Steelville is nestled in the foothills of the Ozark Mountains and is on the Meramec River. The City's website says it's the perfect setting for outdoor recreational activities. They mention hiking, canoeing, and enjoying the spectacular views. That's before they get into Steelville's quaint Main Street which the city promises will take you back to a more gracious and elegant time. The Meramec River in Missouri Is the Perfect escape.

Staying here was absolutely wonderful. The hosts truly thought of everything you could possibly need, and then some. Being able to walk to the river was a great amenity, and the floating outfitter we used even picked us up and dropped us off at the front door. This is a great option for anyone looking for a clean, well-stocked, comfortable, and convenient place to stay!

I’m not given to hyperbole, but Viola’s Cottage exceeds expectations. It is spacious, well furnished, and the host labeled everything to make the stay easy, including which electrical switch controlled what, and what was in each cabinet. The property is not far from the highway, but seems an eternity away from hustle and bustle. You can almost sense the presence of Grandma Viola who lived there years ago. There’s a palpable peace about the place. I could say so much more, but space does not allow. Suffice it to say that the accommodations, the beautiful peaceful location on the hill, the privacy and quiet, and the attentiveness of the host make this one of the best deals you’ll find on VRBO. As most of the other reviews reflect, you can’t really experience how wonderful this place is, until you actually experience it.

This was our 3rd stay at Viola's Cottage. We highly recommend it. This home has so many "little extras" like labeling the cabinets for easier finds, firewood, outdoor seating, bug spray, all the dishes/pot/pans/crockpot you need to make a meal. Seasonings,plenty of towels, toilet paper, trash bags, etc. So many extra touches. The onwers are easy to talk to, stopping by to say hello and to check if everything is suitable?! Check in was easy. The property is beautiful to view while drinking coffee on the covered porch! We've seen deer and turkey! We absolutely love it. 10/10

We absolutely LOVE Viola’s Cottage! This was our 2nd stay and it was amazing both times! Peggy and Jon are the best hosts! They go above and beyond…..the labels on everything, having everything you need, the communication, the cleanliness of the cottage…the list goes on! Thank you so much for sharing your cottage with us!! We will definitely be back and Viola’s will be the only place we stay in the Steelville area! 3
