We stayed here for our 43rd anniversary in august. We brought our own kayaks and had to pay as much…read moreas a rental to have them shuttled. Seems like a lot with the room Rate for a single king. Building was brand new but I wouldn't say it was anything noteworthy. There is one closet but no hangers or hooks anYwhere. One shelf that you can set luggage on. Lamp on side table for seating area was unusable as the chain in the switch was gone. Bedside lamps are absolutely out of reach when you are in bed. Refrigerator is adequate but no freezer. Ice for rooms is located in the gift shop so when they aren't open you are out of luck. Hard floors are great but housekeeping needs to be more thorough in getting the sand up. An outside hose would be great to wash sand off before entering rooms. No rugs anywhere we had to use bath mat to brush feet off before getting in bed. The shower curtain was about two feet too long, which was very annoying the first night, but they did replace it for our second night. Coffee cups were too small to accommodate the Keurig machine so if you don't choose correct amount of water you will have a mess. No phone in the room. Overall, for the price I think they could have had more amenities. Like nicer coffee cups and maybe a couple wine glasses. There were no utensils of any kind.

DO NOT RENT from this company!!! We rented 4 rafts over two days. On day two, one raft was…read morerunning out of air before we even started. There was no way to reach anyone so we had to tow the raft the entire trip. We asked for a refund and they refused!!!! They claimed it worked perfectly after they aired it up properly (at the end of our trip!!!) and insinuated I was lying. They offered a gift card instead of doing what's clearly right here and providing a refund. I'm never coming back. You should rent quality gear elsewhere.

The location is perfect - right between Echo Bluff and Eminence-really easy to find! Doc and Susan, the owners, are beyond friendly and did everything they could to make our stay perfect. The cabins are clean, freshly remolded and really nice and prices are very reasonable. The beds are so comfortable, along with everything else in the house! The view from the back porch was beautiful and peaceful. They had everything we needed for our weekend stay - we wished we could have stayed longer! Already have our next stay booked and we cannot wait for it!

Nice little campground in Eminence! My family got a campsite for their camper, and I stayed in a…read morecabin with my family. Campsites for the campers are kind of close together, but the tent lots had tons of room! The entire campground is shaded nicely with beautiful trees. It is clean and well maintained as well. The cabins are decent- clean, and stocked with everything you need. Nothing fancy, but the linens were all clean and the water was hot so no complaints here in that aspect. I didn't deal with the front office as my mother in law booked our stay and did all of that. My only complaint would be the other campers/cabin renters. Our cabin was a duplex and our neighbors were not considerate of how much noise they made. Cabins and camper spots are dog friendly, however it's basic knowledge that your dog must be leashed. Our neighbors did not leash their small poodle, and it rushed my two dogs, one of which was blind, several times. We informed them that because one of our dogs is blind, even though he is a nice dog, he could snap at something coming up on him suddenly. This did not deter them from allowing their dog to continue unleashed. I should have said something to the front office but didn't want to cause any trouble. All in all, a good stay, and not the campgrounds fault about obnoxious neighbors.

Visiting in fall was a stellar idea but I would imagine it's just as pretty any other season. This log cabin is so beautiful! The smell, the decorating details,the porch, everything is the perfect cabin experience. There is a fridge, stove, microwave- everything you need for an extended stay. There is kayaking and tubing available down the hill and the cabin is hunter friendly. I stayed just for a night but my favorite was sitting on the upstairs deck under the stars, wrapped in a blanket.

Fair Winds Cabin Resort was a great choice. It was easy to get to the location . The GPS was able…read moreto direct us with no problem. The Bridge before entering the road to the cabin is finished and cause no delays. The gravel road to the cabins is easy to drive through. Checking in was a breeze since we did not have to stop or wait for someone to let us in the cabin. Your key is a code provided to you for your convenience. We stayed in the Meadows cabin (closest to the creek), which was a perfect size for the family and (pet friendly-$25 fee). (1 king size bed, 2 full size beds, 1st bathroom with Jacuzzi-hair dryer, 2nd bathroom with tub and shower head) The cabin was very clean, good mattresses, stocked with towels and extra linens. Kitchen was stocked with daily essential supplies such as cooking & baking pots, utensils, paper supplies, and the oven even works. The cabin also has board games, iron/board, and cleaning supplies. There a 42" inch t.v. with satellite dish service. The chimney works great and keeps you warm and makes the cabin feel homie. There is a fire pit area plus seating right outside the cabin, grill (charcoal, fire wood available to purchase for $5 each). The front porch is long and has eating table and plenty of seating. About a 5-7 minute walk from the Meadows cabin there is a creek that is absolutely fabulous. The water level is perfect for kids including for toddlers. There is plenty for kids to explore and enjoy the nature experience. Recommend to bring some folding chairs and beach towel especially if you have little ones. If you like astronomy it is gorgeous at night looking up at the stars.The owners have a heard of cows that are very friendly located when you enter the road to the cabins. My 9 year old absolutely loved them. For your convenience and maximize your experience there is NO internet in the cabin, but if you need to connect you can walk near the Lodge cabin/garage area and hopefully you can get some juice. When you start driving into Steelville town you will start getting reception in some areas. Definitely complete connection in Cuba town. There is a Dollar General store (9am-10pm hours) in Steelville town (15 min drive from the cabin) for your convenience and stocked with a lot of merchandise including some shelf groceries. There was a small convenient store in Cherryville main road, however I was not able to go in there since they close at 5 pm. Exploring Meramec Springs Park is a must see. GPS driving time was approximately 30 mins. Take a camera the scenery is gorgeous! If you love fishing this is the place for you. Lots of trout, but recommend to go at early hours to increase your chances of a good catch. The entrance fee was $5 per car. The fishing license was $ 20 for one day. Park personnel do go around checking for your license, therefore it is recommended to attach the fishing license on you where it can be seen visibly (ask for a safety pin when you purchase the license). The Meramec Springs Park Museum is also a good place to stop. It is very educational and kids can enjoy their exhibits (wear a mask). Restrooms in the museum have 3-4 stalls and very clean. Fair Winds Cabin Resort was an awesome experience. Would definitely go back. My 9 year old loved everything about it. The owners are very easy going and friendly.
