Look no further. Whispering Woods is a peaceful two-bedroom cabin nestled deep within the magical Ozark Mountains, where your nearest neighbors are over a mile away. Surrounded by mature trees and close to the majestic Meramac River, Whispering Woods is your ideal home-away-from-home in the forest. An Inviting, Open Great Room A winding lane leads through the trees, where the lovely log cabin facade and classic front porch of Whispering Winds sit. Open the front door and step into the warm and welcoming great room, with vaulted ceilings and lots of natural sunlight. In the living space, an oversized leather sofa and an ultra-comfy armchair face the large HDTV. In the corner, the wood-burning stove adds just the right dash of coziness to this spacious room. After a day filled with outdoor adventures, your crew will love to curl up here in the evening for a movie night. Through the glass door, there’s also a sunny back porch. A Pristine Eat-In Kitchen Next to the living area is the open eat-in kitchen, complete with a convenient breakfast bar with stool seating for three. Natural wood cabinets surround the full suite of appliances, including a refrigerator, an electric range, a microwave, and even a dishwasher. So even though you’re “roughing it” in the woods, you still have all the comforts of home. This kitchen also includes a dining table with seating for four. Two Private Bedroom Suites Around the corner lie the two individual bedroom suites, each with a comfortable queen size bed and two bedside tables with reading lamps. These bedrooms each have their own ensuite bathroom, with a tub/shower combo, which is ideal for families or couples traveling together that are looking for just a smidge more privacy. A Game Room and Firepit Downstairs is the walk-out basement that has been transformed into a fun game room, complete with a ping pong table, a dart board, and a plush sleeper sofa. Glass doors lead outside to the covered patio and the charcoal grill. There’s even a fantastic firepit surrounded by Adirondack chairs— ideal for roasting marshmallows while watching the sky above that sparkles with thousands of stars. Close to Lots of Outdoor Ozark Adventures Located 2 miles from the banks of the Meramec River, guests of Whispering Woods will have easy access to the nearby private river pavilion that is used for all sorts of activities— like rafting, kayaking, and fishing. We also highly recommend booking a float trip with us while you’re here. Floating is an ultra-relaxing way to experience the beauty of the river and a great way to cool off in the summer. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Massage ### Internet - Available in the cabin: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Charcoal grill - Firepit ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - In a rural location ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Kayak - Optional golf privileges - Table tennis - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Rafting nearby - Swimming nearby - Water tubing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Unit size: 1,000 square feet ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 3:00 PM Contactless check-in available Minimum check-in age: 18 ### Check-out Check-out before 11:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Pets Pets allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know Extra-person charges may apply and vary depending on property policy Government-issued photo identification and a credit card, debit card, or cash deposit may be required at check-in for incidental charges Special requests are subject to availability upon check-in and may incur additional charges; special requests cannot be guaranteed Onsite parties or group events are strictly prohibited Host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property Host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property Safety features at this property include a fire extinguisher, a first aid kit, and a deadbolt lock This property is managed through our partner, Vrbo.

Sep 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Poorly equipped Basic travel items missing, industrial laundry detergent provided, use 1-2 oz for every 100 pounds? How do I measure that from a gallon bottle? Basic amenities not provided. The cabin needs bedroom furniture, no place unpack, 8 days living out of a suitcase on floor. Rented from the prior owner 10+ times, this owner may lose me as a regular customer. Owner seems to be too greedy to provide items provided by every rental I have used, all over North America. ##### Teresa R.
