We had an amazing stay at the Rock House in Salem, MO! The house was spotless, cozy, and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. The host went above and beyond—there were snacks waiting for us when we arrived, along with shampoo, conditioner, and other thoughtful touches that made it feel like home. You can tell a lot of care is put into keeping the place clean and welcoming. Highly recommend this rental if you’re in the area!

Cute Stay

Comfortable and convenient location for a short trip. The only reason I took a few stars off was because of the mold in the freezer and some spiders and ants in the kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom. If those hadn’t been there, the stay would’ve been perfect.

Hidden Gem

The pictures do not do this little cottage justice. It is immaculately maintained and stocked with everything you could possibly need. I found the decor charming. It has a beautiful big lawn in the back with a deck to watch the fireflies in the evening. I will definitely be back when I am in the area.

Quaint Stone House

Sweet stone house. Very clean with all the necessities and lots of little extra touches like a goody basket in the kitchen. We loved all the windows in the eating area looking out on the back grassy area. Good central location to explore the area around Salem. Easy check in and check out. Saundra was great to communicate with. We would definitely stay here again.

It was a perfect little getaway. Very clean. Good water pressure. Comfy bed. Fireflies off the deck at dusk were magical. The only thing that I would say is that the bedroom gets very bright in the morning so if you’re sensitive to bright sunlight bring a sleep mask. Great restaurants in town. All in all a great experience.
