Mountain Vista Cabin Views are improved after a major tree-trimming project in Beavers Bend State Park.

We’ve been recognized for years as having one of the premier cabin views in Southeastern Oklahoma and now its even better!

Mountain Vista Cabin Views Are Improved

The deck views from Mountain Vista looking west are over 25-miles wide and near 50 at a distance. Our crews are working diligently this week to open up more on the right side.

We’re elated with the view improvements and it will be spectacular by the end of this week.

Memorial Day Weekend recently opened at Mountain Vista. A few holidays remain available this year. Plan ahead and make your reservations early. Many don’t realize how popular the Broken Bow Lake area is during the year. You should plan early to secure the best cabins.

Mountain Vista only has four weekends available until mid-July. The phone and emails are heating up just like the spring weather in Beavers Bend. There’s a plethora of new cabins popping up near Broken Bow Lake. It’s important to do your homework before choosing a luxury cabin.

Make sure you have a view and seclusion and the cabin is located in an upscale area. You also should pay attention to how close you’ll be to a noisy bar playing loud music into the wee hours of the morning.

“Let It Ring Forever More…”

2019-04-24T15:39:27+00:00March 29th, 2017|travel blogs|

Ah…love this old tune from Electric Light Orchestra. It instantly came to mind after a call we received yesterday.

A nice lady had been calling numerous cabin companies searching for a quick getaway to Beavers Bend. She’d stumbled across our website among “many others.”  We were the first to call her back and others hadn’t for several days.

It’s difficult to return calls when you’re overseeing 30-80 luxury cabins. How’d you like to be the owner of an expensive property? You hire someone to market it and the company won’t simply “pick up that telephone.”

There are tons of wonderful companies to do business with in Beavers Bend State Park. But if they won’t return your call promptly…don’t let it bring you down!

Let it ring forever more

Call us at Mountain Vista luxury cabin near Broken Bow Lake. Unless we’re on an airplane, you’ll be surprised that we actually return calls and emails promptly.

Beavers Bend Cabin Rental Tips

2017-03-28T14:48:44+00:00March 28th, 2017|travel blogs|

A few Beavers Bend Cabin rental Tips as we head into the heavy tourist season…

Many times people only need a one-bedroom cabin when visiting Beavers Bend State Park. There are plusses and minuses to choosing a small cabin.

They’re cheaper. But usually smaller cabins in Broken Bow are located near many others. Tiny lots and scores of other tourists nearby may greet you upon arrival.

When researching luxury cabins in Beavers Bend, pay close attention to how the property is displayed online. Make sure you see a large portion of the cabin property so you’ll know the lay of the land before booking.

Some cabin companies are notorious for only showing a tight shot of the cabin online. When you arrive…it looks completely different. You’re often packed together like sardines. It’s a huge complaint many have when visiting Beavers Bend State Park.

I heard a funny story recently; two honeymooners booked a cabin and didn’t realize they were near a noisy bar with live music. They couldn’t sleep and stormed into the bar to complain.

They should’ve asked the cabin company why there was no mention of their rental being near loud outdoor music.

Our weekends are filling fast at Mountain Vista. Several 2017 holidays remain available, but not for long.

Mountain Vista sits on acres of seclusion in the upscale Southern Hills Addition. In the heart of the Kiamichi Mountains. There are lots of great cabins in the area, but few with a deck view like ours!

Cabin Highway Noise

2017-02-28T19:10:18+00:00February 28th, 2017|Dallas travel, Dallas travel blogs|

Cabin highway noise should be at the top of your list when researching luxury vacation properties in Beavers Bend State Park.

Scores of cabins continue to be built in Broken Bow and many are near noisy highways. You arrive and are excited about a few days in a cabin and surprise…Larry the log truck driver is doing 70mph within a few yards of your vacation retreat.

Cabin HIghway Noise

A few of the biggest disappointments visitors experience when arriving at their Broken Bow lodging choice are road noise and having another cabin nearby.

How can you really be sure your cabin will be secluded away from Larry’s loud tailpipe?

 

Mountain Vista luxury cabin sits on acres of seclusion…away from noisy highways and log trucks. Download our Beavers Bend app for VIP offers and a list of area attractions.

Sherri and I along with our very spoiled Grand Champion Brussels Griffon just returned from a week in Southern California. The weather was actually warmer in Oklahoma during the duration of our stay than at Newport Beach.

Mountain Vista features stunning 20-miles views and acres of seclusion in the upscale Southern Hills Addition near Beavers Bend State Park.  The cabin has been featured in Oklahoma’s centennial celebration book and lauded by TravelOK as “A Place To Stay In Oklahoma.”

Unlike many cabins in Broken Bow, you deal directly with us, the owners, rather than a large management company.

I’ve noticed a dramatic surge in rental property interest in the past couple of months. If you’re considering purchasing or building a cabin in Beavers Bend and need consultation, let me know.  I’ve written numerous articles you can find online about how to market luxury properties.

We’re considering adding and marketing cabins on our website, social media outlets and app. Ask yourself if you’d like your cabin marketed by a company already overseeing 30-70 other cabins.

How will you receive individualized media attention while competing with scores of cabins on a website?

Questions to ask Beavers Bend Property Managers

There are many questions to ask Beavers Bend property managers before building or buying a luxury cabin in Broken Bow, OK.

Stepping out of your comfort zone is sometimes difficult if you have no marketing or media experience. It’ll be worse if your cabin management company has limited digital and print marketing experience.

Ask these questions before signing a contract with any property manager in Broken Bow.

  • Do you personally inspect each cabin before guests arrive or leave it up to the cleaning crew to ensure the property is staged properly?
  • Do you charge resort fees to guests and will I get all or a percentage of this add-on charge?
  • Are you an expert in social media, printing and video production to help market my Beavers Bend luxury cabin? Show me examples.
  • You have 30-50 cabins on your website. Tell me about your background with market segmentation to enhance my chance of renting consistently?
  • How do you juggle owning a separate business along with marketing cabins?
  • What is your background in mobile marketing?
  • Will I get the names and contact information of each guest staying in my cabin if I wish?
  • Will I see each maintenance invoice?
  • Do you or the contractor markup maintenance fees on properties because it’s a rental?
  • Do you show professionally produced videos of each property, including complete perimeter shots?
  • Are you an expert in list, database and zip code marketing? Tell me about your background with this in large cities across the country.
  • Do you publish a newsletter and blog? How many people read it?
  • Will you charge my guests insurance fees? What percentage of this add-on fee will I receive?
