About this property

The Ozark Hideaway is the perfect place for a cozy, quiet getaway. It’s secluded location is 8 miles from quaint Gainesville, MO, home of Hootin-n-Hollerin, in Ozark County on a well-maintained gravel road. Abundant wildlife abounds throughout the 90 wooded acres, and white-tailed deer can often be seen grazing nearby. You can enjoy the well-marked hiking trails and, if you are lucky and rains have come, relax by the natural waterfall. Either way, you are sure to be amazed at the unusual, volcanic-like rock formations found in that area. If you are the more adventurous type, you may choose to venture off the trails and explore the wooded area on your own. Or, you may want to visit some of the other attractions in the area, such as the grist mills, Caney Mountain Refuge, or some of the numerous lakes, rivers and streams for seasonal adventures in floating, fishing, swimming, or boating.
If you aren’t looking for adventure but just want to rest, relax, and rejuvenate, you have definitely come to the right place. The quiet, peaceful serenity of Ozark Hideaway is hard to describe. You really must experience it for yourself. The views are breathtaking; the stars are brilliant; the air is clean; the quiet is calming. The cabin itself is most often described by our guests as “so cute, cozy, and homey”. The living room offers a gas fireplace/stove, comfortable seating, and a 50" flatscreen tv on antenna with Blue Ray DVD player. You will find a fully equipped kitchen with microwave, stove, refrigerator, and plenty of dishes, appliances and cookware. A beautifully furnished bedroom with queen bed and antique dresser has a sliding door onto the covered porch and ample windows to enjoy the wooded view and gorgeous sunsets. Additional sleeping space is provided by a single bed in the loft area. The spacious bathroom has a walk-in shower, as well as a hidden washer and dryer. A fire pit is available for cozy campfires and roasting hot dogs, as well as a chiminea to warm you on the back porch.
This delightful cabin in a picturesque setting is sure to be a favorite getaway for you.

We had a great time!

The cabin was very clean and decorated for Christmas! We enjoyed hiking on the well marked trails and enjoyed the serenity of the property. We used the grill and had a small fire in the chiminea. Overall a very relaxing weekend. Also Anne is a great host and even baked us some delicious pumpkin muffins and left a Christmas card. Thank you Anne!

Much needed time!

I only gave the accuracy of online posting 4 stars because there has been a change! The futon has been replaced with a new, very comfy couch! Great for naps (we took several 😉). The only other thing I would note is that the fridge is on the small side. We were staying 8 days which is longer than most stay so I’m sure most of the time it is completely sufficient. The trails were fabulous. The cabin cozy and comfy. The attention to detail is amazing. Night lights, flashlights, labeling of light switches, etc. Small things that made such a difference! Overall we had an amazingly quiet, calm and much needed week! Thanks!!!

My Favorite Stay!

If I could rate this any higher, I would. Five stars isn’t enough. From the moment we walked in until we left, I was so happy with our choice of where to stay in the Ozarks. If you want a peaceful stay in the country, you will love this rental.

About the host

Hosted by F. Anne Kimbrough

Co-owned by 2 best friends, Charlotte & Anne. Charlotte is a retired school teacher with 2 children and 6 grandchildren. She was born & raised in Gainesville and returned to the area in 2010. She is loving being back in the country near her original homestead & family. Anne is a recently retired physical therapist who grew up mainly in Tulsa, OK, but has loved becoming a part of the amazing Ozarks.

Why they chose this property

Although off the beaten path, our recently renovated cabin offers a lovely and peaceful place to stay, yet is in close proximity to Bull Shoals and Norfork Lakes, the North Fork of the White River, Bryant Creek, Caney Mtn. Conservation area, & Devil's Backbone Wilderness. So, opportunities for fishing, boating, canoeing, kayaking, hiking, & hunting abound. Also, you can visit the 5 grist mills of Ozark County, including Hodgson Mill, the most photographed mill in MO. Or, if you are just wanting a quiet getaway, you will enjoy lounging on the covered back porch while soaking in the panoramic views of the beautiful Ozark Hills & watching for the white tailed deer & other wildlife to meander by. The 90 acres of wooded property also allows additional options for exploration & solitude. The owners are nearby and readily available if needed.

What makes this property unique

It is the breath-taking beauty and panoramic views of the Ozark hills, with the soothing sounds of only nature, that really attracts us to our property. Here, the fresh air and crystal clear waters are unmatched. The stars and constellations are brilliantly stunning, as we are able to view them without the hinderance of city lights. The solitude, peace, and quiet are good for the soul.
