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.

Other things to note

While this space provides most utilities and amenities you'd find at your home, it is important to note it is still a camping-style getaway. We do our best to treat the area, but you will encounter insects.

AT&T has limited cell phone reception in the area, Sprint is very spotty, and Verizon is pretty much unavailable for service. We provide the best free wifi available to help with communication back to the real world, but it is rather slow. The best wifi reception is near the General Store/Courtyard. 

We try and keep the area well maintained. You may see ATVs/tractors on our property and on the gravel road.

Pets are welcome for an extra $50 per stay. Please note our dogs may be on the property. They are friendly and well-behaved, although sometimes curious. Other guests may have no-leash pets as well.

Park right next to your glamper. Arrive anytime after 4pm, just give us an eta to know when to expect you. If your glamper is not ready upon your arrival, feel free to explore our farm, visit Dillard Mill or head down to the Huzzah while we make it ready for your stay. Self Check-In is always the norm for added privacy. We won't bother you except to wave or maybe say hello if you're out and about. Please feel free to approach us with questions, niceties, or needs.
