About this property

Papa Bear Cabin 1 - Community pool and hottub.

Papa Bear Cabin is a welcoming and cozy one bedroom cabin that is perfect for a small family trip or a Couple getaway! Sleeping arrangements include a private bedroom with a king bed and a sturdy twin over full bunk bed in the living area. Great getaway with or without the kids. This cabin will accommodate up to four guests. My three cabins may be named after the three little bears but unlike in the story, all three are just right. Please let me know if you are looking to rent more than one cabin.


The kitchen is fully stocked with the basics that every kitchen needs. There are two smart TVs for streaming, One in the bedroom and one in the living area. With a private picnic table and Charcoal BBQ grill, you can enjoy a wonderful classic BBQ.

This cabin is in an amazing location being near the highway and close to the highlights of Branson, but also tucked away in a woodsy area so you still feel away from everything. Less than five minutes away from Silver Dollar City, you can occasionally hear The whistle from the Silver Dollar train in the distance. You will be within walking distance of Ozark mountain pizza/bar and the famous Billy Gail's breakfast restaurant, with there amazing giant pancakes.

AMENITIES
The resort offers an outdoor community pool and hot tub with fairy lights hung above to make a lovely atmosphere. The pool is open from Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day weekend, the hot tub is open April through November. The community fire pit is a great place to spend the evening relaxing and roasting some s'mores. There is open space behind the cabin for outdoor games Like cornhole. The cabin offers some great games to play during your stay including cornhole, bocce ball, and some board games.

PETS
The non-refundable pet fee is $75 per pet, with a maximum of two pets. Only dogs are allowed. If you are bringing a pet with you, you must mention how many you have in your reservation request and a payment request will be sent to you for the pet fee.

PARKING
There is parking space for 2 vehicles at every cabin. If you bring a boat, trailer, bus, ect that does not fit within the cabin's parking or goes into the drive at all, it must be parked elsewhere. You can find storage lots and parking for boats in various places in Branson including Branson storage and state park marina.

SMOKING
No smoking of any substance is allowed inside the cabin. Smoking is allowed outside only. Violation of this rule will result in a $500 fee charged to the guest.

SECURITY DEPOSIT
The security deposit is a hold placed on your credit card and is not actually charged. The hold is released three days after departure as long as there is no damage, extra cleaning needed, or policy violations.

CANCELLATIONS
Unfortunately, sometimes life happens and plans need to change. Although the listing site states no refund for cancellation, we do have a cancellation policy in which partial refunds are given only after the rental agreement we email in returned to us.

Cancellations made more than 30 days prior to scheduled arrival will be fully refunded, minus one night of the average daily rate for the time frame of the reservation. Cancellations made 30 or less days from arrival receive no refunds. (I strongly suggest purchasing traveler insurance.)

Whether you just need a place to crash after a long day of Branson activities or to simply to relax, This cozy cabin is the perfect place to stay.

Disclaimer: the pictures on this listing are from Mama Bear cabin until I'm able to get professional pictures done this summer. The lay out and décor of the cabins are the exact same and most of the furniture are the same aswell.

The rental agreement that will be emailed after booking MUST be sign or your stay is forfeited.

Good for a Short Stay

The cabin was super cute and cozy. The bed linens were soft and the king bed was comfortable. We had everything that we needed for our stay. There were just a few things that could have been more clean-looking. For example, a couple of the washcloths appeared dirty as well as the shower curtain, but nothing that ruined our stay or anything. The top bunk is super squeaky and annoying if the person sleeping on it moves at all. Also several outlets in the bedroom didn’t work for us. Overall though, it was good for a quick two night stay.

Cozy and clean stay at Papa Bear cabin

Family of 3 recently stayed at the Papa Bear cabin and had a wonderful experience. While the property is cozy and compact, it is impeccably clean and updated, making for a comfortable and pleasant stay. The cabin's cozy atmosphere and modern amenities were just what we needed for a relaxing getaway. The location is great, offering easy access to local attractions while providing a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle. The check-in process was smooth, and the host was communicative and helpful throughout my stay. Overall, I highly recommend the Papa Bear cabin for anyone looking for a charming and well-maintained place to stay in Branson. I would definitely consider returning for future visits.

Perfect stay, great location, great private cabin

The cabin’s location is ideal for exploring all the amenities the Branson area has to offer. The cabin was just as it was described. Clean, modern, with nice furniture. The bed was super comfy as were the couches. Having some games there was a fun touch. If available, we will come back to stay here once again.

Great location for SDC.

Mom and two teen daughters who had a great three-night stay. Cabin was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. Very close to SDC—from our cabin door to getting on the parking lot tram in minutes! We tried Ozark Mtn Pizza next door one night and it was good. My daughters have already asked to stay here next time. Thank you.

A memorable stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Papa Bear cabin. Located at the edge of Branson and West Branson, it was convenient to so many things. We traveled with a pup and smiled when we saw a basket filled with items for our 4 legged friend. The grounds provided lots of walking space which was appreciated. One suggestion…consider providing soap or body wash in the bathroom. We left a bar for your next guest. Wishing you continued success.

About the host

Hosted by Sam Schmitz

Host profile image
I grew up working with my parents on vacation homes in Branson, which gave me about 14 year experience while only being 19. I didn't know much about the paperwork side but the rest I had ample knowledge. I was able to get enough in scholarships to pay for college so I used the money I saved for a down payment on 2 condos starting my new venture as a nighty rental owner in Branson. 2 years later I had made enough to expand. Buying these 3 cabins are a big step for where I am in life, but with the help of my family and those I met along the way I'm getting through doing the best I can. It is my hope to simultaneously help others have a great experience in Branson while also being able to make a living for myself.
