We absolutely loved the property. Particularly because it was the end of a road so there was no traffic. The only disappointing thing was that the hot tub was a whirlpool hot tub inside the cabin instead of outside. Other than that! It was perfect!

My wife and I had a great stay in this cabin. We had a bit snafu when we arrived as we arrived just after the BOC had closed. We have never done anything like this in the past so we didn't know we needed specific email instructions (which vrbo never sent) and our reservations only said to arrive anytime after 4 to check-in. We assumed (wrong on our part) that we could arrive anytime and not have issues. With having no cell service it's not like we could call someone. A very sweet couple a few doors down were out and did help us out with their wifi so that we could contact vrbo and figure out how to get our key and directions to the cabin. Once we got through this hiccup (about 45 minutes later), our stay was great. The cabin was clean, cozy and the perfect getaway for our quick trip.

Such a beautiful quiet spot for my husband and I to have a weekend away. Friendly front desk staff and their store had convenient snacks, drinks, and movie rentals that might it an easy R&R spot. We didn’t realize it’s a dry county, so passing that along for those that want to enjoy a beverage, will want to plan ahead for that :) It was perfect and we will be back!

Nice private cabin
Have stayed in this cabin twice now. Close to buffalo River and nice hiking spots. Bathroom is really nice. Bed is comfy.Allows puppers which is a necessity for us. My only complaint is the check out time is 10am. Whish it was later.

Great cabin!
The property was as described in convenient location near the river access. We only got to visit the river once as my husband got very sick and we had to check out early. Wished we could’ve stayed longer and enjoyed it. My husband ended up with pneumonia. There is a great market for food, sandwiches and ice cream. Hopefully we can come back soon and do a redo.

Excellent getaway!
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay! The cabin was perfect for the 2 of us and the bottle of Champagne in the refrigerator was just the right added touch. We hope to stay there again soon!!!

Christmas getaway
This cabin was an excellent place for a warm, cozy, quiet Christmas getaway. I can't think of anything that was missing. It seems the owners thought of everything. The Christmas tree was a nice touch that was greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.
