About this cabin rental
A true American wilderness experience with total solitude. The Cabin at Black River View sits on 100 acres and has the best view in Southeast Missouri in the heart of the Ozark Mountains. Overlooking the Black River and in site of the highest elevation point in Missouri, you will have no neighbors with total seclusion and quiet except for hearing the gentle rapids below. Newly built in 2016 this state of the art cabin has everything you need to entertain your family and friends. Located on a bluff near the Mark Twain National forest it has access to thousand of acres of hiking, hunting horseback riding, mountain biking, 4-wheeling and ATV trails, but the main attraction is the Black River. Crystal clear water fed from springs with a rock bottom that you can see 12 feet to the bottom, the Black River is a gentle river making canoeing, kayaking, tubing, and paddle boarding all an enjoyable experience. Local attractions include the Ozark National Scenic Riverways, Johnson Shut Inns, Clearwater Lake, Elephant Rock State Park, and Sam A. Baker state park. Just two and half hours from St. Louis.

We’ve stayed in this area and Current River before and if you want seclusion this is your spot. All the luxuries of home but in the middle of nowhere. Side by side or four wheeler is almost a requirement. Average truck would not make it all the way to the river. Great hosts and property manager. Cabin view is second to none.

Lovely facility which my 7 year old niece described as being in the middle of nowhere. Was perfect for the six adults and three children who gathered there to see the total solar eclipse--which we did get to see.
Situated so that we didn't see the on site owners or their guests.
On arrival it was clear the place had not been vacuumed for a while (lots of dead lady bugs) and a couple other minor maintenance things, which I shared with the property manager.
Fantastic setting, lovely place.

Off the grid feel with all of the amenities of home! Really cool property, had fun shooting and hiking and teaching the grandparents how to "offroad" down to the river!!! Enjoyed by the entire family. Its about 50mins to Johnsons shut ins but still a very doable day hike trip. Would lovw to return!!

Had a great time at the cabin. This will be our 4th stay and we will definitely be back. AC and ice machine worked great. Rode ATV's all over, floated the beautiful Black River and enjoyed the view. Best rental property in southeast Missouri imo.

We have stayed at this house two years in a row now. It is a wonderful place to stay for our family outing. We take our side by side's and enjoy the river below.

This was our family’s second time staying at the cabin. We love being able to enjoy the comfort and amenities of the cabin while being in such a remote location. I could sit on the porch and stare out at the view all day long. It’s a super special place!

It took us 3hrs to find our cabin. We expected the long travel from TX to Missouri but we didn't anticipate it taking us 3hrs to locate the cabin after arriving. My husband, son and I all reached out to Jeff, the property manager, for help with no response. Finally when he did answer he hung up on us with never reaching back out to us or answering our calls. We did finally find the cabin with the help of our son's navigation skills. Once arriving we are hit with another problem, no working air conditioner or ice machine... Luckily for us the owner, Tim, was there and worked his tail off to get it fixed. Our 1st night was pretty warm with only using fans, Tim supplied for us. We also had a bag of ice in the freezer since no ice machine. Tim was fantastic and we greatly appreciated the lengths he went to to make our stay enjoyable after learning all we had been through. The AC was back up and running at full capacity on Tuesday. With all this we still had an incredible time! Making memories with our grandson and enjoying family time. We would definitely recommend this property and hope to return ourselves one day.
THANK YOU, TIM!

This property was exactly what we were looking for….private and remote space to be able to bring our dogs and allow our son and his friends to enjoy time on the river and ATVs.

Property owner very easy to work with. Amazing view. The kid had fun playing in the crystal clear river. Very relaxing place to spend time with family and friends.

The view alone was worth the booking, we spent mornings with coffee and sunsets just watching clouds roll through the valley because it was beautiful. The cabin itself is very nicely appointed, the photos don't do it justice! Major plus that there's a dedicated icemaker. Access to the river does require a 4wd vehicle to make it easy and quick, at which point the cabin location is really excellent. Walking is possible but the steep grade makes it a chore if that's your only means to get to the river. Excellent instructions for the cabin, lists of things to do and communication from the owner.

