Yes
If we go paddle boating, do we have to make a reservation? Expand
There’s either a paddle boat, kayaks, or a canoe (not a pontoon boat) at our lakefront chalets for your exclusive use. There are no boat rentals available at Innsbrook. Even our properties that aren’t on water have kayaks stored at a public beach in Innsbrook for your use.
Are there fishing poles at the chalet? Can we rent them? Expand
The fishing poles and supplies that are at the chalets have been left behind by other renters; we don’t supply these, but you are welcome to use what you find. We suggest picking some up at Wal-Mart if you plan to fish since we don’t provide them. You can pick up bait at the liquor store in Wright City.

No license needed.

Innsbrook requires dogs to be on a leash. At our private lakes, dogs are allowed in the water.

No mayo, ketchup, mustard, etc. But we do stock spices, sugar, coffee, tea, etc. We’ve found that our guests don’t like to use others’ ketchup.
Where is the closest grocery store? Expand
We recommend bringing all your groceries with you for your convenience. It’s about a 20-minute drive back to a store. If you stop in Wentzville (Exit 208 or 209) on your way from St. Louis, there is a Schnuck’s and a Dierberg’s there. If you’re coming from the west (Columbia), you can exit at 194 for Wal-Mart Supercenter or Kroger. There is also a small convenience store at Innsbrook called the Country Market, near the Main Gate, but it is closed in the winter months.
