Wonderful vacation place.

The property and decor was magazine worthy . Great for a family trip. Everyone really enjoyed our stay, beds were wonderful. Would have liked a gas grill instead of charcoal and a fire pit would make this rental hard to beat! We may go back in the fall.

Exactly what we needed!

The property was amazing. We had 7 people and it never felt crowded. The beds were so comfortable, we slept great. And the enclosed patio was perfect for dinner and games! Plus the location is gorgeous and close to everything we needed. We forgot some things and Doordash saved us within 30 minutes (twice, once at 10pm), and we were 5 minutes away from All American Floats. All we can think of improvement wise is adding more trash bags, dishwasher pods for multiple nights stays, and steak knives. We will definitely be returning!

It was a very pleasant stay. We enjoyed the cabin. If you are looking for a river access the property has none. Tho there is a beautiful creek in the back of the property you can enjoy. if you have someone with you that has a high risk in falling you dont want to rent this cause there are a lot of steps that they need to navigate around especialy in the front of the doors. Other than that is is a very cozy and comfortable cabin and you'll love their screened patio area to party and play parlor games if you wish to.

Great for float trips

We had an amazing time at this little property in the outside of tahlequah! Though we had some issues with the hot water, the host was able to assist us and communicated efficiently. This is a beautiful property!

I can’t begin to express what a wonderful pleasure our stay was. From the beautiful setting, to the ample room, only eclipsed by the amazing hospitality this is a property I’d recommend highly to someone looking to get away while still being minutes from convenient options.

Amazing Experience!!

Family of 19 had planned a float trip at War Eagle resort. Some camped and some prefer a modern air conditioned place to sleep. I rented this property as my choice and a place to keep some of the younger kids or over flow sleepers. This was an amazing choice. Big comfy beds in both rooms. An amazing host. A very cozy

Quiet with great indoor & outdoor entertaining spaces.

Property is within the perfect distance of both the Illinois River (5 minutes from All-American floats & 15 minutes from Eagle Bluff) and Tahlequah (10 minutes) to downtown. Had all of the necessary utensils, pots, pans, and even a gas grill which was absolutely needed after a long day of floating. Perfect outdoor space with a TV and 2 ceiling fans that was covered and screened in along with a smaller one which was perfect for morning coffee. Quite the gem! Would recommend staying again.
