What
a
find
Boone's
Lick
Trail
Inn
was
for
us!
My
fiancee
and
I
went
on
a
trip
to
St.
Charles,
MO
to
celebrate
a
personal
milestone
she
achieved.
We
were
greeted
with
Prosecco
and
amazing,
locally
made
chocolates
(you
can
pre-order
this
and
other
treats
when
making
your
reservation).
The
wonderful
innkeeper,
Venetia,
asked
us
to
call
ahead
when
we
were
about
15
minutes
out,
as
the
parking
situation
was
potentially
a
bit
confusing.
The
lot
appears
to
be
a
defunct
street,
so
it
is
roped
off
to
prevent
non-guests
from
parking
in
the
lot.
Sure
enough,
when
we
arrived,
Venetia
and
her
husband
were
out
there
to
great
us
and
they
simply
pulled
the
rope
off
one
of
the
stanchions
and
we
drove
right
in
and
parked.
We
left
only
once
to
drive
to
a
couples'
massage
a
few
miles
away
and
simply
pulled
the
rope
off
(and
put
it
back)
ourselves.
Easy
as
pie.
Venetia
also
gave
us
a
nice
orientation
on
the
Inn,
the
area,
and
things
to
see
and
do.
We
had
Room
#4
which
was
on
the
second
floor
in
the
rear
part,
just
up
the
outdoor
staircase.
It
was
comfortable
and
cozy
and
married
an
old-world
feel
with
modern
amenities.
In
many
ways,
it
was
like
taking
a
step
back
in
time,
but
in
the
best
possibe
way!
The
bed
was
super
comfortable
and
the
shower
in
the
bathroom
was
nice
and
hot
-
two
of
my
main
criteria
for
a
room.
A
delightful
covered
porch
overhangs
the
upstairs
rooms.
We
wanted
to
cuddle
under
a
blanket
on
the
love
seat
there
and
people
watch
at
night,
but
we
did
not
find
the
time
-
there
is
so
much
to
do
and
see!
The
location
is
excellent
as
well,
as
it
is
essentially
at
one
end
of
old
St.
Charles.
It
is
situated
just
off
the
Katy
Trail
and
probably
a
three-minute
walk
to
the
excellent
Lewis
and
Clark
Museum.
So
many
major
historical
events
have
happened
literally
within
feet
of
this
Inn.
For
meals,
we'd
suggest
the
Bike
Stop
Cafe
(we
had
excellent
breakfasts
there),
Novellus
Bar
(life-changing
biscuits
and
gravy
breakfast),
Bella
Vino
Wine
Bar
&
Tapas
for
dinner,
and
Lewis
&
Clark
Restaurant.
All
were
fantastic.
We
will
certainly
return
to
St.
Charles,
and
we
will
certainly
be
staying
at
Boone's
Lick
Trail
Inn
again!
