This cabin and property were the perfect gateway for some much needed peace and quiet. The hosts were amazing and very easy to work with! It's been awhile since I enjoyed so much silence. This will now be a regular place for my wife and I to visit and enjoy the peace and seclusion.
We spent 3 nights here for our anniversary. The property is beautiful; lots of trails and walking paths, a stocked pond, kayaks and a canoe for use on the pond, fire pit, BBQ grill, and covered back deck leading down to the yard. This was a home away from home, fully stocked kitchen and bathroom, plenty of extra linens and bath towels, and even toys/bowls for our dog. Highly recommend if you want a quiet place to relax. We wil definitely be back!
This is a perfect place to take your pups for rest and relaxation. There are trails to explore off leash, a pond with kayaks and canoe, games to play, a cozy fire, a fully stocked kitchen, anything your dog might need, a hammock by the water…we could come here every weekend!
Stayed with my husband and two dogs. House was lovely and well stocked. Host even had toys for the pups. Trails were well maintained. House was far enough from the roads to let the dogs run around without worry. Kayaks were available and host had lifejackets. Would stay again.
Just the break we needed. Kids out of school, beginning of summer break, perfect weather. We stayed at this location about 5yrs ago, and it was great then...just as it was great now. The kids enjoyed fishing, swimming, boating, exploring...just a nice time for the whole family. Definitely well recommended for others.Muhammad Family
Thoroughly enjoyed our week long stay. Our dogs really enjoyed swimming in the pond. The owner also brought over some firewood and provided some nice restaurant recommendations.
This was our second trip to this location and will surely plan on staying again next year. Lots of space to relax, let the dogs run, fish, forage, grill & chill.
Cean very relaxing cabin in Gasconade county with all the amenities. The cabin is away from it all, very quiet and peaceful. Super spot for leaving the city behind.
