Private Resort Retreat: Pool, Sauna, Golf + Pond
Private resort energy by day. Pondside tranquility as the sun goes down. Welcome to Skip A Rock.
Swim in the year-round private pool, cue your favorite playlist on the outdoor Bluetooth speakers, and settle into the covered cabana with a TV and refrigerator. Play mini golf, recharge in the cedar sauna, or let the kids take the slide right off the deck.
Then slow everything down at the Scenic Pond Overlook, where golden hour filters through the tall pines, pathway lights glow after dusk, and fireflies may flicker through the trees. Fishing access is just around the corner of the cabin.
This 5-bedroom, 5-bathroom single-level Hochatown retreat sleeps up to 20 and gives families, friends, and multi-generational groups space to play, recharge, reconnect, and enjoy Broken Bow at their own pace, all about 5 minutes from Hochatown.
⭐️ WHY YOU WILL LOVE SKIP A ROCK ⭐️ Mornings can start slowly here.
Make an espresso or cup of coffee, build waffles with the kids, and decide how you want the day to unfold. Grab a fishing pole and walk around the corner for pond access, or take your coffee down the lighted pathway to the Scenic Pond Overlook and settle into one of four Adirondack chairs while the water sits framed between the pines.
As the day gets going, everyone naturally gravitates outside.
The 14 × 30 private year-round pool becomes the center of the fun. Connect your favorite playlist to the outdoor Bluetooth speakers, swim, shoot hoops, stretch out on the tanning ledge, or relax beneath the poolside cabana with Smart TV and refrigerator, keeping cold drinks, snacks, and the game only steps away.
Someone will inevitably start keeping score on the private 4-hole mini golf, approximately 20 × 25 feet and perfect for quick rounds between swims or a full family tournament. Younger kids can bounce between the outdoor playset and slide off the cabin deck, while the detached game room keeps the competition going with pool, ping pong, foosball, Xbox, and plenty of room to hang out.
When you are ready for something quieter, step into the cedar sauna overlooking the pool with the pond beyond, then cool down beneath the pines.
And then Skip A Rock changes again as the afternoon begins to fade.
Follow the illuminated path to the Scenic Pond Overlook as sunlight filters through the tall trees and the pond begins to glow. As dusk settles in, the pathway lights come on and, during the warmer months, fireflies may begin flickering through the pines.
Come back for a soak in the 7-person hot tub, relax around the outdoor gas fireplace, watch a movie outside, or simply enjoy having everyone together.
It is the best of both worlds: private resort fun when you want it, wellness when you need it, and the peaceful pondside atmosphere you came to Broken Bow for.
⭐️ PRIVATE RESORT STYLE YEAR ROUND POOL + POOLSIDE CABANA ⭐️
• 14 × 30 private year-round swimming pool • Approx. 4.3 ft uniform depth • Optional propane pool heating for an additional fee • Fountain water feature • Tanning ledge with 2 in-pool loungers • 4 additional deck loungers • Pool basketball • 9 × 14 covered poolside cabana with Smart TV + refrigerator • Outdoor Bluetooth speakers for your favorite poolside playlist • Private cedar sauna overlooking the pool with pond views beyond • Large 7-person hot tub • Private 4-hole mini golf, approx. 20 × 25 ft • Outdoor playset • Slide right off the cabin deck • Outdoor gas fireplace + Smart TV • Lounge seating + outdoor dining
The cabana makes it easy to spend hours outside without constantly going back into the cabin.
⭐️ SCENIC POND OVERLOOK + GOLDEN HOUR + FISHING ACCESS ⭐️ One of the most special parts of Skip A Rock is the pond atmosphere.
A roughly 200-foot lighted pathway winds through the wooded property to the Scenic Pond Overlook, a 12 × 12 elevated deck approximately 6 feet above the ground.
Four Adirondack chairs overlook the pond through the pines, creating a peaceful spot for morning coffee, conversation, reading, or watching the light change across the water.
Golden hour is especially beautiful as sunlight filters through the trees, while the illuminated pathway and seasonal fireflies create a completely different ambiance after dusk.
