About this cabin rental
Come slip away to a serene setting on seven private acres in the picturesque Ozarks. Our rustic cedar cabin with pine interior is the perfect respite from the stress of everyday living. Starlight Cabin offers a full kitchen (apartment size stove, refrigerator, and microwave) and pantry stocked with essentials such as coffee and coffee filters, sugar, flour, salt & pepper, vegetable and coconut oils for cooking, mustard, ketchup, bottled water, napkins, paper towels, and foil. Dishes and pots and pans are provided. There is a wonderful large deck with a charcoal grill and outdoor dining furniture. After exploring the area, come back to the cabin and prepare dinner on the grill and enjoy dining under the stars. Take in the incredible clear night sky. View the Milky Way while relaxing on the deck. A queen size memory foam bed awaits you in the loft and the soft glow of a Himalayan salt lamp sets the stage for respite and rejuvenation. A queen size sleeper sofa in the living area offers a restful night's sleep. Luxurious high thread count sheets are furnished for your comfort. The bathroom has a pedestal sink and large circular shower with soft and absorbent Turkish towels. A hair dryer is provided. Small batch, organic handmade soap made on the farm is supplied. The living area has a small TV and DVD player. The TV will pick up local public broadcasting channels. A writing desk situated in a little nook provides views of the pasture and woods.
Please note that cell service can be spotty at the cabin. AT&T and Verizon have strong signals. I have received mixed reviews for T-Mobile - some guests do have limited access, others have none. As far as Sprint and US Cellular, I've been told that there is no access. I would assume that all other carriers have limited or no service at the cabin.

Wonderful host! This is a quaint & rustic cabin stocked with everything we needed. We slept so comfortable in the loft and our boys had so much fun there. My favorite t
time was morning coffee and watching the sunrise from the deck.

Peace and quiet is the attraction here. The cabin is nicely laid out and decorated. A great place to view the stars. The river is close by but expect a little drive to get to things like groceries or eating places. The nearby towns have a lot of unique shops. Overall this has been one of my favorite stays and I’d definitely stay there again.

We really loved our stay in the Starlight Cabin. The cabin was clean and cozy with an incredible view of rolling Ozark hills. The extensive deck with multiple amenities made a perfect platform for all kinds of family fun. For a comfy stay near the Buffalo Rec Area on the Buffallo River the Starlight Cabin cannot be beat!

Had a wonderful weekend in this magical cabin. There are so many special little touches to make your stay comfortable and special. Beautiful area for hiking and enjoying nature. Enjoyed the evenings eating on deck and watching the fireflies. And at night there were a million stars in the sky with the Milky Way shining bright. Laura the host was great and would highly recommend this special cabin under the stars.

Super clean!
I’ve stayed in plenty of privately owned rentals and a variety of hotels and this one was the cleanest I’ve stayed in! It is in a quiet place but not too far off the beaten path. It was the perfect weekend getaway before school started back. I definitely look forward to coming back!

We came to the area because it's known to be free of light pollution and good for star gazing. We assumed we would have to go to a nearby Buffalo River campground to see that. Instead, we were delighted to find there were acres of clearing in front of the cabin's deck which meant we didn't have to go anywhere to spend three nights of enjoying God's creation in the skies.

Great cabin
We really enjoyed our stay in this cabin. It had everything we needed and more, plus lots of nice extra touches. Comminication with Laura was great.
The cabin was very clean and the location is great for hiking around and floating the Buffalo river. We also really enjoyed having breakfast on the porch.

Relaxing with great hikes and fantastic host
Before even arriving Laura was so kind and communicative, you won’t find a better host! I love some adventure so I had no specific destination in mind besides somewhere near the Buffalo and something about this little cabin really caught my eye. It was a different area than I have stayed in and in talking to Laura she suggested several different places as I enjoy a good hike. She also has a helpful guide in the cabin that we referenced several times. We ended up doing Indian Rock House Trail at Buffalo Point and it was one of my favorite hikes I have done so if you enjoy hiking I suggest you check it out. (Way back up is serious) We also enjoyed Kaylees Stop just a mile or two down highway 14 for a beautiful outlook spot and some shaved ice.
I have been to lots of places and done lots of things but this was a very special trip that would not have been the same without Laura. The cabin was clean and beautiful and we will certainly be back!

Perfect Cabin for Vacation
My small family had the best time. Mrs. Laura provided so much detailed information, and it was super helpful! They were attentive to anything that we needed and answered any questions. We saw amazing wildlife from the porch of the cabin. The pictures of the cabin does not do it justice. It’s absolutely beautiful! My family and I will be back! Thank you, Mrs. Laura and Mr. Miles, for everything!

Perfect placement
Absolutely wonderful. My girlfriend and I loved it. I work long stretches without a day off and could feel my stress leaving me from the minute we got there. All the small things inevitably forgotten were there. We loved it! Will definitely be back!

Perfect Getaway
This place is awesome! The owners were very accommodating and provided everything we needed. The cabin was so clean and private. We loved our getaway to the Buffalo River!

Great option for Buffalo Point area!
Starlight Cabin is a great option for most! Catches: if you are large (say, taller than 5'10'') the loft and bathroom may be too intimate for your comfort. I am 6 feet tall and bumped my head every time on the ceiling in the loft with the 'bedroom.' Also, you are definitely OFF THE GRID. We have Sprint phones and got abysmal coverage in the whole area regardless of whether we were on top of the ridges or in the valleys. Other than those issues, it's a beautiful and comfortable, well-equipped cabin! Lots of perks including homemade soap and organic eggs from the owners!

The PERFECT “staycation”
I found this on VRBO while I was searching for an affordable surprise weekend away to celebrate our anniversary/early Father’s Day for my husband and our 2 daughters. We only live about 45 minutes from here, but this cabin and it’s location made us feel like we had escaped to another world for a few days! The cabin itself was spotless and the personal touches made us feel so welcome. We spent our mornings enjoying coffee on the front porch and our days on the Buffalo River. Our daughters made fast friends with the neighbor’s hound dogs.....it was kind of neat having them waiting for us on the porch when we got home! My favorite thing about this cabin was the massive front porch/deck..........there isn’t anything better than having such a wonderful place to sit outdoors and enjoy the amazing views! Laura is a perfect hostess.....we’ve had so much conversation back and forth that we found we have quite a few things in common! I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a quiet, cozy Ozarks getaway!

Amazing!
They didn’t miss a detail from the personalized welcome signs, snacks, and wine to the sweetest card wishing us a Happy Anniversary & me a Happy Birthday! The cabin was well stocked with everything you need to stay away with the exception of needing to bring your food and clothes. We loved that they placed homemade soaps and farm fresh eggs for us, too. Cleanest cabin we’ve ever stayed in! Thank you for having us!

Perfect little getaway!
The cabin was the perfect size and so very comfortable! We loved the attention to detail! There was not one thing that we needed (other than a few more days on the deck). Thank you Laura and Miles for this little gem!
