Beavers Bend Fly Fishing

Beavers Bend fly fishing enthusiasts flock to the Mountain Fork River area in hopes of landing a mammoth trout. A little help from the pros at Beavers Bend Fly Shop will increase your chances of landing the “Big one” for dinner!

Affordable Three Bedroom Cabins in Beavers Bend

Affordable three bedroom cabins in Beavers Bend

Broken Bow Lake visitors are constantly searching for affordable three-bedroom cabins in Beavers Bend, but costs can be deceiving if you don’t do your homework.

Many companies are tacking on extra fees of 18-25% in addition to a several hundred dollar per-night charge. Carefully look at the “fine print” before reserving a luxury cabin in Beavers Bend State Park. Lower nightly rates may appear appealing upon first glance, but once you see the guest gouging charges on your invoice, your lighter pocketbook will be begging you to make a wiser choice on your next visit to Broken Bow Lake.

July 4th Beavers Bend Cabin Tips

July 4th Beavers Bend CabinsI

If you’re looking for July 4th Beavers Bend cabin tips at Broken Bow Lake, elite accommodations are limited by this time of the year. Our holiday bookings are reserved months in advance.

Several potential Beavers Bend State Park visitors will surely cancel their reservations before Independence Day. We once had a tree trimmer scheduled to arrive July 4th…He had an accident, fell out of a tree and nearly died. Needless to say, he couldn’t make it to Mountain Vista the next day! We’re happy to report he’s doing well now but it’s a perfect example that cancellations do happen…here are a few tips to possibly land the luxury Oklahoma cabin of your dreams during peak and holiday dates in the heavily visited Kiamichi Mountain region.

1. Ask to be placed on a  waiting list with a Broken Bow cabin company. If they don’t have one, give them a few demerit points and take your business elsewhere. All reputable property management organizations should have a waiting list for potential guests. We do. Contact us at 405-535-8055 or email [email protected] and we’ll gladly add you to the list in case we have a cancellation.

2. Keep checking cabin website availability calendars. Ours is updated several times daily and if a guest has an emergency cancellation, we announce it to the world on social media and our Beavers Bend app.

3. Get on a luxury cabin newsletter mailing list. If your favorite cabin company isn’t communicating and keeping in touch with you regarding promotions and VIP special offers, find another one!

Our spring and summer dates are filling fast. The next opening at Mountain Vista is June 1-4 and we don’t have a weekend available until August. Remember to book early for weekends and holidays in Beavers Bend! These peak dates are highly sought after and each year we get many phone calls and emails from people wishing they’d have reserved their July 4th Beavers Bend cabin earlier in the year.

Take a hike, play a round of golf, float Mountain Fork River or hire a fishing guide to help you land the big trout and bass that are plentiful in our area. There’s many activities  to enjoy here but remember to relax and enjoy the views and fresh air. There’s a reason two-million tourists flock to our area annually…the scenery is breathtaking here. Especially from our deck at Mountain Vista!

Follow these July 4th Beavers Bend cabin tips and be persistent. Hopefully you’ll be boating across Broken Bow Lake on Independence Day rather than barbecuing in your backyard!

Beavers Bend Cabins Safety Tips

Since warmer weather has arrived near Beavers Bend State Park, tourists and locals have been flocking to Cedar Creek Golf Course and enjoying a jaunt on the beautiful waters of Broken Bow Lake and Mountain Fork River. Always follow these Beavers Bend cabins safety tips below.

If you need your boat serviced while in town, we recommend our lifelong friends at Broadway Boats in Broken Bow, Oklahoma. They also own Bruton’s Outdoors in downtown Broken Bow. If you’re a shop till you drop kind of person, check them out when visiting our area. You’ll need hiking boots upon arrival in our Kiamichi Mountains and they have an amazing selection. They’re great people and offer fantastic deals. Bruton’s Outdoors even feature the old-fashioned sidewalk sales that we love. Sherri recently picked up a pink “cammo hat” that she adores! It looks great on her, I’m the “regular cammo type!”

We’ve had lots of great feedback regarding the “Meet our Beavers Bend Guests” series we began this year on the blog. People visiting the cabin feel a connection with previous guests at Mountain Vista and enjoy reading their chronicles in our guestbook. We have a few additional features “in the can” (as we used to say in the television business) for the future. Each of our guests have a unique story to share…How they heard about Mountain Vista, what brought them here, what they did while touring our area and their thoughts upon departure. I need to tell more of their tremendous stories.

The hot temperatures will soon arrive for guests of Beavers Bend luxury cabins and that means you need to take a few precautions. Insect repellent, water and sports drinks are a few of the “musts’ when visiting Broken Bow Lake cabins during the summer. The older I get, the more I understand the importance of proper hydration…Make sure you’re being smart, using sunscreen and don’t push it too hard in the heat. The summer months can be very humid in the Kiamichi Mountains and the heat can creep up on you quickly. Bring a big, big hat!

