Nice for a quick getaway or as a stopping point on a long trip.

Great Getaway

We had a short guys trip to float on the river. Perfect place to have a base camp. Close to everything and there is a creek literally out the back door. We thoroughly enjoyed this location. We will be back.

Beautiful cabin on the river!

Wonderful host and beautiful cabin on the river - ducks, geese, and birds to watch and can sit by the river and drink your morning coffee! We had a girls wknd trip to Noel, canoeing, and this cabin is close to be able to do that but also in a quiet neighborhood. Clean, comfortable beds, and plenty of room for the 5 of us adults.

Beautiful cabin right on the river

We enjoyed the location right on Indian Creek and the 2 swimming holes nature blessed us with right behind the cabin. Perfectly located right off I49 making it very convenient to come and go where we intended as well head back towards home. The owners live across the road and we’re very friendly and helpful during a micro burst storm that popped up. We would definitely stay again.

Family vacation

We had such a relaxing weekend at the Cabin. We spent the daytime by the creek fishing swimming and kayaking and we wrapped up the night by making smores around a campfire. The cabin was very clean and has a beautiful view. We will definitely be back!

Perfect Getaway

The house was clean, the hosts were friendly and considerate and the scenery was beautiful. You can throw a rock into Indian Creak from the back porch! We had a very relaxing time in Anderson. I dont think you will find a nicer place for the price. Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home.

Our stay at Indian Creek was nice. Having the creek out the back door was beautiful and relaxing. The cabin was cute and had everything we needed for the weekend. The only issue we had was the neighbor started powerwashing her patio at 6:30 am and continued for at least 2.5 hours. We had planned to get up and have coffee on the back deck Saturday morning but the powerwashing was so loud we could not enjoy that. Overall the host and cabin were great!

The home is wonderful! It's an entire home with two bedrooms. Very clean. The house is a smaller footprint, but the owners were thoughtful on furniture and removing closet doors that it's efficient and was more than enough space for my family's luggage and we don't travel light. I didn't feel like I was tripping on my stuff. Definitely bigger than a hotel. There was a family of geese that visit, they honked at me a few times but they left me alone while I drank coffee on the deck. There is a large front lawn. The neighbors seem nice and were quiet too. It was a very relaxing stay.

Beautiful place!

We loved the space! It had everything we needed to unplug and relax! We had dinner in a cave, explored Bluff Dwellers cave, did some fishing, made s’mores in a campfire, grilled some steaks, played board games, and watched some great movies on the pullout couch. Next time, we’ll stay longer so we can make a couple day trips to table rock area and Branson. The water pressure was great, the washer and dryer was a bonus, and we didn’t have to take up extra packing space by bringing towels, kitchen items, and bedding. We just really loved it!

Wow. This is a beautiful place to stay with a view of the Indian Creek from the living area & one of the bedrooms. Not jut a box window view, but almost ceiling to floor windows letting you enjoy the whole view. The wildlife is pretty entertaining with a goose reigning the little beach out back and chasing all the other birds away, except for the ducks, they will not leave! Lol. Lots of gorgeous rocks to choose from with a lot of them in heart shapes! The cabin is very clean, cozy & has everything you need. The neighbors are great & very helpful. The creek was up so the fishing was hard, but I didn't give up (or chased off by the goose) and after believing & casting my arm off, I did land one! God bless you for sharing your little haven with us!

Nice little place

My daughters and I wanted to float the Elk river and needed somewhere to stay. This was the perfect little place for the three of us! It was in a nice location, beautiful views, quiet neighborhood, had everything we needed, and was reasonably priced. My only, tiny complaint, and I'm even willing to say maybe I'm nitpicking...it could have been a little cleaner. There was some sort of hand or food smears on the microwave and refrigerator, the floor needed to be swept, the bathroom counter could use a wipe down, and there were used tissues in the bedroom waste can. Now, that being said, I'm perfectly capable of using the broom (which I did...a couple of times), and it took me ten seconds to wipe down the microwave and front of the refrigerator after I did the dishes, and maybe five seconds to wipe the bathroom counter. Definitely not a deal breaker, but when we first walked in it was very noticeable. I very much appreciated being able to toss our river stinky things into the washer and dryer after our float rather than having to tote them home with us. And I'm a big fan of the little grocery store just up the hill. Very convenient! All in all, we would stay there again!

I am so sorry about the cleaning issues. Please next time communicate the issues and we will get someone down to make it right. It should not have been dirty at all. This is the cleaning crews mistake. Again I'm so sorry and please next time just message us.
