The Cabin at Big Creek

Getaway to Greener Pastures at this New Luxury Log Cabin in Pleasant Hill

If you’re dreaming about your next getaway from the hustle and bustle of life, you’re not alone. But maybe you’re not exactly feeling inclined to hop on a highway or plane and deal with the stress that comes with a long roadtrip or packed flight. So what’s the next best thing? A local getaway that offers a quiet escape, acres of nature, serene views, and a cozy log cabin retreat that will have you swooning and pushing the reset button!

Located adjacent to Lake Winnebago, The Cabin at Big Creek is the area’s newest completely renovated rental property fit for a family celebration, a couple’s escape, or an intimate micro wedding where everyone can play, commune, and make memories in a distinguished setting. The possibilities are endless, and the property was designed to host indoor and outdoor events to meet any occasion. 

The owners and visionaries behind The Cabin at Big Creek know a thing or two about the area. As residents themselves of Lake Winnebago, they set their sights on acquiring a stunning 120 acres just a quick jaunt away that held an aging cabin on the land. Seeing the potential in it, they transformed it into a magnificent and secluded luxury log cabin with the intention of providing nearby residents the excuse to break away from their everyday routine and surroundings, and for a moment in time take over this sprawling and sophisticated lodge that houses 10+ family or friends together.

Whether you are looking for a one-night escape or a longer term vacation, the cabin is perfect for entertaining, as it accommodates 2 King Suites, 1 Queen Suite, and a Bunk Room, each complete with its own full bath and closet. 

The cabin also hosts a gourmet kitchen, a downstairs game room, and a beautiful double-sided wood-burning fireplace that glows amongst the real logs lining the walls, the breathtaking windows overlooking the four-acre stocked pond, and the custom antler chandelier that elevates the cabin aesthetic so immaculately.

For the indoor fans, you can look forward to cooking in the illustrious kitchen, arcade games in the basement, and couch conversation amongst the floor to ceiling window views, and for the outdoor enthusiasts, grab your ingredients for the grill, your s’mores for the firepit, your fervor for outdoor yard games, and your excitement for water activities, including catch and release fishing, kayaking, and canoeing.

The Cabin at Big Creek is a wonderful, private getaway you can find on both Airbnb and VRBO. And, if you love the idea of a total escape but still yearn for an outing, the location is a mere 20 miles from Arrowhead Stadium, 27 miles to the Country Club Plaza, 30 miles from downtown Kansas City, and a short drive to nearby Lake Winnebago, Raymore, and Lee’s Summit where of course you’ll find a plethora of local favorite restaurants and bars, grocers and more to meet your interests. Enjoy getting away from it all and finding tranquility in The Big Cabin’s unique staycation experience!
