Historic Kage School Guest Cottage
Cape Girardeau, MO
2 Bedrooms 1.5 baths | Extended Stay Only | 3110 Kage Road, Cape Girardeau, MO, 63701
Visiting Cape Girardeau and looking for a special place or a location for a romantic getaway? Step back in time and stay in the recently renovated Historic Kage School Guest Cottage. Established in 1854 and operated as a public school until 1966. Established in 1854, the Historic Kage School was rebuilt in its current structure and location in 1880. The one-room school house constructed in the German Vernacular architectural style served families and students in the Cape Girardeau area until 1966, when the school board voted to close the school and transfer students to other established public schools. In the spring of 2014, R. Hetzel Properties LLC purchased the property from the Keith Deimund Family and began the process of restoring the old, one-room school building into what is now the Historic Kage School Guest Cottage.
Although repurposed as a guest cottage, The Historic Kage School retains the charm of the original school building with 13-foot ceilings, the original school lights, and original Missouri Ozark pine hardwood floors, as well as many other artifacts recovered from the building during restoration. The initials and dates of many Kage School students can still be seen scratched into the soft brick on the exterior of the building. The small stone wall comprising the border at the front of the building is constructed of the stone footings originally used in the 1880 construction of the school.
Boasting 2 huge bedrooms (both queen beds) and 1.5 baths, this unique and historic one-room school house is richly furnished with art-deco style furnishings and modern appliances. Amenities include a fully-equipped kitchen, washer & dryer, high-speed internet, and 50" flat-screen TV.
