As Good As It Gets — Broken Bow cabin sleeps 18 with private pool

Broken Bow · Sleeps 16–18 with a pool

The Broken Bow cabin for 16, 17, or 18 guests — with a real, private, heated pool.

Most Broken Bow listings that sleep 18 lean on bunk math and share a resort pool with the cabin next door. As Good As It Gets sleeps 20 in 5 king suites on its own creek-front lot, with a private heated pool, private hot tub, outdoor kitchen, and 5 full baths. If your group is 16 to 18 and someone in it said 'has to have a pool,' this is the cabin.

As Good As It Gets

5 Bedrooms · Sleeps 20 · From $300 / night

Private heated pool, hot tub & creekside game-room cabin.

Sleeps 20 in real king suites — 18 guests fits with breathing room.

Five king bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. That means 10 adults in king beds before you touch a sofa sleeper. Add the additional queen sleeping and the cabin lists at 20, which is why 16, 17, or 18 is the comfortable zone — no bunk-closet gymnastics to hit the count.

The pool is private, heated, and on your creek-front lot.

Not a shared resort pool. Not seasonal-only. The pool is heated for spring, fall, and winter stays, sits on the cabin's private lot, and is reserved exclusively for your group. Hot tub steps away. Outdoor kitchen and fire pit right there for pool-day cookouts.

Group of 25+? Book both cabins for one trip.

Add Sound of Sunshine (sleeps 18, game room, playground, big kitchen) on the same dates and you host up to 38 on one trip — the pool cabin becomes the adults' HQ, the family cabin becomes the kids' HQ. We hold both simultaneously; email once you have dates.

Direct saves this size of group real money.

Airbnb and Vrbo add ~15% guest service fees on every nightly. On a 3-night stay at From $300 / night that's roughly $500–$850 in fees you don't pay booking direct. Same cabin, same owners, same smart-lock check-in — lowest published rate is always here.

5 minutes to Hochatown, 10 to the lake, 3 hours from Dallas.

You're a short drive from Mountain Fork Brewery, Hochatown Distilling, and downtown dining, and 10 minutes from Beavers Bend trailheads and the Broken Bow Lake marina. Grocery run at The Market at Local 259. DFW families make the 3-hour drive up Friday afternoon.

Questions, answered

Plan with confidence.

What Broken Bow cabin sleeps 16 to 18 guests and has a private pool?
As Good As It Gets is the Broken Bow cabin for groups of 16 to 18 with a private pool. It sleeps up to 20 across 5 king suites (5 bedrooms, 5 baths, 5,000+ sq ft) with a private heated pool, hot tub, outdoor kitchen, and creek frontage in Hochatown — 5 minutes from Beavers Bend State Park.
Is the pool actually private, or shared with a resort?
Fully private. The heated pool sits on As Good As It Gets' own creek-front lot and is reserved exclusively for the guests staying on those dates. There are no shared amenities, no other units on the property, no resort pool deck.
Is the pool heated year-round?
Yes. The pool is heated for spring, fall, and winter swimming. Summer stays get the pool plus the hot tub plus the creek; shoulder-season stays (March–May, September–November) get steamy early-morning swims that are one of our most-photographed guest moments.
Can 18 people actually be comfortable — or is it bunk-bed math?
Real beds, real rooms. As Good As It Gets is 5 king suites plus additional queen sleeping — every adult couple gets a king bedroom with a door. No bunk closets, no fold-out math to reach the sleep count. Bathroom count (5) is sized so morning routines don't queue for a group of 18.
What if my group is closer to 25 or 30?
Book both cabins on the same dates. As Good As It Gets (sleeps 20, has the pool) plus Sound of Sunshine (sleeps 18, has the playground and game room) hosts up to 38 guests on one trip. We coordinate the hold so both are reserved simultaneously and run one welcome for the whole group.
How much does a Broken Bow pool cabin for 18 cost?
As Good As It Gets starts at $1,150/night on weeknights and typically prices $1,400–$1,900/night on peak weekends, with a 3-night minimum on holidays. Booking direct on brokenbowescapes.com is always the lowest published rate — Airbnb and Vrbo add ~15% guest service fees on top of that same nightly.
How far is the cabin with the pool from Beavers Bend and Hochatown?
5 minutes to downtown Hochatown (Mountain Fork Brewery, Hochatown Distilling, restaurants), 10 minutes to Beavers Bend State Park trailheads and Broken Bow Lake, and about 3 hours from the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex.
Is the cabin with a pool pet-friendly?
As Good As It Gets (the pool cabin) is not pet-friendly — the pool room finishes and allergy considerations mean we can't allow dogs there. If you're traveling with a dog, book Sound of Sunshine instead: it welcomes up to 2 dogs for a flat $150 per-stay pet fee, no breed restrictions. Full pet policy at brokenbowescapes.com/pet-policy.
