It is dog friendly and plenty of room for all of us. The owners were very responsive and great to work with. It’s a wonderful small town with a great local diner and just a short walk to the local park. ##### Jennifer P.

Close to Harrison if you needed things from a larger city. Nice covered deck, fenced in back yard, nice neighbors and quiet neighborhood. Fit our needs perfectly and would rent again. ##### Clint B.

Great for our 2 large dogs with fenced in backyard. Nice quite safe neighborhood. Close to the Buffalo National River and beautiful scenic byways. About 40 minutes to Branson Missouri. Our host were very nice and helpful, quick to respond to questions or concerns. Would stay again if ever in the area. ##### Cynthia A.

We only had to run dishwasher once for three nights which was nice. They had plenty of trash bags, paper towels, toilet paper, etc. ##### Camille S.

Stayed 29 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pam L., Hannibal, US 17 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family Vacation The house is in a residential neighborhood and feels safe. This is a pet friendly place and that was perfect for us because we have a German Shepherd. It is door code entry so we were able to get in right away, and the property owner was quick to answer questions. If you plan to cook bring your own spices and oil as the only thing on hand was salt and pepper. Also, the pots and pans were older and well used, but this worked for our family of 5 on a week long vacation. Overall, we enjoyed the home and would recommend to families with pets. ##### Pam L. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### scott g. 8 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Large, clean house and fenced back yard! Perfect for families and our dog loved it too! We were very happy staying at this property. It had all the amenities we needed and the location was great. It was clean and had extras that were nice. Our only complaint would be that the front door and lock seemed flimsy, that someone had been locked out and jimmied the door lock maybe. Not sure but would have felt better had that been fixed. Overall we would definitely stay again! ##### scott g.

Highly recommend this Home! ##### Cameron S. Stayed 14 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Becky S. 12 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### No frills escape. The house is cozy and nicely situated amongst all the attractions we wanted to see. If you don't mind a short drive, it is a great way to spend the week. The kitchen could use a few more items to make it a little easier to fix dinner. Mainly a can opener and a cork screw would have come in very handy. Overall though, we had a wonderful time and was glad to find such a dog friendly space. Thank you! ##### Becky S.

The property is in a small town but close to Harrison for anything you need. We had good meals at top rock cafe near the rental. ##### charles g. Stayed 3 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Penny W. 25 Oct 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great home and location This home is great, easy to find. I travel with 2 large dogs and it is hard to find places that accept them. They had a large back yard to play in while I sat on the covered back porch. We had everything we needed and the neighborhood was very peaceful. Less than a half mile away is the city park with a walking track and playground if you have children. If I am ever in northern Arkansas again I hope to stay here again,. ##### Penny W. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2021 ---
