What is your cancellation policy?

Reservations canceled 10 or more days before arrival will receive a refund of the deposit less any processing fees. Cancellations within 10 days of arrival will forfeit the 50% deposit unless trip insurance was purchased. Day-of cancellations or no-shows are charged the full reservation amount.

Do you offer trip insurance?

Is there a minimum stay required?

Single nights are now available during the weekdays.

What are your check-in and check-out times?

Check-in begins at 4:00 PM and check-out is 11:00 AM. As soon as your cabin is ready we'll send you a text with your gate code, cabin door code, and everything you need for a smooth check-in.

Do your cabins have Wi-Fi or cell service?

River of Love Cabins is intentionally designed as an off-grid escape. There is no Wi-Fi and cell service is extremely limited. We encourage guests to unplug and reconnect. In the event of a true emergency we will make every reasonable effort to personally deliver a message.

What should we bring?

Bring comfortable clothes, your favorite person, and anything you'd like to eat or drink. We recommend a swimsuit for the hot tub, bug spray in summer, firewood for multiple fires, and downloaded playlists or movies since there is no Wi-Fi.

We welcome up to two dogs at Creekside Cottage only. A pet fee of $100 for the first dog and $50 for the second applies. Cats are not permitted. Pets are not allowed in any other cabin.

How do the romantic packages work?

Choose from fresh flowers, chocolate-covered strawberries, charcuterie boards, champagne, anniversary decorations, birthday surprises, honeymoon packages, and more. Packages can be added during booking or by contacting us before arrival.

How private are the cabins?

Our cabins are spread throughout 60 wooded acres with each cabin thoughtfully positioned for a peaceful, secluded experience. Your hot tub, fire pit, and outdoor living spaces are designed to feel completely private and surrounded by nature.

Can I surprise my significant other?

Absolutely! We love helping with proposals, anniversaries, honeymoons, and surprise getaways. Use a private email when booking and note it's a surprise on your reservation. We'll keep it hush-hush and have everything set up before you arrive.

Are children allowed?

Most cabins are couples-only retreats. Creekside Cottage is our family-friendly cabin welcoming children of all ages with two bedrooms and two bathrooms.

Do the hot tubs work year round?

Yes! Every cabin except the Greenbriar features a private hot tub maintained year-round and cleaned between every stay.

Are the roads paved to the cabins?

Paved roads lead to the final stretch where well-maintained gravel roads take you into the property. No four-wheel drive necessary.

Are the cabins equipped with air conditioning and heat?

Yes! All cabins are fully equipped with both air conditioning and heat year-round.

Anniversary Ideas in Oklahoma: A Private Cabin Getaway

If you're searching for anniversary ideas in Oklahoma, here's a direct answer: River of Love Cabins offers 7 private cabins on 60 wooded acres, each with its own hot tub and fire pit, plus add-on romantic packages designed specifically for anniversary celebrations.

Rather than a dinner reservation and a drive home, an anniversary cabin stay gives you a full day (or weekend) that's actually about the two of you — no crowds, no shared walls, no rushing back.

Ways to make it a true anniversary celebration:

Add a romantic package — fresh flowers, chocolate-covered strawberries, or a celebration package set up in your cabin before you arrive
Book a standout cabin — the restored 1949 railroad caboose, or Stargazer and Precious Cargo's shipping-container rooftop decks, make for a memorable anniversary stay
Book a massage at the Zen Den — our on-site spot for a couples' massage during your stay
End the night at the fire pit — every cabin includes one, perfect for toasting another year together
Stay an extra night — many couples extend an anniversary stay into a full weekend rather than a single night

Common questions about anniversary stays here:

Is River of Love Cabins good for an anniversary trip?
Yes — it's one of the most common reasons couples book a stay here, alongside honeymoons and proposals. Every cabin is fully private with its own hot tub and fire pit.

Can I add flowers or a celebration package for my anniversary?
Yes — romantic add-on packages like fresh flowers, chocolate-covered strawberries, and celebration setups can be added during booking or beforehand, and are set up in your cabin before you arrive.

Which cabin is best for an anniversary?
It depends on your style — the Love Train Caboose offers a unique, memorable stay, while Stargazer and Precious Cargo's rooftop decks are great for a modern, romantic evening under the stars.

How far in advance should I book for an anniversary weekend?
Popular dates can book up, especially around concert weekends at nearby WinStar Casino, so booking a few weeks ahead is a good idea for your exact date.

Is there anything else special we can do for the occasion?
Yes — a massage at our on-site Zen Den is a popular anniversary add-on, along with a private evening at the fire pit.
