The cabin was clean and had all of the basics we needed to stow away for the weekend. The property was easy to find and the host was a good communicator. Shower pressure was good, bed was comfortable, and hot tub was hot and clean! We brought our dog and there was plenty of space to run around and sniff. We had no issues and would stay here again!

The cabin was everything that we needed. We were in search of relaxation, peace, and calm from the storm(s) of life. This cabin gave us that and so much more. My sweetheart and I were able to reconnect and connect in new, unimaginable ways, paving the way for a fresher and stronger relationship. We have already made the determination that we will do business with Melissa in the near future. She was professional, kind, and hospitable.

This little cabin was just right for the two of us. We were traveling during the day and staying at the cabin at night. The sunsets were beautiful. The cabin was clean and the bed was comfortable. It was very quiet at night. The host was very accommodating and responsive to texts. We had a good experience at the Sugar Shack.

Perfect Weekend Getaway!

The Little Sugar Shack was a perfect little weekend retreat for my husband and I! It was perfectly clean, the bed was comfy and Melissa made sure we had everything we needed to be comfortable for our weekend. The surroundings are beautiful and so quiet and peaceful! And the hot tub was amazing, located just behind the cabin. Melissa is an outstanding hostess, top notch! I can’t say enough about her hospitality. We will be back!! And FYI - kayak rental is available on the property!

The Incredible Sugar Shack

The Sugar Shack was the absolute perfect little couples retreat that I was hoping it would be. The Shack is beautiful, perfectly clean, surprisingly spacious, and even better than the listing makes it out to be. This is the perfect little getaway for someone looking to be on their own or with nature. I cannot reccomend this place enough. And the host is absolutely amazing. Add onto this a very nice hottub and incredible sunset views, and the Sugar Shack of Southwest Missouri is worth every single penny.
