A Perfect Cozy and Secluded Cabin

by Ken and Amy

We have stayed at many cabins over the years in the Hochatown area. This is without a doubt one of the best we have stayed in. It is very secluded and the cabins are spaced out nicely offering an even cozier and quiet atmosphere compared to other cabins closer to town. We saw various wildlife each morning while drinking our coffee on the patio. There was ample entertainment for our teenagers with shuffleboard, board games, puzzles and the arcade games. The decor was spot on and the inspirational quotes throughout the house from Thoreau were a great touch. We will definitely consider this and other Marshmallow Memories cabins for our future visits. Thanks again!

Relax-Reconnect-Repeat

by Wilson/Bryan/Haddabi Family

This cabin was AMAZING! As my granddaughter said-The best vacation ever! We enjoyed everything about the cabin! The pictures on line are on point but seeing it in person is 1000% better. The privacy and peaceful setting was just what our family needed. Thanks to Marshmallow Memories and to Chateau Thoreau. See ya next time because see ya next year is to far away.

INCREDIBLE

by Tia Costello

We have stayed in many cabins in Broken Bow and have loved them all, but this one rises ??above ?? the rest ?? It’s so well done - it’s accommodating, and situated in the best location that is quiet and peaceful, The views are stunning, the beds are comfy and the porch is amazing! Our kids had a blast in the game room with the arcade machines, they loved the bunk room and the fire pit and jacuzzi were a hit! This place is now OUR cabin when we come to Broken Bow, we won’t stay anywhere else. If you don’t stay here, what are you even doing!

Beautiful secluded cabin!

by Swhatley02@hotmail.com

The outdoor space is exceptional. We spent most of our time on the deck or by the fire pit. Our group had a blast. Would definitely rent here again.

Amazing Retreat but...

by Marla S.
As much as I wanted to write an outstanding review unfortunately I have been left with a bad experience. The property and accommodations are amazing. We had a Christmas to remember. Our stay started at the beginning of a freeze in many states. On the day of check in the pipes froze and there was no electricity, totally understandable we had to delay our stay. We were told we would be refunded that day, as we should be. It took almost two weeks for them to issue the refund and a week to receive it. Unfortunately the company chose not to refund the full amount for the day THEY cancelled. As of this date we are still in communication about this issue. It was a great stay but will not do business with Marshmallow Memories in the future due to their shady business practices and lack of transparency. Manager's ResponseThank you for taking the time to leave a review. As you stated, there was no electricity in the area leading to frozen pipes in addition to the water district shutting off service for several days to the area. We did cancel the first night of your stay and refunded you the value of that night. I believe your expectation was to be refunded the average value for all nights booked rather than the value of the night that was actually cancelled. This was communicated to you. Our team worked tirelessly for days at all hours of the day and night to keep your stay intact so you could enjoy a Christmas stay at the cabin with your family under safe conditions. We do not feel that this review was warranted, but respect your opinion.

Chateau Thoreau was perfect.

by Kerry T.
This cabin was everything that it said it was. Loved the wood everywhere. Very much a rustic appeal. We had a family vacation with ages from 10 to 86. We did a river trip in kayaks, walked in the river below the dam and did go-carts. Very nice and enjoyable time. Would recommend it highly.

A HIdden Gem...For Now!

by Troy G.
We had a wonderful, relaxing stay at Chateau Thoreau! The prime location of this cozy cabin keeps you both close enough to the action and energy of Hochatown and Broken Bow, yet also affords you the peace and serenity of nature, seemingly far away from city life. For our family, therein lies the beauty of Chateau Thoreau. We can just as easily spend the day at the cabin, enjoying the numerous amenities; lounging on the beautiful deck/patio, playing the outdoor and indoor games, or simply enjoying our company together in the warm, spacious and inviting living room. Conversely, we can drive into town and eat at the many restaurants, visit the State Park, go hiking and/or fishing, go bowling, or even work our way through the Hochatown maze among many other offerings! If you or your family are looking for the perfect place to spend your time together, look no further than Chateau Thoreau. This place felt like home and will be home for us many times again!

Perfect Weekend Getaway

by Josh S.
We needed a quiet weekend away with the kids within a reasonable drive from northwest Houston. This was perfect! Quiet, private and exactly what we wanted. The rain on and off even kind of elevated the experience. Owners were excellent at communication as well. We will return!

Luxurious Escape!!

by Recent Guest
We usually visit Hochatown twice a year and have for several years now and this cabin is our new favorite spot! Everything about this cabin is perfect! The cabin is decorated so beautiful and these owners have thought of every little thing to make your stay great! The game room was alot of fun and the outside games were great as well. There was nothing this cabin didn’t have! Now I will say it is pretty far out, that dirt road feels like it’s never gonna end but it is so worth it! This is the perfect escape. The kind of place you go and have absolutely no reason to leave unless you just want to! I highly recommend this cabin! We will be back soon!

A MUST STAY!!!

by Karen
We were fortunate enough to book here on fairly short notice. Chateau Thoreau was perfect for our family! It is not directly in Hochatown so access to and from 259 was extremely easy. The views from the living room and back deck were amazing! The entertainment areas outside was perfect for grilling out, or being in the hot tub. Every little detail was thought of in stocking this place. Enough dishes for 12, pots/pans, more than enough towels. There was even shampoo/conditioner, and body wash in the showers. We had four adults and four teens, and there was more than enough room for us all to have our own space, but the beautiful hub of the home, (open kitchen/living room/dining) was spacious enough for all of us to watch a movie, do a puzzle, or just talk. We will definitely be booking here again, and again! Thank you for sharing your amazing home!
