Wonderful + Cozy Bday Weekday
My mom, cousin, aunt, friend, dog, and I piled in for a delightful weekend of yummy food, sitting by the river, and sitting on the porch. The directions were super helpful and the cabin was very well equipped. My dog was so so happy to be a country pooch for a weekend, roaming all over and chasing sticks and fish in the river. Be advised that the walk down to the river is no joke (more accurately, the walk back UP is no joke), but our small 4WD SUVs did just fine on the mostly dry gravel. Bring serious tick prevention, it is the woods after all. I would definitely stay here again!

Cozy, perfect weekend away
Booked this cabin for a getaway weekend with my boyfriend. This cabin was perfect. Fireplace in the living room to sit in front of, a great view from the deck to sit and drink coffee overlooking the river. Close to good hiking. Would definitely come back :)

Wonderful Stay!
Emily was a wonderful hostess as she made sure we had everything we needed before and after we arrived. Her property is in an ideal location with short drives to Meramec Springs, Cuba, Steelville, etc. And the views from the back of her place during the sunset are breathtaking. We would certainly like to come back to visit!

Perfect private getaway
Emily’s place was very clean and updated. It was easy to locate. The views and fire pit were amazing! The hike to the river is a bit farther than I thought and steep but it was extremely secluded and the water areas were great for swimming. The porches made it great to hang out outside even in the rain or the heat. We really enjoyed our stay! The cabin had everything we needed and more.

Best weekend gettaway!!!
This place was absolutely perfect for us! We love floating but also love peace and quiet. The cabin was clean, beds amazingly comfortable, gorgeous scenery and floating options down the road. The host had fast communication with thorough instructions. Thank you for sharing your place with us. It was a wonderful weekend. Will definitely be staying here again!

Cozy and scenic
Quiet, clean, and very comfortable. Of Course there’s no Wi-Fi. However, there are plenty of videos to choose from and our AT&T service was adequate enough to stay in communication. It is recommended that you have four-wheel-drive for the short drive to the river. Once at the river, it’s beautiful and the fishing is decent. I’m sure we’ll visit again

Great stay
Property was very clean, host was wonderful, and the location was perfect. We greatly enjoyed the deck overlooking the valley, and having coffee out there each morning to the sounds of wild Turkey, squirrel, hawks and more. Would definitely stay again.
