Vacations

I'm gonna file this one under "tell us something we don't know", but it's still cool that Hannibal was called out as being one of the top 11 summer vacation spots by a national site.

There's a lot to love about this Missouri home. Inside it's immaculate and it's close to the Katy Trail which is one of the best bike trains in America. But, the big secret is what's hiding in the backyard - maybe one of the best pools in Missouri.

I don't know about you, but when I try to get away from it all, I really do try to get away from everything. That's kind of the idea. If you agree, there's a cabin I've found hidden in the middle of the woods in central Illinois that looks like a good option.

I have a soft spot in my heart for dogs and chickens and I'm pretty fond of treehouses, too. That's one reason I'm psyched to share an enchanting Missouri treehouse with you that includes all of those things.

It's hard to be this close to St. Louis yet still be private. But, that's exactly how I'd describe a cabin hidden on a hillside near Defiance, Missouri that includes a private lake and horses.

I have to admit that I didn't know Missouri had an alpine lake, but it's true. It's also accurate to say that alpine lake is just west of St. Louis and it's possible to live in the trees next to it.

My family would enjoy Columbia, Missouri more if we didn't have to deal with the traffic in the city all of the time. I think I may have found an option. It's a country estate about 15 minutes outside of Columbia and features a heated pool, paddle boats and a hot tub.

If you're interested in a staycation, I found a place in central Missouri that is loaded with water options galore. It has a pool outside, a hot tub inside and even a nearby lake.

I think I may have found the one Missouri place that checks all the boxes of a relaxing vacation. Private pool? Check. Got a hot tub? Yes, it does. What about a nice nature walk? You can do that to. Oh, and it overlooks Table Rock Lake.

Remember that treehouse you had as a kid? Well, it appears that it has now become an Airbnb in Missouri and the cool thing is you could hang there for a night for less than 50 bucks.
