The home is exactly as listed and a perfect spot for our family to stay while we were in town visiting our Mizzou student and attending a football game. I’d love to visit again for a full weekend stay to relax and enjoy a peaceful, quiet retreat away from home.
We stayed during a deer hunting trip. This place was located far enough outside Columbia proper that we never felt like we left the woods even after hunting. I would definitely book again if we choose to come hunt this area again.
A bit challenging to find, but beautiful. The location is great, the facilities were very nice, easy to use. Lots of wildlife (deer and turkeys). Very comfortable and easy to use. I would definitely stay there again.
Had a great stay over the weekend. The house is located quite off the grid and completely surrounded by nature. Had a great weekend! The balcony on the second floor helped me find silence and unwind 10/10 would stay again!
