The space
Sit on the front porch and drink your coffee watching the sun rise over the water making the most beautiful turquoise glow as far as you can see! One room cozy cabin with two queen size beds (one bed is a top bunk with a ladder to climb) Nice, clean outdoor restroom with composting toilet and amazing cedar outdoor shower house with hot water and a full view of the river! Outdoor spigot with fresh, potable water. Ice cold A/C or heat depending on season. Couch, small table with seating for two, small dry kitchen with storage, gas cook-top stove inside the cabin, small refrigerator and freezer. Outdoor sink with cold water for doing dishes or cleaning fish. Large front porch with seating. Several games to choose from for lazy nights in the cabin. Very large fire-pit (firewood available for purchase) with large, comfy Adirondack chairs. Outdoor picnic table with umbrella. The driveway for the cabin is 4x4 accessible if you're comfortable driving on very steep, narrow inclines with room to turn around at the top but there is room for one vehicle at the bottom of the road and then you can walk over to the cabin if you don't have 4x4. Our property is conveniently located a few minutes off I44 and minutes from Route 66. Because of the location you will be able to hear a slight sound of traffic in the background. There are several floating outfitters in the area that can set you up with a relaxing float of the beautiful Big Piney River. Sit and cool off in the river or relax next to a bonfire on the large sandbar across the river while the kids splash in the water. 10 minutes to Walmart or Fort Leonard Wood, 5 minutes to the nearest gas station and Dollar General, Uranus roadside attraction, mini golf and several kayaking outfitters.
Guest access
You will have access to the whole cabin and porch and all the areas at the top around the cabin. Outdoor shower, outdoor restroom, outdoor sink, fire pit and yard area. There is a path with some stone steps going down toward the road. From the road you can access any part of the river you would like. There is a small rock bar towards the I44 bridge a little ways past the cabin. We also own the large sand bar across the river that you are welcome to float or swim to and enjoy the afternoon swimming or picnicing. You can also walk down to the bridge and take a short tube float back to the cabin. The opposite direction from the bridge about a 1/2 mile down you will find a rope swing for cooling off. We also offer float trips with kayaks or jet boat rides followed by a several mile tube float, contact us for more information.

The neighborhood
The area around Piney Bend is a mix between full time residents and rentals. There are only a few properties down along the river and not a lot of traffic. In the summer and warmer months you may see more traffic from people fishing, kayaking and just enjoying the river. You can access the river from anywhere along Hartford Road. There's a couple small gravel bars you can walk or wade to. There's a nice area for fishing or swimming under the I44 bridge and you can even tube float from there back to Piney Bend. There's a little path in front of our RV site down to a little platform perfect for fishing or swimming. We also own a huge sandbar across the river. It's great for an afternoon swimming and picnicking. You can swim or kayak across. A little ways to the north there's a rope swing you can use as well.

Other things to note
**Things to Note** You will need 4x4 to drive all the way up to the cabin, otherwise you will have to park at the bottom of the access road and walk over to the cabin. (About 100 yards) We have 2 queen beds in this cabin but one is lofted and you will have to climb a ladder to access it.

About the host

My kids and I had a great stay in the cabin. It is small but has everything you need to stay cool and comfortable. Quiet, secluded, close river access. Lacy was extremely helpful and communicated with me quickly to coordinate our stay. Lacey helped us with kayaks and a shuttle up the river so we could float back to the cabin. So nice to end a day on the river at your cabin without having to do anything else to get there. We will definitely be back!
We had a great stay at the cabin! You definitely need 4WD to get up the hill. If you don't have 4WD, then the RV would maybe be a better option since it's located at the base of that same hill. The cabin sits above the road that runs next to the river. You can't really even see the cabin from the road, so you're really hidden, which is nice.
Very relaxing weekend. The space was set up perfectly, fire pit & picnic table, down to all the little lanterns to guide your way. The outdoor shower was the hit of the weekend!
We absolutely loved this place! Beautiful cabin, shower and bathroom. The view of the river was so pretty and peaceful. Excellent hosts with great communication. We’re already thinking about our next trip back!
This is a lovely camper. It is very clean and the beds are so comfortable. Lacey was always quick to respond to any questions I had. This is my second stay here and I already have a 3rd trip planned. So grateful she shares this sweet place.
Lacey was an incredibly helpful, accommodating and responsive host! They have a super cute place all around, very enjoyable!
Great location! Came down with my buddy and his kids to enjoy a weekend away from the city. The kids had a blast hanging out in the cabin and sitting around the fire. Lacey gave great instructions and it was so easy to find. Would definitely come back again.
The cabin was very clean and cozy. It’s also close to a lot of outdoor activities that we really enjoyed. Lacey was able to help get us setup on a float trip with her kayaks after our planned trip got cancelled. Floating the Big Piney is a must do when you’re there. It’s the perfect spot if you’re looking for a weekend getaway in one of the most beautiful parts of the State!
