About this property

Big Oak Cabin - mountaintop home near Jasper

Big Oak Cabin is a split-level, 2 bedroom, 2 bath house, with 2 separate living rooms. Situated on 5 acres high in the Ozarks, the house is much larger than it looks from the picture, with a large front porch and west-facing rear deck overlooking a pond and splendid sunsets. Only a few miles from the Buffalo River and hiking trails, half a mile from Cliff House Restaurant and five miles south of the quaint town of Jasper. Conveniently located on Hwy 7, Big Oak is a place of quiet Ozark peace.

One of the best features of staying at our place is, we owners are very well-informed about the area and have served as guides to many trails. We know the region extremely well and are happy to give you all the detailed information you need to find any sort of trail or attraction.

Our stay at Big Oak Cabin was amazing. Being able to park in front of the porch and having a bedroom, bathroom, living room and deck on that level made it so much easier on our 81 year old mother who has issues with stairs. This was perfect for our needs! Everything about the property was great. Heaters worked great when needed and fans available if needed. All furniture was comfortable and just the whole set up of the cabin was really great. We only had to contact the Host once on getting one of the heaters turned on. The response was quick and resolved our issue (operator error, not equipment). Due to weather conditions, we did not get to use the patio, deck or chairs out back like we had hoped but it was beautiful out there, nonetheless. We highly recommend Big Oak Cabin and look forward to future visits!

Spring Break Trip with the Family and Dogs

My partner and I and our two kids (ages 12 and 14) and two dogs stayed for two nights. The property was clean and exactly what we were expecting based on the listing. The hosts are absolutely fantastic and very communicative-Dennis sent us a list of hikes in the area. We very much appreciated the little details that were available to us - firewood, spices, cookware, laundry, and toiletries. Made our short stay so easy and relaxing! We will definitely book again in the future and highly recommend this property and hosts! P.S. We also highly recommend checking out Fern Falls! Very close to the cabin and a short and easy hike to a beautiful waterfall! Thank you for sharing the link to the falls in the area, Dennis!

Tranquility and beauty

This listing was accurately represented. It was close to all of our hiking spots. The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. We appreciated that our dog was able to come with us for our stay. Plenty of room for all of our needs. We would absolutely stay here again if we come back to the area.

About the host

Hosted by Dennis & Naomi Gundersen

We're Dennis & Naomi, seasoned hikers and lovers of the Ozarks. Our business is publishing children's books reprinted from the 1800s. We stay here at Big Oak Cabin as frequently as we can, often 6 to 8 times each year. The Ozarks are abundant in trails that are easily hiked by almost anyone, while also having very challenging options. We're glad to help you find the right outdoors adventure for you and those traveling with you!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Big Oak Cabin back when it was only a private residence, and bought it to enjoy it for our own trips, as well as to share with others. Its immense trees, including "Big Oak" himself (the 350 year old tree out front) give the property an amazing character. We've never found anywhere so relaxing.
