About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Historic headquarters of city founder! Gated parking!

Historic brick cottage has its own granite monument on Main Street. Private gated parking, huge fenced front yard. A history buff’s dream! So many restaurants and shops, Frontier Park, parades, festivals and fun!

Very comfortable sleeping - queen bed in the bedroom and gel foam mattress on the sofa bed in the living room.

Parking is at a premium on Main Street, but you leave the car and walk everywhere, knowing your car is inside the gated area waiting for your return. There is room for four cars, or even an RV!

Check out the City’s website for all of the activities going on in the area. The holidays are especially fun with special events like ice carving contests, costumed characters, singing on the street corners, and Santa parades. Festival of the Little Hills, OktoberFest, and Fourth of July fireworks on the river are just a few of the things unique to the Historic District.

Some favorite restaurants on Main Street are Old Millstream, Magpie’s, Salt and Smoke, Llewelyn’s, and Novellus - and there are many, many more!

Great property and great location
We stayed for few days to visit friends and this was just what we wanted, convenient to main Street and close to restaurants and entertainment. I love to find period correct homes and this one has it all. Easy check in and departure. If you want to enjoy all the main Street offers, this is your place.

A very nice older property in a good location. We enjoyed our stay and like the private parking because during special events in the area parking becomes very limited. The host greeted us when we arrived and explained everything we needed to know.

From the get go, we were impressed with Lynn’s communication and the booking process. Upon arrival, Lynn met us at the property and walked us through. She gave us wonderful suggestions for things to do while we were in town upon request. The property was absolutely perfect. We could not have asked for a better location or stay for our getaway!

Great place, great location
This property and host are wonderful! It's a beautiful, historic cottage in a charming part of old St. Charles, steps from Frontier Park and with nice walks on boutique- and restaurant-lined Main Street or along the greenbelt beside the Missouri River. The cottage is pretty and comfortable, with many thoughtful details in its furnishings. And the host Lynn couldn't be nicer -- she even loaned us an umbrella when we checked in on a rainy day! Highly recommend.

Great place to stay!
We really enjoyed our stay at this super neat historic house! The location is amazing, and the neighborhood is adorable. The house has a locked fence around it with a huge driveway. There are several restaurants (coffee, breakfast, lunch and dinner, ice cream shops and bakeries) and shops to walk to. The people of the town are so nice. It's a perfect mix of Hermann and Eureka Springs! It's close enough to uber to the cardinals game and there is a ton of places to eat and go to, in the surrounding communities.

My husband and I came for a quick anniversary trip. The place is just adorable. Right on main street which makes access to shopping and dining so convenient. We loved that we didn't have to get into our vehicle at all. Bed was comfy and Lynn was so accommodating! We hope to be back next year!

Historic Home, Modern Comfort
Headquarters House is just the perfect spot for exploring Saint Charles and the surrounding area. At the top end of Main Street, the home is removed from most of the noise and traffic, yet within easy walking distance to all the shops, cafes and interesting sites. The house is ideal for a couple’s retreat, and it has everything you need for comfort. Lynn was there to greet us and show us around, and she was quick to respond to questions during our stay. She also gave us good restaurant tips and mentioned some sites we should check out while in town. Overall, Saint Charles was all we hoped for and our stay at Headquarters House made it even better. We highly recommend!
