Amazing Location/Best Property Manager

This is the absolute cutest house I've stayed in. It was so clean and adorable. The Hill is a fantastic neighborhood and the location of this house puts you in walking distance to all the best spots for coffee, food and drinks! The property manager answered all messages promptly and worked with me on dates and check-in. I would love to come back to this spot again!

Spring Break Getaway

Went to St Louis for a quick family trip away for Spring Break. The location of this property was really nice for a young family as lots is within walking distance (coffee shop, gelato, family dining, and parks). The property was very clean and well taken care of and Lisa quickly responds to communications. I would gladly stay here again!

Great stay

We stayed one night to see a show at the fox theatre. Not only was the house in a great neighborhood and not far from downtown, the host was impeccable! They have so many small touches in the home that show you they take pride in making you feel at home. She also let me check in early and answered all of my questions quickly!

Christmas on The Hill

Our stay at the Heart of the Hill during Christmas was amazing! As native St. Louisans we were thrilled to return to the vibrant Hill neighborhood. Its central location near The Missouri Botanical Garden, Forest Park, major highways and delicious restaurants and coffee shops (within walking distance)was perfect. Our host Lisa was very accommodating especially on Christmas Day. The home is lovely with updated bathrooms, wood floors, and top of the line kitchen appliances. The parking pad in back was an added bonus. I highly recommend staying here when visiting St. Louis!

Perfect location and layout

Very thoughtfully decorated space; clean, nice layout, with an effective a/c! My husband and I thought it was perfect for us and our dog—nice little fenced in yard area. The location cannot be beat—walkable to all of The Hill, and nice to have designated parking in the back of the house. When we rented, we didn’t even realize it had two full baths—what a bonus! Highly recommend!

Perfect St. Louis Stay!

This house has everything you need for a relaxing stay in St. Louis. The house was clean and had everything you could ever need to survive the week including some extra things that made the kids smile. We did not have any pets but it was pet ready as well. The neighborhood is super safe in the Italian district. There are restaurants on EVERY CORNER and they are all amazing. There is a playground right by the house that we went to every day to play. It was a very quiet neighborhood. We will definitely stay here again!
