Cottage located in the Heart of the Ozark Mountains close to floating and hiking

This lovely spacious cottage is located between Harrison and Jasper near the Ozark National Forest.
Swimming and floating are a short distance away at the Buffalo National River along with numerous hiking trails in the area to explore.
The cottage is spacious and has a large covered patio and an adjacent firepit to lounge around and enjoy the sunset over Gaither mountain. Located in a fantastic area for motorcyclists and has excellent dark skies for the star gazers!
The location is country but has local restaurants nearby and a short distance to the services of Harrison.
The excitement of Branson MO is 45 minutes away, making it an easy day trip as well.

We were in town for the State Softball tournament. We wanted a place that was close but also quiet. This was the best of both worlds. When we are back this way we will definitely be staying again. Billie was wonderful!!!! Thanks again for the stay!

Great place

Location was wonderful. Just far enough outside the city to be quiet and safe for children to run around, but close enough to be in the city in a few minutes. Good communication from host made finding the place much easier than Google Maps tried to make it.

Fantastic property, fantastic host

Billie was very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed to make our stay great. My buddies and i were on a motorcycle trip and with the threat of severe storms, she was nice enough to allow us to park under the covered front patio. The cottage was clean, and had everything we could need. Billie even gave us a charcuterie board! I'd give 10 stars if I could.

We would stay here again!

Location was 45 +/- minutes from Branson. It was easy to get to eventhough it was a bit of a hike. Since it is pet friendly we had pet hair on our clothes/ belongings. However, this did not subtract from the overrall cleanliness. We would stay here again!
