Amazing view. Cool neighboorhood and an awesome older house. I still dont know who the owner and host are. Ive talked with 3 different people that said the were one or the other. The last guy I talked to was very nice and accommodating. His phone # was the one listed inside the cabin.

Comfortable and cozy

Very clean and good quiet location. Comfortable beds, blackout curtains, plenty of towels, elevator, and ice maker are all positives. Only one thing to add to the kitchen sugar and sugar substitutes for coffee.

Great getaway

Property is as advertised. Very clean with all the basic amenities. Parking isn’t the best but it is described in the listing. We drove two full- sized trucks and it seemed pretty cramped on the street, however, all the traffic we saw was slow and careful. The view is great. I imagine the summer and fall months offer the best views.

It was fantastic. If you have 2 couples and 2-4 kids, it’s a great stay. Private areas for adults and plenty of play room for kids. Great location for Branson. Away from the main strip but easily accessible for trips in to shows or parks.

This place was amazing!

Carol and Don have done a phenomenal job on renovating this house and turning it to a rental property. The views are absolutely amazing! We needed some extra blankets and sheets and they were delivered immediately! I would highly recommend staying at any of their properties.

Great property

We enjoyed the house. We travelled with 4 adults, (2 seniors) one child. The outside stairs are a bit difficult but it was clear there would be stairs. The house was clean, nice appliances, etc. the host was very responsive to the few questions we had. Close to Branson attractions. House is up in the hills with narrow roads. Would book again.

We loved the property; especially the July 5th fireworks show off the back balcony! Amazing view. Negatives were slow wi-fi; master mattress unsupporting. Other than that, no complaints and would go back! Thank you!

Perfect Cottage!

Our family of 5 (2 parents, 3 college-aged kids) stayed here for 7 nights and we loved it! From the cozy furnishings to the amazing views from the deck, it was a highlight of our time in the Branson area. We loved the neighborhood; it was so quiet and peaceful. And, it was still close enough to all the main attractions that we could get to any place within 10-15 minutes. The host was accommodating and welcoming. I had a few questions before we arrived and they were answered promptly and were very helpful. The host checked in a couple of times during our stay - I appreciated that as well. I would highly recommend this property to anyone who likes a peaceful, quiet place to retreat to after spending a day in the hustle & bustle of Branson.