We took a float trip to the Black River and stayed here for an extended weekend. It was perfect. The view was absolutely amazing. The pictures can't even do it justice.
The cabin was clean, stocked, and well maintained. Even though we spent most of our time outdoors, it was a nice escape from the heat. The canopy and chairs provided were a nice touch.
While the cabin is great, it's the location and atmosphere that set this place apart. The cabin is totally secluded with easy access to the river via hike, ATV, or truck (4WD is a must to get to the river). I hiked the trail up and down 3 times and, while it has some steep terrain, if you take your time it's not too bad.
All in all, there is nothing I would change about the cabin. We've been taking a yearly float trip for the past 8 years, and this was far and away the best cabin experience. We were all hopeful to visit again.

This is our 3rd time renting this property for an outdoor adventure weekend. We floated the Black River and rode ATVs and UTVs all over the place. This place has so many options for a good time. I see they are building another cabin on the property which should be twice the fun. The pictures of this place never do it justice. We will be back again next year.

Amazing Family Getaway
We had 9 adult family members together for a weekend of floating the Black River — this house was the perfect home base! We loved the beautiful river views and the house was nice with all the accommodations needed.
We went down to the river per the instructions from the house the first evening and agree that you need 4-wheel drive. We even parked our SUV on the creek bed and walked the approx. .25 mile to the river.
We used two different river outfitters — Jeff’s Canoe from Annapolis, it was a great float with beautiful bluffs, very convenient from the house. The next day, we went to Franklin’s out of Lesterville — a further drive and it was much busier on that part of the river, busier spot and it was a Saturday. We still enjoyed the river and had time to check our Johnson Shut-ins and Elephant Rock State Park — both worth a visit if you’re in the area!
We made all our meals at the house - grilled and made use of the big kitchen. It’s the perfect spot for a big family gathering!

Relaxing Getaway
This charming cabin is spacious and includes all modern amenities. The view of the river valley is lovely and inspiring…a great example of God’s creation! The secluded location provides for privacy, but encounters with the locals prove friendly and helpful. Be prepared for a rugged trek to the river, but it’s worth the effort. We would definitely come here again.

Relaxing
Property was perfect for a long weekend to just relax and enjoy time with family. Just sitting outside by the campfire and laughing was well worth the trip.
My wife and are are already looking at when we can go back again for a longer stay. Will make sure to bring side by side this time now that I know the road better to the cabin.
Would highly recommend if looking for a quiet relaxing weekend.

Amazing secluded getaway
We had an amazing vacation at the cabin. It is the most secluded we've ever felt in the continental US. The stars were absolutely brilliant at night. The view is gorgeous. The cabin is well-maintained and clean. The property manager is responsive to texts and very helpful. Would love to come again!!

Wonderful week away in nature
We had a wonderful time communing with the Black River from our cabin high on the hill. The view was unparalleled and we enjoyed the feeling of being truly isolated. The cabin was well appointed and made for a very comfortable stay. Jeff made himself available for any questions that came up for us. We would definitely recommend this cabin to others looking to get away from it all and have a first rate experience on the Black River. We hope to return in the future.

Modern Cabin in Mid-Missouri w/ a Great View!
We had a blast at this modern cabin in mid-Missouri that has a great view overlooking the Black River. Cabin has all the creature comforts (even satellite TV to catch weekend football - MIZ!) and is a short hike downhill to the creek. If you go to the river, make sure you have waterproof hiking boots. The terrain is steep, and there's not a clear, dry way to the inner river banks. Worth it though, as we had plenty of fun making our own log bridges.
One word of caution, go over the directions to the cabin prior to leaving your house, and print the written directions provided by the owner. Different GPS' (Google vs. Apple vs. Other) take different addresses to get to the cabin (Redford vs. Annapolis vs. Ellington). We found that out the hard way, but on the bright side it was simply an extended road trip with friends and some good tunes. Also, final miles of road are gravel. We advise taking an SUV with good tires to handle the loose gravel and steep grades at times.
Overall, a great location to get in some much needed R&R.
