temperature downstairs to get below 73. It stayed close to 77 during the daytime. The upstairs has two bedrooms with only one window unit air conditioner. There was a door in between the two rooms you have to leave open to cool the other room. All and all still a fun stay
