Micro house cabin located near Silver Mines Recreation Area.

Sometimes in the Ozarks, I think we are cursed by not having lots of industries, business, cities, and people., but when I sit on my porch, or around the campfire, listening to the various birds, frogs, cows, and coyotes, I think we are blessed not to have lots of industries, business, cities, and people.
If you are looking for a place to get away, relax, and enjoy a natural setting, this is a good place for that. We are located just one mile from the St. Francis river, Silver Mines Recreation Area, and Mark Twain National Forrest. We are close to places to hike, kayak, fish, and swim. There is an amazing antique store nearby too. There are restaurants in Fredericktown (7 miles away) and Ironton/Arcadia (16 miles). I am also learning about some places to mountain bike in the area.
I would like to tell you that we have lots of fine and luxurious amenities, but we don't, this is a very basic little place. It has a small bathroom with shower, a tiny furnished kitchen, charcoal grill, bbq tools (charcoal provided), electric heat, a/c, and a rancher style wood burning stove, if you want to make it extra cozy. There is a queen bed in the loft that is accessible through a very steep staircase, and a pull out futon that converts to a full size bed with a memory foam mattress for sleeping on the main level.
There is a campfire ring in the side yard. I supply some metal sticks for roasting wieners and marshmallows. These items along with some yard games, and charcoal are located in a small shed near the parking area. I supply some firewood, about the equivalent of a grocery store bundle or two per night of booking. I can sell you some additional firewood when you check in, there are also bundles of wood to be purchased at Silvermines Park/Recreation Area that is one mile from our property.
There is a fenced in yard, and a pet door. Your dog is welcome here. One of my friends brings her cat Cali, who really loves it here, and would stay on if she could.
Okay to let the kids tent camp in the yard. If you want to stay up all night, play loud music, and howl at the moon, there will be no one to complain, but don't be surprised if a coyote answers your call.
This is a micro house, if you are especially tall, claustrophobic, or just don't like small spaces, this may not be your preferred place. I like to think of it as easy camping, you don't have to deal with the tent, or bringing a lot of gear.
Please contact me if you like, I would be glad to answer any questions about the area, or the cabin.
I look forward to meeting you, or if you prefer contactless check in, that is fine too.

Best Regards, and happy trails. -Shirley
