Beautiful historical two story stone farmhouse

Second year we’ve stayed here and it was great again. This is just a short drive from St. Joe state park with plenty of beds. Off the beaten path so you don’t have to worry about your stuff overnight

We found the property to be ideal for exploring SE Missouri! It's a good size with plenty of indoor and outdoor space, and it has been nicely kept up. Host was very communicative, and the cattle are a bonus :-)

Stayed here with family on a quick weekend for a birthday party. Legit wished we had been able to spend more time here at the Hildebrand House. It was lovingly restored and everything is so eclectic and fun just to look around and see. Beds are super comfy, and we had everything we needed for our stay.

We had a wonderful time at this property and stayed over a week. The home is spacious, beautifully restored and decorated, very clean, and thoughtfully stocked with almost anything you might think of plus helpful extras like spare blankets and pillows, plenty of towels, a first aid kit, coffee and tea, shampoo and soaps, games, puzzles, fire and grill supplies, etc. The beds are extremely comfortable and everything is in good condition. As a bigger family it's helpful that the washer and dryer are available for longer stays. The hosts are very responsive and were flexible and helpful when our needs changed. The property is beautiful (great sunset and sunrise views, too) and our kids loved watching the cattle, playing in the big yard, outdoor dinners, s'mores around the fire pit, hide n' seek and puzzles in the house when it rained, and walks on the property. We saw lots of turkeys and even a bald eagle nearby. This home is perfect for larger groups, multiple families, or bigger families, like ours. Also, as a family with multiple kids with special needs it can be hard to find a vacation spot that "works" for their needs where the kids won't get overwhelmed by noise from others or disturb other families when they have meltdowns or are sensory-seeking. This was such a peaceful and relaxing respite as a special needs family that's usually on high alert. Although it's in a rural area the house is only an hour from St. Louis. We took a couple of day trips to visit the art museum, zoo, and take the kids on a riverboat ride. We also loved hiking in the many awesome state parks in easy driving range in the eastern Ozarks - we didn't have time to hit them all but loved Washington State Park, Hawn State Park, Taum Sauk Mountain State Park, and Elephant Rocks State Park. The kids also liked the playgrounds at Bonne Terre Lake about ten minutes from the house. In summary, highly recommended! We hope to return one day.
