Audubon’s Hotel One of Missouri’s Longest Running Hotels At 9 North Main Street in downtown Ste. Genevieve, Audubon’s blends boutique hotel charm with restaurant excellence in a building that has anchored the town’s social scene since 1901. First opened as the City Hotel in 1904, this 120-year-old structure underwent complete renovation in 2018, transforming into seven contemporary luxury rooms, each with private bathroom. Current owners Brock and Megan Gibson—who also own Dannie’s Sports Tavern and The Beacon—purchased the establishment in fall 2024 from the Fallerts and Fergusons, inheriting what Brock calls “an absolute gem” and “a very important place in this town.” With a first-floor restaurant serving scratch-made French, Cajun, German, and Italian cuisine, a beer garden across the street, and an untapped basement cellar, Audubon’s delivers what one longtime visitor describes as “the best hotel in town…the location can’t be beat. All the important historic attractions and restaurants are within walking distance. A person can park, check in, and never get in your car again.” Palace Bar to Boutique Hotel: 120 Years of Downtown Vitality The property’s story begins in 1901 when Charles Petrequin purchased it for just over $2,000. By 1903, it housed the historically famous Palace Bar—a Read more…

Genevieve County’s wine country and directly across from Chateau Ste. Genevieve winery, Baetje Farms has created something genuinely unique: five luxury tiny homes where guests sleep steps away from the white Saanen goats whose milk becomes award-winning French-inspired artisan cheese—Bloomsdale (the flagship Super Gold World Cheese Awards winner inspired by Valencay), Miette (“small, sweet thing,” their most awarded honeymoon-perfect cheese), Coeur de la Crème (heart-shaped chèvre in multiple flavors), Vallée, and Amoureux—each tiny home named after a different Baetje cheese and designed with white planked oak floors, shiplap walls, white marble tiled bathrooms, floor-to-ceiling windows with flowing curtains, and French country chic décor honoring Ste. Genevieve County’s deep Francophone heritage.
