Broken Bow Cabin Rental Tips

I get tons of inquires from people wanting Broken Bow cabin rental tips. What are the most important things to consider before reserving a luxury cabin in Beavers Bend?

My Top 5 Broken Bow Cabin Rental Tips

Make sure your cabin will be secluded. I’m not saying you need to be on a hundred acres with no one nearby. You want to have peace and quiet when spending a lot of money on a vacation. Often, Broken Bow visitors don’t realize another cabin is nearby until they arrive. Surprise, the Beavers Bend cabin management company didn’t tell you about nearby neighbors on their website! Ask for perimeter pictures and videos of the property. There are scores of cabins being built close together now that the economy has picked up.
Don’t Pay Add-On/Resort Fees. @KillResortFees is a great follow on Twitter. They’ve been featured here a few times. @KillResortFees does fantastic job of exposing tourist scams across the country. Resort fees, insurance fees, incidental fees, hot tub fees, cleaning fees…they’re prevalent punches to your pocketbook at a plethora of hotels and resorts. We never gouge our guests with this junk at Mountain Vista
Stay Clear Of Honkey Tonks. So you’ve booked a great looking cabin online and you arrive to the sounds of this blaring through your cabin.

Make sure your cabin isn’t near a loud bar with outdoor tunes crankin’ until the wee hours of the morning. This happens frequently and unless you brought earplugs, it could be a sleepless night.

4. Know T’s & C’s. Read the terms and conditions carefully before booking a Beavers Bend luxury cabin. If you see penny-pinching things such as “We provide two trash bags. If you need a third, bring it,” punt them to the curb! We provide plenty of trash bags and all the essentials you’ll need at our Mountain Vista vacation home.

5. Understand vacation and rental home differences. Sometimes management companies will own cabins with the sole purpose of renting them. They’re not true vacation homes. Corners will often be cut regarding amenities, location and proximity to a loud highway. These cabins are usually smaller and very close together. A vacation home will probably offer more upscale features such as free firewood, s’mores kits and non-generic supplies. Our guests at Mountain Vista don’t get cheap paper towels and toilet paper. We feature the Real McCoy’s. Free firewood and s’mores kits are given to every guest.

There are many fantastic cabins in Beavers Bend State Park at every price range. Follow my Broken Bow cabin rental tips and hopefully you’ll have a wonderful visit to Southeastern Oklahoma…with no surprises.

There’s no funky music at Mountain Vista! Only acres of seclusion, amazing views and upscale amenities. Contact us at 405-535-8055 and we’ll be happy to answer any questions. Follow me on Twitter @BeaversBend.

New Add-On Fees In Beavers Bend

Mountain Vista

There are new add-on fees in Beavers Bend being charged by some luxury cabin companies. “Incidental Fees” and “Property Damage Protection Fees.”

Nifty names, huh? I’m not sure what they mean, but I have a feeling someone saw these charges on their hotel bill and thought, “This is a great way to get more money out of our guests who are already paying several hundred dollars per night!”

Hey, if you agree to pay these ridiculous guest-gouging charges let me know. I’ll have a great deal on some oceanfront property in Arizona for you!

Firewood fees continue to be prevalent in Beavers Bend…but not with us. It’s always free at Mountain Vista. Many are charging $75-$100 for a few sticks of wood. Depending on which luxury cabin you rent, you could be burning lots of money while keeping the fire burning.

Fall foliage season is only weeks away and we have no weekends available in October. Only one weekend is available in November. We have a few weekdays available both months so check our calendar and reserve Mountain Vista. Our peak foliage dates will be gone soon.

Fall has arrived in Beavers Bend and although the forecast looks warm over the next few days, chilly nights and crisp mornings will soon greet you in the Kiamichi Mountains. The Broken Bow Lake area is spectacular during autumn and you should take the Talimena Drive when visiting the area.

Remember to do your homework when choosing a luxury cabin near Broken Bow Lake and Beavers Bend State Park. There are many great cabins in the area. Unfortunately, only a few won’t charge you add-on fees.

We always provide free s’mores kits, Starbucks and firewood. Our staff always makes sure there is an ample supply of Bed Bath and Beyond products throughout the cabin. You’ll never pay cleaning or insurance charges at Mountain Vista.

We’ve developed a “niche market” by not charging add-on fees. Our guests love it. More importantly, they love this view! We’re only a few weeks away from this kaleidoscope of colors being visible at Mountain Vista.

