Weekend Trip to Explore the Ozarks - Dockley Ranch
The farm was wonderful. Was visited by goats and an alpaca also several very friendly dogs hung out with me while stargazing. Myke and Claire are wonderful hosts! Very much appreciated the warm cabin this cold December weekend! The hilltop/hammock area has an amazing view of the night sky. So happy to have watched the 2025 Geminids from here and would totally stay out here again.

2 nights at Misty Oak Getaways
I enjoyed my stay at Misty Oak Cabin. It was everything I needed and nothing I did not. I loved the seclusion. I don’t know what a holiday weekend is like, but I think I could count on one hand the number of cars and trucks I saw pass in front of the cabin. With that, I was about 10 minutes away from fishing at Bennett Springs.
Everything in the cabin was neat and well kept. Check in and check out was seamless. Rachel always responded to messages within a few minutes.
Next time I need seclusion, Misty Oak Cabin is definitely on my list.

Weekend Trip to Secluded Airstream Retreat
We enjoyed our stay on Hally’s family farm. The airstream is really cute. The hot tub is a good touch and the covered deck was great during a storm while also providing shade in the sun. The bed was and comfy and we had pretty much everything we needed. There were a couple hiccups but Hally was very responsive. The airstream is located about 30 minutes to Branson and we enjoyed going to table rock lake to swim.

The cabin was well put together, and my family loved the charm of the ranch. Having a hot outdoor shower was wonderful. Even as a family of 6, it seemed like there was plenty of extra room to move around the cabin when needed. The kids loved the experience, and the parents were more than satisfied. Our only gripe is that we didn't plan more time to explore. Next time we'll have to stay a couple days at least!

Halley really has something special here. We were really impressed by the entire property; it was hilly, forested, covered in wildflowers, and overall just beautiful. The airstream itself was very well organized and decorated, we felt so cozy the entire weekend, especially since there was so much rain! The view from the trailer was amazing, we were treated to cows grazing and calves playing throughout our stay.
I cannot recommend this place enough. The hosts were communicative, the bed was comfy and who doesn't love an evening hot tub session. Easily a 5 star stay. We will be back!

2 nights at Peacemakers
This cabin was fully kitted out with everything I needed, including an extra quilt for the bed. Plenty of room for the things I also brought, including my sewing basket and writing tools. I used Verizon for connectivity but did notice a 2-bar wifi available. After kindly greeting me and making sure I was comfortable, Linda left me to find my own peace. I took several walks. This property has a ton of berry brambles and if you time it right, I bet you could add fresh-picked berries to your breakfast. Neighboring land offered views of dogwood blossoms - those carefree night-gowned girls of the woods running together over the hills - and plenty of squirrels and birds to view.
If you do come as a couple, the two twin beds will give you a king-equivalent and I think you will be able to make and enjoy coffee right from bed. Ha! The trundle would easily lower and tuck back under the main bed during the day. Sturdy cottage with a generous porch. Clean toilet.
This home is off the beaten path and has no google-mapped address but is one of several small farms. Roosters kept in touch with each other! And horses in the next farm over.
All in all a great place to land if you are exploring the area or need to retreat for a bit.

3 nights at Galloway Greenhouse
The Galloway Greenhouse (Miss Emma's place), in Springfield, MO is ideal for a single person who needs to overnight in this town. The cottage is very clean, neat and functional. The place is quick and easy to get to, just off the highway. There are many restaurant options close by.
There is minimal kitchen accommodation, just a hot plate. The coffee service is a Keurig. no big deal. Since this is a hipcamp place, we are prepared. I had my little gas bottle stove and french press. I was set. There is a small fridge, great sink and excellent shower.
The bed is fine. It is a single daybed with a soft mattress and soft foam topper. The bedding, pillows and sheets were all clean and proper. Two people cannot sleep on this single daybed. There is a pull-out single mattress under the bed for another to sleep on the floor next to this bed. The bed was very soft, but comfortable. The window and door could be opened for nice airflow.
Outside the cottage, Miss Emma allows a fire pit. She has fire starters and all the firewood you could need to have a great campfire. I can imagine she would allow tents in her backyard for extra guests, supported by the cottage. but ask. That would certainly cost a bit more.
There was great privacy. Your car is parked on-street, in a cozy neighborhood. I felt very safe back there.
Miss Emma was a great host and easy to work with. I will be back and rent this place again when I travel to Springfield.

Wow! I can’t say enough good about this place. My fiancé and I rented the whole campground for our joint bachelorette/bachelor party. The grounds are beautiful and it has a fantastic view of the hillside. Both the cabins are cute and cozy with water and coffee inside. The outdoor kitchens are great for a large group. Plenty of outlets around and lots of grills as well. We did the outdoor movie the first night which was super fun and I highly recommend! We got to feed and pet the goats who were so cute. The hike to the falls is well marked and the falls are very pretty. Claire and Myke are attentive and fun loving and I am so happy I booked this place for our party. All of my friends had the best time and can’t stop talking about how we want to come back!

It was a great retreat for one person. The trail through the woods was well cleared and I enjoyed several walks. Linda and Ron are kind and good hosts. The wifi didn't work well enough for my laptop to connect, but I did have service on my phone via Verizon data. The cabin has both heating and cooling and is well thought out. There are plenty of trees to bring a hammock.

What an awesome Hipcamp stay! The Airstream was clean and stocked with all the essentials, even quality toilet paper! We loved getting to have our doggo with us and appreciated the hot tub after longs days of hiking at Hercules Glades Wilderness. We ordered ribeyes from the ranch and highly recommend. Our city kids got to have a great ranch experience and we are happy they got to see how hard the ranch hands work to care for the animals. The ranch dogs were a major plus! We biked around the property during down time and the views were spectacular. This is a very quiet and secluded stay, but close to hiking, stream walking, bike parks and small town restaurants which was exactly what we wanted. We would stay here again any time we are planning to be in this part of the state!
