Cabins for Sale in Branson MO |

Cabins for Sale in Branson MO!  What is considered a ‘cabin’?  Many people think of a small log structure in a rural or mountain setting, and they are correct.  However, modern cabins are much more!  They are usually small, rustic dwellings made from milled logs, with simple furnishings.

The interior can keep the ‘log’ theme, or finished with drywall.  Most have a cozy stone fireplace.  Cabins can be on a lake or river for fishing or water activities.  Or they can be very secluded on several acres of woods.  Whether you’re looking for a vacation home or a permanent home, we have an Ozark cabin for you.  Your lifestyle will determine the kind of cabin you want.  Small and efficient or luxurious with an entire wall of glass overlooking the mountains?  You’ve got it!  Price range?  You name it and we can find it.  Since cabins tend to be in the woods, want to know more about well water?  We will help you find all types of cabins for sale in Missouri.

The incredible beauty of the Ozarks is a perfect setting for a cabin of any nature.  The Branson area offers three (3) lakes with hundreds of miles of shoreline…perfect for a cabin!  Take your pick…Table Rock Lake, Lake Taneycomo, or Bull Shoals.   Or perhaps you want a cabin high on the hillside that overlooks the Ozark Mountain beauty.  We can also find Branson cabins that have a private lake!  I know it’s hard to choose.

I lived and worked in the Nashville area for many years, and I remember talking with an architect that was designing a ‘cabin’ for a country music star.  It was 16,000 s.f.  Can you imagine such a place?  It truly was beautiful – made from logs and very rustic.  I know most people would never need or want a cabin that large, but whatever you dream of in YOUR cabin… can become a reality.  Branson offers quite a few golf courses and theme parks if you like these types of recreation, or maybe fishing is more your thing?   There’s enough of either to keep you busy!  We can also find land for sale if you want to build your own cabin.

Imagine living in your dream cabin – and being close to all the Fun in Branson, too.  The best of all worlds!

Q:  What’s the difference in a cabin, cottage or chalet?

A:  Not much difference.  They are all small dwellings – but a cottage can be made from many different materials and located anywhere.  A cabin would typically be rustic in nature and located near water or nestled in the woods.  A chalet is another type of architecture, originating in the Swiss Alps.  They have more overhanging eaves.

Q:  Is it hard to get a mortgage on a log home?

A:  Yes, sometimes.  We just have to dig a little deeper to find the right lender.  But, it can be done.
