Wonderful!
The lodge at pine lake was a delightful place to stay while visiting St.Louis. We loved having such a quiet, peaceful place to spend our evenings. So many fun things to do at the property- we loved the hot tub and kayaks! Tony and Kim were friendly, helpful hosts!

Amazing Place To Stay
This place was amazing! When looking into renting a hotel room for 5 of us to stay we came across this little piece of amazingness. Beautiful property and the owners were so nice. There was so much to do and they were VERY accommodating. I couldn't say enough good things about this place and have already recommended it to freinds to book for their stay at the end of the month.

Lovely getaway
The property is absolutely beautiful. Whether you want to fish, soak in the hot tub, have a fire, or just relax inside and play games. There are also so many things nearby to do! I can't say enough about the host and hostess communication prior to and during your stay. They were great!!! Will definitely book again and recommend to others.

Perfect Getaway!
This property was a great getaway and just a short trip from STL. The views of the lake are wonderful and the hosts are very friendly, willing to accommodate any needs that may come up. The property was very clean and has all of the basic necessities of home. Our stay truly felt like home away from home. We will be sure to recommend this property to friends and family. Thank you!

The lake house was a very peaceful late fall getaway. From easy access, privacy, hot tub, outside fire pit, and wood burning stove in the enclosed porch; we had a great time. Hope to return.

Lake House
Quiet and relaxing getaway. House and kitchen had everything we needed, we just brought food. They have a lot of outdoor amenities including a hot tub, corn hole, chairs, hammock, docks, fishing poles, boats, life jackets and more. Cute decor and awesome enclosed porch with a beautiful view. Will stay there again!

Great quarantine getaway
I wanted to have a quick getaway with my kids. This was a perfect location and everything was fantastic. We were able to unplug and just be with one another. My kids have already asked if we could do it again.
