Stunning Cabin

by Zac M.

5 out of 5 stars

We have been coming to Jessica's cabins for years but this is our first time to this new cabin and we absolutely loved it. Clean, comfortable, and located close to 4J's private Meramec river access. We love being within a mile of the winery and the river. Jessica has always been great to deal with and makes sure our stays meet our expectations. Do yourself a favor and order meat from their farm. It is top notch!!! I keep asking when they will change there name to 4J resort as they have all that you need - floating, horseback riding, walking trails, and winery close by!!! WE LOVE THIS PLACE!!!

Awesome Place!!!

We have been to 3 of 4J's properties over the last 2 years. This cabin is one of our favorites, it is secluded and had everything we needed for a great time. Our kids loved the the large yard, exploring the surrounding woods, and the dart board and ping pong table downstairs. The river access they offer is amazing and the pavilion is an awesome place for an afternoon bbq by the river. We can't express how much we love coming to 4J's properties as we always know it will be first class!!!!!

from $180 / night
