Sisters Birthday Trip
The overall property was nicely decorated with both modern and antique decor. There were a few negatives, however,. They were: no toiletries for the bathrooms, no bathtub/shower rugs no hand towels, no condiment nor coffee for the coffee maker and no lce or place to buy them TV was very bad and hard to operate and lastly, wasn't aware until the day we arrive d just how steep the stairs were getting up to the apartment, especially for three 80 plus year olds. Inconvenient amenities for the money. , Y only gas nicely decoraand had bothoderm and antique

Wonderful Place
We had a wonderful stay in this VRBO. Very clean! Comfortable beds and spacious. Quiet and near the town breweries and eating places. Would highly recommend staying here. The rooms are just like the pictures. ADORABLE! The owners are available if anything comes up and are quick to respond. We would stay here again!

Property is amazing. Very clean. I would caution anyone with difficulty climbing stairs to choose one of the ground floor units. Bring your own soap and shampoo for bathing. Overall a great accommodation in the heart of wine country

The fire alarm went off for no reason at 1:30 am and earlier that day. No hot water in the shower in master bedroom the duration of stay. The sink did have hot water. Called before booking and was told there were stairs but they were not steep. But that was not true, we had a person using a walker. Part of accommodation were rustic looking and part modern. It was a nice experience.

Not enough parking. We had to park across the street. You can hear everything from downstairs
This was a beautiful space. Far from my brother in laws place but that was okay. Close to wineries . Parking was limited to first come first serve. We were in the upstairs unit and could hear a fly from downstairs. That was the main problem for us. Once again the unit was beautiful

I rented the second floor of the Ruebling House, and it was very charming, clean, and updated. The beds were super comfortable and the rain shower off the master bedroom was awesome. I traveled to Defiance for a wedding, so the location was convenient. The only draw back was the limited parking. The whole house was rented out in addition to the back cottage making it difficult to find a parking spot.

Delightful stay in a lovely setting
Along with my brother and sister-in-law we were in the area for their grandson’s graduation celebration. This unit of The Ruebling House was the perfect place for our 3-night stay. Our contact, Julie was very accommodating and we were able to put our things in the unit even though we had arrived a bit before check-in time. We found everything to be very clean and well-supplied. Perhaps the only small drawback was that there are very few dining options and no grocery stores in the immediate area. However, we were aware of this when making our plans and so brought everything we needed (and more) from home. On Sunday morning of our stay the power went out just as we were starting breakfast. A quick call to Julie and she made a few calls and confirmed it was a countywide weather-related outage so we made other breakfast arrangements and by the time we got back power had been restored. We enjoyed our stay immensely. (My husband thought the shower in the larger bathroom was simply amazing). We would not hesitate to stay here again when back in the area.

The apartment was beautiful and yet quite functional. The updated bathrooms and kitchen were very much appreciated. Everything you would need was in the cabinets. The decor was very well done and fit with the style of an older home. The locations was perfect for visiting local wineries, hiking the Katy Trail, and a quick visit to St Louis to visit family. Adding towel bars and hand towels would be my only suggestions, and would hope the faint but baked-in cigarette smoke would abate over time.

We will be back!
First appearance is amazing, the house is gorgeous from the inside out, Erin one of the Owners gave us a tour of the house and she was very kind. Not to mention had an awesome name. (My name is Erin too!) The experience was wonderful when you walk in you have a brand new house smell, the beds are very comfortable not to mention the stocked kitchen! You have everything you need to cook anything with exception of the food of course! They have brand new dishwasher, stove, refrigerator, washer and dryer and from what i experienced all worked wonderfully. Its also walking distance from The bar, The Steak House and the Katy Trails! My Daughter, My Husband and I will most definitely be back. The only disappointment of it all was having to leave.
