Eagle's Nest Cabin - Cozy cabin with AMAZING view!

AshleyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Karla’s place was the perfect getaway for my friend and me, as we each had our own bedrooms and bathrooms (half bath upstairs, full bath downstairs) and plenty of space as two overpackers :) The view is INCREDIBLE and we absolutely loved taking in the wildflowers and birds - we even got to see a gorgeous black bear down by the tree line! We stayed 4 nights and this was the perfect place to base out of for floating the Buffalo, hiking Hemmed in Hollow and Hawksbill Crag and exploring the Lost Valley, Jasper and Ponca in spring! Couldn’t have asked for a better location and both AC units were nice and cold at night, washer / dryer and full kitchen made us feel right at home! Will be recommending this place to everyone I know - thanks so much for a great week! Can’t wait to go back!

Misty Hollow Hideaway near the Buffalo River, AR

TamiRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Cay was very responsive. Her place was tucked back in some pine trees with no hidden highways. Noise free. Nothing misleading about her description. Exactly what we wanted. Literally 8 minutes from the Buffalo River, which is a must to kayak for the most spectacular scenery. Beds were comfortable and clean ( NOT made of those cheap uncomfortable iron frames). we would definitely stay here again if ever in this area. Thanks Cay. Your place is a slice of heaven.

Natural Waterfall @ Dad’s Cabin Dennard

CaraleeRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Oh my goodness!! The sound, the nature, the waterfall, the wooded scenery has action all around in every view, lots of space around to hike and explore. My pup and I spent an afternoon exploring. The beds were soft and the place was very clean. The purpose of this trip for my daughters and I was appreciated by Elisabeth. She had personally selected a gift for both of my girls. My girls loved the peace they experienced as well! I would LOVE to come back with my husband or a couple of my best gal pals! IT IS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!

Sobe's-Upon-Sylamore ~Creek Cabin

TRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful cabin! The setting is peaceful and scenic, just a short walk to a crystal clear creek, perfect for fishing and swimming. The cabin itself was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable. We especially loved spending time on the deck each day, enjoying our morning coffee, watching the sunsets, spotting wildlife, and just soaking in the tranquility. The location is ideal, close to trails, parks, and town. Mountain View had everything we needed and more. We were warmly welcomed by friendly locals and even got to enjoy some hometown bluegrass jams in the park with ice cream in hand. It was a perfect place to reconnect and make up for lost time with my best friend and partner.

Country Mountain Cabin

HaleighRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We stayed here for a weekend getaway for my husband’s birthday, and it was truly phenomenal! From the start, we walked in to a sweet handwritten note and birthday decor, which we’ve never experienced in any of our Airbnb stays. Tracy and John were beyond thoughtful in providing every single thing that we could need. The cabin itself was so cozy and peaceful and we immediately felt at home. Due to the crazy weather that weekend we unfortunately didn’t get to take the tour, but we will absolutely be planning a trip back to experience it!! This was by far one of our favorite Airbnb stays!

Your guide to Ozark Mountains

All About Ozark Mountains

The Ozark Mountains stretch across nearly 50,000 square miles of land from southeastern Missouri to northwestern Arkansas. Oak and hickory forests cover the mountain range, brimming with lush green vegetation and flowering dogwood trees. The core of the Ozark Mountains is set within the Ozark National Forest, where hikes like the Whitaker Point Trail pass by waterfalls draped with ferns, ending with a stunning lookout point of the valley below. Freshwater springs from the mountains feed into the Jack Fork and Current Rivers in southern Missouri, combining at a narrow canyon. This protected area makes up the 135-mile Ozark National Scenic Riverways, where you can swim and explore the clear waters by canoe or kayak.

Small towns in the Ozark Mountains hover the border between Arkansas and Missouri, where historic sites like the Shiloh Museum of Ozark History and the Saunders Museum shed light on the Ozark’s heritage. Between the two museums, you can see thousands of relics including prehistoric animal exhibits and weapons and tools used by the area’s first explorers. In contrast, you will find mixed media art displays packed into the Crystal Bridges Contemporary Museum of American Art, a modern, glass building at the foothills of the Ozark Mountains that is surrounded by thick forest brush and outdoor sculptures.

The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Ozark Mountains

You can expect rain and cloudy skies throughout the year in the Ozark Mountains. The summer is hot and the rainiest season. One of the best ways to escape the muggy heat is swimming at natural pools in the Ozark National Forest, like Falling Water Falls, where cascades flow into a deep swimming hole. Winter weather is usually cold and gloomy. However, the Ozark Mountains Music Festival takes place in January. The live music event features bluegrass, folk, and Americana artists from across the United States, performing in northwestern Arkansas’ section of the Ozarks.

Fall weather is crisp and comfortable. In central Missouri’s section of the Ozark Mountains, you can see the oak trees that surround the Lake of the Ozarks alternate between green, yellow, and red hues this time of year. Spring is warm and cloudy with patches of colorful wildflowers spread across the forest, including rare blue violets and the native Ozark wild crocus flower. Branson hosts the Branson Music Festival this time of year, featuring live folk and country music set amid the backdrop of the Ozark Mountains.

Top things to do in Ozark Mountains

Buffalo National River

An hour-long drive from southeastern Missouri or northwestern Arkansas, the Buffalo National River is set between towering rock bluffs topped with lush green trees. You can rent a canoe or kayak on-site to explore the 135-mile river or hike the serene half-mile River Overlook Trail for panoramic views of the Buffalo River from above.

Ancient Ozark Natural History Museum

About 30 minutes south of Branson, the Ancient Ozark History Museum houses thousands of artifacts and remains from prehistoric animals that used to roam the Ozarks, including giant sloths and mammoths. Artifacts from the first settlers of the Ozark Mountains are also on display here, including arrowheads, wagons, and clothes worn by the earliest native settlers.

Dogwood Canyon Nature Park

Located a half-hour between Branson, Missouri and Eureka Springs, Arkansas, the 10,000-acre Dogwood Canyon Nature Park sits near the border of both states. On the six-mile Dogwood Canyon Trail, you can explore the park’s flowing waterfalls and lush dogwood trees by rental bike or on foot, while looking out for local wildlife like bison, elk, and deer.
