We will be back!

This little wagon was perfect for our weekend away in Oark. Kris even gave us SPOT on directions for some trails to ride. It had everything we needed and is the cutest!! We didn’t spend a ton of time inside but the tv/internet worked great.

Weekend Getaway

My wife and I had a great weekend away. We took the jeep out on the trails for the day and headed back to our awesome little stay at the covered wagon. We recommend bringing a comforter or sleeping bag. It’s easier to cool the place than warm it. It was clean and cozy! It was so nice to take a hot shower after a day full of chasing waterfalls. It’s not far from Bryd’s Adventure area where we enjoyed a delicious steak dinner and the Oark Cafe where we had a great breakfast before heading back to reality.

Perfect style of camping

It was just what we needed to escape the busyness of life and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature. We splashed in the river, watched animals playing and chased crawdads. The stagecoach was a fun upgrade to old school camping.

Such a fun place to stay!

A friend and I met at the wagon and we’re amazed that it had as much room inside as it did! It has a comfortable bed, sitting area and a full bathroom. We sat outside around a fire and caught up, and just enjoyed the peace and quiet. It was a great weekend in a cozy wagon!

It was a beautiful area and a great experience. The wagon was inviting and clean. We were fortunate enough to see lots of stars before it got cloudy. Needs outdoor lighting. Ensure you drive a vehicle that is a truck or SUV to be able to get up the driveway when leaving.

Relaxing and Comfortable Glamping Getaway

If you’re looking for a laidback weekend in the Ozarks including everything from campfires, fishing in the mulberry river, stargazing so clear you can see the Milky Way, but also having a comfortable bed and full size private shower available?? This is your spot. Very clean, very private, very peaceful. Great place for a romantic weekend getaway for two.

Wagon Day

The covered wagon was super cute. There was plenty of space and everything was comfortable. Nice little walk to river, beautiful place to stroll. Too cold during our trip to dip toes in the water. Short. nice drive from I 40. Ours was just a stop on our way through but this is a great place to spend time.

Gorgeous and unique!

This was a gorgeous and unique experience in the covered wagon! The hosts did a wonderful job clearly communicating what was already stocked in the cabin versus what we needed to bring so there was no confusion and we were well prepared. The scenery was beautiful and the Oark Cafe and Mountainview Bistro were right down the road. Quick easy access for riding our sxs. Even with limited time for our quick weekend we were able to have a great memorable adventure!

The wagon is outstanding

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the wagon! The instructions regarding what is and isn't included were spot on. So be sure you read the instructions sent and bring your own linens....bed and bath. The cell service is almost non-existent but the wifi does the trick. We brought wood from the house and enjoyed an excellent fire. Overall, we will definitely stay again when in the area!

This is by far one of the nicest properties we have stayed at! Very very clean and I have high standards! Love how you can access the water! The owner was easy to communicate with and even allowed some special requests. I love supporting these small businesses especially when you can tell they are making an obvious effort for their guests!

This is the cutest little wagon! Beautiful location and far enough from civilization but close enough to the sweet little Oark cafe. However, the WiFi signal was terrible, the water in the shower was *cold*, and having to bring my own sheets and towels was a big pain. While my daughter and I enjoyed our stay, going camping would’ve been just as fun, and a great deal cheaper.
Beautiful view from the property.
