Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with our koi cottage. Glad you enjoyed your stay. Those 2 cabins you mention, are only for storage. Sorry, if you were concerned that guests might arrive to stay in them. I hope guests contact me, with any questions or concerns they have during their stay.

It had been 2 years since we stayed last. The bed was very comfortable and we liked the new flooring. It still needs some upgrades, but overall, we look forward for another stay later. The hot tub needed cleaning and the epoxy coating under the water level was wearing down, causing some abrasions on your skin.
Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 14 Oct 2025
It wasn’t an epoxy breaking down. I cleaned and drained the hot tub before this guests arrival. The water must of had a high lime content. This can happen on occasion with well water, especially after heavy rains. The lime left a gritty texture on the shell of the hot tub. I made a trip to Steelville today and cleaned the shell.

Nice place, only couldn't stay a full night due to bedbugs. Had reserved for 2 nights and couldn't stay 1
Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 25 Sept 2025
Bed bugs are an owners worst nightmare. My pest control company came out right away and we closed the cabin for 2 weeks for treatment. Our cabins are sprayed twice a year, instead and outside. The owner of the pest control company told me that bed bugs are usually brought in by guests suitcases. She recommends to never store your suitcase on a floor of a hotel or rental home. We were very sorry that this guest needed to cancel their reservation and refunded full amount after we knew that there was an issue.

I really enjoyed my stay here, it was peaceful and quiet. The bed was super comfortable, I slept well. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking, the goldfish pond is awesome, I also enjoyed using the hot tub. The river is close and there is a grocery store about four miles away in Steelville. I didn't go anywhere, was pleasant enough to just relax at the cabin.
