Cute Ozark Mountain cabin in the woods: a quiet escape or adventurous exploring

The Ozark Hideaway is the perfect place for a cozy, quiet getaway. It’s secluded location is 8 miles from quaint Gainesville, MO, home of Hootin-n-Hollerin, in Ozark County on a well-maintained gravel road. Abundant wildlife abounds throughout the 90 wooded acres, and white-tailed deer can often be seen grazing nearby. You can enjoy the well-marked hiking trails and, if you are lucky and rains have come, relax by the natural waterfall. Either way, you are sure to be amazed at the unusual, volcanic-like rock formations found in that area. If you are the more adventurous type, you may choose to venture off the trails and explore the wooded area on your own. Or, you may want to visit some of the other attractions in the area, such as the grist mills, Caney Mountain Refuge, or some of the numerous lakes, rivers and streams for seasonal adventures in floating, fishing, swimming, or boating.
If you aren’t looking for adventure but just want to rest, relax, and rejuvenate, you have definitely come to the right place. The quiet, peaceful serenity of Ozark Hideaway is hard to describe. You really must experience it for yourself. The views are breathtaking; the stars are brilliant; the air is clean; the quiet is calming. The cabin itself is most often described by our guests as “so cute, cozy, and homey”. The living room offers a gas fireplace/stove, comfortable seating, and a 50" flatscreen tv on antenna with Blue Ray DVD player. You will find a fully equipped kitchen with microwave, stove, refrigerator, and plenty of dishes, appliances and cookware. A beautifully furnished bedroom with queen bed and antique dresser has a sliding door onto the covered porch and ample windows to enjoy the wooded view and gorgeous sunsets. Additional sleeping space is provided by a single bed in the loft area. The spacious bathroom has a walk-in shower, as well as a hidden washer and dryer. A fire pit is available for cozy campfires and roasting hot dogs, as well as a chiminea to warm you on the back porch.
This delightful cabin in a picturesque setting is sure to be a favorite getaway for you.

Beautiful Fall Trip
A perfect, quiet, well furnished place with lovely host and welcoming committee of pets! Beautiful fall colors right out the back door. Close enough to grand gulf state park, close to Caney Mt. Conservation area (very pretty!) and Byrant Creek St. Park (also beautiful!). Spent a 3 day fall break trip there and it was a good choice. Highly recommend it!

Third Time's Still The Charm
Another wonderful visit to Ozark Hideaway - our 3rd in just over a year. As usual, everything was set up perfectly and even some improvements were made (love the new cookware). Our host is the most dedicated one you'll find that cares about your experience and strives to ensure your time there is both memorable and enjoyable.

We had a great time!
The cabin was very clean and decorated for Christmas! We enjoyed hiking on the well marked trails and enjoyed the serenity of the property. We used the grill and had a small fire in the chiminea. Overall a very relaxing weekend. Also Anne is a great host and even baked us some delicious pumpkin muffins and left a Christmas card. Thank you Anne!

Much needed time!
I only gave the accuracy of online posting 4 stars because there has been a change! The futon has been replaced with a new, very comfy couch! Great for naps (we took several 😉). The only other thing I would note is that the fridge is on the small side. We were staying 8 days which is longer than most stay so I’m sure most of the time it is completely sufficient. The trails were fabulous. The cabin cozy and comfy. The attention to detail is amazing. Night lights, flashlights, labeling of light switches, etc. Small things that made such a difference! Overall we had an amazingly quiet, calm and much needed week! Thanks!!!

If I could rate this any higher, I would. Five stars isn’t enough. From the moment we walked in until we left, I was so happy with our choice of where to stay in the Ozarks. If you want a peaceful stay in the country, you will love this rental.

A Great Getaway
This space was exactly what we were looking for when it came to our getaway vacation! It was peaceful and serene, with lovely views. Anne was very kind to meet with, though we didn't run into each other very often. They were sure to help us out if we needed anything, but everything was smooth! Would definitely stay again in the future. And it was so great to be able to bring our dog along to enjoy the stay as well.

Modern rustic
I stayed at the cabin for a week while on a genealogy expedition. I chose the cabin because I wanted the comfort of a home rather than a hotel room. I wasn't disappoint. Charlotte and Anne were gracious hosts who live next to the cabin and are right there if you need anything. The cabin was very clean and had all the amenities I needed. The location of the cabin is stellar. I would have my coffee on the back patio and the only thing you will hear is the call of Doves or Whippoorwills. You can also watch the squirrels chasing each other in the trees. I slept at night like I was in my own bed. I only had time to take one short hike down to the waterfall. The woods are beautiful. But be sure to look down as you hike along, there are many unusual rocks to look at to include geodes. I give Ozark Hideaway Cabin 5 stars!

I will echo all previous reviewers input and can't really improve on those. The hosts have thought of everything. I'll say the calm and peace Ozark Hideaway brings is unlike anything we've experienced. This place will always have a special spot in our hearts. We will be back. Thank you so much for sharing.

Absolutely beautiful area and beautiful property! The trails were well marked and wide. The multiple trails were great for exploring and we enjoyed walking all of them. The waterfall is a must see! Spring is the best time to see it flowing. Very peaceful stay overall. The hosts were definitely one of our favorite parts of staying here. We really enjoyed visiting with them and getting to know them. We would definitely recommend staying here and hope that we get to again someday!

Could not ask for a nicer place to stay. Everything was as it was listed but more! Check-in process was painless, super clean, everything from the TV to HVAC, internet, EVERYTHING was perfectly explained in simple ,practical instructions. If you are looking for a place that you can refresh and relax and never as much hear a car....peace and quite it what you will get. so comfortable, the mattress was incredible, I cant say enough about my stay here.

Lovely, Private Getaway in the Woods
The hosts were very nice. They offer a contactless check-in process, but are readily available if you need anything. They left a welcome basket with a birthday card and home made muffins for me and dog biscuits for my pups. When one of my pups managed to damage himself, the hosts provided the contact info for their vet who offers emergency services in the nearby town of Gainesville. The property really is in the woods - county gravel roads off long, winding, narrow paved roads. As a Los Angeles native, I would not be comfortable driving those roads in during wintry/icy/snowy weather. But outside of that, it does feel like you're going to the middle of nowhere - which is what I was hoping for. The cabin is within site of the main house, so you are not entirely isolated, but the hosts do not invade your space or bother you - though they are very friendly when you do bump into them on property. There is a resident cat who is the official greeter of the property. He will walk right up to you and insist on head-butts and scratches as he climbs into your lap and purrs away. The trails are lovely, though I would caution that they lean a lot closer to hiking than nature trails. Some of the hills are easily a 10%+ grade, with some areas that are closer to 30% (for very short stretches). The hosts provide 2 walking sticks which I found very helpful for maintaining balance going down the hills of the trail, and for balance and assist going up the steeper hills. The cabin was clean and had everything I needed. But you are in the woods. You will have some bugs sharing your residence despite the hosts spraying the property regularly. But that's part of the adventure of staying in the woods. I highly recommend the Ozark Hideaway and would stay here again for sure - though maybe in the fall when we're not in the middle of a massive heat wave.
