One final post from us!
Today as America turns 250 the Old School building turns 150.

This iconic building was built in 1876 and has remained a steadfast bulwark of strength and resilience over the years as she has watched over the community of Chamois. She has a rich history of public service.

📍Chamois Public School 1876 - 1942
📍WWII enlistment functions and meals served
📍American Legion Post 506 1947
📍Classrooms for Morrison Public School after fire in 1950.
📍Temporary housing for volunteers and FEMA during flood 1993
📍Placed on National Historic Register 2003
📍Restored to Bed & Breakfast (Old School on the Hill B&B) 2005 - 2025
📍Private residence 2026

As we celebrate our Nation’s birth, also celebrate the heritage of our community.

Much love to all!

If it weren’t for mis-adventures we have no adventures at all! 😜

Our last contract fell through due to health issues from our previous buyer. We were sad this didn’t pan out because we felt it would have been a perfect fit. However…

Denise got busy immediately and showings continued. She found a buyer who has now purchased the property for his personal residence. He will reside here in Chamois and he also likes to travel and looks forward to hosting family in for a visit.

Today June 9, 2026 is the end of a decade of us running the Old School on the Hill B&B. It has been a fun ride!

Since it will not continue as a business we will close down this page shortly. We have a ton of memories of the best guests ever! I’ve recently been thinking of all the guests and adventures hosting that we’ve had. Do I dare write a book?

I know our Chamois community will welcome our newest resident!

Thank you Denise for representing our community, our iconic old school and being one of the best in the business.

We’ve actually been starting to feel the full effect of retirement now. It’s a good place to be. Love you all! ♥️

Have a blessed Memorial Day from the Old School and the old Post 506 in Chamois.

Y’all want another update? It’s a good one.

Our last contract fell through no fault of our own. But that has been a blessing in disguise as we have buyer who will continue the B&B and under the same name! We could not be happier!

So our new closing will be later this month and we will pass along more news and this page to the new owner.

Here is a long awaited update to the Old School on the Hill B&B.

We have had the property listed for a year + and our agent, Denise Nolte with Mossy Oak Properties had been diligent working with us for the sale. This last round we apparently found a price point that sparked a lot of interest and had multiple showings.

We found it interesting that most buyers wanted it to live in, and not for a business. That struck us as odd as there is not really a residence on site but it is possible.

We have a contract on the property and we have a closing date of April 6, 2026. This has happened very quickly on top of another move we made recently in Washington, MO. So we’ve had a lot going on for the first months of the year.

In light of this contract, the new owners plan to live there and have indicated they will have a business but we have no idea what their plans will be. I met the other day with Chamois Historic Preservation and donated a lot of information, photos and historical records to them. I wanted to ensure that these items are properly preserved for our community. I had a great time with Susan, Sherry and Cheryl looking at all of the history surrounding Chamois. Over the past decade I was an ambassador of our town to many visitors who graced our doors. It has been a joy to share the stories and treasures of Chamois with so many.

We averaged between 80 - 100 stays a year the most being just under 200 in one year. We believe that’s been pretty awesome.

The Schaperclaus’ ran it for a decade and we have run it for a decade. She’s had an amazing history as the Chamois Public School, Legion Hall 506, and Old School on the Hill B&B This year, this iconic building is 150 years old on the anniversary of our nation’s 250th birthday.

Even though it has become harder for us to maintain as we have aged, we have dearly loved this place, its history and every guest that has graced her doors. It has truly been an experience of a lifetime.

We close on the property on 4/6/26 and turn over the keys and history to new owners. I hope you will welcome them to the community as graciously as you have us.

We still have our home here in Chamois as well as our home in Washington, making us dual citizens of Franklin and Osage counties. So we will still be around.

Thank you for supporting us. Helping us and letting us share yours & our unique heritage with so many.

I’m not sure what we will do with this page, but it will stay up for a bit.

Love you all!
