Summary: I just can’t imagine anything better. What an awesome, private spot. The host is amazing and close by but respects your privacy. Communications are great. Then there is the property. Over 30 acres in the Ozarks to wander and enjoy. The cabin isn’t a cabin, it’s a beautiful home. We especially loved how parts of the wood and stone from the 1800s was incorporated. It clearly was done with great attention to detail. Highly recommended and I intend to use it again.
