Weekly studio cottage @Carlyle Lake

This property is next to historic Clark Cemetery. It is in a community that primarily belongs to boat club members who access the Boulder boat launch.

Although this small community is in the quiet countryside, there is a train that passes through the area periodically that I find pleasant and I hope you will too.

Carlyle Lake surrounds this community and supplies the local communities municipal water systems.

Most residents are here throughout the entire boating season (early spring through late fall), although there are some that are here year round.

The studio cottage is the oldest in the community, as most cottages here belong to RV'ers.

I'm hoping to rent out an additional 3 bedroom lake house next to the studio cottage that accommodates up to 8 in the coming year or so.Learn more about this land:This is an open floor plan studio cottage with two twins, full kitchen and 3/4 bath (shower without bathtub), toilet and sink.

This has 2 new beds, 2 TV's, 2 small dressers, new dining and living room furniture (except futon) and all new linens.

Nightly is no longer available due to hiring out cleaning people.

The porch is covered and about the same size as the whole house!

Please park directly behind the cottage. You pull in on Clark Cemetery Rd and follow the turn to the left and then right. You will see the basketball hoop at the end of the drive and turn left to pull up to the studio cottage.

This is available monthly at $2,000/month. All stays are minimum 7 days. You may stay less than 7 days, but must pay the 7 day rate minimum. Ex: 1-7 days is $700, 8+ days are $800, 900, etc. 28 days or more is $2000 minimum plus the continued discount for 30+ days.

Tranquillity

Many years ago, this area was a country get away for St. Louis city folks.  Now, the large farms are smaller farm estate residences for people like me who enjoy large trees, open land, wildlife, and some privacy.  

Harmony Hill Acres

Ranch lands of a prior Horse Ranch at the edge of town is conveniently located.  Most of the property is pasture area but plenty of yard for tent camping and LOTS of space for those who want to pitch a tent in the pastures. We have small goats, chickens, and turkeys on-site (please do not enter barn or animal pens).   There are no hookups for water or power, but we can accommodate some use of water from our spigots.  

We live about 2 miles from our local lake, which has boat access and paddling access.

The beautiful view of sunsets and sunrises are spectacular more times than not.  We host large herd of deer traveling and sometimes bedding down in our pastures, so be sure to watch early mornings for them to be on the move.  

We are very close to town, but the 18-acre site brings a serene aspect to the grounds.

***WE ARE BRINGING IN A PORTA-POTTY OR 2 FOR THE TENT CAMPERS OVER THE WEEKEND OF 4/6/24 SOLAR ECLIPSE.  WE ALSO HAVE A COTTAGE KITCHEN AND WILL HAVE A FEW BREAKFAST ITEMS, BREADS, AND SWEET BREADS FOR ORDER.

MC Lodging

MC Lodging is located on 15 acres. We have 29 sites with full hookup at each site. We are open year round. Our campground has a nice pond with some nice size fish. We have a pavilion with a laundromat and a shower house. We also have a playground for kids.if you’re looking for a nice secluded getaway, you have found it ❤️

View from the pond, our dog ready to jump in.
