As local travel experts, we know what travelers are looking for when it comes to finding the perfect accommodations for their next trip. To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.
Life can certainly move at breakneck speed, but slowing down takes effort and can be downright difficult. Well, now, it’s a little easier for us to slow down, relax, and unwind. Book a stay with Getaway House, a unique cluster of tiny cabins for rent in nearly a dozen cities across the United States.
The tiny homes offer an ideal opportunity to unplug and recharge in a beautiful natural setting but without being too far from the excitement of the big city – in Missouri’s case, within driving distance of Kansas City and St. Louis. Are you ready for an unplugged getaway in Missouri?
Getaway House has a simple mission: To provide a comfortable place to stay “that has everything you need and nothing you don’t.” Regardless of which side of the state you live, you’ll be within driving distance of one of the two Missouri Outposts.
The Kansas City Outpost features 45 cabins on 317 acres while the St. Louis Outpost hosts 40 cabins on 198 acres.
The Ozark Highlands Outpost is tucked in Osceola, a two-hour drive from Kansas City, and home to just over 900 residents. A prime destination for hunting and fishing, Osceola also features an impressive selection of shops and restaurants.
For an outdoor adventure, drive about 40 minutes to Pomme de Terre State Park, perhaps best-known for the 2.1-mile Cedar Bluff Trail.

Just 45 minutes from the city, the St. Louis Outpost is tucked near Bloomsdale, a darling small town with just over 630 residents. Spend your free time exploring St. Louis, or go on a fascinating tour of Bonne Mine Terre, just a 30-minute drive from Getaway House.
Once you retreat to your tiny cabin, however, you might not want to leave at all; that’s just how peaceful it is at your home-away-from-home that features a queen bed or a queen bunk bed, and a private bath.
All tiny cabins measure between 140 and 200 square feet. Each features the same amenities, so no matter at what Outpost you stay, you’re guaranteed the same cozy experience.
An outdoor fire pit makes it easy to grill steaks, veggies, or s’mores. Keep your perishables in the mini fridge.
We have so many unique places to stay in Missouri, and this just might be one of the best. Have you or will you stay at the Getaway House for an unplugged escape in Missouri? Will you check into the Kansas City or the St. Louis location? Let us know in the comments! For more outdoor adventures, consider visiting one of these state parks near Kansas City, Missouri.
