There are differences among cabins available for rent near Broken Bow Lake. Look for cabins with no resort fees. Additional charges may include cleaning, hot tub, insurance and incidental fees.

We never gouge guests with add-on fees at Mountain Vista. Our firewood and s’mores kits are also free.

Reserve your winter and 2018 peak dates soon. People unfamiliar with Beavers Bend’s popularity are often stunned by the high demand of weekends and holidays. The great luxury cabins are usually booked.

Resort Fees Getting Rocked

I’ve done media about luxury vacation rental resort fee scams for years. My feedback has been 99.9% positive…except for those charging you these ridiculous insurance, cleaning, hot tub and incidental fees.

Scores are beginning to take note of the rip-offs, including NBC News.

Resort fees made their way from hotels to luxury vacation rentals a few years ago. These wallet wasters are prevalent in Beavers Bend. We never gouge guests with these charges at Mountain Vista.

Clouds Rolling In At Mountain Vista

The skies are turning grey for many charging resort fees to consumers. The public has become aware and are fighting back. @KillResortFees is a great follow on Twitter. They’ve been at the forefront of educating travelers for years.

Beavers Bend Fall Foliage Update

We’ve noticed a little change in the leaves on our Mountain Vista property, but nothing dramatic yet. Cooler temperatures over the next few weeks will result in beautiful foliage.

Weekdays are available at Mountain Vista in October and November. Remember to find out how close your cabin will be to other renters. Ask if you’ll be near a noisy bar or highway before booking a luxury Beavers Bend getaway.

Beavers Bend Fall Foliage Season Tips

Beavers Bend Fall Foliage Season Tips

Mountain Vista Luxury Cabin

The fall foliage season is one of the most popular times of the year in Beavers Bend. Here are a few tips to make your trip to Broken Bow more enjoyable.

  • Book your luxury cabin immediately. The good ones are filling fast.
  • Take the Talimena Drive. It’s a beautiful trip up the mountain offering breathtaking photography opportunities.
  • Explore the David Boren Hiking Trail.
  • Play Cedar Creek Golf Course.
  • Float Mountain Fork River. Fly fishing and canoeing are popular activities in the fall.
  • Enjoy the deck at Food Network Champion Chef, Tabb Singleton’s Moon Tower Bar and Grill.
  • Rolling Fork Takery also has an amazing deck area and fantastic cuisine.

Mountain Vista has a 50 mile views from the deck!

If traveling to Beavers Bend from the Oklahoma City area during October to mid-November, I recommend taking I-40 to Sallisaw. Jaunt down 250 South and enjoy the fall foliage. You’ll see picturesque views and experience many winding roads.

There are a few weekdays available in October and November at Mountain Vista.

Beavers Bend Fall Foliage Season Tips

We do things very differently at Mountain Vista cabin. There are never charges for firewood and s’mores kits. Our fire pit is very popular with guests during the fall and winter months. Others charge $100 for a few logs and do not issue refunds for unused firewood.

Mountain Vista features acres of seclusion in the upscale Southern Hills Addition. We’re minutes away from Mountain Fork River and Broken Bow Lake.

Reviews of Mountain Vista Cabin

The latest Beavers Bend cabin reviews of Mountain Vista cabin are in and they’re fantastic!

Sherri and I are grateful to the legions of Beavers Bend fans that experienced our vacation home for the first time this summer. We had many repeat guests too.

Summer will be in our rearview mirror soon after the upcoming Labor Day Weekend. Our favorite seasons at Mountain are fall and winter…we love foliage and the fire pit!

To enjoy views like ours, you’ve gotta climb a little blacktop hill, but its well worth it. Our hill is easily accessible in a car, just give it a little gas and you’ll be fine.

We only have a handful of weekend dates available until Thanksgiving at Mountain Vista. Friday-Saturday dates are golden and in high demand.

A tip for first-time luxury cabin visitors to Beavers Bend State Park. When you rent from a management company, they’re dealing with 30-70 other cabin rentals during your stay. Do the math.

No need to be a rocket scientist to determine that you won’t receive much personalized attention. Mountain Vista is truly our vacation home and you deal directly with us, the owners.

Mountain Vista cabin features free firewood, s’mores kits and no add-on charges for hot tub, insurance and cleaning fees. There’s actually a hot tub charge in Beavers Bend a few have implemented…I don’t get it.

We have a hot tub and want you to use it…there’s no additional fee.

Download our app for a list of all the hot spots in Beavers Bend. Three wineries and a couple of breweries are now prevolent in the Kiamichi Mountains. There are plenty of activities for you to enjoy in Beavers Bend.

Cooler temps and the Talimena Drive are just around the corner for Broken Bow cabin visitors. Contact us at Mountain Vista to reconnect with nature in style…and no resort fees.

Fall Foliage Finale

Fall Foliage Finale

We’ve reached the fall foliage finale in Beavers Bend State Park.

It’s time to say farewell to this colorful gift we enjoy annually and prepare for a great winter around the fire pit. Remember, the firewood is always free at Mountain Vista. Do a little research and see how many other cabins offer this perk.

The drought definitely impacted our fall colors, but an average foliage season in the Kiamichi Mountains beats being stuck in traffic on the Tollway in DFW. I captured this pic a few days ago at Mountain Vista as I enjoyed watching the torrential rain from our upper deck.

The Broken Bow Chamber of Commerce just released a nice Beavers Bend lodging magazine. You can pick it up across the state at travel stops. It showcases many Beavers Bend cabins at all price levels. Mountain Vista is featured on the inside cover. Contact the chamber office for specific locations where the publication is available.

It’s never too early to plan next year’s spring break in Beavers Bend. Our loyal followers don’t play around…they’ve already booked most of the Texas/Oklahoma spring break weekends for 2016. Our holiday and weekend dates are very popular and 2016 dates are already booking. Check our availability calendar and reserve ASAP.

When planning your escape to the Broken Bow Lake area, remember to check for add-on fees before reserving. I wrote these top 10 critical tips you need to know before reserving a luxury cabin in Beavers Bend earlier this year.

It’s the season of giving and I encourage you to checkout the Limbs for Life Foundation. I serve on their board of directors and we donate prosthetics to needy amputees around the world. Please consider the Limbs for Life Foundation when planning your year-end charitable donations. It’s a wonderful organization and our slogan is “We’re not asking for much…just an arm and a leg!”

Happy Thanksgiving!
