A cute little house almost on the Katy Trail. Bring your bikes, bring your dog, bring your friends.
After a long day of riding the Katy Trail and enjoying the local wineries and breweries, or maybe you are in the area celebrating a wedding, the Katy Haus is your place to kick back and relax.
THE SPACE
Located nearly on the Katy Trail in Marthasville, Missouri, the Katy Haus is in Missouri wine country and less than an hour from St. Louis.
Bike shuttle and rentals available nearby (seasonal), the best pizza in the county is steps from the door, and wineries are a short bike ride down the Katy Trail (or a 2 minute drive down the road).
Ride the Amtrak train to Washington and get a bike shuttle to the Katy Haus to ride the Katy Trail.
The Katy Haus is a one level little house with 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom (handicapped friendly). It sleeps a total of 4 people and is dog friendly.
We love daylight and filled the house with it. The open great room has extra tall ceilings, large windows, and a luxury king sleeper sofa.
The full kitchen has everything you need except to make your own meals, including place settings, pots and pans, wine glasses, and both a Keurig and a regular coffee maker.
The single bedroom has a king size bed with crisp white linens from The Distinguished Guest and light blocking curtains for sleeping late.
And the bathroom, well, guests have commented that it is the best shower ever. Extra large in size and has a handheld shower head for extra accessibility.
OUTDOOR SPACE
Hot tub and a fenced yard is now in place for you and your doggies! Fully fenced for privacy with a nice grassy area for your doggie to play.
BIKE SHED
We now have a bike shed (shared with the Bank Haus) if you would like to store your bikes.
WINERIES
Lake Creek Winery is only 2 miles down the road. Blumenhoff Winery in Dutzow is 6 miles by bike, and Augusta Brew Haus is 13 miles by bike.
WEDDINGS
Are you attending a wedding nearby at Boone Monument Village (2 minutes), Lake Creek Winery (2 minutes), or in the nearby town of Washington (8 minutes)? We are happy to host you!
For large groups, reserve both the Katy Haus and Bank Haus as they are next door to one another.
NEIGHBORHOOD
Katy Haus is located on Depot Street, what used to be the main street in Marthasville, an historic town that just celebrated its 200th anniversary. Depot is now a sleepy street that sees more people biking and walking than driving cars.
Philly's Pizza is across the side street from the Katy Haus and has delicious pizza. Write your names on the walls inside Philly's to let people know you were there, too.
Note that the MFA Co-op is directly across the street in front of the Katy Haus. This is a working grain silo location for area farmers and does produce dust during loading and unloading of grain and corn occasionally throughout the day.
Observe a small town American farming community during your stay in Marthasville!
