Broken Bow Location / Investment Question

[Alicia Hall]

Hi All! 

My husband and I are about to buy our second STR and we are looking at one in Broken Bow.

For those of you who a) know the area and/or b) invest already in BB and surrounding areas what are your thoughts on buying a property about 20 minutes from the heart of BB/Hochatown. The cabin we are considering is roughly 20 min from all the popular restaurants/breweries/wineries etc. (anywhere from 13-18 miles)

Would this hurt our success we could have in the area not being within just 5-10 minutes? My original thought is not everyone goes to be out and about a lot of people go to the lake/mountains and visit cabins for the seclusion and want to stay in so I wouldn't think so but looking for others insights as well. Another thing I am considering is as the town expands N,S,E,W over the next few years potentially more things could move closer to the cabin - BB is only continuing to grow. 

Thank you in advanced for your input!
