The LOVE Shack Shipping Container Tiny Home in the woods near the BNR park
The Love Shack is a perfectly appointed shipping container converted into 320 square feet of cozy living space. Our 37 acre property is bordered on the Southern property line by the Buffalo National River Park land, is 2 miles from the river, & 8 miles from the Pruitt access point. This area is known for beautiful hiking, wildlife, & floating nearby. Branson is 55 minutes North of us. Whether you’re looking for outdoor adventures or peace & tranquility, the Love Shack won’t disappoint.
This 8’X40’ shipping container has been converted into a 320 square foot tiny home. The covered deck provides 400 square feet of additional outdoor living space and is a perfect place to enjoy the sights and sounds of the surrounding forest. Our property is newly developed and in a very rural area.
Keep in mind-this is Newton County. When I say the dirt roads are rough, I’m not kidding. Jeeps, AWD, 4WD will have no issues at all. Small cars will most likely make it, but it is going to be rough. If it’s a rainy time of the year, expect mud, and lots of it in spots.
This property currently has two converted shipping containers along the driveway, The Love Shack and The Butterfly House. This listing is for the Love Shack and is perfect for one couple. If you need another container, check out our second listing.
You’ll have everything needed to prepare a proper meal. The large stainless steel sink, small refrigerator with freezer, hot plate, and an airfryer/toaster oven combination make meal prep a breeze. The grill on the deck has a prep table, side burner, cookware, and grilling utensils. Feel free to use the complimentary spices and seasoning as needed.
The bathroom has everything needed to freshen up after a day of hiking or on the river including a full size shower/bath combination, toilet with bidet, pedestal sink, toiletries, hair dryer, towels and wash cloths, as well as many commonly forgotten items.
With only 320 square feet of interior space, we committed most of the area to the necessities. Cleaning supplies are available for guest use if needed.
We saved just enough space for a small wall mounted smart TV and a seating area with two chairs, although we anticipate most guests will prefer the views from the deck over the TV. It’s just dreamy out there.
This is Newton County. You may see deer, elk, turkeys, bobcats, snakes, or even a bear during your stay. Be mindful of nature, because you will be staying in the wilderness.
The shipping containers are treated for spiders and pests for your comfort. The best way to keep the outside out is to keep doors and windows closed. It’s advisable to use insect spray when hiking, stay on paths or clear areas where you can see where you’re stepping.
The Love Shack shipping container has been lovingly created with original artwork and plentiful amenities. We’ve maximized every inch to provide our guests with a comfortable and enjoyable stay. If experiencing a shipping container is appealing to you, you’re in for a treat.

So happy you decided to take a last minute trip to this beautiful area and give the Love Shack a try. Next time you visit, I’m happy to provide some Jeep trail information. As you leave our gate, turn to the left and follow that road just under 6 miles. You will pop out right at the Pruitt access point of the Buffalo National River. Lots of fun little drives for Jeeps up this way.
Hope to host you again soon. Thanks for taking such great care of the place!
This unique stay was amazing. The forest around us and the beauty of the container were everything we were looking for. We visited for the fall colors and to go hiking. We were able to do that and more. We visited the BNR area which wasn't a far drive and it was beautiful. The host was so nice and responded right away to all our needs. The container was very clean and had everything covered for all your needs. The host even had fresh eggs for our arrival. We will definitely come back!
