We had a wonderful time staying here. The views were amazing. It was so relaxing and peaceful to sit outside and look out at the view. The place had everything we could ever need and more. We picked this place mainly because it was dog friendly and we couldn’t have been happier. For a place that allows dogs I couldn’t find evidence of another dog being there. The place was very clean. Definitely would come back again!
Our 2nd time around for this magnificent place. The view is incredible and words do not do it Justice. The apartment has everything you need if you just want to hang there, or some nice local places to dine out as well. Visiting surrounding towns within a half hour of Van Buren is very doable and Big Spring is amazing. We WILL be back!!
The rental is clean and comfortable, close to everything the small town of Van Buren, MO has to offer including access to Current River and Big Spring Park. The view from the front of the rental is just so amazing, words cannot describe it. I highly recommend this one.
Great spot for a scenic view overlooking the small town of Van Buren along along with section of the beautiful Current River and the surrounding Ozarks hills. The cabin has plenty of space with all the comforts and quick access Big Spring and town. You can snap a picture of groundhog and the humming birds when they show to feed. This cabin in located along Skyline Drive which provides a super place for anyone who wants to take a jog or walk. Highly recommend this cabin for your next trip to the Van Buren - Big Spring - Ozark Scenic Riverways area.
Loved our stay. Super cute, close to everything we wanted to do, yet out far enough for that country feel. Spectacular view of the mountains and Current River. Will stay here again and will recommend to others.
This was our second time staying here for a girl's weekend getaway. We LOVE the view! It is so peaceful next to nature and located in a quiet area.
The internet was out when we arrived, but the owners communicated that to us before we checked-in and let us know when it was back up. The new furniture was a welcome surprise from the last time we visited.
Great little spot to stay for the value!
My husband and I came up here for a relaxing weekend and that is exactly what we got the apartment was clean had all furnished needs for the weekend. The view was amazing from the porch, and it was very close to all amenities in town.
We took our side-by-side on a trailer, unaware of the parking situation, and the people were so friendly about making sure we were accommodated. It was just a bonus to our trip.
We will definitely be booking here again in the very near future!
We love staying at Skyline Drive and this is our second year doing so. We love the house, the amenities, location and the hosts are fantastic! We intend on booking again for 2024. It’s so great to have a familiar place to come home to even if it isn’t my home! Can’t wait till next time!
Awesome location, incredible views. Clean and included all necessary amenities for our stay. Great communication with the host and incredibly accommodating. Would highly recommend.
The apartment was as advertised. It was tidy and unpretentious. It was peaceful. Being from California, my other half was confused by the well pump. I awoke to silence because that is what woke me. The fog over the valley with the sunrise was captivating. Being people who prefer to cook over eating take away, we attracted some small woodland creatures, that happens in the country. Will love to experience it again.

Everything we could possibly need was furnished. Very clean. The only thing that we didn't care for was the parking space was tight for our crewcab truck.
The apartment was clean and had everything we needed for our three-day stay in Van Buren. The location is perfect for visiting Big Spring and canoeing on the Current River. It was a restful, peaceful time just sitting on the porch watching the hummingbirds and seeing the gorgeous view God had created.
The pictures on the website do not do the view justice. BEAUTIFUL view! The property was nice, well kept, and the owner was very friendly. The apartment was well furnished it even had a dart board, playing cards, DVD's, and much more. I would absolutely stay again.
We try to stay here every year perfect for 2 adults and 1 teen.

About the host
Hosted by Heather and Christian Fox
We have been enjoying the outdoors and the town of Van Buren, Missouri for years. We are excited to continue the tradition of the previous owners of renting the apartment to others so that they, too, can enjoy all that the Ozark National Scenic Riverways area has to offer.
Why they chose this property
We feel very fortunate that the former owners retired to another part of the country just at the right time for our family. After spending many years in and around Van Buren, we are excited to be a part of this community and continue to enjoy the river, the hiking, the fishing, and more for years to come.
What makes this property unique
The view here is spectacular and the location cannot be beat. We are close to amenities yet are more secluded than a hotel. With the full kitchen and outdoor grill, guests can make themselves at home.
