It was very clean comfortable beds and pillows everything needed to shower was provided. I cleaned out the fridge from previous people who stayed but it was easily missed cause it was in the drawer of the fridge. Plan on booking our stay for next year a year in advance so we can get this same property again. Also very quiet neighborhood.
Cute place, host response quickly when air conditioning wasn't cooling within 30 minutes he had guy there and fixed it. Lots of room for 6 people or more unfortunately just my friend and I stayed, overall pleasant place to stay
The property was very clean and had all the amenities that were needed. The property was also conveniently located next to the river. Property manager was very accessible and I was able to get in contact with him immediately. I would recommend this property!
We stayed at The Little Blue to go on our first friend’s group float trip. We had such a memorable weekend! We enjoyed floating on the river and being so close to the river that we could actually walk back to the house when we finished our float. We enjoyed the large out door areas (deck and driveway) to just sit and relax and reminisce. Such a cute house and roomy for our little group. We highly recommend if you want to float but don’t want to spend hours driving to and from the float area.
Property was adequate as we weren’t there to stay at the house but to enjoy visiting with family. Place was clean, pleasant odor with plenty of supplies.
Only stayed 2 nights check in at 4 and check out at 11 clean centrally located had problem with wi-fi but other than that good experience locked self out but property manager very fast at letting me know how to fix the problem I would stay again.
Overall, we enjoyed staying at this property for our long weekend adults-only family float trip. Staying at Little Blue beat the stress of hauling, setting up, and packing up a camper which we have done in the past. Our family enjoys low-key entertainment like a movie or board game in the evening, so we appreciated the access to streaming options. The neighborhood was quiet compared to previous campground and lodge experiences. We would stay here again, if it’s not book, but we would have to look for a larger house if we bring the entire family (six adults and four kids).
Regret the emergency contact was so rude and two hours away
We never got the entry code for the front door in advance. We reached out to VRBO which had a waiting time of more than an hour and we reached out to the property owner by phone and by text. 25 minutes later we heard from the property owner and was given a code. So we had sat on the porch for that time waiting. The next day we cannot turn off the shower. We could turn the water pressure from the showerhead to the faucet but we could not get it to stop. We called the emergency contact whose name and phone number was left in the property . He answered immediately and explained that he was two hours away but he would call and get us some help. We waited a good 8 to 10 minutes and then called him back because he hadn’t contacted us. At that time we were bailing water out of the tub using the wastebasket because the water was coming in faster than the tub could release it. It was becoming very stressful and indeed an emergency situation. The emergency contact person received a call while I was on the phone with him so I hung up so he could talk to a plumber and have a plumber sent to the house. Before the plumber arrived my husband pulled off the knob and managed to turn the water off. I called the emergency person back to tell them that . He said the plumber was in route. I said I really appreciate the help but he might want to mention that this was most unfortunate and could it warrant a partial refund. At that he bristled and said “Get out now. Leave the property now. I’m gonna call the cops. Go. You don’t ever have to come back” and he hung up on me. Within 15 minutes the plumber came and he could not have been nicer or more professional and he took care of the situation. The police never did arrive. We left early the next morning.
We loving coming to VB since my husband did grow up there. So we know many people and just the area.. this was our 4 time this year.
We hope to get our own place to have soon.
The house and location was where we like. Host seas quick to respond to questions. Had a just a great relaxing time. Thanks so much!

The host was awesome, told us where the best grocery stores were and named several restaurants that had great menus. His suggestions were spot on! We enjoyed the home. It was clean and had good amenities. Internet was spotty but that was understandable due to location. Only problem was the window in the kitchen and both walk out doors had no blinds or curtains to provide privacy. So we 6 women did not feel safe.

The listing has the bedroom in room 2 listed as a Queen, it is not. That is a full size bed. I haven't the slightest idea how they got a King size bed into the bedroom it is in because there is quite literally no room to move in there. That said, all I needed the location for was a place to sleep and it accomplished that, though with significantly less bed space than advertised and I ended up sleeping on the couch and leaving the Full Size bed that should have been a Queen to my wife while my parents had the King and my kids had the twins. The floor was very saggy, which is typical of an older manufactured home like this, but everything worked.
Host responded promptly to all messages and was very kind as we noted some damage the prior guests had left. We did have a small issue with insects, but that's just standard for a riverside property in thr Ozarks in August.
