    The outside of the mill .

    Fun place to stop and have lunch on the way to Osage beach . It's an old mill and quaint decor . I had a salad which was very good . I have been here before and always enjoyed it .

    Bistro Restaurant in Gerald, MO

    Passing thru Gerald MO, found this quaint bistro with a variety of freshly-made sandwiches, pitas and salads! Good options like Gyros, several Paninis, Reuben, Garlic Chicken, BLT, Spicy Roast Beef, Burger's, Deli meats, salads and more in an old "mill" location with character, friendly staff and casual ambience. Order at the counter, and staff brings food out to your table. I liked it, rate it a 4.0, and reasonable cost of ~$7-9 per sandwich. Today our group ordered a bit of everything, the Fire Gyro, Spicy Hot Roast Beef, Turkey Panini and Italian Beef. All sandwiches were tasty and enjoyed! Each sandwich came with a side, everyone voted for the fresh Potato salad. We topped it off with dessert of Baklava and home-made Scone (not as airy/crumbly but more dense in style). Next time back I'd really like to try their Italian Muffuletta, Garlic Chicken or Chicken Bacon Ranch sandwich, all sound great! Also, they have a freshly made soup of the day. A reasonable and comfortable place for a good meal! Check it out and ENJOY!!

    Great place for a nice lunch. Service was great. Owner was easy to talk to and shared the history of the mill. Food was very good.

    Spring Lake Ranch - So many horses here! We were lucky enough to enjoy two horse rides. Stunning experience from the kindest people.

    This place is a great little getaway a few hours away from the St. Louis area for camp camping…read more There are tons of options with cabins with Jacuzzi, permanent cabins, and little houses as well to rent. When we arrived at check-in, it was super easy to get checked in and everyone was very kind. They have a store with some small items if you forgot anything. The owners live on site and they let me and my kids go visit their puppies and play in the puppies area/run house. They are very kind and spoke to us often throughout. They even offered to go to the store to pick AA batteries for us and a couple other things instead of us going to the store and purchasing it from them directly that was very kind and going above. The only reason for the four star is, I did call them to get additional towels for the cottage house we rented. Whoever answered the phone had hesitation in their voice, and seemed annoyed that I was asking for extra towels. They asked how many people were in our party because they saw a lot of people.kitchen told them yes we rented the cottage house +3 primitive cabins we had a large party, but we were not over using any space. He thought hesitation in his voice and I explained to him we only had two towels and he was more than welcome to come check if he doubted us he said oh that's strangely usually put four or five in the house I said well, they didn't then they offered to bring more as much as we all spent for the entire weekend. It was a little frustrating how we were treated in that specific scenario. They had paddle boats you could rent and we rented two. It was a decently priced 35 for four hours. They also have horseback riding and a couple other things that you can pay additional for. The cottage was fully stocked. The primitive cabins you do have to bring your own linens, which is clearly stated

    The grounds at Spring Lake Ranch are genuinely beautiful. The lake is gorgeous, peaceful, and…read moreseemed like a great spot to unplug in nature. However, my check-in experience was incredibly frustrating and ruined the trip for me. Upon pulling up to the Country Store (exactly as the check-in instructions stated), one of the property's loose farm dogs (a Great Pyrenees) began barking and jumping repeatedly on my vehicle, leaving behind scratches down to the primer. I stayed in my vehicle with my dog (who remained calm and quiet) secured in the backseat, as I didn't know if the loose dog was friendly. When the owner, Jonathan, came out, he put the dog up but loudly began blaming me for the damage, stating I should have gotten out to stop his dog or moved my vehicle elsewhere. He made multiple excuses and was very dismissive of the fact that my property was damaged by his unleashed animal. Jonathan ended up walking away and a different man asked me to go inside to check in. Flabbergasted, I proceeded with the check in process even though I didn't get an apology or any concern for what happened or how I'd been treated. The entire ordeal, including the hostility, really just ruined the stay for me and I ended up leaving early the next day. I did get an initial text from Johnathan apologizing and he offered to give me a free next stay and pay for buffing the scratches. I declined another stay, and notified him that I buffed out most of the scratches, but that some had gone through to the primer. I told him I would take care of it and I was not going to send a bill. Dragging this on further, he sent another message attempting to blame me again. This time claiming that my window being cracked a few inches is what caused his livestock dog to bark and scratch my doors. The constant blaming and complete lack of accountability for a guest's damaged property was unacceptable. It is a beautiful property, but proceed with caution, and be prepared for loose dogs and a defensive, unprofessional, owner.
