Was told by the proprietor that he couldn't find a plumber, toilets had been overflowing for awhile. Although I asked for a spot close to the bathroom, (glad I didn't get one) the road to the spot I was headed to was being graded as we entered. The camp was half empty and many concrete pads were available, I was given a gravel one. We have traveled across the country and this was then worst camp we have ever been to, we won't be back, would have been better if we just pulled into a truck stop on I-70.

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

L'auberge is located on a quiet street in the historic Frenchtown District of St Charles, MO, just 20 min from St Louis. From the lighting to the decor, it was perfectly comfortable. The house has a well stocked modern kitchen, two bathrooms, a dining room for six, comfortable living room with plenty of seating and washer/dryer. Outside, there was plenty of off street parking, an outdoor gas grill, outdoor dining for six and plenty of other outdoor seating. The house was immaculate and perfectly decorated.

You can get a flight of wines for $5 or a glass of wine or a pint of beer for $5 each. You can even do a tour and tasting for $10. Plus, all the bottles are pretty much under $25. And they have quite a large variety of whites, reds, and roses too. Cindy, one of the owners, is so very friendly and helpful. She will go through an entire tasting with you with the highest level of patience, allowing you to taste and try anything you'd like to. Her brother-in-law also Is a gem, he himself Popsicles to all of the kids running around and let them ride on the tractor or explore into the garden. Would highly recommend if you are in the area!

Arthur was the live music for the day and he played a great variety of songs (acoustic guitar). The wine is fantastic. I do not know a lot about wine, but I do know that each one we tasted (6) was very easy to drink. We shared a bottle there and I brought 2 home. Bonus: you can bring your own snacks (no beverages). I love this. I enjoy planning my own winery snacks. I was bummed when many wineries quit allowing food because they opened kitchens. So if I have to pay $30+ for food. I'm buying less wine. Anywaaaay, make a little weekend out of visiting this area and have a lovely time at Edg Clif. (Photos do not do it justice)

It is something like the Lake of the Ozarks, only with a hundred man-made lakes and a gated community of the St. Louis elite. I was fortunate enough to have wealthy family members, this does not include myself, sadly, but does extend to my generous grandparents. "Our" house is on the St. Gallen Circle but we have our own "lake" (more like a pond, but they use the word quite loosely out these ways). The scenery and wildlife are breath-taking; last week we saw 10+ deer, turkey, falcons, crane, turtles and, of course, fish. Very little noise and very little bugs. It's like camping for the Real Housewives of Chesterfield. Plus, there is an in-ground pool, work out facilities, a giant human-sized chess board, tennis courts, golfing, a restaurant with a bar and a quickie mart. We stayed on the ground for a whole week, only venturing outside our community in search of hard liquor. Best. vacation. ever.

Perfect for a one night or weekend getaway. This is a resort/residential community that includes cabins (Chalets), homes, villas, and condos. There is a nice 18hole public golf course, tennis courts, sand volley ball courts, boat rentals, horseback riding and lots and lots of NATURE! Our family was looking for a place to vacation that was easier to reach than Branson, MO. This is a great place to GETAWAY and unplug which is exactly what our family wants to do. The community is gated and secure thus you can feel overall very safe. There are over 100 different sized lakes so fishing is abundant. They do have boats but only electric trolling motors which adds to the peace and quiet. Most own paddle boats, kayaks and canoes as well which also decrease the gas and noise pollution. If you know someone who owns a place definitely ask to borrow it for a weekend or just call Innsbrook and rent one. Some rent their Chalets on VRBO as well. Great place for weddings, or even corporate retreats.

I usually use my camper as more of a mobile hotel while traveling- it's a place to stay (usually…read morewith my dogs) while I am doing something during the day. So I booked a site here for a place to stay while I was diving Bonne Terre mine. Initially my reservation was for Friday and Saturday night, but after checking out the website, I thought I might end up staying until Monday morning. I liked that the directions, site number and bathroom code were texted to me and that I could just go straight to my site and someone would stop by afterwards for check-in. But it rained for most of the weekend, so other than walking the dogs around the area, I didn't get out of the camper much. Although it seemed like a nice enough place, based on the information on their website I was expecting a lot more property and outdoorsy things to do. It doesn't seem like the property is large enough to have any hiking trails, and there are two small ponds, but it didn't look like swimming or wading was encouraged. There were a couple small wooden platforms out over the water, maybe for fishing? Overall I was satisfied with the place because it met my basic needs. But when I got done diving at the mine on Sunday afternoon, I packed up and left because even if the weather improved it seemed like there was enough to do at Stone Park to make it worth of another night there.
