Kid’s Playset | Outdoor Games | Fire Pit | Hot Tub
Tucked beneath a canopy of towering trees, While Away Lodge is a peaceful retreat packed with activities and charm. From the moment you arrive, the cozy cabin vibes and beautiful forest views invite you to slow down and unwind. Sip coffee on the front porch rocking chairs, or head to the screened-in back porch for a quiet moment without the buzz of mosquitos. Whether you’re gathering with family or reconnecting with friends, this cabin is designed for comfort, relaxation, and fun.
Step into the backyard and you’ll find an outdoor space made for making memories. Roast marshmallows around the fire pit, soak in the hot tub under the covered gazebo, or cheer on a friendly game of cornhole or horseshoes. The kids will love the playset, and there’s even a redneck golf set and outdoor dominoes for a little extra fun. With plenty of open yard space, it’s easy to toss a football or let the little ones run wild while the adults kick back and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
Located just minutes from the restaurants, shops, and natural attractions of Hochatown and Beavers Bend State Park, While Away Lodge offers the best of both worlds—seclusion when you want it, and adventure when you’re ready to explore. Whether you spend your days hiking, boating, or simply relaxing at the cabin, this warm and welcoming lodge makes every moment of your Broken Bow getaway feel like time well spent.

★ EV CHARGER INFO ★ The best option for EV charging is at the Choctaw Casino, which offers multiple fast charging stations. Please note this property does NOT have an EV Charger.
★ NOISE ORDINANCE ★ We kindly ask you to treat our cabin as your own to preserve its pristine condition for future guests and your return visits. Please respect the community noise ordinance from 10 PM to 10 AM. Always be respectful of our community and be good neighbors.
★ A NOTE ON OUR LOCAL NEIGHBORS ★ We are thrilled to share our slice of nature with you! Because this home is nestled in the heart of the woods, please keep in mind that you are visiting a thriving ecosystem. *** Wildlife: It is common to see deer, turkeys, and squirrels. Occasionally, larger wildlife like raccoons may pass through. Please keep all food indoors and dispose of trash in the secured bins provided. *** The "Bug" Factor: We maintain a professional pest control schedule; however, the occasional spider, beetle, ladybug, wasp, or "woodland friend" may find their way inside, especially during rain or seasonal changes. *** Pro Tip: Keeping doors and screens closed will help keep the great outdoors exactly where it belongs—outdoors!
We encourage you to have a great time, but respect the cabin and neighboring cabins. Sounds travel very far in the remote areas of the forest.

We love the location and how cleanliness it was inside the cabin. The cabin was equipped with everything we needed from cooking to games for the little ones. We will definitely book again.
The cabin wasn’t too far off the road. It was centrally located to all the activities we enjoyed. The surrounding neighbors were quiet. TreeLine responded quickly to any questions I had.

Great Stay!
My family and I had a great weekend staying at the While Away Lodge. It was very clean and well kept and had plenty to do for the whole family from the 2 year olds to the adults. Never a dull moment. Thanks for the stay!
This was a wonderful rental. The kitchen had more supplied than expected and we needed them. The outdoor space was perfect. My only critic is that the double beds aren’t ideal for big teens or adults and you need at least two glass wine glasses!
The cabin was wonderful. We had a great time sitting around the fire and playing games.

Perfect Get Away for the Eclipse
I could not be happier with the While Away Lodge! Our trip was so wonderfully relaxing. This little gem is tucked away and quiet, but at the same time close to some fun eating stops. The lodge is absolutely adorable with everything we needed and more. You will not regret booking the While Away Lodge for your next trip!
Zip line, lake time, shopping, fishing, smores, play time on the swings and eating lots of eating, fun time

16 of us spent the weekend at Grand Lux cabin - the cabin was exactly what was advertised, owners allowed us to upgrade cabins when cabin we had rented became unavailable. Great experience overall ! Thank You
The location was great, had everything we needed, great property just needs deep cleaning, hot tub was nice, I do prefer it on the deck. It was awesome time

The only thing is when we left the house during the day the air turned up and it was hot in the house which made it hot up stairs and it took the rest of the day to cool off but it was still warm upstairs

The cabin was wonderful very spacious. Only thing i needed to purchase was a tea pitcher, which i left there for future guest. Very nice stay, and the deer are so friendly. The only bad thing was the traffic getting back to cabin from town. Oklahoma really needs to put 4 lane highway in out there. 10 miles and it took us at least hour.

This cabin is a great stay for a family! We fit 6 family members and 5 dogs comfortably. This cabin has lots of activities to do at the house! There were many board games to choose from, corn hole, the hot tub & the outdoor fire pit. This was the first family vacation together and we wanted to include our dogs (they are the family too!). I am extremely grateful to Treeline Vacation Rentals for allowing us to bring our dogs. We had a lot of trouble finding a property that could accommodate for our dogs and wasn’t sure the vacation would happen. I am beyond thankful for Craig for making the accommodations so we could bring our fur babies. We had an amazing week at While Away Lodge and can’t wait to return! I would highly recommend While Away Lodge or any Treeline Vacation Rental Properties!
We enjoyed this cabin for our family Christmas. It had a play area outside along with a fire pit and a hot tub. The weather did not permit for us to use all of that during all of our stay but it was all there and I would definitely stay there again it had all the kitchen amenities I could’ve wanted They even had games for us to play. We had a great time. My only drawback from this cabin was I asked beforehand if it would have a Christmas tree up because this again was gonna be our Christmas get together so I wanted to make sure it would have a tree. If not, I needed to bring one well they assured me that it would and so I was very upset when I got there and it didn’t however, I reached out to Craig And he did an amazing job of making it right and I appreciate that so much it made our Christmas get together a lot better and of course we had kids so that was the importance of being decorated for Christmas when you go somewhere this time of year then you really want it to be decorated Craig was available and answered all of my questions in a very timely manner. I would definitely recommend him or any of his rental properties to any of my friends. He was so helpful and that’s what helps make our stay so much better is when there’s someone there that you can talk to and that will help you if you need It
