October, 2005 was our opening month and we were booked solid on weekends. 

 

However, our guests were speechless.

 

We welcome your comments in our Guest Book.

 

We are grateful that the accommodations and ambiance of Hermann Bluff Guest House have exceeded our guests' expectations.

 

Like our guests, we also love the most picturesque town in Missouri too!

We weren’t here one half hour and we said we would have to come back again!

 

The house & scenery is fantastic.

 

The attention to the interior details is wonderful.

 

Where is that train we call the “No Where Express”?

 

The deck and the hot tub were another added plus.

 

We ate at Europa three nights.  Why go anywhere else when you can have the best?  Do not miss this restaurant!

 

We are taking back cases of wine and will think of Hermann Bluff Guest House as we open each bottle.

 

Thank you so much.

The expectations of our visit were greatly exceeded upon our arrival!!!  Our weekend get-away was so enjoyable and relaxing.

 

We spend the evenings soaking our cares away in the hot tub and enjoyed the deck well into late evening.  What A VIEW!!!  Living close to a large city, we seldom see so many stars.

 

To sum it all up . . .

 

Elegance, Beauty, Ambiance, Serenity.

 

. . . makes up the special moments we shared during our stay.

 

A sweet eternal memory that we will always cherish.

We had a great time visiting Hermann and really enjoyed staying at the cozy Hermann Bluff.

 

Love the decor ¾ wood floors and of course, the magnificent view from the deck!  We didn't get to enjoy the hot tub as hot weather kept us in the AC or in the stores most of the time.

 

We would love to come back some time.  The special touches for our anniversary were nice too!

 

Thanks for everything!

We were excited for our trip, but we were really excited when we saw the Hermann Bluff Guest House!  We are still in shock and don't want to leave.  The views from here are awesome!!  We very much enjoyed the house and the hot tub!

 

Hermann is wonderful!  We went to a few wineries: Hermannhoff, Adam Puchta, and Stone Hill ¾  we're going home with plenty of wine.

 

We're off to Mountain Grove to pick up Christina & Jason's new pug puppy, named Pudge!

Thank you so much for everything!

 

We'll be back.

This was our second time staying here ¾ forgot to sign the guest book last time!

 

Of course, we thoroughly enjoyed it  ¾ we came back and brought friends!

 

Another ice storm weekend!  But it was beautiful outside  ¾ with trees covered with ice.  Fog on the river.  Some of us enjoyed the hot tub, but I was too cold to try!  Hope to come back when it is warmer  ¾ use the grill and the deck!!

What can we say . . .  Hermann Bluff Guest House is a little slice of Heaven on earth.  We enjoyed our 5th anniversary here & didn't want to leave!  Went into town, but didn't stay long, we had to get back to the beautiful view.

 

Europa was amazing!  Every bite was pure pleasure!

 

We are looking forward to coming back soon.

 

Thank you so much.

The four of us had been trying to decide on a quick vacation getaway destination all summer.  We finally decided to try Hermann, MO.  This was the best decision we have made in a long time!

 

Some highlights:

  • Hermann Bluff Guest House- Fabulous!  From dinner on the deck to evenings in the hot tub - pure relaxation with a spectacular view.

  • Following the Wine Trail- beautiful views, great conversation and fine wines.

  • Antique/gift shops- loved the work of local artists and took home some pieces.

  • Dinner at Europa- do not miss this!  Fantastic food, great atmosphere.  We even got a full tour at the end of the night.

We are already making plans to come back.

We stayed here to celebrate our 6th wedding anniversary.  The view of the river in the morning covered by fog is amazing.  Sitting in the hot tub under the stars was the best part of the stay.  Trapper's desserts are top notch.  We will definitely recommend Hermann Bluff Guest House to our family and friends.

We came from Fairway & Overland Park, Kansas - four long-time friends ready for a beautiful fall weekend.  This house was only the first of many pleasant surprises - the view is breathtaking!  We spent two evenings sitting in the moonlight - one on the deck and the other in the hot tub.  Our days were filled with shopping, long lunches,

 

 and even an afternoon nap.

 

If you are looking for great food, make sure you get to Europa for dinner.  We also had a wonderful meal at The Cottage.  And for a fun day adventure plan to have lunch at River's Edge - you take a ferry to get there.

 

However, the house was the highlight - so peaceful and quiet.  Your attention to details is amazing and we loved being pampered - from the food in the frig to the Hershey's kisses and fresh flowers.

 

We'll be back . . .

My friend Susan & I had a wonderful time.  Spent 2 days by the window watching geese & ducks fly up the river - icy hills, frozen fog, light on the water, dark outlines of trees, blue birds, juncos.  The home is cozy and inviting; a place to draw aside; read, talk, listen to music.

 

We will return.

According to Wikipedia.org: 

 

Lagniappe means a small gift given a customer by a merchant at the time of a purchase, such as a 13th beignet when buying a dozen, or more broadly something given or obtained gratuitously or by way of good measure; a bonus. The word is used in Trinidad and Tobago, Louisiana, Mississippi and south-eastern Texas. It was also once in common usage by antiquarian booksellers, without regional limitation, and is still used by more old-fashioned members of that tribe.

It is derived from the American Spanish phrase la ñapa (la, "the"; ñapa a variant of yapa, "something that is added"). The term has been traced back to the Quechua word yapay (which means "to increase; to add"). In Andean markets it is still customary to ask for a "yapa" when making a purchase. The seller usually responds by throwing in a little extra.


 

Lagniappe ¾ an alternative definition ¾ the hospitality provided by Sam & Missy Frink, Hermann Bluff Guest House Keepers!
