Summary: From the beginning the host was super helpful & responding quick to questions which really sealed the deal on choosing their place. Coming from STL I was not familiar at all with the area but location was perfect as well as the house for 4 kids under 10 & two dogs. Alley Springs (5 minutes away) has great river banks to hang out on. The hosts house has a nice fenced in front yard for the dogs with a large backyard area & fire pit for our family to hang out at.
