Undara Studio

We have both led lives that involved traipsing about the globe, bouncing continent to continent, but a few years ago we gave ourselves the opportunity to simplify and settle in (or, for Keith, to return to) the Ozarks. After enjoying non-commercial, owner-hosted properties in a few countries, we decided to open our doors to like/open-minded souls, to offer an escape, a place to ground and recharge. In just a few years, through our three offerings, we've hosted well over 1000 guests, sharing innumerable tales and countless bottles of wine. Hosting is just something we enjoy.

Matt's Place at Meramec n Labarque

Located at the confluence of the Meramec River and Labarque Creek, my place (Matt's Place) is a ridge above a bottomland bowl of sorts. 
The old iron truss bridge here is likely built in 1910 and it has a survey marker from 1932. 
The creek has a nice little swimming hole, and a beach that is sometimes sand, sometimes, gravel, and sometimes a mix of both with some silt or even mud after a storm. It's peaceful down there to explore in the creek, wade while looking outward to an opening into the Meramec River. It's also fun to stand just at the mouth of the creek in the Meramec River. It's an awesome view upstream or downstream of tree lined banks, rock bluffs, and every now and then, passing boats, canoes, paddle boards, or kayaks. The old iron truss bridge hovers above the meeting of two waters. The water is cool and clean. Some fifty species of fish have been recorded in this creek, the most in all of Jefferson County and St Louis County. The bottomland has two levels, the lower bottoms down by the creek and the upper bottoms about a hundred feet from the creek. The upper bottoms has a clearing like a meadow with mowed grass.
My favorite things to do here include gazing up at a cottonwood tree that must be sixty feet tall. It's leaves in a breeze are like a thousand hands waving hello. The bottomland meadow offers just enough sky to see bats dance in the dusk air between the trees, then fireflies as it gets darker yet. Up top is where I live. 
Just five miles off HWY 44 and HWY 109, at Eureka, MO,&nbsp;(30 minutes west of downtown St Louis, 18 minutes from Six Flags)&nbsp;this place sits on a ridge with great views above  the Meramec River. 

This is site 1. It is on the ridge near an old iron bridge, looking out over the Meramec River. This site is walkable, about 350 feet from parking on gravel drive (near my house) or one may park a vehicle or motorcycle at the campsite.

Panoramic view of the picnic and campsite up on the ridge looking out over near the bridge.

This is site 2. This site has the most open grassy area for a larger group or for playing frisbee, horseshoes, or stargazing. SIte 2 also has a large picnic table, a garden hose for water, a 110v electric outlet, a fan, and a Weber bbq kettle.

Near Site 2. Labarque Creek is one of the cleanest creeks in Missouri, with 50 species of fish. Great place to put in or take out canoes, swim, picnic, and camp. Great picnic site or take-out ramp for a day trip of floaters. Up near the bridge is Site 1.

SIte 1. View to old iron truss bridge on a centuries-old abandoned section of road.

Site 3. Great place for tents, and camp or cooking fire. Horseshoe pits are here, and there is a hose that can be used to fill water bottles or to wash sand of dirt off your feet after a swim. Creek 200 feet away. 

This hammock is up close to my house, but of course you can relax here if you wish. I love watching canoes and kayaks float by on weekends. Or bring your own hammock and string it up in the bottomland where I've kept many trees to be hammock distance apart.

SIte 2. Labarque Creek campsite with 8 person tent available as a spare. This is the campsite nearest the creek for those wanting to swim, wade, or fish.

SIte 1. Winter view from bridge of ridge along the Meramec River looking up towards my house. My dog Bella. She's a good dog, but can also be kept indoors if that's what makes sense.

Site 1. Camp this mossy ridge above Meramec River at Labarque Creek, Old ruins of an iron truss bridge, likely built circa 1910. Oaks and sugar maples arch over the ridge like a cathedral ceiling. The view from the bridge is spectacular. Eagles, herons, hawks.

Crooked Creek Ranch

Grand Army Farm

Grand Army Farm is a family owned working farm. We raise beautiful angora goats for fiber and have chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys and meat goats. We serve local restaurants and participate in many local area farmers market. 
We pride ourselves in minimizing our carbon footprint, to the extent that we don't own any heavy piece of farm equipment, not even an ATV. The working portion of the game only accounts for 15 % of the land. 
What this means is that 85% of the wooded acres is available for you HipCampers to hike and explore.
Of particular interest is the site of an old moonshine distillery hidden in the woods, a 20 min hike east of your campsite. Legends has it that the moonshine was illicitly  produced during Prohibition and sold in the loft of our biggest barn where people would drink and dance the night away. 
The property boats of gorgeous mature oak trees, hickory trees and newer cedar stands where nature abounds. In the morning you may see the herons fly in or the Canadian geese come in.Learn more about this land:Pitch your own tent by our 5 acres lake.

You will be a 10 min walk from our house and have complete privacy.&nbsp; If you would like to make a fire, there is plenty of wood available to pick up on site. &nbsp;A map on the patio fridge will show you where water is available and the hiking trail head.
