Great getaway spot
We booked this cottage for our float trip. It was a little drive to the river, but we couldn't have asked for better accommodations. Sarah was great with communication. We will definitely have to do this again.

Highly Recommend!!
The house is so cute, and immaculate. The kitchen is roomy and the host provides some essentials. The beds are very comfortable and the a/c works great. The location is close enough for day trips to the Current and Jacks Fork rivers for floating or swimming. The host is quick to respond. Love the checkout process. We will be back.

Perfect weekend getaway for float trip
We loved the space, very clean and comfortable beds! Six of us came down for a float trip from Cedar Grove to Akers Ferry and this was the perfect spot for non-campers. Everything was super clean and the kitchen was fully stocked with cookware so we were easily able to make our own meals. Would definitely return!

Sweet Spot!
Five of us traveled to Salem from St. louis surrounding areas to celebrate a heavenly birthday and cancer surgery success with a float trip. We typically stay in hotels outside of Salem but opted for this rental instead and we were not disappointed. This sweet little spot was unexpectedly well stocked, super clean, the beds were so comfy and it truly felt like being at home. The backyard was a bonus for our fur babies. Sarah was quick to respond to my inquiry before booking and was beyond accommodating. Don't hesitate to book, you will love it too!

Perfect Place to Stay!
We were in Missouri for 5 nights visiting family and the Simply Salem Cottage was absolutely the perfect place to stay. It was super clean, had a well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and a great fenced in back yard for the dogs. It was very hot when we visited so the AC was greatly appreciated. Sarah's response time to our inquires was immediate. We will definitely be looking to stay again next time we come back to Salem!

Restorative Quaint Cottage
Sarah and her family have provided a level of hospitality we've not experienced before with other VRBO stays. Consideration for their clients stay has been well thought through. Chilled water, snacks, storage bags, plastic wrap, tea coffee, creamer. Fully stocked kitchen. Everything was clean, SPOTLESS! Soft White Hotel grade linens, Plush towels. House was visually pleasing as well. Sarah has an eye for decorating. Typically first night I struggle to sleep. Bed, bedding very comfortable. House is quite deceiving from the outside, very spacious, layout insures privacy for all occupants. Neighborhood was quite. We would absolutely stay again.
