Always amazing

Part of me wants to leave a bad review so this place doesn’t get too busy and I can use it every year because I love it that much! This is our favorite place to stay. It truly is the best and they think of everything. Super clean, close to the river, all kinds of amenities, and beautiful view

Teacher Float Trip

Our group had a great time at the house and property. The river access point was great and we loved that there was raft rentals for our float just down the other gravel drive, less than 10 min from the house. Thanks for a great stay!!

Bachelorette Trip

We had a great weekend! 11 people, plenty of room, wonderful views, clean, and has everything you need. Book the barn too, it was worth it! Not too far of a drive to Bass River Resort for a day float or Steelville for anything you may forget. Loved the games and fire pit. We didn’t make it down to the property’s river access but we’ll try that next time.

Two Days In Paradise

The home was everything we hoped for. Clean, spacious, and very well stocked. The barn area was amazing with all the activities provided. The property is very well kept and very private. We could not have picked a better place to get away for a couple days. Thank you to the owners for making it great.

Family Retreat

Perfect place for our family to get together and enjoy the ranch, games that are provided on site, sit around a campfire with a guitar, and enjoy the river. Hosts were amazing to work with and provided us with more than enough information to help us maneuver the property. The age range was from 2 years old up to 87 and everyone enjoyed staying here.

Misleading

When booking the property It says River access to the property. The actual property has more than 20 acres . so you have to drive to the river. It is not close to the house like the pictures portray. Lots of spiders and spider webs inside the house. The Vollyball area was weeds not sand, net was not straightened and all balls were flat. Hockey table was not in use. Pool table was dirty. We did play some ping pong. Lot of weeds around the barn area could haven been cleaned up. Bbq grill was barely useable. Grill Racks were broken. Broken chairs in the recreation barn. (Liability) had a barn full of tools and 4 wheeler with key. No sign of don’t use. They charged us for riding it. We had moved the Xbox to the house from the barn area. They couldn’t find it so they charged us for stealing. Do Not recommend staying here! You will be overcharged!

A great place to have a gathering with friends!

The home and property exceeded my expectations. I had a large group and the home, barn and barn apartment provided us all space to hang out and enjoy our celebration with friends. The river access wasn't far from the property and we were able to get right in with our floaties and enjoy the water. The owners of the home communicated when I had a question prior to my stay and ensured me if there were any questions while at the home, they were always available. My husband and friends throughly enjoyed the 50th celebration at this location. We hope to plan another get together again next year here!

Heaven!

You're in the Missouri Ozarks. Sat under a covered porch while the sun was shining on rain clouds and those Ozark Hills. Not the Smokey Mountains... but gorgeous none the less It is secluded, down gravel roads over cattle guards. Saw an Bald Eagle in their nest while floating down the river... how American is that? Had absolutely no issues. Had to contact the owner while there. Our group decided to add the barn room for our adventure. She responded in less than 10 minutes.

Beautiful Property with Plenty of Entertainment

We rented this place for a small party for teenage boys as our son turned 17. It was perfect for the cause. Between the air hockey, pool table, ping pong and sand volleyball, the boys stayed busy and off the screens all weekend! The cabin was stocked with all the dishes needed to cook a few meals and the Keurig machine was perfect for morning coffee. The board games were a nice touch as our 5 year old had a blast playing Sorry. We utilized the fire pit for s’mores and ghost stories in the evenings. Communication with the owner was prompt and friendly. We even forgot a phone by accident. Didn’t notice til we got home and Laura offered to FedEx it right away. I can’t say enough wonderful things and I would recommend this place 100%!

Nice place but wolf spiders everywhere

Nice place with games in the barn. However, the wolf spiders were outrageous. On the walls, in the sink, and worse, in the beds. Killed no fewer than 10 in two days. Not pleasant for the ladies.

Friend float trip getaway

The rental process was smooth overall. The property is “off the beaten path” and was exactly what we were looking for. The house had plenty of things to do there for our teens. There is a sand volleyball court, pool table, and other games. The main issue that we had was a odor in the kitchen. The odor was so strong that we chose not to eat or cook in the house. After 24 hours we noticed the odor was from a leaking sink in the kitchen. The leaking faucet had a bucket underneath the sink with old pungent water that was the source of the odor. We also noticed that the sink would not drain and backup at times. Unfortunately we figured this out towards the end of our stay. We did contact the owner regarding this issue. It must have been an issue that someone was aware of because there was a bucket with old dirty water sitting underneath the sink. It was unfortunate that the smell was so bad that we chose not to spend much time indoors. The other issue was that several of the chairs outside were broken. In fact, I sat down on one the first evening and landed on the ground with scrapes and bruises. We then inspected the remainder of the chairs and two more were cracked and not safe to use. We did use the floating outfitters on the property ( about 0.3 miles away ). They were great and our float was perfect. The river is too far to walk too but is a short drive from the property.

About the host

Hosted by Laura Wright

Host profile image
My husband and I grew up in Steelville and although we live in the St. Charles area, we wanted a slice of heaven in our hometown! A place where we can unplug and enjoy each other. A place where our boys can put down their cell phones and enjoy nature, hunt, fish, and swim in the river. My husband grew up camping on this property with his high school friends and when the opportunity presented itself, we were able to purchase it. We are excited to share it with others!

Why they chose this property

Our property has it all! The seclusion and peaceful atmosphere of the farm property, a very nice renovated 1300 sq foot home which sleeps 12 comfortably, the option to use the barn with a 1 bedroom apartment and private access to the river for floating and fishing.

What makes this property unique

We love our ranch because you can sit outside on the porch with your morning coffee and watch the fog roll away from the valley. You listen to the sounds of the farm and star gaze at night. We love spending afternoons at the river, fishing, kayaking or hanging out at the beach or the bluff. This property has it all!