Want to cast a line? Pond fishing access is just around the corner of the cabin for peaceful mornings and afternoons by the water.
⭐️ CEDAR SAUNA + HOT TUB + OUTDOOR RELAXATION ⭐️ When you are ready to slow down, you do not have to go far.
• Private cedar sauna • Sauna overlooking the pool with pond views beyond • Large 7 person hot tub • Outdoor gas fireplace and firepit • Outdoor Smart TV • Lounge seating • Outdoor dining
Start with a sauna session, cool down among the pines, then finish the evening with a hot tub soak beneath the stars.
⭐️ PRIVATE MINI GOLF + DETACHED GAME ROOM ⭐️ There is plenty of built in fun for the whole group.
Outside, Skip A Rock features a private 4 hole mini golf perfect for quick rounds between swims or a full family tournament. Younger guests also have an outdoor playset and a slide right off the cabin deck, giving them even more ways to stay entertained outside.
Inside the detached game room, you will find: • Pool table • Ping pong table • Xbox Series S • Smart TV • 6 bunk beds • Sleeper sofa • Full bathroom
⭐️ ALL FIRST FLOOR SLEEPING | SLEEPS UP TO 20 ⭐️ One of Skip A Rock’s biggest advantages for multi-generational families and groups is its single-level sleeping setup. Every sleeping space is on the first floor including the detached bunkroom, so guests do not need to navigate stairs to reach a bedroom.

All 4 King bedrooms include: • Private en suite bathrooms • Luxury linens • Smart TVs with Roku
With four private King suites, a separate bunk/game room, and all first-floor sleeping, the layout works especially well for grandparents, multiple couples, families with young children, and larger groups who prefer fewer stairs.
⭐️ SPACIOUS MODERN INTERIOR LIVING ⭐️ Inside, the open concept living area gives everyone room to reconnect.
High ceilings, modern furnishings, comfortable seating, a gas fireplace, Smart TV, and views of the wooded surroundings create a warm and easy place to gather.
The living, dining, and kitchen spaces flow together so the group can cook, eat, relax, and spend time together without feeling separated.
⭐️ COFFEE + WAFFLE BAR ⭐️ Vacation mornings should be easy and fun.
The coffee setup includes: • Espresso machine • Dual Keurig with K Cup brewing • Regular drip coffee pot • Starter K Cups • Ground coffee • Sugar • Creamer
The waffle setup includes: • Waffle maker • Waffle and pancake mix • Mini marshmallows • Mini chocolate chips • Sprinkles • Syrup
Make a quick cup before fishing, bring coffee down to the pond, or let the kids pile toppings onto waffles before everyone heads outside.
⭐️ FULLY STOCKED KITCHEN FOR GROUP MEALS ⭐️ Whether you are making breakfast before the pool or dinner for the whole group, the kitchen is stocked with the essentials for real meals.
Cook together, order in, or ask us about arranging a private chef experience for a special night at the cabin.
⭐️ OUTDOOR LIVING UNDER THE PINES ⭐️ The outdoor spaces at Skip A Rock were designed to be enjoyed from morning until night.
In addition to the pool, cabana, sauna, mini golf, Scenic Pond Overlook, and hot tub, you will also enjoy: • Outdoor gas fireplace • Outdoor Smart TV • Comfortable lounge seating • Outdoor dining • Heavily wooded backyard • Multiple gathering spaces beneath the pines
Start the day with coffee outside, spend the afternoon around the pool, then finish the evening beneath the trees.
⭐️ CENTRAL HOCHATOWN LOCATION + PRIVATE SETTING ⭐️ Skip A Rock is tucked into the Pine Hills neighborhood of Hochatown, surrounded by mature trees and a peaceful pond setting just behind the Hochatown Petting Zoo.
You get the combination guests love most:
Close enough to enjoy Hochatown, yet private enough to feel like you actually got away.
Many local restaurants, breweries, attractions, and activities are only about 5 minutes away.
Explore all day or never leave the cabin.
Both work here.

Great Trip! Great Cabin
We had a great time staying at Skip A Rock. It was the perfect size for our group of three families. We would definitely stay here again
