St. Louis get away

We were in STL for 2 days taking our 6 grandchildren ages (15months-11) to the Arch & City museum. The house was within 10-15 minutes of these & as advertised in the listing. Emily, the host was very responsive & pleasant to deal with. The code lock on the door made it easier if we divided up not to deal with a key (you do have to pull it firmly when leaving for the lock to easily work). The house was well stocked with plenty of beds for our crew & we loved the toys/highchair for the 15 month old we had. We had no issues with safety of our vehicles both on the street & in carport.

Finally, sound machines in EVERY room! HOORAY!

Spacious w/ SO many sleeping options! 1st FL BR = huge win for the older folks in our group who ONLY had to manage the stairs to shower. And, a sound machine in each bedroom is something I always thought EVERY short-term rental ought to offer! Would recommend a window + kitchen cabinet/drawer spring clean. Also have to echo the comments of prior guests that (given the number of people this property can accommodate) figuring out a way to squeeze out a few more TV's + another "gathering space" (maybe in the foyer?) would be 'chefs kiss'! We had some reservations about the neighborhood initially, but it ended up being super chill/quiet! A great stay overall. We LOVED the large dining table + well-stocked kitchen and bathrooms! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Multiple Family get-together

This was a great home base to catch-up with my cousin and her family as well as include my dad. Great set-up for both kids and adults — plenty of comfortable beds and bathrooms. Easy access to the City Museum and the Arch. The owner also included helpful tips on nearby restaurants. We had a great time catching up with extended family and exploring St Louis!

Great Place!

We enjoyed our stay. The layout and number of bedrooms was perfect for our group of 2 families. We had 4 adults and 6 kids including an infant and the bedroom options were perfect. Our only suggestion would be better living room furniture. The chairs were not very comfortable and there wasn’t enough space for all 10 of us to sit comfortably and watch a movie together. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would absolutely stay here again! The host was wonderful!

Family fun

Lots of places to sleep so if the bed wasn’t a great fit for you there were many more options. Tons of space for family to spread out. Only wish there was a little more seating in the family room. Had everything you would need from towels, pillows, bathroom supplies and a ton of items if you were bringing along little ones. Even has private parking so no hassle finding a spot for your two cars. Would highly recommend

Great spot

We chose to stay at this house due to having twelve of us staying in St.Louis for a family vacation. This place was ideal as it was big enough for all of us (5 adults and 7 kids (ages 3-16), close to downtown, and close to other attractions around St.Louis. The owner was very quick to respond to questions and very helpful for information for things to do around town. Definitely will stay here if we head down again.

Spring Break

2 families together for Spring Break - 9 people total. We had plenty of sleeping space and room for everyone! 5 of the party were children who slept in the bunk room so they did wish there was more than one TV in the house but that was the only complaint they had for night time winding down! Close to everything we wanted to do! Communication with Emily was always quick and easy and the house had everything we needed!

Perfect home away from home

We spent almost a week in this lovely home with our children and grandchildren (12 of us). The home is exactly as listed. It is arranged so that the babies and children had space to sleep well and the adult beds were very comfortable. Bathrooms and kitchen were clean which is a big deal to us. The dining room table accommodated all of us so we could eat together. There is a thermostat on each floor which was incredibly helpful since the weather was so hot when we were in St. Louis. The location is perfect for so many popular landmarks. We used three parking spots, the two provided in the carport and one on the street and we never had any problem being able to park right in front of the house. Emily sent us ideas of things we might want to do in the area which was incredibly helpful. She communicated extremely quickly when we had a couple of questions. We highly recommend this home.

About the host

Hosted by Emily Leonard

Host profile image
We (Emily and Anthony) are transplants to the great city of St. Louis. Having arrived in 2016 to start Anthony's ophthalmology residency at WashU, we have hit the ground running. We enjoy adventuring in our city and beyond. We have four sweet young children, who keep us busy at home and on the go.

Why they chose this property

We bought The Miami House because it was the perfect mix of location without having to sacrifice any amenities. There's plenty of space to stretch out yet you don't have to travel far to get anywhere. We loved the neighborhood when we first toured and we still love it now (we only live 4 blocks away!).

What makes this property unique

We were enamored by the original hardwood floors, the high ceilings, the gourmet kitchen, and open concept living space. As most of our family lives far away and has always been so kind to host us, we were eager to have enough home to return the favor on their ventures to St. Louis. We gratefully extend this tradition of hosting friends and family all under one roof to you who want to vacation together and in style.
