Beavers Bend Winter Cabin Special

Mountain Vista’s Beavers Bend Winter Cabin Special has been announced today across various media platforms.

Enjoy 20% off at Mountain Vista luxury cabin December 4-18 and during January 2017!

Other cabins in Broken Bow charge $100 or more for a couple of days supply of firewood…not us! It’s always free. You’ll never spend a penny around our fire pit for s’mores either.

Our famous s’mores kits are also on the house at Mountain Vista. These aren’t simply generic junk…Sherri’s s’mores kits are vacuum sealed and always include a few extras like gourmet tea and Starbucks!

Who else provides free Starbucks in Beavers Bend?

Get our app for Beavers Bend tourist information.

We hope you’ll take advantage of this special offer and enjoy one of Beavers Bend’s most spectacular views from our deck.

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!

August Beavers Bend Cabin Special

Enjoy a free night at Mountain Vista with our August Beavers Bend cabin special…

Arrive at Mountain Vista on August 21st or 28th, stay three and your fourth-night is free!

It’s been another jam-packed summer for us in Beavers Bend. Unfortunately, we have to turn away many visitors because as the old saying goes, “there’s no room at the inn!”

A few days are open near the back to school timeframe, so we decided to give a night away!

Here’s a recent text from guests upon arrival…

“We are having a blast! The cabin is amazing, and we love getting away from the city for peace and quiet!”

If you’ve never been to a luxury cabin in Beavers Bend, make sure to do homework. Stay away from resort and insurance fees along with gouging charges for cleaning and incidentals.

We’ve had an impressive list of great fans through the years at Mountain Vista. Many have been featured on our blog. We’ll stack these people up against anyone and play ball…Checkout our references!

There are tons of fantastic luxury cabins in Broken Bow. However, many are being built near a noisy highway or nearby cabin.

Always research your cabin before booking and make sure it has seclusion and a view. The biggest complaints we hear from tourists staying at other cabins are:

Paying add-on fees
Lack of seclusion
Cheap Amenities

Guests don’t appreciate paying $400/night and having generic hand soaps and paper towels. We go the extra mile and provide Bed Bath and Beyond soaps and first-class supplies.

After a few trips to Beavers Bend, you’ll understand the difference between a rental cabin and vacation home. Mountain Vista is truly our vacation home…

A few dollars more out of our pocket per-guest coincides with having tremendous repeat bookings. We provide free firewood throughout the year…research this and see how many others do the same.

Beavers Bend Brewery

I enjoyed touring the Beavers Bend Brewery recently and learning about one of the newest tourist attractions near Broken Bow Lake.

They’re located next to Girls Gone Wine on Highway 259 North. The Beavers Bend Brewery features a plethora of hand-crafted beers on tap and a growler.

The Beavers Bend Brewery has a beautiful and spacious outdoor seating area. It’s a perfect place to enjoy sipping a cold-one while visiting the Kiamichi Mountains.

Their staff is welcoming and knowledgable and will quickly make you feel at home. The brewery is only a few minutes drive from Mountain Vista luxury cabin. Make sure to visit the Beavers Bend Brewery on your next trip to Broken Bow, OK.

May Beavers Bend Travel Deal

Take advantage of our May Beavers Bend travel deal at Mountain Vista! Arrive on Sunday’s and your fourth-night is free.

Remember to ask these important questions before reserving any luxury cabin in Beavers Bend:

How far away is the nearest cabin?
Do you charge a cleaning fee?
Do you charge an insurance fee?
Do you charge a resort fee?
Do you charge for firewood & s’mores?
Do you charge a hot tub fee?

If they answer “yes” to any of the above, ask “why?”

All of the above are free at Mountain Vista…we don’t believe in add-on fees.

We only have two weekends available until August. Make your holiday reservations soon. There are several holiday dates still open with the exception of Memorial Weekend.

It’s not too soon to begin planning your fall foliage tour dates. October and November are two of our biggest months in Beavers Bend State Park. Many people wait until the last-minute and are unable to secure a high-level luxury cabin in Broken Bow.

Bryce Archey, owner of BrokenBowLakeGuide.com, reports fishing is very good on the lake. We highly recommend you booking Bryce for a wonderful bass fishing expedition. He’s very popular; make your reservations in advance.

Make sure to download our Beavers Bend app. We offer great specials to our thousands of app fans and a give you a plethora of Broken Bow tourist tips.

If you’re a luxury cabin owner in Beavers Bend and are not receiving professional video and marketing with your management company, contact us. We have three-decades of global marketing and media experience. You don’t have to be one of 30-50 cabins on website hoping to get noticed.

Mountain Vista luxury cabin features acres of seclusion, a fabulous 20-mile view and no add-on fees. Many cabins are being built simply as rentals and owned by cabin management companies. Not ours, it’s truly our vacation home. There’s a difference!

Side Angle Side

I’ve emphasized doing your homework before reserving a luxury cabin in Beavers Bend for years. I took a few pics of area cabins yesterday to help you understand how many are marketed in the area.

