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.
With life moving at lightning speed and jam-packed schedules, we don’t always have time for a weekend getaway in Missouri, no matter how much we need it. How about an overnight instead? Escape to the quiet of nature on a picturesque hiking trail in Hillsboro before checking into a charmingly rustic B&B in Bonne Terre for the perfect Missouri getaway.
As you explore Valley View Glades Natural Area in Hillsboro, you’ll quickly discover a visit is an absolute must in each season.
Spanning a cozy 225 acres, the Missouri natural area features a single hiking trail that offers spectacular views of dolomite glades, Missouri evening primrose, and local wildlife, including deer.
Be prepared for a moderately challenging journey along the 2.8-mile trail that has some inclines and can get quite muddy (and icy during the winter). You’ll need a sturdy pair of hiking shoes for your trek on this dog-friendly Missouri trail.
The trail is also quite rocky, so keep an eye out for loose rocks and tree roots jutting out of the ground.
If you’re up for the challenge, you’ll be rewarded with Mother Nature’s most beautiful creations – small waterfalls, shimmering creeks, beautiful flowers, and scores of mushrooms.
After a trek through this natural area in Missouri, set the GPS to take you to Bonne Terre, around 27 miles away. Enjoy the scenery roll by as you make your way to your home away from home for the evening.
Oozing rustic charm, Turkey Holler Bed & Breakfast comfortably sleeps up to three guests in its single bedroom with one bathroom. The guesthouse features all of the amenities – WiFi, a fireplace, and a mini kitchen – needed for a relaxing getaway.
Explore the property on one of the scenic walking trails; roast marshmallows for s’mores over a roaring fire, and do a bit of stargazing at the end of the night.
