Experience St. Louis at its best this fall. Stay on a quiet, tree-lined street in the historic Gate District, just minutes from Forest Park, Tower Grove Park, downtown attractions, and some of the city's best fall festivals. After a day of exploring colorful parks, cheering on the Cardinals or CITY SC, or enjoying local breweries and restaurants, come home to spacious living areas designed for families and groups to relax together.
Valid photo ID & signed rental contract required within 48 hours of booking, plus a $500 security deposit hold.
Eads Escape is all about gathering and grounding. Sunlight streams through floor to ceiling windows into an open living area that invites everyone to connect, while four spacious bedrooms give you room to recharge on your own terms. Curl up on the sectional for movie night, brew a pot of coffee in the morning and plan your next St. Louis adventure from a home base that feels both generous and cozy.
For families traveling with little ones, you’ll find a full-size baby crib, pack and play with sheets ready in the bedroom and a highchair waiting in the kitchen.
If under 25, please contact host for full house rules. No parties.
🛋️ Living Room
After a day exploring St. Louis, settle into the bright living room where a Smart TV and plush seating create the perfect spot for family movie night. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring in beautiful natural light and overlook the private deck area, framed by the house itself and side yard, offering brightness without street exposure. A chaise lounge completes the space, inviting you to curl up with a book or simply unwind.
🍳 Kitchen & Dining
Start your day with a Keurig or drip coffee on the side deck, then come back to a fully stocked kitchen ready for anything from quick breakfasts to fall dinners. With an air fryer, slow cooker, blender and ample cookware, it’s easy to prepare a home cooked meal. The main dining table seats ten, with extra spots at the kitchen nook and bar so everyone can linger over seconds.
🛏️ Bedrooms
On the main level, a king suite offers a memory foam mattress, blackout curtains, Smart TV and a playpen for little ones. Upstairs, a second king suite provides its own private bath and plenty of storage and a full-sized baby crib. A queen suite w/private bath is perfect for couples or solo travelers, while the double queen room – with two queen beds and a connecting door to the queen suite – is great for families or close friends. All rooms feature Smart TVs, USB outlets, extra pillows and a clean, uncluttered design.
🛁 Bathrooms
With three full bathrooms and a convenient half bath on the main level, no one will be waiting their turn. Expect plush towels, shampoo, conditioner, body wash and hair dryers in every bath. The half bath off the living area makes it easy for guests to freshen up without climbing stairs.
💻 Work & Connectivity
Need to jump on a call or dive into a project? The upstairs landing features a dedicated desk bathed in natural light. High speed WiFi keeps you connected, whether you’re streaming, gaming or taking a Zoom meeting.
🌿 Outdoor Space
Step out onto the side deck to greet the morning with a cup of coffee or unwind in the evening with a glass of wine. The quiet neighborhood and crisp fall air make this a perfect spot to relax after a day in the city.
🚗 Parking & Entry
Arriving is stress free with a private driveway and garage space for up to five vehicles, plus a secure smart lock for self check in. Exterior security cameras at the front and back offer peace of mind (no audio, and not monitored during your stay).
