About this property

Serene 5BR Retreat w/ Hot Tub & Privacy

  • Welcome to a home where comfort meets calm.

    This thoughtfully designed 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath retreat offers two master bedrooms featuring King sized beds and attached private bathrooms. This home offers generous space for families and groups who value privacy, quality time, and a serene setting while still being close to stores and restaurants. Just an 8-minute drive to downtown Waterloo or a 38-minute drive to downtown St. Louis, this home can be your sanctuary after long days of exploring. Whether you're planning a holiday gathering, multi-generational trip, or long weekend escape, the layout allows everyone to spread out while still coming together with ease.

    The expansive living areas invite movie nights, card games, and unhurried conversations. The fully equipped kitchen makes preparing meals simple and enjoyable—perfect for guests who prefer dining in together.

    Step outside and unwind in the hot tub, surrounded by peaceful private wooded views and fresh air. Guests often share how “at home” they feel here—comfortable, relaxed, and cared for.

    Two bedrooms share a bath, while the remaining bedrooms offer their own bathroom, creating a balanced blend of privacy and connection.

One of the bests hosts I’ve ever dealt with. Needed the place for 11 days due to back to back wedding weekends in the area. Erikia was very helpful with any questions that needed taken care of.
