The Cardinal Nest A Cozy Cottage on Historic Main Street; Pet Friendly

The Cardinal nest is the perfect place to lay your head if you are in town for a wedding, work, visiting family and friends or coming for a bike ride on the Katy Trail. Located directly on the historic cobblestone streets of downtown St. Charles just steps away from shopping and dining at unique restaurants and one-of-a-kind boutiques. This location is a rare find! Near the Conservatory, The Stone Chapel and the St. Charles Convention Center, you will find this the perfect spot for wedding guests. Lindenwood University is just a few blocks away and just 8 miles from St. Louis Lambert Airport. Classic Main Street St. Charles is a photographers dream with picturesque backdrops at every corner. Just across the highway you can visit the upscale "Streets of St. Charles" for more shopping and dining, a movie theatre and casino.

The nest has 2 bedrooms, 1 full and 1 queen and will host 4 guests. The sweet little house hosts 2 units with the front unit being this listing, and offers a washer and dryer in the unfinished basement. The kitchen is fully prepared for cooks as well as a Keurig coffee maker. The design is clean, modern, and minimal. The nest's unique layout will make this stay one to remember. Please note: Guests must walk through one of the bedrooms to get to the bathroom or the other bedroom. Please check our twin site Robin/Cardinal Nest for additional availability...

Great Little Spot
It's a great spot very close to downtown, right on the edge of most of the activity so it's still quiet. The place was clean and great for the price.

I could not have made a better choice for a place to stay in St. Charles. The property was clean and arranged to make the stay homey and comfortable. The location on Main Street was perfect for walking proximity to the historic area, This was my first experience with VRBO; I was very pleased.
