The house was even more beautiful than the photos. The whole property is very accommodating! The beds were comfortable and the kitchen stocked! Missy provided information and directions before the trip. It can get tricky driving to remote areas but, the directions were perfect! We enjoyed are stay very much and hopefully can return soon!

Eclipse weekend

We booked over a year ago to watch the eclipse. The Elk house was fantastic! We enjoyed fishing, the stunning view, the beautiful wild flowers. Our hosts even asked us to stay and watch the eclipse with them and made us lunch! We had a perfect weekend, we never left the property, I can’t wait to book our next trip

Luxurious house with beautiful views!

Wish our house was as nice as this gem in the woods! Beautiful views, especially from the sunrooms big (clean) windows. This house has everything you need, just bring your drinks and food. Would really rather keep this place a secret!

Love Love This Place!

We were looking for a quiet getaway, and this was perfect. The house is huge on the inside, with 4 very comfortable bedrooms. Very clean and well maintained. And fairly remote. Not sure how we were so blessed - but two nights we were there, we sat on the back porch watching thunderstorms lighting up clouds in the distance. Beautiful. The mountain views were great. There are several smaller cabins on the same property, which were empty when we visited - so it was exactly the quiet getaway we needed. (It's about a 15 minute drive into Talihina, where we did go to AJ's butcher shop for groceries a couple of times.) This just became our go-to getaway! We'll be back.

About the host

Hosted by Melissa Snodgrass

My husband, Bradley, and I have been enjoying cabin life for years. His family has had cabins in Southeastern Oklahoma for decades. My love of cabins didn't begin until we got married 20 years ago. Bradley's mother had cabins in the Kiamichi Wilderness that she so graciously let us go to every chance that we got. We lived in the DFW area for many years. Nearly 4 years ago we decided to move to the Kiamichi Valley. The cabin we built here became our home! It has been so amazing waking up to mountain views every day! We have two children, Jake 16, and Max 11. We live near Mountain View Retreat in Tuskahoma. We hope you will enjoy this beautiful part of Oklahoma as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

Mountain View Retreat is a wonderful getaway! We found this property while looking for the next chapter in our lives. As soon as we saw it we were hooked! It simply took our breath away with the amazing mountain views! There is ample space on the property to roam. There are woods to explore, personal fire pits per cabin, plus another fire pit by the covered bridge, 3 ponds, and porches with grills to enjoy.
