The Lodge Des Peres

"Just signed on to a membership for the whole family. Place is very nice and front desk has been very friendly and easy to talk to. Indoor pool is very nice and honestly one of the cleanest I have been to. Wave pool too, so bonus there. Great separate splash/water area for toddlers, my youngest (he's a little over 1) loves it. Hot tub is down for repairs, wife and I have been told its down until between late January through early March, depending on staff members you talk to there. Regardless of when it will actually be back up and running... hopefully its back up soon. That was kind of a bummer. There are sauna and steam rooms. I was surprised to see children playing in the steam room. Good-sized full court gym. There were several people there playing basketball, multiple courts. The workout room has modern equipment. Nice indoor track so you can get your laps in regardless of weather conditions. Indoor and outdoor concessions areas for basic snacks and drinks. Outdoor pool looks amazing, although I think the outdoor pool only gets to about 3'6" at max depth. So if you want to cannonball or do some diving, it will need to be on the indoor pool. That being said, the outdoor pool has a massive slide, a lazy river. Very nice indoor and outdoor pool facilities, I can't express this enough. My only gripe is the pool schedule. Open swim currently is Friday-Sunday afternoons into early-ish evenings. Honestly, I wasn't aware of this until after we paid our membership fees (which for a family our size is pretty spendy $$). So in the off-season, if you want to take your kids swimming indoors, plan on Friday through Sunday, Monday through Thursday is off limits unless its a holiday. All in all, place is very nice and for facilities this nice, I can deal with the pool schedule. Looking forward to hitting my New Years goals by using the gym and my kids enjoying the pool. Hopefully the hot tub is fixed soon (wink wink, nudge nudge) :) 4 out of 5 stars. -Josh"

"I was there for a family reunion. It is a very nice place and the room is large enough for a party."

"0/10 for those with disabilities. Staff & management are incredibly rude. Rather than welcoming disabled people, they snub their noses and act like they’re a burden to even have on the premises, even if they’re not causing any problems."

"Beautiful facility. We were here for a dinner and entertainment related to our Gateway Koi and Pond Club/North Midwest ZNA annual Koi Show for St. Louis in Ellisville at Timberwinds Nursery this weekend."

"This place is quite cheap for what u get (10$ non resident ) I only went to the pool so I wont be talking about the gym and other stuff but the pool has 3 slides, wavepool, lazy river and some other stuff. The hot tub is 16 and older so quite strict there but no problem. Quite a fun place"
