PEACEFUL RETREAT
The Pointer Haus was a family home for several decades and is now open to families like you for a retreat of peace and relaxation while you are in the area. Whether you are here to compete at Purina Events, for business, exploring Missouri parks and wine country, biking the Katy Trail, or visiting family for a wedding or holiday, the Pointer Haus will be your place to rejuvenate.
GREAT ROOM
The great room area includes a large sofa sleeper, two chairs, and a 65 inch TV set up for streaming your favorite apps.
*Note that you will need to have your own Netflix, Hulu, Dish. etc. accounts to access those features as we do not share our accounts with you.*
FIREPLACE AREA
This area is our fave, with the wrap around sectional that you sink into and prop your feet up on the stools. Or claim the leather recliner as your spot for the evening. This area is located in the middle of the home, open to the kitchen and breakfast table.
KITCHEN and DINING
Fully equipped kitchen with stove, refrigerator, dishwasher and microwave as well as several small appliances that you can't live without (i.e. Keurig, regular coffeemaker, teapot). The Pointer Haus is equipped with plenty of place settings, solid flatware, and sleek glassware, as well as wine glasses for relaxing.
There are three different spaces to eat your meals together. One is the breakfast table next to the kitchen, second is the main dining room, and third is the dining set on the back deck.
BACK DECK
Shaded by the oak trees, the back deck has a dining set as well as a barbecue grill.
FRONT PORCH AND YARD
A newly landscaped front walk and front porch welcome you to enjoy a cup of morning coffee or relax in the evening with local beer or wine while Fido plays in the yard. With over an acre of private grassy yard, feel free to run, jump, and play.
In addition, shoot some hoops in the driveway or toast marshmallows over the fire pit.
FAMLY ROOM
Lower level family room is the perfect hang out area to chill. With a pool table, foosball, and 65 inch TV as well as a recliner and a reclining couch. Kick back or take up some competition with your family.
