Bright, Bold & Built for Big Gatherings: Sleeps 20

La Buena Vida by Memory Maker Vacation Rentals | Sleeps 20

Tucked into the rolling hills of the Ouachita Mountains, this vibrant mountain retreat was designed for big family moments and unforgettable celebrations. La Buena Vida — meaning “The Good Life” — lives up to its name in every detail.

Designed with contemporary Spanish-inspired style, soaring ceilings, and walls of windows, this home brings color, light, and warmth to every gathering. The main level features four oversized king ensuites with no stairs required — giving grandparents and mobility-conscious guests full access to the kitchen, living room, upper deck, and their bedroom all on one level.

Downstairs, a dedicated game-and-bunk level creates the perfect kid and teen zone, so everyone has space to relax while still staying connected.

Whether you're planning a milestone birthday, women’s retreat, multigenerational getaway, or holiday celebration, this colorful escape was built for laughter, comfort, and time together.

Perfect For:
• Multigenerational family vacations
• Grandparents who prefer no interior stairs
• Women’s retreats and girls’ weekends
• Birthday and milestone celebrations
• Holiday celebrations with room for everyone
• Family reunions and large gatherings

Cabin Highlights:
• Four oversized king ensuites with spa-like bathrooms & soaker tubs
• No interior stairs required for main living areas
• Contemporary Spanish-inspired design
• Soaring ceilings + walls of windows
• Two levels of large, covered decks
• Two outdoor bars — including one with swings
• Large therapeutic hot tub with LED lighting
• Firepit with three porch swings
• Game room with wet bar, drink fridge, foosball, arcade & game table
• Separate bunk room with dedicated bathroom
• Outdoor Sonos speaker system
• Horseshoe pits
• Large cul-de-sac lot

What Makes La Buena Vida Different:
• A vibrant design that stands out from dark lodge-style cabins
• Mobility-friendly main-level layout ideal for multigenerational stays
• Clear separation between adult and kid spaces
• Celebration-ready energy with intentional gathering spaces
• Two outdoor bar areas that elevate group experiences
• Designed for connection — not just accommodations
• For additional photos, design details, and behind-the-scenes updates, you can follow along at Memory Maker Vacation Rentals on social

Location & Good to Know
• La Buena Vida is located in the rolling hills of the Ouachita Mountains within the Carter Mountain West development — just outside the Hochatown city limits, offering the benefit of lower lodging taxes while still keeping you close to everything.
• You’ll be about five minutes from ATV trail access, Local 259, The Maze of Hochatown, Chili Dippers Golf Club, and the turn-off for Cedar Creek Golf Course, and approximately seven minutes north of Shuck Me, Mountain Fork Brewery, and Okie Girls.
• Highway 259 is a main thoroughfare for logging trucks, and depending on weather and ambient conditions, some distant road noise can carry. To enhance comfort, we provide sound machines in the bedrooms and outdoor speakers on the decks.

The Experience:
As the day winds down and the mountain light softens, La Buena Vida becomes the place everyone naturally gathers — sharing stories around the table, relaxing at the outdoor bar swings, or laughing downstairs while the kids claim their own space. True to its name — “The Good Life” — this is where celebration, connection, and comfort come together effortlessly, and where memories linger long after checkout.

This property is beautiful and the host was amazing. We needed a few things the first day and she had them sent to the property within an hour. She was so prompt to respond with information and made it a great experience. The bedrooms upstairs were so beautiful and clean- an incredible experience. The shared space downstairs had comfortable beds and we loved the extra space down stairs with games and a wine cooler. We will be back!

Beautiful Home with Amazing Views

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home! The house was clean, spacious, and just as described. One of the highlights was the amazing view—we spent so much time just relaxing and taking it all in. The kitchen was so clean, the beds were super comfortable, and the whole place had a very cozy and welcoming feel. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, yet still close to shops, restaurants, and local attractions. Jennifer, the host was very responsive and made sure everything went smoothly. We’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with a stunning view!

Fantastic NYE stay

We had a large group of 6 adults and 11 kids (2-13). This cabin was a great fit for us with plenty of space. The kids having their own level was wonderful and they really enjoyed the foosball table and arcade console. Communication with the host was very good; she even arranged to have firewood delivered for us. The only critique would be that the kitchen was not quite as well stocked as some other VRBO homes. Little things were missing like salt and pepper, a mixing bowl and lighter to get the fire started. But these are very minor. The cabin is amazing and we would gladly stay again.

Wonderful Experience with Outstanding Support

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful cabin in Broken Bow! The setting was perfect, and the cabin itself was clean, cozy, and just as described. Our host, Jennifer, went above and beyond to ensure we had an enjoyable stay. When we encountered a minor wasp issue, she addressed it quickly and effectively, putting our minds at ease. Jennifer was always just a message away, answering any questions we had almost instantly. Her dedication to making sure everything went smoothly truly made our stay exceptional. Highly recommend this cabin – we’ll definitely be back!
