So cozy and perfect for a two or three person getaway. I loved the outdoor shower too! There’s aromatherapy spray and an essential oil diffuser which made our stay even more relaxing.

We didn't want to leave!
I think we want to permanently move into David's Cabin haha! This is the perfect location to stay when visiting the Ozarks. Not only is the site conveniently located within walking distance to the downtown, but there are also SO MANY amazing nature areas within a less than 30-minute drive. We had the pleasure of staying for an entire week and David & Angelique were incredibly accommodating. The cabin is filled with little surprises to make your stay more comfortable like books to read, extra blankets/sheets/pillows, coffee, clean drinking water, and so much more. All of the little details made our stay that much more special. The bathroom is great! It's very private and showering feels like a tropical experience. We will 1000% definitely be back!

Awesome host and an amazing Hipcamp
I would 100% recommend staying in this HipCamp anytime in you are in the Rolla area, we will definitely be staying here again in the future. David was very easy to communicate with and he made sure to reach out before the trip to make any prior accommodations and answer any questions. He allowed us to park both our cars in his driveway which was really nice of him. David also setup a fire pit and wood for us to enjoy a bonfire, in addition to already have some refreshing drinks for us in the fridge.The outdoor shower and bathroom were super easy to use and very conveniently in a separate roofed off area. The location is great because its in a quiet neighborhood close to bars, restaurants, and a bowling alley. We also had a lovely surprise visit in the morning from Oreo the cat. Make sure to checkout this unique and lovely stay!

Super cool chance to stay in an extremely well designed and built tiny home. Do not pass up the opportunity if you are in the area. The space seems to be designed for the mission of being a Hipcamp. Unbelievably complete kitchen for its size. Great sleeping spaces, and a cool hang out space. I'm a huge fan of outdoor showers, and the outdoor bathroom here is second to none. Hot water, plenty of room, and only a few steps from the front door of the house. I will be back to hit some fishing in some of the national and state parks.
