WHAT WE LOVE ABOUT THIS PROPERTY:
No neighbors, no light pollution...nothing but you and the woods. Some of us think the back screened porch is the highlight, others say the native stone wood-burning fireplace is theirs. All you wanted was a cabin in the woods with fiber optic wifi? Found it. With style. Blanchard Cabin in the Woods is a classic Ozark getaway situated on 10 private acres and enveloped by National Forest. It is totally private and nestled in the woods, but convenient to all area attractions and minutes from the town of Mountain View.

But please, reach out with any questions. We love them. **Rental Prices are dynamic.
