About this lodge
Driftwood River Lodge is a vacation rental in a beautiful river lodge setting on the Meramec River just 1.7 miles from downtown Steelville, Missouri. We are just minutes away from shopping and your choice of local restaurants. Our lodge is in the heart of a popular tourist town full of attractions that include, but not limited to, canoe rentals, state parks, hiking trails, and the Meramec River.
Driftwood River Lodge is nestled in the trees overlooking the beautiful Meramec River bottoms. This nature-inspired setting offers a real country cabin in the woods. Visitors can be surrounded by nature and smell the fresh outdoor air. This charming country lodge will take you to a place of total relaxation away from the hustle and bustle of the city. After spending a beautiful day on the river, visitors can come back to the lodge to enjoy a family BBQ on one of the many decks overlooking the river bottoms or they can choose to dine at one of Steelville’s local small town, family friendly restaurants. After dinner, visitors can relax on a comfortable sofa to enjoy a movie in front of a crackling fireplace with a bowl of popcorn made in our fully loaded kitchens.

Perfect place to stay for a large group. Plenty of space, kitchen adequately stocked, very easy booking and check-in/out process. The only drawback is the air conditioning situation. There are several mini splits throughout but only 2 of them work properly. We also rented the Red Cabin along with Driftwood and found the same situation. Still worth 5 stars based on everything else.

May seem trivial to some, but we Really liked that there were fans in the bedrooms. Huge dining area, and patio / deck spaces. AC kept it very cold. Everything was clean and in good working order. Bed in master was comfy!

We chose this beautiful lodge for the bridesmaids and prep spot for the bride! It worked out so perfectly as absolutely huge with three bathrooms and massive kitchen and living areas for visiting. The care taker, Herkley deserves 15 stars! He was incredibly helpful and responsive before and during the stay.we super appreciated how easy it was for us!
The back decks are just gorgeous. The girls had coffee on them each morning and the relaxing atmosphere was absolutely perfect for the bride getting ready for her big day!!!
Our spouses got so jealous of how awesome it was I have no doubt we will all be back again. Beautiful space, hidden among the woods and a great caretaker to help with anything you need!
Thank you so much for making our weekend perfect. See you soon!