Follow us on Facebook and Twitter and we hope you will experience Mountain Vista soon!

Top 10 Beavers Bend Cabin Rental Tips

Jerry and Sherri Isbell, BeaversBendVacations.com “Mountain Vista”

Choosing a luxury cabin in Broken Bow is often a daunting task for first-time visitors. There are 1,000 cabins available and scores of websites to peruse. How do you choose the right one? Here are my Top 10 Beavers Bend cabin rental tips.

1. Never pay add-on charges for insurance, firewood, cleaning or resort fees. I’ve written about this extensively through the years.

2. Research the cabin owners or property management group. How long have they been in business? If you can’t find scores of positive, verifiable media about them, look elsewhere.

3. Get a secluded cabin. This is one of the top complaints from guests who travel to Beavers Bend. Sometimes it’s difficult to be certain until arrival. Tricky picture angles of cabins can make it look scenic and isolated. Once you arrive at the cabin…boom! You see another cabin nearby and 15 people are doing Karaoke to Bon Jovi in the parking lot! We have acres of seclusion in the upscale Southern Hills Addition.

4. Don’t settle for unprofessionalism. If your emails and calls aren’t returned promptly, kick them to the curb.

5. Don’t allow yourself to be nickel and dimed. Read the terms and conditions on each website. It’s usually a plethora of fees and “gotcha’s”.

6. Check references. We have many public figures that have endorsed us.

7. Look for amenities. Many cabin owners and property management companies are too tight to provide free Starbucks, S’mores Kits, luxury linens and upscale hand soaps. Starbucks is one of many things “on the house” at Mountain Vista.

8. Does the cabin have many repeat guests? Ours are easy to find here on the blog.

9. Is your cabin owner or management company providing state-of-the-art-technology to enhance your experience in Broken Bow? We created Beavers Bend’s first app with Mobile Roadie, a global leader in Los Angeles. Our app wasn’t made in someone’s garage!

10. Trust your gut and do a little homework. If you’re renting from a company with 30-50 cabins on a website, how much attention to detail can they truly provide before your arrival?

There are many great cabins in Beavers Bend. Choose the right fit for you. Sherri and I have fit in well with guests through the years and enjoy having many repeat visitors.

Take my top 10 Beavers Bend cabin rental tips to heart…your getaway to the Kiamichi Mountains will be much more worry-free by simply doing a little homework.

Get to the Broken Bow Lake area soon. Two-million tourists flock here for a reason…It’s gorgeous!

Will My Beavers Bend Cabin Be Secluded?

One of the biggest questions people want to know when visiting the Broken Bow Lake area is “Will my Beavers Bend cabin be secluded?”

There are about 1,000 cabins for rent in Beavers Bend. Some are cheap, under $100. Many are expensive, well over $400 per night. If you’re choosing an upscale cabin make sure to check references and investigate what the term “secluded” really means on a cabin website.

Look for pictures and video of the property perimeter. Do you homework to make sure there are no cabins 30 feet away…you may not want to hear every word going on at the Jones’ Family Reunion next door!

Mountain Vista in Beavers Bend has three-king bedrooms and private decks boasting a terrific view of nature. When gazing westward, you’ll see a stunning 20-mile of the Kiamichi Mountains. We also have acres of seclusion in the upscale Southern Hills Addition.

The list of “Who’s Who” that have visited Mountain Vista is second-to-none. Dan Boren-former United States Congressman, Jeff Stone-CEO of Skeeter Boats, Toby Rowland-Voice of the Oklahoma Sooners and Jim Traber-Former Baltimore Oriole and OKC radio host, are just a few that have made BeaversBendVacations.com their vacation destination.

We always feature free s’mores kits and firewood. There are no additional charges for cleaning or insurance and there are a few extras that our guests love! You’ll never pay resort fees or incur needless add-on charges at our vacation home.

Mountain Fork River

Many luxury cabins in Beavers Bend tend to oversell how many people they can accommodate. We do just the opposite…your comfort is our priority. Scrutinize any cabin stating they can hold 15-20 people. Sleeping bags scattered all over the place isn’t our style.

July is packed at Mountain Vista but we have dates available in August and September. The fall foliage season is only a few months away and it’s one of our busiest times of the year.

Mountain Vista, Broken Bow, OK

Make sure you know the answer regarding “Will my Beavers Bend cabin be secluded?”
