Located just minutes from downtown St. Louis, Urban Surprise is in a secure parking area with 30 amp, water, and sewer. Close to many popular spots including Busch Stadium, Arch, Forrest Park, St Louis City SC and Convention Center. Whether you're staying for a long visit or just a quick stop, there is lots to see and do nearby. The large gravel lot (22'x60') where you'll be staying is in a fenced area with cameras and good lighting. Gate opens to 15'. Must be self-contained as there are no bathrooms on site. Potable water is available via spigot. Wifi is included. No fires and please clean up after your pets. The location is urban. It's not in a tranquil country setting. Lots of hustle and bustle, city sights and sounds. Located in the neighborhood of Hyde Park. Lots of interesting architecture and history. There is also an Airbnb located at this property and can be booked separately. https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/815996783041353041?guests=1&adults=1&s=67&unique_share_id=5012e5e0-3425-4ca5-ac41-51d5afd9f2e8Located just minutes from downtown St. Louis, Urban Surprise is in a secure parking area with 30 amp, water, and sewer.

It’s a place to sleep well on the road. Like owner said it’s in the city so be ready for city sound. Lots of space and felt safe

A great overnight!
This was a really convenient spot off the interstate. I felt very safe and enjoyed the lovely garden. Also the availability of 30 amp was great! I did take a walk to nearby Hyde park and it was a good spot to walk the dog. Jeff was very communicative and responded right away when I had a question about the gate.

Nice spot near downtown St. Louis. Completely fenced with locked gate which was nice for security. The dogs enjoyed being off leash in the grass. Camper parking is level and well maintained gravel. Quiet, clean spot, would recommend.

This is a wonderful spot with a locked gate, full RV hookup, easy access to the interstate, and a few minutes from tourist spots. Great host as well!

A Very Nice Surprise
We originally booked it as a place to park our trailer for a week while visiting our kids in St. Louis. But we actually ended up staying there in our trailer because it was so quiet and we felt very safe. The site was super clean, quite spacious, there was very nice garden and we locked the gate each night. The area of Hyde Park in STL is undergoing a bit of a renaissance, so at first glance it’s not all that pretty, but camping in Jeff’s spot gave us an appreciation of the area. We did get to meet Jeff and told him we’ll be back! If you’re on a road trip and need a place - whether it’s for the night, for the week or just for the day, we highly recommend it!

Best price in town for privacy!
Nice peaceful private spot! Very close to the city. Sad i got in too late to explore. Neighborhood reminded me of Detroit. Secure locking gate, fast WiFi, Nice wide fence to pull in & out, Jeff’s a good guy, he even checked the entire grounds when i thought i left my wallet behind (found the next day in my tool bag btw!) Only downside for me was backing out. My sewer is on driver side & I dont like a long sewer hose running under rig. So i pulled straight in, but backing out was tricky due to uneven ground and broken sidewalk in alley, made things difficult with my hitch platform on the back. but we got out fine, just something to be aware of. Would stay again!
