Host was very responsive, the cabin had utensils and things we needed to cook with, and the location was close to everything we wanted to do in Branson. The beds were a bit uncomfortable but bringing your own pillows will help this. We enjoyed our stay and would book this cabin again.

The cabin was beautiful and in great condition. Everything was nice and clean. We had a wonderful stay. The neighbors were loud for a while but this was not the owners fault. That can happen anywhere. The house was great and clean and the beds were comfortable. Our grandson loved his upstairs loft!

There are stairs to get up to the cabin which I didn’t realize when I booked. Quite the first couple of nights but then had some very noisy neighbors. The bath downstairs is truly just a bath no shower attachment. Only shower is upstairs. Beds were a little hard for our taste. Clean overall though.

We enjoyed the location and the overall look of the cabin. There were a couple of things that made it less attractive for us to return. For one thing, the lighting is very poor in the living area. Additionally, it would’ve been nice to have two showers, one upstairs and one downstairs. I have to wonder how often that Jacuzzi tub actually gets used. We certainly didn’t use it and would have appreciated a walk-in shower to go with the king suite.

About the host

Hosted by Desta Pritchett

Host profile image
Jason and Desta have 2 little girls and a little boy that are their pride and joy! They've been blessed to call Branson "home" for over 15 years. Both Jason and Desta are veteran Branson performers, and recently, Jason has been touring with his band performing his own top 40 songs around the midwest! Jason and Desta are now real estate agents with Keller Williams Tri-Lakes and have enjoyed helping others find their own "Branson home." "It is our joy to provide the cleanliness and comforts of home to our guests. We want you to choose us time and time again and want you to know we value you! We want you to feel the presence of the Lord every time you stay with us!" Jason and Desta

Why they chose this property

This property is located in a convenient and quiet area. It has been updated to use the outdoor space well. We often get compliments on how cute and cozy it is and we definitely agree! Check out the pictures, we think you'll agree, too!

What makes this property unique

We enjoy the spacious dining area located on the side deck, just outside the kitchen. It has outdoor strung cafe style lights for fun and card games in the evening. Also, the vaulted ceiling and loft design unique to the cabin make it the coziest place to stay in Branson. Combine that with the sound of nature surrounding the cabin and you won't want to go home!
