Boonslick Guest House in New Franklin

Wanted to put a positive comment out here for the Boonslick Guest House in New Franklin. I stayed there the evening of 9/23/24. It does indeed exist, and it is very easy to get to from the trailhead. The map on bikekatytrail is accurate. The host was very welcoming.
I arrived late Monday evening after riding from KC on a rainy/cloudy day, so my review may be of a very tired rider :)
The home is comfortable, the kitchen had a decent array of options for a light breakfast and had the makings for grilled cheese sandwiches in the fridge. There is a 2-bike rack on the back porch to provide covered storage. The queen bed was comfortable, and the neighborhood was quiet. I would have no issues with staying here again.
Two thumbs-up!

Questioning from Overland Park, KS on 10/12/2023 02:55 PM:
This is confusing. Are there two Boonslick Guest Houses--one in New Franklin and one in Boonville? The visitors bureau has a link for a website for the one in Boonville, which is purportedly on the upper level of a business building downtown, but the link does not work. That's a red flag. Anyone know the truth?

I'm sorry for the confusion - we now have the correct address for this listing. New Franklin is correct.
There was a Boonslick Guest House in Boonville at some point in the past, but to my knowledge it's no longer open. I'm guessing we got our wires crossed when the New Franklin location came along with almost the same name.
Great find near trail-wrong address on site

Found a gem of a place to stay in New Franklin right off the trail. This Website shows a Booneville address, but when you click the link it show the correct address in New Franklin. Just blocks from the trailhead. Super cute home with lots of space. It is 3 miles outside of Booneville. I recommend eating in Booneville and then riding on. It takes 3 miles off your ride the next day! Very affordable and SUPER kind host. No wifi—but it was great to unwind and unplug… cut 3 miles off our long day to Jefferson City AND be so close to the trail!

ENORMOUS SPACE that is beautifully well kept for a super reasonable price. Fridge had a few beers in it ready for consumption a pon arrival, and host is super nice and answers texts/calls promptly.
Also, it is perfect for KATY TRAIL riders, particularly a large groups, for 3 reasons: (1)it is literally right off the trail, (2) it's right in downtown in Boonville so you can easily walk to everything (very good after a long ride), and (3) plenty of private spaces in the apartment. This place can easily hold 6-8 people.
There are two bedrooms with large (queen size beds i think?) at separate ends, so those people can have a completely private space, and another room has 3 beds that one bedroom squatter would have to walk through to get to common areas (kitchen, bath). Also There are two couches and a pull out bed, so really the space can probably hold 9-10 as long as the majority of folks aren't too picky about having a space that folks would need to walk through to get to other ares.

Stayed here on 10/22/21. Back porch for the bikes, easy walk to several restaurants, washer and dryer, kitchen, TV, and close to a neighborhood with neat historic homes. Nice place!

This is a great stop for riders who are not supported. Full kitchen set up, parlor with games and books. Can do laundry too!

We also stayed there and loved it. Very convenient to the trail. A couple of restaurants close by. Owner stocks a number of food items for guests.

Stayed at the Boonslick Guest House after Day 2 on the trail. A step back in time, this amazing second floor home over a first floor business was comfy, heartwarming and spacious, with a room in back for bike storage. Enjoyed Greek food at The Palace just two doors down and the fridge/pantry were well stocked for breakfast. Outstanding price and close to the trail, we highly recommend.
