What's nearby

  • Stopped for a picnic lunch at Alley Springs in Eminence Missouri, then decided to walk the dog for a bit. This place is amazing. There's a couple of short hiking trails, one about a mile long (around the spring) and the other 1.5 mi in the other direction. The water is crystal clear and everywhere you look is gorgeous.

Cozy and clean

We were in town for a wedding and wanted a unique place to stay. This place fit the bill. Very short drive to Big Spring and the Current River. We really enjoyed watching the hummingbirds on the property. We were well taken care of and all our needs were met. Also a beautiful view! I wouldn’t mind staying here again.

We arrived later than expected and missed the driveway. I messaged Heather at 11 pm and she quickly called me and was going to walk to the end of the drive to help us get to where we needed to be. We got there and situated, she was super sweet. I messaged her the next day to ask a question and she responded quickly to answer me. We enjoyed every minute there, and her apartment, the outside and scenery was beautiful. I will be booking to stay here again.

Awesome Destination

Our 2nd time around for this magnificent place. The view is incredible and words do not do it Justice. The apartment has everything you need if you just want to hang there, or some nice local places to dine out as well. Visiting surrounding towns within a half hour of Van Buren is very doable and Big Spring is amazing. We WILL be back!!

Beautiful place

We had a wonderful time staying here. The views were amazing. It was so relaxing and peaceful to sit outside and look out at the view. The place had everything we could ever need and more. We picked this place mainly because it was dog friendly and we couldn’t have been happier. For a place that allows dogs I couldn’t find evidence of another dog being there. The place was very clean. Definitely would come back again!

Breathtaking View

The rental is clean and comfortable, close to everything the small town of Van Buren, MO has to offer including access to Current River and Big Spring Park. The view from the front of the rental is just so amazing, words cannot describe it. I highly recommend this one.

Gem Overlooking VB, Current River in the Distance

Great spot for a scenic view overlooking the small town of Van Buren along along with section of the beautiful Current River and the surrounding Ozarks hills. The cabin has plenty of space with all the comforts and quick access Big Spring and town. You can snap a picture of groundhog and the humming birds when they show to feed. This cabin in located along Skyline Drive which provides a super place for anyone who wants to take a jog or walk. Highly recommend this cabin for your next trip to the Van Buren - Big Spring - Ozark Scenic Riverways area.

Big Springs

This property was in a great location to Big Springs and Van Buren. It also, had a wonderful view from the patio, kitchen, living room and bedroom. In the morning there are thin clouds over the woods and it looks like your sittin above the clouds.

Loved our stay. Super cute, close to everything we wanted to do, yet out far enough for that country feel. Spectacular view of the mountains and Current River. Will stay here again and will recommend to others.
