Peaceful setting - plenty of room

This was our second time staying at this house. It is located in a quite area, beautiful location. The house has plenty of living space. The host, Robyn, responded quickly to questions. I would highly recommend the property to other large families. We had a great time.

Location Close to Branson Area Activities

Great VRBO with lots of room to spread out. The patio with a propane fire pit and hot tub were great for our family. The host was very responsive. Suggest doing an inventory of kitchen utensils I.e. measuring cups etc. Only 15 minutes to Silver Dollar City and 10 minutes to Top of the Rock. Thanks for a great stay!

Perfect House For Family Get Together

We had the most wonderful time visiting family and staying in this home in Hollister. The house was large but cozy with so much room for family and activities. It is 3 levels which granted some seclusion when needed. The pool is zero entry so my young children could easily enter and exist. This house had everything we needed and I would definitely stay here again.

Great house for a large group

This house was great for multiple families with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. We enjoyed hanging out on the patio and using the hot tub. The teens had fun playing pool downstairs. We also enjoyed the neighborhood pool. Would definitely stay here again if we come back to the Branson area!

Great house with lots of room

We really liked the extra room(s) both upstairs and downstairs. It worked well for our family of 4 couples and 4 kids. Property was the best one in the neighborhood. Had a hill next door with no houses, and a great backyard fire pit area.

Great Large family house

Excellent house for families sharing a space together. Great patio & hot tub. Close to Big Cedar. The only thing to watch out for is at night- if you don't have the patio light on, the hand railing ends two steps before you reach the patio, if your not careful, you could miss the last two steps & fall as one of our guests did. We rented two houses and Robyn the property manager was excellent and very accommodating!

Met our needs perfectly

This place was nice and very well stocked with whatever you might need. Just a couple of small things that didn't effect our stay. Hot tub seems to leak so it was turned off and the string lights above the outdoor patio didn't work. Extra refrigerator in garage is running but is only cool and had old, bad food in it. We saw past these things and really enjoyed our time here.

Great Stay for the price!

Such a wonderful place to accommodate a large group! There was room for everyone to spread out! The Owners were super quick to respond when we couldn’t get the exterior lights to work and sent maintenance by. My only suggestion would be to offer more mirrors throughout the house. We had 16 ladies trying to use 4 mirrors…made for a humorous stay! Thanks so much and we look forward to visiting again!

Fantastic home!

When we walked into this home we were amazed at how beautiful it was! So tastefully decorated even for Christmas! Everyone had their own room. Plenty of space for us all to relax. The hot tub was perfect! Breakfast around the table and later board games. The next day was spent at SDC. After a day there another relaxing time playing board games and celebrating Christmas together. Everything in the home was very clean. We had everything that we needed. The host always answered my questions promptly. You and your family would love staying in this home.
