La Buena Vida is located in the rolling hills of the Ouachita Mountains in the gorgeous Carter Mountain West development. While just outside of the Hochatown city limits which offers lower lodging taxes, the development is only three minutes from ATV trails, five minutes from Local 259, The Maze of Hochatown, Chili Dippers Golf Club, and the turn-off for Cedar Creek Golf Course, and seven minutes north of Shuck Me, Mountain Fork Brewery, and Okie Girls.

Potential for Noise: Hochatown is a growing community, and there may be construction noise on weekdays. Hwy 259 is a thoroughfare for logging trucks that create highway noise that can travel far distances depending on weather and ambient noise. We provide sound machines in the bedrooms and outdoor speakers for the decks to help with any noise concerns.

Fantastic NYE stay
We had a large group of 6 adults and 11 kids (2-13). This cabin was a great fit for us with plenty of space. The kids having their own level was wonderful and they really enjoyed the foosball table and arcade console. Communication with the host was very good; she even arranged to have firewood delivered for us. The only critique would be that the kitchen was not quite as well stocked as some other VRBO homes. Little things were missing like salt and pepper, a mixing bowl and lighter to get the fire started. But these are very minor. The cabin is amazing and we would gladly stay again.

Wonderful Experience with Outstanding Support
We had an incredible stay at this beautiful cabin in Broken Bow! The setting was perfect, and the cabin itself was clean, cozy, and just as described. Our host, Jennifer, went above and beyond to ensure we had an enjoyable stay. When we encountered a minor wasp issue, she addressed it quickly and effectively, putting our minds at ease. Jennifer was always just a message away, answering any questions we had almost instantly. Her dedication to making sure everything went smoothly truly made our stay exceptional. Highly recommend this cabin – we’ll definitely be back!

Youth Group Trip
I took a group of girls up to Broken Bow for a church youth adventure trip. The cabin was perfect for our needs. We had 3 leaders and about 11 girls. They loved the bunk room, games, and hot tub especially. We had plenty of space to gather, clean up, and relax. I would recommend this property. No neighbors yet! We walked the roads of the neighborhood 2 mornings and that was nice as well. Jennifer was very easy to communicate with and there was nothing about the rental I didn't like. I would stay here again.

Beautiful home
Beautiful home in a cozy quiet neighborhood! We LOVED the bedroom layouts and the bunk room was perfect for all the kiddos!! My only request is maybe adding an exterior light near the bottom stairs so when using the fire pit at night people can see better getting up and down the lower exterior stairs!

Family Fun !
This was a Christmas gift for my family. I wanted to provide a getaway that was low impact and relaxing. Boy did this place fulfill my plans !!! Thus was our 5th visit in the past 2 years and I would easily say the best. Accommodations were above what we expected. I have used VRBO in Broken Bow 3 times, San Francisco, New York, Orlando, Nashville, Hot Springs and about a half dozen other locations and I've never had the communication from the agent or a more carefree checkout than I had this stay. Jennifer was absolutely great and marketed the venue expertly. There were no questions left unanswered. I plan on using her again if the chance comes available. She made "vacation" just that, a "vacation".

Beautiful house just outside of Hochatown
We really enjoyed the stay. The house and area were nice and spacious. All rooms and common spaces were decorated nicely. The kitchen was stocked with all items we needed. Plenty of towels for each bathroom.The property manager was terrific and easy to communicate with. Unfortunately, the area in the back around the fire pit was not ideal for our youngest. It's a pretty steep slope, and surrounded by thorny growth. Also, Hwy 259 is rather close, and we are at the top of a hill. The diesel truck traffic is completely out of control of the host, but is definitely something you have to listen to at all hours.

Amazing Cabin with a Great View
This house is amazing inside and out. Best part is the natural light and view. Owners responded quickly to questions. Just know the location on VRBO is incorrect and the cabin is about 8 miles North of Hochatown. However, don’t let the distance deter you as the views and cabin make up for the little longer drive.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Graham

Host profile image
We are the Graham Family. We have four children. Two are adults who are out on their own, and two are still in school and keep us young! We live in the DFW area and love traveling! Vacations always bring us back together as a family which is extremely important to us. We fell in love with the Broken Bow/Hochatown/Beavers Bend area back in 2016. We knew on our very first trip to the area that we would love to own a cabin as soon as we could make it happen. We started our cabin owner experience with Wolf's Ridge and quickly knew that hosting and sharing the Broken Bow experience was something we really love to do. We added La Buena Vida after having a two-year-long dream of creating a cabin that will honor our favorite bar in Akumal, Mexico called La Buena Vida. For us, Broken Bow is about reducing the distractions we always have at home and reconnecting with family and friends. It is about building lifelong memories in the gorgeous natural surroundings while having a blast with all of the amenities and nearby activities. It gives us great pleasure to share our cabins with other families and allow them to have the same experiences creating new memories that will last a lifetime!
