Lonedell offers a peaceful, wooded setting along Route 30 with quick connections to everyday conveniences and outdoor escapes. Tucked in the rolling hills of Franklin County, it places you within easy drives of small-town amenities in St. Clair, retail and dining in Pacific, county services in Union, and medical specialists in Washington.
Weekends here tend to revolve around the river and the trails. Campsites, boat ramps, and shady picnic groves await at Robertsville State Park, a Meramec River favorite with miles of hiking and fishing spots for every skill level. Nature lovers also gravitate to the curated prairies, woodlands, and educational programs at Shaw Nature Reserve, while a short, scenic drive opens up the caves, bluffs, and float trips of Meramec State Park. For families, the St. Clair Branch of the Scenic Regional Library offers classes, story times, and maker activities year-round.
Education is anchored by Lonedell R-14 School District’s close-knit K–8 campus, with high school choices commonly including Union R‑XI and Meramec Valley R‑III, depending on program fit and commute. Everyday needs are covered nearby, and larger care is close at Mercy Hospital Washington.
