My wife and I had a great weekend away. We took the jeep out on the trails for the day and headed back to our awesome little stay at the covered wagon. We recommend bringing a comforter or sleeping bag. It’s easier to cool the place than warm it. It was clean and cozy! It was so nice to take a hot shower after a day full of chasing waterfalls. It’s not far from Bryd’s Adventure area where we enjoyed a delicious steak dinner and the Oark Cafe where we had a great breakfast before heading back to reality.
Wonderful area and nice experience. Kris got with me whenever I had a questions.
Very happy with everythhing.

It was a beautiful area and a great experience. The wagon was inviting and clean. We were fortunate enough to see lots of stars before it got cloudy.
Needs outdoor lighting. Ensure you drive a vehicle that is a truck or SUV to be able to get up the driveway when leaving.

Little disappointed
There was several dead bugs on floor glad the were dead little disappointed we had to bring sheets blankets towels wash clothes other than that was a cool little place
We had a great time! The cabin was exactly as pictured and so clean! My husband went fly fishing in the river and caught 2. We will definitely be back!
This property was so cozy. It was a great place to relax and enjoy nature. The river is a short walk away. It was definitely a 5 star place that ill be visiting again!
It was just what we needed to escape the busyness of life and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature. We splashed in the river, watched animals playing and chased crawdads. The stagecoach was a fun upgrade to old school camping.
This was a gorgeous and unique experience in the covered wagon! The hosts did a wonderful job clearly communicating what was already stocked in the cabin versus what we needed to bring so there was no confusion and we were well prepared. The scenery was beautiful and the Oark Cafe and Mountainview Bistro were right down the road. Quick easy access for riding our sxs. Even with limited time for our quick weekend we were able to have a great memorable adventure!
The covered wagon was super cute. There was plenty of space and everything was comfortable. Nice little walk to river, beautiful place to stroll. Too cold during our trip to dip toes in the water. Short. nice drive from I 40. Ours was just a stop on our way through but this is a great place to spend time.
We enjoyed our stay in the covered wagon. It was very clean, smelled amazing, and the string lights gave it such a cozy vibe.It rained the first night we were there and we loved listening to the sounds of the raindrops on the canvas. We would definitely stay here again.
If you’re looking for a laidback weekend in the Ozarks including everything from campfires, fishing in the mulberry river, stargazing so clear you can see the Milky Way, but also having a comfortable bed and full size private shower available?? This is your spot. Very clean, very private, very peaceful. Great place for a romantic weekend getaway for two.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the wagon! The instructions regarding what is and isn't included were spot on. So be sure you read the instructions sent and bring your own linens....bed and bath. The cell service is almost non-existent but the wifi does the trick. We brought wood from the house and enjoyed an excellent fire. Overall, we will definitely stay again when in the area!
