About this property
Big Oak Cabin - mountaintop home near Jasper
Big Oak Cabin is a split-level, 2 bedroom, 2 bath house, with 2 separate living rooms. Situated on 5 acres high in the Ozarks, the house is much larger than it looks from the picture, with a large front porch and west-facing rear deck overlooking a pond and splendid sunsets. Only a few miles from the Buffalo River and numerous hiking trails to overlooks and waterfalls, half a mile from Cliff House Restaurant and five miles south of the quaint town of Jasper. Conveniently located on Hwy 7, Big Oak is a place of quiet Ozark peace.

About the host
Hosted by Dennis & Naomi Gundersen
We're Dennis & Naomi, seasoned hikers and lovers of the Ozarks. Our business is publishing children's books reprinted from the 1800s. We stay here at Big Oak Cabin as frequently as we can, often 6 to 8 times each year. The Ozarks are abundant in trails that are easily hiked by almost anyone, while also having very challenging options. We're glad to help you find the right outdoors adventure for you and those traveling with you!
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with Big Oak Cabin back when it was only a private residence, and bought it to enjoy it for our own trips, as well as to share with others. Its immense trees, including "Big Oak" himself (the 350 year old tree out front) give the property an amazing character. We've never found anywhere so relaxing.
