8 / 10Excellent·Apr 2026
Its a bit dated in style but was definably bigger than I thought it was going to be. It fit my party of 14 with plenty of room.
8 / 10Excellent·Nov 2025
Good location. Exactly what we needed to stay and hunt in the area. There were 11 guys and 3 girls to hunt for 10 days. Plenty of space and beds to accommodate. We had a few issues that the host resolved very quickly. The kitchen could use a few more pots and pans and a good cleaning in the drawers this time of year. Overall we were very happy with the accessibility and space. We would return.

Property is well worth the money we paid. Family friendly Probably the only thing I could say was that there wasn’t a trash can in the kitchen
6 / 10Average·Nov 2024
Stayed here with 6 people for a Mizzou football game. Was definitely a different retro-feeling space, eclectic with the attached buildings but worked for what we needed it to. Had a little communication mishap with the cleaning person and our early arrival, but the host Tim was easy to & quick to communicate. Distance didn't feel far from Mizzou where we drove mostly, located very close off the highway. We enjoyed going to Artichoke Annie's during our stay. Outdated and some bedrooms/bathrooms need some replacements/maintenance but like I said, worked with what we needed for a football weekend with a bigger group.
