The cabin was spotless. Everything was perfect and so convenient. The beds were comfortable as well as the couch and recliners. Coffee on the back deck in the early morning was so peaceful, and grilling food and time with friends around the fire in the evenings was great. The hosts were very responsive and kind, and i would definitely book again.
If you are looking for a 2 bedroom stay in this area I can promise you won’t be disappointed with Maggie May. We just stayed there 3 nights. The hosts are great and respond rapidly. Upon arrival we were greeted with local and other goodies. The cabin was spotless. It is nicely decorated, comfortably furnished and had everything we needed. The location is also convenient to lake and river activities. If we return to this area we will certainly stay in Maggie May.
Our family had a wonderful stay overall! The hostess was very accommodating and helpful. The house was great for our family and had plenty of room for our son to play.
This cabin was just what we needed for some R&R. Close to the State Park and close to local restaurant and met a few great local people. We had a lot of fun and some quality down time.
This cabin is very clean, has everything you could need l, the bed was so comfortable, check-in process was done wuth ease, the prioerty is beautiful, it was quiet for the most part, and very welcoming the moment I walked in!
Great location for our high school fishing team. Plenty of space for our trucks and boat. At least 3 boat ramps less than 20 minutes away. House was clean and comfy. Nice amenities. Would definitely stay here again in the future.
This location is perfect! They EVERYTHING for a fun filled weekend. If you need to relax & unplug this is the perfect spot! It’s right across the street from Lake Tenkiller state park, so close to our favorite marina & great restaurants! We look forward to staying there again!
Wonderful long weekend with our kids. House was just as described and met all our needs. We loved all the little details they left like the basket of snacks and the travel toiletries in case we forgot ours. Would definitely stay again.
A beautiful cabin, so very comfy, spotlessly clean and welcoming. The well-equipped kitchen allowed for easy meal preparation, and the comfortable living space was perfect for curling up with a good book, TV and lots of DVDs to choose from. We enjoyed the firepit in the cold weather. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and ensured we had everything we needed for a truly memorable stay.

About the host
Hosted by Michael & Katy
Michael grew up in NE OK and I (Katy) grew up in the upper gulf coast area of Texas. Our adventure together began one evening when we ran into each other in SE TX. We instantly felt we were soulmates (I actually phoned my mother that evening and told her I had met the man I was going to marry). Our first date was whimsical and from then on, we were inseparable. We married 6 months later and relocated to the Midwest where we started a family and had a passion for renovating houses. Several years later we craved our native warmer climate and settled down in NE Oklahoma. Michael enjoys competitive bass fishing (the whole family truly does - but he takes it seriously!) and I enjoy hiking, finding waterfalls & swimming holes, and exploring. I have a servant's heart and my love language is hosting. I enjoy spoiling others with experiences and find the most impactful moments wouldn't be possible without the fine details. We are so excited to be to be a part of your next adventure!
