⸻5 Stars – Excellent Stay!We had a great time at this property! The home was clean, well-maintained, and the sleeping arrangements were incredibly comfortable—everyone slept great. The easy river access was a huge bonus and made our stay even more enjoyable. Whether we were relaxing or heading out for a float, it couldn’t have been more convenient. The hosts were very accommodating and quick to respond to any questions, which made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend this VRBO for a comfortable and fun getaway!

Awesome get away with welcoming host!

Family booked this cabin for a long weekend. The accommodations were very nice. The porch was lovely for having morning coffee and spending the day when not on the water with the family. Randy and his wife are some of the nicest people you will ever meet and made our stay very enjoyable as we felt welcomed on their property. Defiantly will be making the trip back in the future.

Discover a gem!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with our adult children and their significant others. Randy and Pat thought of everything when furnishing the place! It felt like home from the moment we walked through the door. Great information about the local area was provided prior to arriving which made trip planning very easy.

Fun on the river

This house was great. Randy and Pat were very accommodating, anything we needed was just a call a way. The house was nice and clean. It had games that our kids enjoyed playing. The river was a short walk. We will definitely return to this property.

Perfection

The house was absolutely perfect. The cleanest VRBO I have stayed in. large, spacious, and new. The hosts are awesome people and very easy to work with. This is about a mile from Dawt Mill and 30 minutes from Rockbridge. So it was a great location for us. I highly recommend.

Thank you, Traci. We were glad to be able to host you and your family. And to renew old and forgotten acquaintances. I saw the haul of big rainbows you caught at Rockbridge. Come back anytime. Randy and Pat

Reunion float trip

This is a great place to relax and enjoy life.Secluded, and quiet, except for the sounds of nature.The house is very roomy, great kitchen, and a great place to relax in the living room. We had 3 couples there, and everyone was very happy with the place.Although I am not a fisherman, there seemed like a lot of fish being caught out of the river.We floated the river, and used Sunburst Ranch Outfitter for the float, very nice people, and they also took very good care of our group.

Great spot on the River!

My family and friends stayed at the house for 3 nights during the 4th of July holiday. Randy came down to greet us after we arrived; he was very kind and knowledgeable. He went above and beyond to accommodate us and ensure that we had everything we needed plus extras! The house was clean and well stocked with everything that we needed. The master shower is awesome! Having the washer and dryer was very convenient after playing in the river because we didn't have to pack wet (or dirty) swimsuits. We will definitely stay again! Thanks Randy!!

Peaceful Retreat Near River

We had a very nice stay at this property. Randy & Pat were some of the most accommodating and helpful hosts that we’ve ever had! Their property is gorgeous and we appreciate them welcoming us. The cabin was clean and fully stocked with necessities and more! We enjoyed the complimentary wine on the patio and used the grill & fire pit. The only thing we would have preferred is that the grass around the cabin had been mowed. It was tall and overgrown around the fire pit area, which didn’t prevent us from using but would have been nice to have cut. The water was running fast and high during our stay so fishing wasn’t very good in the area. This was unfortunate but uncontrollable due to recent rainfall. On our last day we drove up to Rockbridge Trout Resort and we’re able to catch Rainbows all day from the spring. Overall, we would highly recommend Pat & Randy’s cabin for anyone looking to get away and get lost in the peace & quite of the Ozark Mountains. Thanks again for an amazing stay!!

Thank you for the nice comments, Brooke. We have also been frustrated with our mower not getting to us timely, but with all the rain we’ve had he really got backed up. But all good now and hopefully the rains will let up so he can keep our place mowed more timely, and the river level finally gets down to good fishing levels again.

Very clean, modern and spacious. Quiet location, close to river and outfitters with everything needed for a weekend getaway. Comfortable beds, large bedrooms and bathrooms with enough room in common areas for our group of 6 adults to relax and get ready for (and recover from) a weekend float trip. Great communication from Randy and Pat and info about the surrounding area. 11 out of 10!

A nice cabin with great access to the river. The only issue was that the air conditioning wasn't working well but the owner did bring in a portable air conditioner that helped.

Rachel, we are so apologetic for the AC going out during your stay. As I mentioned, we had the service man out to fix the problem that had appeared a couple of weeks earlier and he indicated he found the refrigerant leak and fixed it. He came back after your stay and found a second pinhole leak with dye and will be replacing the entire refrigerant unit early this week as soon as the part comes in. Please contact me through regular email and I will arrange a future stay at the guest house at no charge except for the cleaning fee. Again, our apologies for your inconvenience. Randy
