Romantic, Broken Bow farmhouse cabin🌲HOT TUB🌲Huge swaying pines 🌲King bed
Named ONE OF THE TOP 18 BROKEN BOW LUXURY CABINS by Up and Away Magazine in 2023. ☀️
Welcome! Joy in the Morning is an immaculate one bedroom/one bathroom farmhouse cabin in the heart of Hochatown (Broken Bow), OK, that sleeps 1-4 guests.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 PERFECTION This little piece of heaven was absolutely wonderful. From the minute we walked in the door - when music started playing from the TV!! - to the minute we left - everything was perfect. Diana was a dream to communicate with and made sure we had all the information we needed prior to our stay. Not one detail was left untouched in this property! I've stayed in several VRBOs and this was by far the absolute best. Also the cleanest - everything was SPOTLESS. We will definitely be back!!! Jennifer Z
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 This place is so “Serene” - just what we needed. From beginning to end my experience in finding, booking, and staying in this beautiful cabin was the best ever. We will definitely recommend this to everyone! The Ramirezes
THE SPACE:
When you open the door to our professionally designed cabin, your spirit is calmed. The soothing color palette and cozy furnishings will make you want to stay indefinitely. Enjoy the diffused lighting and the backdrop of huge pines behind the cabin through the wall of windows as you enter off the covered front porch, level to the ground with no steps from the circular gravel driveway. Roads are paved all the way to the cabin, so feel free to bring your sportiest ride!
Inside, you’ll find a large living area with designer furnishings, an open, modern kitchen and seating at the farmhouse table in the designated dining area. Just past the main area, you’ll love the bedroom (it’s a stunner), separate from the living area by a door - this is not just a one room studio. The bedroom has a King bed with luxury linens and high end memory foam mattress and French doors to the back deck/hot tub. There’s a separate door to the large, spa-like bathroom, complete with oversized tub, two person shower, his and hers spa robes, a separate toilet closet, Beekman 1802 soap, shampoo, and lotion, fluffy white spa towels, make up towels and wipes, and an eye mask for the sensitive sleeper.
Once you get settled in, you’ll find so many options. Relax on our Pottery Barn sofa and listen to one of our vinyl albums on our throw-back record player (or connect the Bluetooth to your own playlist), or curl up in one of our comfy chairs with a fuzzy blanket and one of our books. You could challenge your loved one with one of our many games, make a meal together in our chef’s kitchen, take the world’s longest soak in our spa tub, or nap in what’s been repeatedly called “the most comfortable mattress we have ever slept on” by our guests.
We didn’t forget about the exterior! The front porch offers oversized egg-chairs for people watching or enjoying your morning coffee. And the back porch... so many options. It’s the best seat in the house for the “show” each evening... the sunsets are a must-see from the back deck. Don’t be surprised if deer come by for a visit... it’s a common occurrence. Relax in the hot tub, watch TV by the outdoor fireplace (seasonal) in the outdoor seating, grill your favorite dish on our propane grill (propane and grill utensils are provided), take a selfie with our new fun wall mural, challenge your partner to a game of corn hole or ladder golf, enjoy the string lights and fire pit when the sun goes down (when drought conditions aren’t present), and don’t forget s’mores around the fire, under the most gorgeous starry sky you’ve ever seen. We are on an oversized 1.3 acre corner lot, with lots of room to spread out and relax.
Also, and most importantly, you will receive 5-star service from beginning to end. We truly want every guest to have the best possible experience, whether this is your first visit to Broken Bow or if you come on a regular basis. We offer assistance with just about everything from recommendations and suggestions on where to go and what to do while in town, to helping plan for important events and helping to coordinate delivery of flowers, cakes, groceries, firewood, etc. Our approach is to treat guests even better than we would ever expect and to provide fun surprises along the way. You’ll have the owner’s contact information from day one, and if you have any questions with anything about our property, the area, or the best steak in town… just ask!
Joy in the Morning is a special haven for those looking for rest, relaxation, reconnection, recreation or restoration - or a little bit of everything. Guests rave that we “have thought of everything” and “we can’t wait to come back!”
We are located in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in Hochatown (Broken Bow), just 5-10 minutes from restaurants, shopping, wineries and breweries, many beautiful trails and scenic strolling spots, Beavers Bend State Park and Broken Bow lake.

*Ours is a NO SMOKING, PET FREE cabin. No exceptions. For the comfort of all guests, please choose another cabin for your stay if either of these are imperative to your stay.
We STRONGLY recommend purchasing the Travel Protection Plan through VRBO. With the constant uncertainty surrounding the travel industry, it’s a small price to pay to protect the costs of your trip should you or someone in your party become unable to travel. We adhere to our cancellation policies outlined here and in our rental agreement, which we require to be signed and returned.

My wife and I recently stayed at this charming one-bedroom cabin, and it was an absolutely delightful experience! Perfectly designed for a romantic getaway, the cabin was cozy, clean, and packed with thoughtful touches that made our stay unforgettable.The interior was beautifully decorated with a warm, rustic charm that instantly put us at ease. The bedroom was spacious and inviting, with a comfortable king-sized bed that ensured restful nights. The living area featured a cozy fireplace, which we loved curling up by in the evenings. The kitchen was well-equipped, allowing us to prepare intimate dinners together, and the dining area had a lovely view of the surrounding woods.The outdoor space was equally impressive—a private deck with a hot tub was the highlight, where we spent hours relaxing. The cabin’s secluded location offered peace and quiet, yet it was conveniently close to local attractions for daytime adventures.The hosts were exceptional, providing clear communication and ensuring every detail was perfect. We felt truly pampered throughout our stay. This cabin exceeded our expectations and was the perfect retreat for creating lasting memories. We can’t wait to return!

This cabin is so beautiful, words would never give it the justice it deserves. The area its located is very beautiful, wooded, quiet, and overall magnificent. I have stayed at several cabins and this one definitely ranks the top if not the best. My wife and I were able to enjoy our lovely weekend with each other. The hosts have definitely been extremely supportive, which makes this cabin worth every penny.

The property was perfect for our stay. We enjoyed sitting in the backyard listening to the sounds of nature in the evenings. The hot tub was a perfect amenity to unwind from the daily activities we enjoyed nearby. The house was very clean and well maintained. Diana was super easy to get a hold of and checked in with us a couple of times to make sure all was good! We hope to be back and visit again!
