Brown-O’Haver Visits Mountain Vista

Brown-O’Haver, a national public insurance adjusting company, hosted their corporate retreat at Mountain Vista recently.

Alice Young oversees their Oklahoma operations and describes her time relaxing at Mountain Vista.

The Brown-O’Haver staff traveled from Moore, OK and stopped in Antlers at the famous SpannMan’s BBQ restaurant. They later enjoyed dinner at Moon Tower Bar and Grill in Hochatown.

We’re happy Alice and her team appreciated the serenity of Beavers Bend and our amenities at Mountain Vista.

Here’s how Brown-O’Haver can help you with an insurance issue.

Cabin Highway Noise

Cabin highway noise should be at the top of your list when researching luxury vacation properties in Beavers Bend State Park.

Scores of cabins continue to be built in Broken Bow and many are near noisy highways. You arrive and are excited about a few days in a cabin and surprise…Larry the log truck driver is doing 70mph within a few yards of your vacation retreat.

A few of the biggest disappointments visitors experience when arriving at their Broken Bow lodging choice are road noise and having another cabin nearby.

How can you really be sure your cabin will be secluded away from Larry’s loud tailpipe?

Mountain Vista luxury cabin sits on acres of seclusion…away from noisy highways and log trucks. Download our Beavers Bend app for VIP offers and a list of area attractions.

A few dates are available in early March at Mountain Vista. Contact us if we can help plan your Beavers Bend vacation.

Ol’ Larry and his log truck won’t be in the area!

Watch Out For Beavers Bend Add-On Fees

Sherri and I along with our very spoiled Grand Champion Brussels Griffon just returned from a week in Southern California. The weather was actually warmer in Oklahoma during the duration of our stay than at Newport Beach.

Mountain Vista features stunning 20-miles views and acres of seclusion in the upscale Southern Hills Addition near Beavers Bend State Park. The cabin has been featured in Oklahoma’s centennial celebration book and lauded by TravelOK as “A Place To Stay In Oklahoma.”

Unlike many cabins in Broken Bow, you deal directly with us, the owners, rather than a large management company.

I’ve noticed a dramatic surge in rental property interest in the past couple of months. If you’re considering purchasing or building a cabin in Beavers Bend and need consultation, let me know. I’ve written numerous articles you can find online about how to market luxury properties.

We’re considering adding and marketing cabins on our website, social media outlets and app. Ask yourself if you’d like your cabin marketed by a company already overseeing 30-70 other cabins.

How will you receive individualized media attention while competing with scores of cabins on a website?

Questions To Ask Beavers Bend Property Managers

There are many questions to ask Beavers Bend property managers before building or buying a luxury cabin in Broken Bow, OK.

Stepping out of your comfort zone is sometimes difficult if you have no marketing or media experience. It’ll be worse if your cabin management company has limited digital and print marketing experience.

Ask these questions before signing a contract with any property manager in Broken Bow.

You have 30-50 cabins on your website. Tell me about your background with market segmentation to enhance my chance of renting consistently?
How do you juggle owning a separate business along with marketing cabins?
What is your background in mobile marketing?
Will I get the names and contact information of each guest staying in my cabin if I wish?
Will I see each maintenance invoice?
Do you or the contractor markup maintenance fees on properties because it’s a rental?

Are you an expert in list, database and zip code marketing? Tell me about your background with this in large cities across the country.
Do you publish a newsletter and blog? How many people read it?

Do you personally own luxury rental cabins?
Give me 10-20 of your cabin owners’ names as references.

Beavers Bend Weekend Activities

If you’re looking for weekend Beavers Bend activities during dreary weather, we have a few tips.

Sherri and I enjoyed a weekend at Mountain Vista decorating the cabin and visiting our favorite hot spots. If you encounter frigid weather and the lake or river isn’t calling your name, follow our lead…

We visited the great people at Mountain Man Meat Market and had their amazing seafood gumbo special. If you like friendly people and world-class gourmet meats, you’ll love this new Beavers Bend business.

No morning is complete in Beavers Bend without stopping by Adam & Eve’s Coffee House. Owner, Pam Jackson, is constantly adding healthy dining options and her gift shop continues to expand. We almost bought her entire inventory of locally made soaps!

Our favorite place in Beavers Bend is always hanging out with our friends at Moon Tower Bar and Grill. Chef Tabb Singleton, a two-time Food Network Champion, is always there to greet us with a smile and world-class cuisine. The chicken and dumplings were tremendous!

We’re offering Beavers Bend fans a 20% discount on weekdays in January at Mountain Vista. The winter months are a perfect time to visit Broken Bow while enjoying our fire pit and hot tub. Firewood is always free along with s’mores kits and other upscale amenities.

OKC-Tulsa To Beavers Bend Restaurant Tip

We’ve written about our friends at Spannman’s BBQ in Antlers for years. You must visit the award-winning BBQ champion chef when passing through Antlers on the way to Beavers Bend.

He’s located on the main drag through town just down the road from Sonic.

If you’re traveling from OKC or Tulsa to Broken Bow you’ll be amazed at this world-class cuisine.

Tell Spannman we sent you. He’s been a great friend to us and Mountain Vista cabin.

Beavers Bend’s Favorite Show Dog Wins

CH GCH Hilltop’s Time For Kula To Fly & Sherri Isbell

Beavers Bend’s most famous show dog finished this weekend’s AKC dog show in Chickasha, OK with two Best of Breed victories!

As many of you know, we’ve been in the dog show world for two decades. When we’re not hanging out in Beavers Bend, we’re probably at a dog show with “Kula,” our six-year old Brussels Griffon.

If you’re considering a new dog, AKC dog shows are a great place to learn about different breeds from the experts. That’s how we got started 20 years ago.

Many of our Mountain Vista fans are from DFW and I’d recommend attending the Lone Star Classic December 8-11 at the Dallas Market Mall. It’s a huge show with well over 1,000 dogs.

We currently have rare openings in mid-December at Mountain Vista and 2017 reservations are already occurring. It’s very important to make your 2017 holiday and spring break bookings soon.

Happy Thanksgiving from Jerry, Sherri and Kula!

Beavers Bend’s New Meat Market

Mountain Man Meat Market and Catering

You must visit Beavers Bend’s new meat market during your next trip to Broken Bow Lake.

I met the owners of Mountain Man Meat Market and Catering recently and was blown away by their kindness and quality meats. I sampled their in-house smoked turkey and enjoyed a BBQ sandwich for lunch. They were fantastic!

The owners moved to Beavers Bend from Mississippi after hard times hit the oil industry. They feature daily lunch specials and everything you’ll need to enjoy an evening of grilling at Mountain Vista cabin.

Their ribs and pork chops were fantastic on the Mountain Vista grill and we look forward to seeing their business flourish. This isn’t your typical meat market…its gourmet and upscale cuisine.

Grilling ribs at Mountain Vista!

If you don’t feel like cooking yourself while staying in a Beavers Bend luxury cabin, take advantage of their catering service. Mountain Man Meat Market and Catering is located about a mile south of the Beavers Bend exit on Highway 259.

The oil bust has turned into a huge boom for Beavers Bend visitors. You’ll love their service and food!
