Ask a questionAbout Jeff Ayers
We’re an advertising copywriter and a carpenter. We’re outdoor lovers and adventurists. We divide our time between our renovated barndo on the windy flat prairie of western Oklahoma and our little creek in our Missouri mountain woodlands. Our Camp Host, Jeff Ayers, is only five minutes away when we are not living on site, and he provides excellent customer services for our guests. When we purchased these eight acres we had only a massive forest and two crystal clear creeks; we turned it into an oasis of happiness one little project at a time. We love motorcycle camping trips, outdoor excursions, campfires, dream chasing and building stuff. We abide by the motto, "How we spend our days is how we live our lives"... and we believe in living life to the fullest always and all ways. We lived in The Happy Camper while we built Creekside Cottage and Cabin on the Creek. We now split our time between Missouri and Oklahoma. Our three vacation rentals, The Happy Camper, Cabin on the Creek & Creekside Cottage were created to provide serenity and peace for our visitors.
Jeff Ayers purchased this Cabin in 2014
Why Jeff Ayers chose Annapolis
Morning mountain mist, the sound of a babbling brook, trees that touch the a few of the reasons we decided to homestead this property from a gnarly forest. The mountains and crystal clear rivers and streams called out to us. And we came. We bought property and made a life here. It's been the journey of a lifetime and we love sharing it with our guests.
What makes this Cabin unique
Creekside bliss. Campfires. Night symphonies from insects and frogs. Pure mountain air. Bird songs, wildlife, brilliantly clear night skies. All these and more - you'll love it here. (Unplug is literal. Internet or cell are available with a 5 minute drive to Annapolis, MO)
