Enjoy the perfect temperature any time of year. Whether it’s a sunny summer day or a crisp winter evening, the heated pool makes every season swim season at Mint To Be.
We added a fun new bridge to explore and play on the other side of the creek
Just steps from the cabin, this private creek offers a peaceful escape where you can dip your toes, unwind, and enjoy the soothing rhythm of nature.

About this property

◆ Private pool + hot tub + fire pit

Some places you stay. Some places you remember. Mint To Be is the second kind. Tucked on a private acre in Pine Hills North, this modern cabin was built for the trips that actually bring people together — late nights around the fire, kids splashing in the creek, adults soaking in the hot tub while something good plays on the outdoor TV. No noise from neighboring cabins. No fighting over the bathroom. No reason to leave.

The outdoor space is unlike anything else in Hochatown.
Your private seasonal creek is the first thing kids run to and the last thing they want to leave; wading, stone skipping, exploring. The gated pool has loungers and plenty of sun. The covered hot tub deck has an outdoor Smart TV and a gas grill. The fire pit is built for s'mores and long conversations. A hammock hangs in the trees by the creek. Cornhole and yard games sit under string lights. You could spend three days out here.

Inside, the space feels as good as it looks.
Vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows flood the great room with light. The chef's kitchen is fully stocked for a real group meal, and the dining table seats everyone. The living room has plush seating, a large Smart TV, and a gas fireplace available in the cooler months.

The adults sleep well here.
Both king suites are on the main floor, each with luxury linens, a Smart TV, and a private spa ensuite with a deep soaking tub and an oversized tiled shower. These are real retreats not just rooms.

The rest of the crew is handled.
The loft bunk room fits up to four with a twin-over-full bunk, a twin bed, and a sleeper sofa plus its own Smart TV.

And then there's the arcade.
A custom console with 60 classic games. Pac-Man, Galaga, Donkey Kong. The rematches write themselves.

A few things worth knowing:
◆ Maximum occupancy is 10 guests.
◆ The booking guest must be 25 or older and present for the entire stay.
◆ Dogs are welcome up to two well-behaved pups at $75 per dog per stay.
◆ Pool heating is available September - May at $75 per night and must be requested at least 24 hours before check-in.
◆ The gas fireplace is available October - April.
◆ A signed rental agreement and a refundable credit card hold are required to finalize your reservation, the hold is a pending transaction, not a charge.

Mint To Be is privately owned and managed by Turtle Time Properties. When you reach out, you're texting the owners not a call center. We'll have your keycode ready the morning of check-in and a full digital guidebook waiting before you arrive.

This is where your group stops scrolling and starts actually being somewhere together. Come find your vibe.

Thank you for letting us know and for sharing your feedback. I’m glad to hear the kitchen felt well stocked. I’m sorry about the dishwasher stopping mid-cycle, that’s certainly not the experience we want for our guests. We’ve shared this with our maintenance team so it can be addressed promptly.

Great Location

Sometimes Broken Bow lends itself to loud neighbors due to proximity and layout with other cabins. Mint To Be’s location and the backyard layout are truly peaceful and secluded despite the convenient access. The heated pool sets it apart in terms of amenities - our family loved swimming in March!

This was really great. The pool was a good size and fit all 9 of us. The outdoor patio with the tv and fireplace was amazing and relaxing even with the kids running around like crazy. The manual made things easy and there was a lot of towels, plenty of utensils, and other kitchen appliances. We only really needed to head into town for milk you can easily spend your whole trip at the house with the right people! Definitely going to book again just wish led we lived a little closer.

The road to the house was horrible. We should have been told that an higher profile Vehicle would be better to get to the house. The beds were horrible. We tried both king beds and neither one was comfortable. The grill was not clean and it was falling apart and laying on the deck.

Response from VrboOwner on 26 November 2025
Thank you for sharing your feedback. I’m sorry to hear parts of your stay didn’t meet your expectations. I also wish I had known about these concerns during your visit, I’m always available and would’ve happily addressed everything right away. Road conditions in Hochatown can definitely be hit or miss. Most roads in the area are unpaved and can be rough at times depending on when the city last grades them. While ours isn’t the worst by any means, I’ll update the listing so guests know what to expect when arriving. Regarding the grill, had I been notified, I would’ve replaced it on the spot. After reading your review, I went ahead and purchased a brand-new grill the same day to ensure future guests have a great experience. We also haven’t received negative feedback about the beds before, but I’ll personally check everything to make sure it meets the high standards we set.

Fantastic stay!

We decided to check out Hochatown for the first time and booked this house not knowing what the expect. House was spectacular in terms of sleeping accommodations and cleanliness. We have a 20 month old and 3 year old which can sometimes be scary not knowing if things are “kid friendly” and this house totally was safe for them! Location to shops, brewery, food was a plus.

Cozy Cabin

New cabin located in a very private area - we had no neighbors near us. There’s a nice creek flowing in the back that the kids enjoyed exploring. We took advantage of the grill, fire pit, hot tub, and fireplace outside (only qualm - there were no grilling tongs provided). Inside, there was enough seating for eight at the dining room table, so we all were able to have our meals in one table together. Kids enjoyed having their own space in the loft and our youngest enjoyed the teepee sleeping area. Family had a great in this cozy cabin!!

About the host

Hosted by Kelli

Host profile image
We're Turtle Time Properties — a family-run collection of vacation homes designed for people who want their trip to actually feel like one.
We personally own and manage Mint To Be, which means you have our cell number from the day you book. When you text us, you're reaching the owners, not a property manager, not a ticketing system. We're fast, we're real, and we care about your stay because this cabin is ours.

Before your arrival, we'll send a detailed digital guidebook with everything you need to know about the cabin and our personal recommendations for the area. Our goal is simple: by the time you pull up the driveway, you shouldn't have a single unanswered question.

Why they chose this property

Most Hochatown cabins give you a wooded lot. Mint To Be gives you a private acre with a seasonal creek your group will still be talking about on the drive home.

The combination here doesn't exist anywhere else in the area: a gated pool, a covered hot tub deck, a fire pit, a creek, a hammock, a retro arcade, and genuine seclusion, no neighboring cabins in sight. Two full king suites with private spa ensuites mean the adults in your group get real privacy and real rest. The loft handles the rest of the crew without anyone feeling like an afterthought.

Mint To Be works equally well for multi-family trips, extended family reunions, and groups of friends who want to actually spend time together. Whatever your reason for coming, this is the property that delivers on what it promises.

What makes this property unique

We personally manage this cabin and take pride in being just a text away whenever you need us! You’ll have our cell number for any questions, big or small. Before your stay, we’ll send you a detailed Online Guidebook with all the essentials on the condo and a handy local guide packed with fun things to do. Whether you’re planning a romantic escape, a girls’ getaway, or a family adventure, we’re here to make your stay unforgettable and full of great memories!
