I needed a place to relax that was remote and not too far. I live in Mesquite, Tx (DFW) and I could only think of Oklahoma renting out a cabin. I'm glad that I found this spot. It was an 1 1/2 hrs away from me. Everything looks exactly like the pics. The host responded quickly. I forgot to bring a fan, only to find out that the room came with one. I always sleep with a fan on because it helps me sleep. Everything I needed was there. Great stay.

Amazing stay from start to finish! The hosts were absolutely incredible. On our first day, we got stuck in the snow, and they were there within 30 minutes to pull us out, then even took us to dinner afterward, which truly went above and beyond. The management company was extremely responsive and professional throughout our stay. The scenery was beautiful, the atmosphere was very relaxing, and the whole experience was unforgettable. We will definitely be coming back again.

We just arrived back to the real world after a perfect long weekend at the peaceful Barn Owl. The accommodations are clean and cozy. The atmosphere is quiet and tranquil. The bathroom was spacious, with the largest shower I’ve ever seen. The linens were also high quality. It was easy to get to plenty of dining options. We loved the nice little break from the usual busy schedule, and we hope to do it again soon.
