Little Fox Cottage ~ Rustic Modern Retreat for 2 w
Little Fox Cottage is a newly renovated small rustic modern retreat for two tucked in the trees, and one of four properties on 17 acres overlooking the White River. This Cottage sleeps two in one bedroom with a queen bed, full bath with stand up shower, and kitchen stocked with all the basics. The Living Room has a loveseat and dining area for two with a smart tv that is logged into Netflix. The covered porch wraps two sides of the Cottage and offers a view of the White River in Summer and mo
This Cottage sleeps two in one bedroom with a queen bed, full bath with stand up shower, and kitchen stocked with all the basics. The Living Room has a loveseat and dining area for two with a smart tv that is logged into Netflix. The covered porch wraps two sides of the Cottage and offers a view of the White River in Summer and more sweeping views when the leaves fall in the colder months. There is no direct access to the River, but this property is less than 5 minutes from River Access and 7 minutes to Sylamore Creek Access. There is a Washer/Dryer in the cottage.
Trains~ The Cottage sits atop a bluff that overlooks the White River. On the banks of the river are train tracks. The train comes by daily and, though brief, is heard from the area though it remains mostly quiet in the Cottage.
This Cottage is in a somewhat remote location and GPS or other mapping apps will not work in locating it, nor is the Address accurate. You can only reach this property with the driving directions provided before arrival. The Little Fox sits on a bluff overlooking the White River, but does not have direct river access. Public river access is available at the boat launch just 5 minutes away. It's also important to note that the cabin is accessed by a gravel road that can be bumpy in spots and may not be suitable for vehicles with very low clearance. It's not accessible by motorcycle.
Rental Rules
~Primary guest must be age 25 or older
~Check in is 4:00 PM-10PM / Check out is 11:00 AM
~No Smoking in or near the Cabin
~Dogs are allowed, with $50 Pet Fee (2 dogs max, rules apply)
~No loud noise or parties
~Absolutely no UTV's, ATV’s, Trailers, or Campers allowed
~Number of guests cannot exceed the maximum occupancy as stated in the listing
~It should be noted that our properties are located in a rural and, in some cases, remote area of the Ozarks, where you will find many different forms of wildlife. Raccoons, deer, mice, snakes, eagles, wild hogs, black bear, skunks, and opossums are common, and may be a nuisance at certain times of the year. Other pests such as ants, wasps, mosquitos, spiders, bees, flies, and gnats also live nearby. Each property has a regular/quarterly pest control device, but we cannot guarantee against Guests seeing any animals or pests during their stay and no refunds will be made for this.
Pet Rules:
*Please clean up after your dog.
*Please do not allow your dog to bark excessively or to roam onto neighboring properties. Many of our homes are located near residential neighborhoods, and we must respect the comfort and privacy of those residents. Complaints may lead to eviction without refund.
*Please do not allow dogs on furniture or beds. It is also helpful to bring something (bed, blanket, etc.) on which you know your pet will be comfortable sleeping. Extra cleaning fees will be charged for furniture, blankets, comforters, etc. that have pet hair left behind.
*Please don’t leave your dog unattended for long periods of time. A crate is ideal for those situations in which you must leave. You are responsible for any damages your pet causes.
*Please ensure that your dog’s medications and immunizations are up-to-date, especially flea treatment.