Take care of yourself, friends and family when visiting our area with the heat on the way. Our app has emergency phone numbers  listed to help you in case an unexpected situation arises.

Stay and play in Beavers Bend State Park soon! We can answer most of your questions regarding tourism in the Broken Bow Lake area. Call us at 405-535-8055 or visit our website at BeaversBendVacations.com. We have no weekends available until August but several weekdays are still open.

Beavers Bend Cabin Reviews

Beavers Bend Cabin Reviews

We’re fortunate to have many great Beavers Bend cabin reviews. Our guests enjoy our views and the extra little touches we provide for our visitors. Here’s a recent pic of our deck view at Mountain Vista Cabin in Beavers Bend and notes from a couple of our guests over the past few weeks. We still find it hilarious, yet amazingly unethical, that another cabin company in Broken Bow is using our view on their website to market cabins. We’ve mentioned it a few times on social media and our blog here, but have yet to reveal their website. We may…Many visitors to Beavers Bend cabin websites have noticed too…they’ve told us!

Should we spill the beans and expose unethical business behavior or let it ride? Let us know your thoughts. Our last question on any business or marketing decision is always “Is this the right thing?” The marketing and ethical landscape has certainly changed recently for several Beavers Bend cabin companies. Many don’t tell you there’ s another cabin only yards away and others say their place comfortably sleeps 12 when truly, it’s only six. They never say “Hey, we’re close to a noisy road, come visit us!” Some outfits are juggling 25-50 cabins, and trying to rent them with the cheapest marketing tactics and low-budget technology possible. They steal our highly marketed 20 mile-view pictures, slap it on their website and “Shazam”…”We’ve got views like this too!” Don’t fall for it.

Beavers Bend Cabin Reviews

We’ve taken an aggressive approach this year to educate Beavers Bend and Broken Bow Lake cabin visitors on the tricks of the trade some use to get your reservation…Firewood charges, ridiculous incidental fees, extra cleaning bills and anything possible to choke out your credit card.  If you’re speaking with someone who is taking calls a cabin agency trying to rent scores of cabins…Good luck, you may need it!

Beavers Bend Cabin Reviews

If you’re a high-end luxury cabin owner in Beavers Bend and would like to have professionally produced video tours, like ours, to market your property , let us know. If you’d like to take the next step with technology and jump aboard our tourist app we created that thousands enjoy, we’d like to visit with you. Have you been with the same cabin company for quite awhile and they’re not producing great content for your property, but still collecting 30-45% fees? We can take your media and marketing to an entirely new level. Google “Mountain Vista Cabin Beavers Bend.” You’ll see.

Remember, just because someone puts something on a website, that doesn’t mean it’ll really be there upon your arrival at a Broken Bow Lake cabin. No matter where you see our view on other cabin company websites, don’t let them fool you.

There’s only one, Mountain Vista View!

Contact us at 405-535-8055 or email [email protected] if you are interested in luxury cabin media, marketing and management or just a relaxing stay at our vacation home. Visit our website at www.BeaversBendVacations.com.

Beavers Bend Memorial Weekend Cabins

Beavers Bend Memorial Weekend Cabins

When you’re researching cabins in Beavers Bend for Memorial Day Weekend, there are a few things you should consider when trying to secure a spot near Broken Bow Lake and Mountain Fork River.

Many cabins management companies tend to oversell how many people their properties will accommodate in hopes of charging more per head to increase revenues at the sake of guest comfort. If you see a three-bedroom cabin being advertised as holding 15 people, think about it for a second…Would you want that many people in your house?

There’s a difference between “rental cabins” and “vacation homes” in the Beavers Bend State Park luxury cabin game. If you can deal directly with the owners, most of the time that’s a plus. The owner wants great people and a comfortable number of guests in their expensive luxury home. Large rental companies may not care…Some do. It’s usually churn baby churn, get you in and out and move on to the next guests when dealing with many of the mass renting property management companies.  Many will also charge you extra for firewood, insurance and use other goofy, guest gouging tactics. We don’t do it that way. Many will post unauthorized pictures on their websites or not let you know there’s another cabin a few feet away. It’s easy for a picture to make a luxury property look great…Make them show you a panoramic video view of the property. It’s much more difficult to be unethical with this form of media.

There’s still another rental company in the area using our 20-mile deck view on their website! It’s been going on for over a year. Beware of false advertising such as this.  As we’ve told you here before, do your homework when choosing a luxury destination. It’s tough for someone to have great quality control if they’re renting 20-30 cabins, especially during a peak holiday period. There are a few companies who are able to accomplish this task, ask us for a reference.

We’re gearing up for a fantastic spring and summer at Mountain Vista cabin in Beavers Bend. There are many great cabins in Broken Bow. Pick an owner or rental outfit that’s honest, ethical and has a good reputation.

Make your summer plans soon to visit McCurtain County. Our tourist season has officially arrived! Come enjoy the most scenic place in Oklahoma!
