This is located outside of town away from the crowds but still close enough to run into town for supplies. The road leading off the highway back to the cabin is gravel with some hills but no problems with a suv or 4x4 truck. Enjoyed visiting with owner at their watering hole the first night!!!

This is a great place! Scott and Lisa have done a tremendous job setting up their property and all its amenities. We enjoyed ourselves immensely. Would def return. During our stay my wife and I availed ourselves of the trail rides that Scott and Lisa offer, specifically a 4-hour ride. My wife and I are novice riders at best. The horses they provided for us were perfect for our skill level, which is zero. The trail was the most rugged we've ever done (hey, we're from the suburbs) and the horses did the trails like they were nothing. Fantastic ride. Scott was our guide and we had a great time with him.The house we stayed in had amenities that we unfortunately did not take advantage of, such as the outdoor firepit. Next time for sure!All in all, a great place!

Beautiful Ozarks

The cabin was secluded but with help not too far away since the owners live on the property up the hill. The cabin is cute as a button seemed to have just about everything you would need to stay other than food and your personal things. Look forward to coming back.

The perfect cabin

We had a great week at the cabin. From the moment we checked in, the hosts were helpful and communication was great. It was clean and had everything we needed for our week-long stay. We enjoyed the extra space to relax after a day floating on the river. The kitchen was well stocked with essentials for the many meals we prepared. Bonus points for having hookups on property for the family that joined us, in their RV. We look forward to returning for future trips!
