Check out this ‘luxury cabin’ featured on HGTV that was once a popular Oklahoma Airbnb
It was once highlighted by an extremely popular HGTV program but now the hot vacation rental named “Romancing the Stone” is on the real estate market in Broken Bow, Oklahoma, for $739,000.
“This luxury cabin was featured on HGTV ‘House Hunters,’” the listing on Realtor.com says of the enchanting residence. “It is located in the heart of Hochatown.”
While the two-bedroom, two-bathroom house is visually appealing based on the photos, one of the mysteries is the origin of its name.
“It got its name when we were sitting around a campfire. We narrowed it down to a couple of names, and we figured ‘Romancing the Stone’—since there aren’t that many stone cabins,” listing agent and owner Maureen Kile told Realtor. “It would play on the movie, and it’s something people would remember.”
The film in question Kile is referring to is the 1984 action movie with the same name starring Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner.
Features in and around the residence include:
Two primary suites
Big living room
High ceilings
Gas fireplace
Chef’s kitchen
Game area
Front and back porch
Hot tub
The home was a hot short-term vacation rental on Airbnb that currently has a 4.94 star rating with many enthusiastic reviews.
“This cabin is just beautiful and relaxing!” one fan said. “When we walked into a clean and immaculate retreat. Our family relaxed for a week and enjoyed Beavers Bend. We would recommend to friends or family!”
“Would like to give this Cabin a five star rating,” another commented. “Very clean and well kept, in an absolutely great location to everything Broken Bow lake and Beavers Bend has to offer. I would definitely be coming back.”
“Great spot to get away from the city and emerge in nature,” someone said. “Highly recommend staying here.”
“Had a ton of fun here! Love the big shower, comfortable bed, hot tub and board games!” one person commented. “Was perfect for my family of six.”
Broken Bow is about 235 miles southeast of Oklahoma City.
