3 Bedroom Chalet, Hot Tub, Fireplace. Walk to Town.

Cathedral ceilings, exposed wood beams, a 25' stone fireplace, and private outdoor hot tub are featured in this 2 story timber frame home. Three bedrooms (King, Queen, and Full beds) sleep a maximum of 6 guests. Room darkening shades will help you get the rest you need! The main floor bathroom has a shower/tub and there is a private bath for the loft bedroom featuring a soaking tub. We provide linens, bathroom amenities, kitchen supplies, and starters (coffee, tea, filters, sugar, sweetener, creamer, paper products).

Timberwolf Chalet is only 30 minutes from downtown St. Louis in a safe, friendly Illinois town that is part of the St. Louis metro area. We think our location is perfect - in a quiet neighborhood with a short walk to downtown Waterloo. We have plenty of parking spaces.

Guests love our clean, well-stocked and tranquil chalet. After a soak in the outdoor hot tub, warm up inside next to the fireplace while enjoying premium cable channels. There are 4 TVs (2 bedroom Roku TVs allow streaming), a DVD player, some DVDs, and free WIFI. The dining room table seats 6 for a meal or game of cards plus there are 2 bar stools by the kitchen.

Play some Cornhole then sit around the firepit and enjoy your favorite beverage. Or borrow a couple of our folding chairs (in the hall closet) to enjoy free summer Tuesday night band concerts and Sunday concert series at the town square. Our area features award winning public golf courses, parks, wineries, craft beer brewing companies, historical sites, and shops/boutiques. We're an easy drive to larger shopping centers and are in close proximity to major interstate highways: 255, 55, 44, 64 & 70.

We allow guests 12+ but do not allow pets. We are a non-smoking home. No parties are permitted on the properties, which are protected by external security cameras.

Check-in is at 3 p.m. and check-out is at 11 a.m.

Beautiful Home
We and our friends truly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home. The architecture and uniqueness of this property is amazing. It had everything we needed and would be perfect for families with children also. It is centrally located in Waterloo and is close to many interesting restaurants and shops. We would highly recommend.

Great small town spot
Great communication with owner- and a really nice house with a cute small town setting. We had four kids and two adults and we all fit comfortably. The older kids loved the board game loft- and we appreciated the baby gates on all the stairways. Thanks!

A really nice place
The house is very nice. Near St. Louis yet in a nice small town. The sleeping arrangements were perfect for us. A bedroom with twin beds upstairs, a master bedroom on the main floor, and another queen bedroom downstairs. An impressive place!

Beautiful chalet with everything you need!
Absolutely loved staying at the Timberwolf! Rika was wonderful to work with and provided a bunch of recommendations within walking distance. The chalet is beautiful! The whole layout was inviting and the kitchen is stocked with everything you could possibly need. My daughter and son-in-law stayed in the main floor bedroom and said the bed was nice and comfortable. I stayed downstairs and enjoyed the cool privacy as well as the firm bed! I have back issues so the mattress really helped me get a good night's sleep. I also enjoyed the claw foot rub in the upstairs bathroom! Rika thank you so much for sharing your wonderful home with us! We loved our stay and will definitely book again if we are in the area!

Home away from home
From the moment you walked into the chalet you felt at home it was warm & inviting and decorated beautifully. It was the perfect place to stay with my pup we enjoyed our walks around the neighborhood. I visited the Cahokia Mounds State historical site and found it very interesting I would recommend it to anyone who likes history. Overall our stay was wonderful & I would stay here again if passing thru Waterloo.

We absolutely loved our stay at this location. It was close to a grocery and movie theatre and only 30 minutes from St. Louis. The house felt like a home away from home. Perfect for our getaway!

nice cozy lodge
this property is very well kept, clean, and full of amenities. It was great for our family as we have a toddler, and the built in wooden gates on the stairs were great, as well as the owner supplied playpen and high chair and toddler seat. Owner was quick to respond to both questions we had. I highly recommend.

Loved our Visit!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the chalet in Waterloo. At first I was hesitant to book because we were planning on spending so much of our time in St Louis. So glad we did because in 25 minutes you can be in the downtown area. We attended a baseball game, the arch, Budweiser and other downtown attractions. We also managed to enjoy a couple of great meals in Waterloo and a hike. Chalet was very clean. Everything you need is provided. Love the pay it forward approach and our only regret is that we could not stay longer!

Great getaway in a great little town!
Our family of 5 truly enjoyed the slowed down pace of Waterloo, with a walk through the little shops and dinner at Gallagher’s! The Chalet was beautiful, well kept and clean, and it had everything we needed, and the owner was great to work with, and promptly answered our questions prior to booking. We throughly enjoyed our time here as our first stop on our family vacation! We also loved the Bean Tree Cafe! Delicious and was worth the stop on our way out of town! Thank you Rika for sharing your home with us! My only regret is not making it to the Vintage Wine Bar! Perhaps next time!

Perfect!
The chalet looked exactly like the pictures. It was a beautiful house and setting in the historic town of Waterloo. It was VERY clean, comfortable and close to St. Louis. We came for my son's graduation at Wash U. and commuted back and forth each day. It housed my whole family comfortably. We could spend evenings together in the living room and around the dining room table and were not separated by staying in different hotel rooms. I would recommend this Chalet to anyone coming to St. Louis or the surrounding area!

Comfortable well appointed home
Our family is from the area, yet we have relocated. The hosts allowed us to rent their home for Christmas. The hosts and property manager were incredibly thoughtful with every detail. They even decorated the home with charming Christmas decorations, inside and out. The kitchen is well appointed and allowed for us to make family meals. The convenient location was perfect for our adult children to visit frequently. The home is attractive, comfortable and linens are nice. The neighborhood is quiet and safe, the yard is peaceful and was beautiful with the snow. Everything was impeccably clean, inside and out. The property manager lives nearby and is very helpful. Waterloo has several charming restaurants and shops for entertainment, and Schnucks is very handy. We would highly recommend this home to all.
