I was wanting in Rocheport on a Friday night and was wondering if there is any lodging other than BnB's there? I am on a budget and was hoping to find a hotel or something that woud be a little easier on the pocket book than BnB's(I am not much of a camper which would be the most economical!)

There is one non-B&B lodging shown on this site: The Midway Budget Inn (see http://www.bikekatytrail.com/site.aspx?sid=140). It's not in town, but close by. See the map & the comment thread on the page for more info.

Thanks Brian, I have a room booked. Now I just need to find a room in the Hermann, Rhineland, McKittric area.

Please note that the Midway Budget Inn is several miles from the Katy Trail, and the actual town of Rocheport, which is right on the Katy.

By several, I'm thinking like seven miles, but not sure about that one.

You might note that the Katy B&B, which is right on the trail, has rooms in the $70 range. If you just need something basic, you might find this works better for you than the motel which is a few miles away.

Although the poster has already booked a room.....Boonville is a viable alternative when wanting to stay in the Rocheport area. It's a short ride (10-12 miles) to Rocheport.

The Doll House in Rhineland is very nice and also economical as far as B&B's go. Trailside Bar and Grill is just across the road and good food.

Since we are planning this somewhat last minute, I have found that most of the places that are recommended and close to the trail are already booked up. I have found an opening at Abigails in Hermann for our Saturday nite stay. However, the owner says she has never had any bike riders stay at her place and this makes me concerned. Is Hermann easily accesible from the Katy trail and if so how far? Also has anyone stayed at Abigails?

As long as the new bridge is open as someone said, the ride into Hermann is around 1/4 mile and will be very easy. The old bridge was very dicey for someone on a bicycle.

I am surprised that Abigails has never had a biker, I believe it is only about 2 blocks into Hermann once you cross the bridge. I have not stayed there though.