These two cabins look fantastic on the Internet, marketed with beautiful pictures, all with tight shots. Why do they only do tight shots rather than showing a perimeter property pic? It’s because you can literally spit and reach the cabin next door and a porta potty! They didn’t show this on the website.

Remember the term side angle side from geometry? Yep, I hated it too, but it serves a purpose here. Always make sure you have pictures of all property sides and angles before booking a luxury cabin in Beavers Bend. We provide videos of our property at BeaversBendVacations.com

These cabins are set on a dusty road near a bar with loud music playing on weekend nights. Unless you like hearing Amarillo By Morning blasting at stratospheric decibel ranges at midnight, you’ll probably want to look for a more secluded getaway location.

We have acres of seclusion in the upscale Southern Hills Addition…and no porta potties!

Mountain Vista Unveils New Media With Old Friend

Sherri and I have tried to be on the cutting-edge of technology since building Mountain Vista. Our vacation home has been featured in numerous media markets and enjoyed by many.

We partnered with Mobile Roadie, a Los Angeles media company, and designed an incredible app. Mobile Roadie created apps for the Rolling Stones, Madonna and a plethora of performers, so we felt they could handle us! Our app was the first luxury cabin app in the United States. Thousands have it and enjoy great getaway offers, including the latest news from Beavers Bend on our blog.

When we needed a radio spot to be featured for several upcoming promotions in numerous cities, there was only one choice…

We chose our long-time friend and the best male voice talent in the country…legendary radio host, Brad Copeland. I grew up with Brad and he’s been a great friend since grade school. He began radio at age 12 and was blessed with “booming pipes” even back then.

Tune in and Brad will make you laugh each day during the morning drive on KATT in Oklahoma City.

The Mountain Vista experience you’ll feel when staying at our cabin encompasses many things, including my childhood growing up in Broken Bow. I spent scores of nights watching the sunset aboard a boat on Broken Bow Lake, or around a campfire in Beavers Bend.

I wanted build a great cabin and share those sunsets with others…we did it! The quiet sounds of nature and nightfall in the Kiamichi Mountains is something to behold. Take in a sunset from our deck, you’ll see.

We’re fortunate to share Mountain Vista with many friends. We also share it with strangers who quickly become friends. It’s been a magnificent ride and gets better every year.

There’s a unique bond between many who grew up together in Broken Bow. We’ve moved across the world, but close friends from the past still stay in touch. Perhaps it was something in the water from Mountain Fork River?

I’ve been blessed to have a pal like Brad Copeland since the 1970’s. Brad has a great heart and is an amazing talent. We’re thankful he shared his talent with us, once again.

Thanks Cope!

Sherri and I wish you a healthy and prosperous 2016.

Cabin Management In Beavers Bend

Cabin management in Beavers Bend plays a vital role in the Broken Bow, OK tourism industry.

If you’re considering buying or building a luxury cabin, do your homework before choosing a company to manage your property. There are many things to consider before inking a deal with someone that will take 30-50 percent of your rental rates.

Make sure to assess how many properties the company manages. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to determine that you won’t get much individual attention being one of 40 cabins on a website.

Ask yourself, how are they going to rent my cabin with all the competition on their website?

Scrutinize the fees charged to you and renters by the Beavers Bend cabin management company. New fees pop up frequently and many have gotten creative with the fee names. Renters and owners hate add-on fees!

There are resort fees, restocking fees, cleaning fees, firewood fees, insurance fees, incidental fees and property protection fees...You get the picture, its crazy. I follow this stuff closely and its tough for me to keep up with the latest guest gouging techniques.

Many companies are also charging advertising fees to owners. There’s no need to put up with these unnecessary charges. A cabin owner recently told us they’re being charged to have cabin pictures uploaded to a cabin management company’s website.

The media and marketing background of your Beavers Bend cabin management company should be the determining factor in hiring them. Checkout their online presence and ability to draw attention to your luxury cabin. How will they be able to differentiate your cabin from scores of others on their website?

Simply owning a cabin and hoping people will visit doesn’t guarantee success in the Broken Bow luxury cabin business. Your cabin must have something unique. For us, it’s the amazing views at Mountain Vista. We’re also not penny pinchers regarding luxury amenities and are fortunate to have developed a loyal following through the years.

Many cabins fail because owners refuse to spend money on upscale amenities. Don’t expect a guest to return to your cabin if they’re paying $400/night and you’re giving them generic paper towels and hand soap. If your bath towels and linens were purchased at the Dollar General Store, your cabin is destined for failure in the luxury segment.

It’s expensive to correctly own, operate and manage a luxury property in Beavers Bend. Make sure you have the necessary funds in place for last minute emergencies. Three appliances and a flat screen television going out in a month can sting your pocketbook! Congratulations, your hot tub needs replaced…that’s about $6,000.00.

We’re asked about Beavers Bend cabin management companies on a weekly basis. There are very good and bad ones.

If you’re a current cabin owner or considering building one, contact us regarding cabin management in Beavers Bend. Our media background enables us to offer unmatched professional video services to showcase your luxury property.

Our fall promotion at Mountain Vista has been extend until mid-December. Arrive Sunday-Tuesday and your third-night is free!
