About The Public School House

The Public School House is a restored one-room schoolhouse in Cottleville, Missouri, built in 1875 and used as a school until the 1950s. It sits on a secluded 1.13-acre property and hosts indoor and outdoor private events, including weddings, rehearsal dinners, holiday parties, corporate events, showers and birthday parties. The indoor spaces are the School House Room, with an exposed wood vaulted ceiling, a wraparound bar and wood-framed windows, and the Four Season Room, which can be open-air or temperature-controlled. Outdoor areas include a front patio, a back patio with a brick-and-stone fireplace, a large lawn, and a wooden arbor beside a garden and waterfall. Inside, the venue seats 90 for a seated meal, and cocktail-style events can host 150 to 200 guests; a rented tent may be required for larger parties. Ceremonies can take place at the outdoor arbor or fireplace, or indoors in the Four Season Room. Events can be customized with food, beverage and entertainment packages, and outside caterers and outside liquor are not permitted.
