This was the best stocked VRBO we have ever rented. The hostess was very responsive although we didn’t have any issues. Our group was elderly adults so it was great to have all the bedrooms on the main level. We enjoyed our stay and have already requested it for next year.

Retro Ranch was Vibin’

We chose the VRBO based on size and location. For those reasons, it was an excellent choice. Plenty of room, plenty of bathrooms, and plenty of hot water for us all. Pool was a nice bonus, with sauna, and laundry. All was clean and ready to go upon arrival. We were about 5 minutes fromMy parents’ house, and had access to everything Ballwin has to offer.

Loved the pool area

The hosts were wonderful, the pool and the whole pool experience was top notch! The house was laid out well with everything we needed including a ton of toys throughout the house. We got there before our daughter and her family and every room was set up for our almost 3 year old granddaughter. Oma loved showering her around the house!

Family vacation

Mike and Deborah made the home very friendly and welcoming. The pool was great, our 11 year old grandson, who was afraid of putting his head in the water learned to dive for toys, and your 7 year old granddaughter learned to swim the length of the pool. Thanks for a great week.

Host set-up and communication was outstanding, as usual for her.

Everything was simply wonderful. It would take many words too describe the pleasure and enjoyment that my granddaughter had with the house use for her 5th birthday. Her 7 children family & friends guest were overjoyed and their parents enjoyed the house too. My 5 year old granddaughter said “It was the best Birthday party ever!” And that’s what I wanted to hear. We’ll back for other family and business gatherings.

Awesome family time

We had a great time (again!) at this amazing property. The pool is a dream—and the rest of the house laid out so well for being together but with so many options, including kids having room (& awesome toys) to play, while parents can supervise, but hang out with each other nearby. The outdoor space is relaxing and beautiful, and very private—yet the house is close to nearby stores/restaurants. We also appreciate the check-out requirements: very minimal and reasonable, which helps maintain the relaxing experience.

Indoor pool saved vacation

My husband and I took our 5 grandkids (and 3 of their parents) to St Louis for Spring Break. We chose St Louis because it was a reasonable drive with a lot to do around the city. It poured down rain the whole time we were there but, having the pool to come back to after an excursion made everything better. Not to mention the vast supply of “retro” toys. The kids were never bored. Deborah also went out of her way to leave small gifts for each of our grandkids to enjoy when they arrived. She was also on top of all communication if a problem arose and fixed it. We would recommend Retro Ranch to any group , but especially to families with younger kids!
