Lisa is a Star Host

Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.

Many years ago, this area was a country get away for St. Louis city folks. Now, the large farms are smaller farm estate residences for people like me who enjoy large trees, open land, wildlife, and some privacy. Located in a quiet country-like neighborhood, located 2 miles from Scott Air Force Base, 2.7 miles from I-64, 2.1 miles from Memorial Hospital, and minutes from shopping and eating venues. This convenient location stop is located in the back field behind a farm estate home on ~6 acres. A bike trail is located at the entrance. My home is visible from this area, it also backs up to a 145 acre historic park. These items are available upon request: a portable bathroom with an eco-bag*, 2 gallons of water*, a fire pit*, firewood*, tables and chairs*. If your dog will be joining you, let me know in advance if your pup is good around other dogs or not. Because some campers are super self sufficient and want privacy, and others carry a lighter load, please request needed items in advance (i.e. chairs, table, water, firewood).

Host was incredibly friendly, and accommodating. Made it very easy to stay here. Instructions were clear, and being only 30 minutes away from downtown St Louis makes this simple yes

First off, this campsite really does exist. I booked it and was able to sleep there. The hostess is kind and helpful. She made sure we had all our provided supplies and plenty of water to drink in the 90 degree heat. They even came over and offered to let us bunker down in their basement if the tornado sirens went off. Thankfully, they didn’t. You’re getting what your booking.

Spacious and fairly private spot. Lots of soft grass if tent camping. Lovely, hospitable host.

Quiet location with a peaceful setting. I would probably go in the spring or fall. Lisa was kind, helpful, and accommodating. Great for passing through town or a place to take the kids for a quick weekend getaway from St. Louis.
