Nice Stay
My group had a good time staying at this Innsbrook A-frame. We stayed following a snowstorm and that presented us with a few issues, but the owner was very fast at responding to our messages and apologetic about the problems. If I were to stay here again, I would likely stay in the summer opposed to the winter. The snow-covered gravel drive was tough to get up and the house didn’t respond to the winter weather well. We still enjoyed our stay in this beautiful location.

Great place, highly recommend!
Loved the house, very clean, great amenities (lots of coffee, plenty of towels, shampoo/conditioner dispenser in the shower, extra blankets). The deck and lake view were perfect in the morning with a cup of coffee. Checkin was easy and Michael provided good communication and instructions. We didn’t end up using the kayaks but it was nice they were available if we’d had time. The bedroom ceiling is not very soundproof so light sleepers be warned if someone stays in the upstairs bedroom, but otherwise we really liked everything about the house and would definitely stay again!

Perfect Hideway
The chalet has plenty of space, very clean, well furnished (inside and outside) had plenty in the ways of dishes/other odd or ends to be comfortable. It is a great location if you enjoy fishing (fish are just jumping out of the water wanting you to catch them), kayaking, stargazing, deer watching, or the outdoors.
Really enjoyed our stay and would stay again. It is also close enough to St. Louis if you would like to do a day trip; the zoo and City Muesem are amazing.

PERFECT WEEKEND GETAWAY
This house was incredibly charming and plenty spacious for our little crew! We loved being tucked away in the woods and the private dock/kayaks were so much fun! The beds were very comfortable, showers worked great and the ac was phenomenal. We enjoyed the community pool our first day and geneva beach the next. The fire pit had plenty of seating and smores were the perfect way to end our weekend getaway. We will definitely be returning to Innsbrook!

Lovely, Relaxing Getaway
This adorable lake house did not disappoint for a fun, relaxing ladies’ getaway. It is a beautiful, rustic lake house with modern updates that make you feel comfortable and at home. The owner’s organization, amenities, and communication were impressive and made our stay seamless. The Innsbrook Resort was gorgeous and offers so many fun options. The winery nearby was also a fun bonus. I would without a doubt want to come back to this lake house with my family as well!

Innsbrook Doesn't Disappoint
Innsbrook is a location we visit when we need a last minute vacation as it provides some peace and quiet along with the convenience of being close to home. We used the provided kayaks daily for fishing the small lake and otherwise hung out in the cabin during the hottest part of the day. We only left the chalet once to visit the newer ice cream shop inside the resort for the first time although we have stayed in Innsbrook several times. Host was great in getting in touch with me for a few items I accidentally left behind and I was able to retrieve them later the same day.

Best ladies get away ever!
What a wonderful property!!! It had all the comforts of home in a gorgeous and relaxing setting. The beds were so comfortable. The a/c worked great! There was a smart TV in the family room and primary bedroom. We grilled and kayaked and fished and loved pool time at the main pool. We took several hikes on the beautiful trails and saw little waterfalls, beautiful dragonflies and wild flowers. Mike was easy to stay in touch with and was very accommodating. Highly recommend- just what 3 special education therapists needed to relax after a long school year❤️

Girl’s Getaway
My friend and I and our teenaged daughters just spent a weekend at this beautifully decorated chalet. It had everything we needed for a fun and relaxing stay. The girls enjoyed the kayaks and there was a closet full of life vests. Also available were board games and puzzles, firewood, beach towels and a fully stocked kitchen including coffee, seasonings and cooking oils. Beds were comfy and towels soft and plentiful. Check in was easy and Michael was always available to answer any questions. We didn’t want to leave and are already talking about coming back next year!

Incredible Weekend with Girlfriends!
Our group of girlfriends stayed at the peaceful lake chalet for a long weekend. It was amazing! The place was very clean and had plenty of stocked cupboards with dishes + utensils we needed to make meals. We loved the view of the water and outdoor deck space, plus the opportunity to walk in nature. The area also has a cute little Market and everyone we encountered was very friendly. A 5 Star stay for us!

Great spot, excellent host, great location
Very clean and modernized finish. Large, well-located TV with a sound bar. Everything advertised was at least met if not better. We specifically sought a property that wasn't buried behind 20 minutes of 5 MPH gravel roads like our previous visit to Innsbrook, and the location was excellent in terms of getting to the pool and highway in reasonable time while still feeling like a getaway.
Our main dings would be the HVAC and lighting. The air conditioner is loud and powerful, and had a tendency to cycle between too-cold and off on the main floor while the second guest bedroom upstairs ran toasty. Most of the lighting fixtures were single warm bulbs, and the whole place was so dim by evening that we didn't find it reasonably possible to play board games or read.
The host was *incredibly* responsive and kind, and ended up purchasing, assembling, and delivering a couple of floor lamps to us mid-trip when we messaged about the lighting. While it didn't fully solve the general lighting issues, it helped, and the hospitality was stellar.
All things considered, great spot with an excellent host that I would recommend to others.

First time at Innsbrook
The chalet was clean and nicely stocked. Shadow lake is a smaller lake but serene and beautiful. We loved kayaking around and caught several fish. Will definitely stay here again.
