Forest Oasis

This cabin is in a beautiful, wooded setting. It is very quiet except for all the bird songs. It has wonderful outdoor spaces but remember to use bug spray. I had a tick crawl up my leg when sitting by the firepit. The inside was quaint and clean with all the linens, pillows and paper products needed. There is even soap and dryer sheets to do laundry. I wish I would have noticed the dryer handle was missing before I put in laundry, but my husband was able to get the door open with a wire coat hanger. This place has an amazingly comfortable bed. I'm glad I had a sleep mask with me though, because the air/heater is right above the bed and the on button lights up with a blue light when it is on. It did not bother my husband, but it was right above my head. Good TV reception and nice grill, bring charcoal. The only thing I wish I would have prepared better for was cooking. I needed some extra cookware. There was not a strainer or a pot big enough to cook a pot of pasta all at the same time, so I had to cook in batches. I didn't think to bring containers with lids for leftover food storage either. I would also bring foil and my own new sponge for cleaning dishes. The hot tub and hammock made the side porch even better. The view of the lake coming down the drive is beautiful, but you cannot see the lake from the cabin when the trees are leafed out. The gravel drive, especially after rain, is rough. I would stay here again but would like to be closer to Devil's Den.

Home away from home

Cabin was clean and very well staged. It didn’t feel like just another rental cabin or hotel. Owner was very responsive and even allowed us to show up early due to our other check out time at previous place. Location is perfect and not far from amenities, shopping etc. Will definitely be back and recommend to family and friends.

Picturesque

My husband and I drove from Dallas to enjoy the autumnal foliage in a beautiful and private location - this property exceeded our expectations. We delighted in the peaceful sounds of nature while sitting around the fire pit underneath the stars. The views were absolutely gorgeous, the Ozark forest was just steps away and the cabin was very cute and cozy with everything we needed. We 100% recommend this gem and we plan to be repeat guests.

Clean, well-kept cabin in a peaceful setting.

We enjoyed our stay at this cabin. We had an issue with the keypad, and the owner was very quick to respond with a solution. The driveway to where we needed to go could use a little grading. All in all, it was a nice, relaxing experience!!

We stayed 2 days at red star cabin. It was perfect for the two of us. Great bed and linens. Lovely hot tub. Modern appliances. Would like to see more of the lake but summertime foliage can’t be helped. Loved it and hope to return.
