Cousins weekend getaway

Our getaway was perfect with our stay at Doves Nest Guest House! The house was very comfortable and close to everything we wanted to see and do. My cousin told her family there is no reason to ever stay in a hotel again!

Overall, had a wonderful time staying here. My husband and I loved how we were walking distance to the city. Short driving distance to some of the best wineries in Missouri. Would love to book another trip again.

Weekend trip.

Comfortable well furnished place. Close to attractions. Good selection of streaming movies. Nice area, it is a little musty smelling but it is an older home. We had a good stay.

The property had everything we needed and was very cute, cozy and modern. Very walkable to downtown Ste. Genevieve. Hosts were very responsive when we had an issue with wifi and resolved it immediately. I would not plan 2 adults to sleep on the foldout couch, but 1 adult or 2 kids would be OK.

Property was extremely comfortable and inviting. The back yard is perfect for sitting and outdoor activities with a fire pit and surrounding area. Peaceful front porch with swing, relaxing place for morning coffee. Towering trees keep the property cool and shaded through the day. The property is accommodating and the attention to detail is notable, everything you need to make your stay perfectly enjoyable.

Absolutely perfect rental home and process. All amenities and AC worked flawlessly and communication was clear and accurate. We enjoyed the weekend with plenty to do in town. The beds were extremely comfortable and the kitchen was spacious. The outdoor fire and bbq area is well kept and has room to spread out. Would highly recommend and will return!

Sister weekend

We come down to Ste Genevieve for sister trip several times a year. Our parents live down there and we just make it a winery /sister weekend when we visit. This is the first time staying at this house though it has been in my radar for a while. Just adorable. The host thinks of every little detail. And it is decorated so cute. King size bed is one of the most comfortable beds I've slept in. The bedroom and the other room was comfy as well, though I do think it to be a full and not a queen. Not a deal breaker. I love the open floor plan and it just seems like a roomy place for four adults for the weekend. A lot of little extras are thought of and the area is close to downtown, walkable for sure. Will be back! Thanks :)
