Dr. Hertich House Built in 1850 as both residence and medical clinic for Dr. Charles Hertich, one of Ste. Genevieve’s first full-time physicians, this French Chateau-style building with distinctive mansard roof now serves as a heritage hotel blending historic elegance with modern luxury. Located at 99 North Main Street in the heart of downtown, Dr. Hertich House offers four three-room suites with king beds, gas fireplaces, and two-person jacuzzi tubs—plus Der Bierkeller, a unique basement apartment nestled within original 1801 stone foundation walls. Under new ownership by Dr. Sandra Hoffmann (herself a practicing physician at Ste. Genevieve County Memorial Hospital), the property continues the medical legacy while delivering what guests call “the ultimate in comfort.” As one anniversary couple raved: “My wife and I stayed in the Memories Suite and it was perfect. Extremely comfortable king bed, easy-to-use gas fireplace at the foot of the bed, and an awesome two-person jetted tub with complimentary bath salts. We had the stuffed french toast delivered to our suite the following morning—5 star service!” 1850 French Chateau Meets Heritage Hotel Dr. Charles Hertich purchased the property in 1850 for $1,800, when only the northern portion existed. The southern section came later. For decades, Read more…

Aunt Katie’s Corner – Where 1930s Glory, Rose Du Barry Glamour, and Old World Charm Create Downtown’s Most Distinctive Period Bungalow Experience Most vacation rentals offer generic comfort in spaces that could be anywhere—interchangeable bedrooms, utilitarian bathrooms, kitchens designed for efficiency rather than character. Aunt Katie’s Corner rejects this entirely. This meticulously restored 1930s bungalow, located in historic downtown Sainte Geneviève just a block off the main drag, doesn’t just reference its period through superficial vintage touches or antique accent pieces. This is comprehensive restoration to former glory—authentic 1930s atmosphere created through period-appropriate furnishings, old world charm preserved in architectural details, and the kind of attention to era-specific design that makes guests actually gasp when they see the Rose Du Barry bathroom or the vintage operational kitchen that isn’t just decorative but genuinely functional for preparing meals using equipment and aesthetics from nearly a century ago. With two bedrooms and two bathrooms, Aunt Katie’s Corner accommodates small families, couples traveling together, or anyone wanting space to spread out during multi-day Sainte Geneviève explorations. But the real appeal isn’t square footage or bedroom count—it’s the immersive experience of inhabiting lovingly restored space that transports you to specific historical moment when Art Read more…
