Pet Rules:

*Please do not allow your dog to bark excessively or to roam onto neighboring properties. Many of our homes are located near residential neighborhoods, and we must respect the comfort and privacy of those residents. Complaints may lead to eviction without refund.
*Please do not allow dogs on furniture or beds. It is also helpful to bring something (bed, blanket, etc.) on which you know your pet will be comfortable sleeping. Extra cleaning fees will be charged for furniture, blankets, comforters, etc. that have pet hair left behind.

    The cabin was small and cozy, yet felt spacious all at the same time. We had a great getaway weekend and would highly recommend Emily's place.

    We had the loveliest long weekend at The Back Porch. Less one tiny cobweb, the house was immaculate, and the view to die for. Even though there are neighboring properties, you feel completely secluded. The property owner was very responsive. We did have to have a maintenance guy come out to deliver dry fire wood, as it had rained, and replace batteries in a chirping smoke detector and he was very kind and helpful. The listing goes over what is included in the starter pack of paper towels, dishwasher detergent, etc., so pay attention to that. If you're eating meals in, be prepared to run the dishwasher every day. Hopefully, we'll be back!

    This A-frame home was perfect for my husband and 15 year old! It was everything it looks like in the photos and as described. We found it very clean and comfortable. The view from the back of the house/porch/loft is spectacular. The check-in process was also extremely simple! Emily, our hostess, was very prompt and helpful with her responses when I reached out to her. Her instructions to the cabin were also accurate and most helpful! The house is located in a quiet, beautiful setting, but access to “town” is quite easy. If you are looking for a beautiful, peaceful place to get away with lots of natural lighting, this place is for you!!! My family had such a great experience here and would definitely stay here again!!!

    We didn’t want to leave! Everything was perfect. The cabin was super clean, bright and airy, but cozy at the same time; and of course, beautifully decorated. Emily provides all the necessities and then some, which I love because I always forget those things. The whole aesthetic is honestly, just such a vibe and there’s a gorgeous view from the back porch, perfect for watching the sunrise. Even though we were maybe 10 minutes from town it felt like we were completely away from it all. The ‘neighborhood’ (there’s a couple homes near by) was super quiet, and felt very safe. Will definitely be staying here again! Emily knows what she’s doing!!

    This property is adorable! It's immaculately clean and has incredible views of the Ozarks. Though we did not have children with us, if you do, the ladder to the upper bedroom would be quite a treat. We were only there for one night, but hope to return again. Many thanks to Emily for being such a great host. She communicated promptly and clearly.
