Merry Christmas From Mountain Vista

Merry Christmas from Mountain Vista cabin in Beavers Bend State Park! 2014 has been a fabulous year for the Broken Bow Lake area economy. Several new businesses have arrived and more will arrive in 2015!

There’s a new hot dog food truck located near Stevens Gap Restaurant. I’ll have pictures and more info on them soon.

A new winery is being built by legendary female professional bass fishing pro, Vojai Reed. Broken Bow already has a highly successful winery that is a tremendous hot spot in town. Girls Gone Wine is an amazing tourist attraction for Beavers Bend visitors and another will certainly bring more visibility and choices for tourists in the Kiamichi Mountains. We’ll have an update on the new winery soon.

We’ve always admired the tremendous philanthropy Girls Gone Wine does for Broken Bow, OK. They give scholarships to high school students and do earth shaking work for rescue dogs in the area with their b’ARK wine.

Sherri and I have been involved in AKC Dog Shows for years and have a top-40 nationally ranked Champion Show Dog. Their love for our four-legged pals really touches our hearts. Thanks for your great work Rhonda, Michelle and Chandra! Make sure you visit Girls Gone Wine on your next trip to Beavers Bend State Park.

Best Broken Bow Luxury Cabins

If you are searching for the best Broken Bow luxury cabins in Beavers Bend State Park, there are many “Best Choices” depending on your requirements.

If you have lots of children, bunk beds may be a cabin feature that resonates with you. Our Mountain Vista cabin is a great fit for children, but we intentionally do not have bunk beds in our vacation home.

Bunk beds would be too tight of a fit for our friends who visit Mountain Vista cabin with us. Our acreage and walking trails around the cabin make it a great place for children to explore while enjoying the scenery in Beavers Bend.

When shopping for a luxury cabin in Broken Bow, OK, there are several factors that you should consider before making a reservation:

1. Make sure you will receive personalized attention if needed. If a company is renting 30-50 luxury cabins, how quickly do you think they can respond to you if you are having trouble starting the hot tub?

2. Even if you have reserved a cabin in an upscale addition such as ours in Southern Hills, chances are you may be only feet away from a noisy road. Our Mountain Vista sits high atop a huge hill, away from the traffic and on many acres of private property.

3. Be aware of hidden charge scams. Many cabin management companies charge extra for firewood, insurance and cleaning. Never pay these charges…take your business elsewhere.

Our September promotion at Mountain Vista gives you $100/night off on Sunday’s -Thursday’s. Take advantage of this special opportunity to see one of Beavers Bend’s best luxury cabins at a discounted rate.

We are only a couple of months away from fall foliage season near Broken Bow Lake. Make sure to reserve your October and November cabin dates soon. The views from our deck are amazing during autumn.

Contact us at [email protected] or 405-535-8055 if we can assist with your next trip to Beavers Bend. Contact us if there is an Oklahoma tourism topic you would like me to mention here. Thanks for sharing our blog and Mountain Vista with your friends!

Beavers Bend Cabin Management

Are you searching for a Beavers Bend cabin management company to market and oversee your luxury property in Broken Bow?

The cabin management game in Beavers Bend State Park is booming for some companies, and often at the expense of luxury cabin owners. Fees, fees and more fees…if you’re a cabin owner near Broken Bow Lake, you know what I mean. Don’t get eaten by buzzards!

Some cabin management companies are charging owners 40% of the nightly rate, plus additional fees for advertising. It’s ridiculous. Many Beavers Bend cabin management companies are even gouging owners with charges for placing photos on their website.

Here’s a few things you should consider before hiring a Beavers Bend cabin management company.

Make sure your cabin management leader conducts site visits and doesn’t just leave this to the cleaning crews. Many of these companies manage 30-50 cabins. Some cabin company leaders go a year or more without stepping into a cabin they manage.
Verify that your cabin management leader is not involved in so many other businesses that the promotion of your cabin suffers.
Evaluate the marketing of your cabin management leader. Is their website outdated and plastered with low-res, cheap looking pictures? Do they use professionally produced video or are they featuring low-budget media?
What media technologies are they utilizing that is unique to the Beavers Bend State Park and Broken Bow Lake market?
Does your Beavers Bend cabin management company communicate with you or simply send out a “fluffy email” every now and then?
Do they provide “extra” amenities for your guests?
Do you really want to be one of 50 cabins on a website? How can they sell yours along with all the others?

Owning a luxury cabin near Broken Bow Lake can be rewarding and profitable. It’s also very expensive if done correctly. Ideally, you should have a media team that can market the unique qualities of your property. With decades of media and marketing experience, we can help.

Tour our website and app. Our cutting-edge technologies, professionally produced videos and Beavers Bend’s only mobile app enables us to reach thousands each month.

Beavers Bend Boating & Coffee House

Broken Bow Lake luxury cabin visitors now have more options for entertainment and a hot cup of Java when visiting Kiamichi Country. A Beavers Bend boating and coffee house has now opened in our area.

I stopped in and visited the friendly staff at Adam & Eve’s Coffee House, Cafe & General Store today. I’m told that’s their real names…Adam & Eve! Unfortunately, they weren’t in while I visited their store.

I was very impressed with the outgoing staff and their sandwich/coffee bar is clean, well organized and a welcome addition to Beavers Bend State Park. Numerous customers were enjoying the food and free Wi-Fi service while I roamed the store. They have a convenient location, across the street from the Beavers Bend State Park turnoff on Highway 259 North.

I hope to meet the Hochatown Adventures staff soon. They’re offering a much needed service to the Broken Bow Lake area. Many of our guests at Mountain Vista have inquired about boat rides through the years. You’re missing out if you don’t hop aboard a boat on Broken Bow Lake! Don’t just settle for the road views of Broken Bow Lake. Explore it, especially the upper north end. It’s breathtaking.

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.

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!

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.
