Very cozy cabin for peaceful weekend! Enjoyed watching the horse riders going by during the day. Saturday get together at the ranch bar with live music was fantastic. Also note this cabin has the BEST water pressure we've ever found!

Two moms and their boys

This was a mom and son trip. My friend and I took our two teenage boys…. To say that it was such an enjoyable experience would be a complete understatement…. This is a slice of heaven on earth!

Scott and Lisa were great hosts. They were very responsive and I enjoyed talking with each of them while we were there. We were concerned about driving their in our Tesla but they have a couple of RV Hookups right at the cabin that allowed us to quickly charge (about 30 miles of range for each hour), which gave us peace of mind and got us back on the road with no issues. Thank you guys.

Property was the cleanest the interior design and decor were the best I have ever stayed at in the Eminence area. Scott and Lisa were great hosts and the additional amenity's of the new Whisky River Bar along with food from Shortys Rolling Grill not to mention horseback riding and horse stalls for your own really make this a one stop destination. We will back.

Short River Run

We enjoyed our adventure in the Missouri Ozarks so much! So many waterways to see and saw the Wild Horses twice and I got to check that off my bucket list! The property was clean and comfortable and the hosts showed their hospitality, they are very friendly and accommodating! We hope to come back with our horses sometime in Fall. Thank you for sharing your beautiful place with us!
