Lakefront A-Frame · Hot Tub · Paddle Pontoon Boat

Welcome to City Scapes Vacation Rentals!

Imagine waking up to mist drifting off the water, stepping onto a wraparound deck cradled by towering oaks, coffee in hand, nothing but birdsong and the gentle lap of Lake Aspen below. This A-frame chalet on Innsbrook's Big Lake isn't just a getaway — it's the kind of place families return to year after year. Soaring vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, a private pontoon boat, hot tub, and lakefront dock. Missouri's best-kept secret, just 45 min west of St. Louis.

ABOUT THIS SPACE
Step inside and exposed wood beams rise to a cathedral peak, floor-to-ceiling windows flood the main floor with forest light, and a sliding glass door frames Lake Aspen from your living room. The large sectional sofa and smart TV anchor the living area. The full kitchen has everything for a long-weekend feast: stainless range, refrigerator, microwave, blender, coffee maker, and a full set of cookware.

Sleeping arrangements for up to 11 guests:
• Main-floor master — 1 king + 1 twin, sliding glass door to deck, exposed beam ceiling
• 3-season sunroom off the master — screened windows, wicker seating, a quiet reading perch
• Second-floor bedroom — queen + 2 twin beds under the steep A-frame roofline, full bath
• Sleeping loft — additional space above the main floor
• Living room flex — sofa bed + 1 single + 1 floor mattress

Both full baths are updated: the main-floor bath has a walk-in glass shower with subway tile; the upper bath sits beneath the A-frame's signature triangular window.

Outside is where this chalet earns its reputation. The wraparound deck is genuinely sprawling — Adirondack chairs, gas grill, and a private hot tub open year-round. Steps lead to the private lakefront:
• Dock on Lake Aspen (Innsbrook's 2nd largest lake)
• Paddle pontoon boat (seats 6) with life vests included
• 2 adult kayaks + 1 child kayak + 2 paddleboards
• Lakefront fire pit with Adirondack chairs and hammock

Also included: Pack 'n Play, board games, AC, keypad self check-in, free parking, pet-friendly.

WHO THIS HOME IS BEST FOR
• Families with kids: The water toys were made for them. Kids paddle the pontoon, kayak the cove, and fall asleep exhausted under the A-frame beams.
• Groups of friends: Sleeping 11 across rooms and flex spaces, this is the trip your group has been putting off. Days on the water, evenings at the fire pit, nights in the hot tub.
• Couples escaping the city: 45 minutes from St. Louis but feels like a different world. Hot tub on a Tuesday night, sunrise paddle, Augusta wine country in the afternoon.
• Multi-generational gatherings: The layout and capacity are ideal for grandparents, parents, and grandkids. The sunroom, deck, and open living area give everyone space to breathe and come together.
• Outdoor enthusiasts: Seven resort trails, kayaking at your door, fishing from the dock, fire pit under Missouri sky.
