We love the beautiful view, the privacy of our own deck overlooking the river, the firepit, and the firewood is even provided. We feel so fortunate to have found this amazing cabin. It is just right for us and very conveniently located for us to enjoy the river as well as have grocery stores and shopping not too far away. We will definitely be staying here again."

Ember Shoals Resort | On the White River, Cotter AR

10/10 Excellent

"The cabins at Ember Shoals are brand new and amazing! From quality cookware, plentiful dishes, and luxurious linens, to modern conveniences such as wi-fi, fireplace logs controlled by a wall switch, and a garbage disposal, they are equipped with everything you need! My mother resides in an area nursing home and this was the perfect place for siblings from different states to gather and bring mom in for her birthday. The cabins and RV sites are steps away from the White River’s trout fishing. Sadly, we had no time for that this visit, but we will be back! Thank you!"

She is doing an amazing job, and I can see there differences from the last time we stayed. Hopefully we will meet again in the near future."
