1 Bedroom Cottage in Carthage

Our hand-built stone cottage is rustic, simple, straight-forward, and perfect for those seeking a stress-free short getaway from city living or for longer term lodging (that comes with a significant discount.)
PLEASE NOTE: I cannot accommodate any animals inside the house. Because we are a working farm, there will sometimes be farm activities going on while guests are here; and a few people, including my handyman & my part-time caretaker, as well as my husband and I may come and go discreetly as we take care of the land and the animals.The nearest neighbor is a long stone's throw away, so the peace, quiet, and beauty of this farm will gently roll away the demand and stresses of life.
With 4 beds and 1 bathroom, we can comfortably accommodate 4 people, however, for families or groups that don't mind close quarters, we have two cots, so we can adapt to six people in a pinch. (Keep in mind that this is a former hunting cabin - very comfortable, but not luxurious.) There is good wifi and a collection of family-friendly DVD's, games, and a smart TV.
A spacious kitchen allows you to create custom meals – be warned - it has a lower than normal ceiling (about 7'.) The loft is accessed by a steep, narrow, low-clearance stairway that can be difficult for small children, but there is a "kiddie gate" for use to prevent little ones from climbing unexpectedly. There are two steps up into both the bathroom and kitchen. The bathroom has a shower – no tub.
A most interesting, fun time to visit The Cottage is during our annual spring kidding season when the fields are literally "jumping" with baby goats. Normally kidding occurs during May and June.
Ask about our discount for active clergy & military personnel. We are located just off of I-44 south and east of Carthage – due east of Joplin, with easy access to area attractions (complete directions will be given after booking.

Wanda S. Oct 11, 2024 09:57:45 PM
Summary: The cottage was situated on a hill overlooking a valley. So peaceful! All the animal brought a sence of calm. The manager was welcoming and kind. I loved my week at the cottage!!
Quinn H. Oct 11, 2024 03:02:56 AM
Summary: I feel blessed to have been able to stay at her cottage for a very important family reunion. We entered the cottage and were greeted by the smell of fresh bread baking (a gift along with farm-fresh eggs from Merre), and she so graciously accommodated requests and answered questions quickly. It was the best place we could have possibly stayed. I highly recommend it!

Summary: Very peaceful and lots of views of animals and beautiful farm land. The stars at night are terrific because no light pollution from the city. Lodging as advertised and expected. Hosts were gracious, courteous and very caring about giving a great stay experience. If you need to meditate this is the place.

Summary: Merre is a kind and generous host. The animals are lovely. The property is beautiful. We enjoyed our stay.
Michal K. Apr 24, 2023 02:33:50 AM
Summary: Beautiful little cabin on an active farm with a lot of fun animals to look at as you enjoy a spectacular sunset on the balcony. Merre made the check in as simple as possible and let me know about some of the creek access areas around the farm with handy maps to both. Close enough to multiple towns so picking up supplies was a breeze. I highly recommend this location or any of Merre's other properties in the area!
Christy M. Aug 22, 2022 09:34:37 AM
Summary: A nice place to stay and unwind . It was big enough for 2 adults and 3 teenagers. Merre was kind enough to set an extra cot up for us. She had fresh made bread awaiting us, upon our arrival. The girls enjoyed using the fire pit to make s’mores. We went to crystal clear creek & and enjoyed the the animals. Merre is a wonderful host. Our 2nd time staying at her properties. We hope to be back next year.
William P. Aug 18, 2022 02:55:46 AM
Summary: It was great. Merre was a great host. The property was just as described. We loved the animals and the chance to feed them plus the little class on taking care of them. Jill the cat was very sweet. We loved hiking the property and the swimming hole. The historic homes drive and the small appliance museum were fun also. Thanks for the great time.
