Very comfortable and relaxing stay.

Squatch Watch Lodge was very well equipped with almost everything needed for an enjoyable stay. We brought our own food but did eat out a couple of times at The Oaks Steakhouse. Michelle was very understanding and helpful with our booking. My only suggestion would be to include a fly swatter and maybe some white vinegar with the other cabin supplies.

This may be the cleanest cabin we have ever stayed in! The host/owner was so responsive to any message sent. The kids loved being able to fish whenever they wanted in the private pond. 100% would stay in this cabin again.

Needed to relax

We were looking to just get away for a few days and relax and this was perfect for that. The cabin was very nice and comfortable and the location was convenient to some really good places to eat. We would definitely rent this place again in the future.

Perfect for Our Girls Trip!

The cabin and surroundings were perfect! It was spacious, clean, well-stocked, and comfortable! The hot tub was so relaxing, and the fire pit area was fun to hangout for our group of four. I have already recommended it to friends. We had a friendly duck and some squirrels who had healthy appetites, so bring some appropriate food for them! Plenty of coffee, creamer, toilet paper, and paper towels. Some places don’t provide those anymore. It’s in the woods but so close to everything! Loved it!

quiet getaway

The cabin was beautiful and clean. The jacuzzi and back porch were perfect for relaxing with loved ones, and there were plenty of board games and hot cocoa to end the night.

Perfect Getaway

We loved staying at the Squatch Watch Lodge! It was the perfect getaway quietly nestled in the trees next to a pond with a hot tub on the back patio and conveniently located near everything in Hocatown and Beaver's Bend State Park. We will definitely be back.

The perfect spot!

We booked a last minute trip to Broken Bow and was so happy with this place. The host was super responsive and helpful when we had questions and the cabin was stocked with all the essentials and more. We loved the pond and location and will definitely book again next year!

Absolutely amazing!

My family and I took a last minute get away, and everything was great the moment we walked in! Felt just like home immediately, we also really loved all the Sasquatch stuff around the cabin and the fact that they thought everything to make it comfortable.
