About this property

Family Retreat, outdoor oasis, game room

(NOTE: Full sized Jacuzzi, but No swimming pool at this property.)

Equipped with your very own Tiki bar + detached game room, fire pit, hot tub and grill, Lovestory is a large farmhouse just 6 minutes from the heart of broken bow, right off of 259. We are near all the action - from zip-lining to horseback riding. Maybe you want to unwind at the lake and rent a boat or simply float the river.

We are in a prime location in the heart of hochatown, we are a stone's throw off of hwy 259, and just minutes from town.

Remember the days of sitting with your friends and family around a tiki bar, roasting marshmallows over an open fire , playing on the playground, and dipping in the hot tub? We want to welcome you back to the farmhouse!

With a tiki bar, hot tub, fire pit, and minutes from all of the action (yes, 6 minutes to the heart of town), you’ll be able to retreat but also not miss out on anything.

This house is our second home, so we take exceptional care of the space. We guarantee that the home is expertly cleaned including all sheets, blankets, and towels after every reservation.

For those whose new norm is working from home or e-learning, the WiFi strength is great! After your long day at the virtual office or classroom, you can head to Broken Bow / Hochatown where there is lots to offer the entire family from zip-lining to horseback riding as well as wineries, breweries and lots of restaurants. Love Story is also in close proximity to Beavers Bend State Park and Broken Bow Lake if you choose to rent a boat or float the river. In addition, there is plenty of room on the property for parking your boat or trailer!

Guests must be at least 25 years old to rent this property and the person who rents must remain for the duration of the rental term. Absolutely NO parties are allowed.

In addition, our unique cabin is only 5 - 9 miles to the marina or state park.

Our kids really enjoyed all the activities this cabin provides (swingset, gameroom, air hockey, etc). The cabin is spacious and the bedrooms were comfortable. It's a slightly older build so some aspects were a bit dated and could use a refresh (kitchen, appliances, exterior doors). Very convenient location to all the attractions. Fairly close to the road so can hear some road noise as stated in the listing. Would have loved some rockers on the porch! Overall a good stay. Would be good for a group.

The property was located very close to Hwy 259. The inside of the home was neat and clean. The yard was well kept. The yard is not completely fenced, so dogs cannot be unsupervised.

We enjoyed the place. It was what they said it would be. It was located in a very quiet spot away from town. The games were a bonus. The air hockey in the house was so fun. The little game shack out back was a cool little touch of class. See if you can beat my high score on Pac Man and Galaga when you get there!! The only hiccup we had was there are two rentals side by side, which made it a tad confusing using the GPS. That was probably on us because we arrived late and tired, and the VRBO app and email system is not too easy to deal with when looking for the door code. Again, that was not the Hosts fault at all. Would love to come here again and bring the "kids". This trip was just the wife and I and it was a nice get away. Thanks for having us!

The cabin was beautifully furnished and family friendly. There we excellent games to play and my kids and I had a good time in the game room. The grill cooked up our steaks well and the tiki bar deck was nice.There is a moldy smell permeating the buildings. If we kept it almost uncomfortably cold, it kept the smell at bay but there are some underlying property issues . We asked the host for dish soap and were told politely it was under the sink. It was not. The appliances in the kitchen need a good cleaning - especially the dishwasher itself. Many of the dishes I pulled out of the cabinet were dirty.I wish our entire experience had matched the potential of this beautiful cabin.

The house was amazing! Perfect for a weekend getaway and had plenty of space with extra to spare for 2 adults and 2 teens! We're actually thinking of booking the same cabin for our next stay because of how perfect the layout was. Plus! A beautiful playground set and a separate game to hut?! Highly recommend!
