Lake St. Louis, Missouri

Lake Saint Louis is an idyllic suburb in St. Charles County, Missouri. The lake and surrounding community were built in 1966 for private recreation. In 1975 Lake Saint Louis incorporated and currently features two lakes, two nine-hole golf courses, tennis courts, swimming pools, riding stables and parks. The city has three shopping centers and is home to the National Equestrian Center. 

Only 10 miles away is Historic Downtown St. Charles, a popular tourist attraction that hosts festivals that draw thousands of visitors each year. Fantastic schools, low taxes, and affordable housing are just a few of the reasons St. Charles County is growing so quickly and attracting so many.

A little further down the highway is Lambert Airport, and then downtown St. Louis, MO with its major league sports, iconic Arch, and amenities too numerous to name.
