Find plenty of history and family fun in Missouri's Northwest Region. Begin your journey in Kansas City, the western anchor to Missouri River country. From city skyline to rural charm, there's plenty waiting for you in the Kansas City area, an all-American city with a distinctly European flavor. Kansas City complements its heartland appeal with the dazzling fountains of Rome, bold architecture of Spain and the wide boulevards of Paris. Begin your visit at the colorful City Market area of the restored downtown riverfront district where the Arabia Steamboat Museum displays thousands of artifacts salvaged from a steamboat that sunk near the city in 1856. If you want great shopping, dining and nightlife on your vacation, look to the Country Club Plaza. A Missouri Vacation Rental is a great alternative to a hotel or motel. The plaza was America's first shopping center with fountains and Moorish architecture. Head north to the historic Westport district for great live blues, jazz and R&B. Be sure to visit the 18th and Vine Historic District, with the American Jazz Museum and Negro Leagues Baseball Museum. Don't forget to sample some of Kansas City's famous barbecue.

Begin your visit to this Missouri Vacation Rental region in St. Louis, where your first glimpse of the 630-foot Gateway Arch is a reminder of the historic role St. Louis played in the westward expansion of America. Ride the tram to the top of the Arch and watch the powerful Mississippi River flow by. Behold the energetic city below. Visit the museum under the Arch and the nearby Old Cathedral, the oldest church in St. Louis. Just across the street is the Old Courthouse, the site of the Dred Scott trial. Cheer for the hometown favorites at a Cardinals baseball game, then visit the International Bowling Hall of Fame across from the stadium. After the game, head to Tony's for great Italian cuisine. If you prefer French, try the nearby Cafe de France. Not far away, the shopping is spectacular at St. Louis Centre or the completely restored Union Station. In Forest Park, visit the Saint Louis Art Museum, the Zoo, the Muny Opera and the Science Center, with its life-size animated dinosaurs and an OMNIMAX Theater. Nearby is the historic Cathedral Basilica of Saint Louis, which houses the world's largest collection of mosaic art.

Missouri's Central Region boasts premier lake and resort destinations, wineries, beautiful hiking and biking trails and the state capital, just for starters. The Lake of the Ozarks offers 1,150 miles of shoreline winding through scenic Ozark hills. Besides swimming, boating, water-skiing and fishing, visitors can explore area caves, choose from numerous golf courses and enjoy country-music shows. Malls, factory outlets and specialty stores make this area a year-round destination for shoppers.

America's new live-entertainment capital, crystal-blue lakes surrounded by forested hills, and attractions based on colorful native lifestyles are just part of what's in Missouri's Southwestern Region. Near the region's center is Branson, offering nonstop family fun highlighted by more than 90 music and variety shows. Recent years have brought many new names, representing musical styles that range from traditional country and pop "classics" to today's sounds. At Shepherd of the Hills Homestead and Outdoor Theatre, you can take a tram tour of this literary historic site, and then watch the fast-paced drama recreating the tale of life on the Ozarks frontier. Tucked away in these open lands are many Missouri Vacation Rentals to choose from.

This region seems to have been created especially for those adventurers whose idea of life at its best is exploring, paddling, trekking, climbing and splashing through the natural wonders of the world around them. Bubbling springs, sparkling rivers and forested hills accentuate Missouri's Southeast Region. Miles of canoeing rivers, including the Jack's Fork and Current, part of America's first national scenic river ways, take paddlers through the picturesque woods and bluffs. Gently rolling countryside dips into valleys, where creeks wind through fertile farmland. River towns and quaint country villages charm guests with their turn-of-the-century architecture, antique shops and historical sites. Begin a Meramec River float at Ononodaga Cave State Park in Leasburg or you can put in your canoe at Steelville or Bourbon with any number of outfitters that serve the area. In Poplar Bluff, two historical museums and the Margaret Harwell Art Museum are among the town's attractions. Just north is 8,400-acre Wappapello Lake, best known for its winter and spring crappie fishing. Mark Twain National Forest, also on the lake, makes up a significant part of the region. Wildflowers nod in the breeze and the scent of cedar fills the air as riders and hikers enjoy miles of trails.
