We enjoyed our stay here so very much. It’s cozy and peaceful which exactly what we’re hoping for. We love the whole place and will definitely come here again and again.
Great experience at the cabin. Reminded the family of going to grandma’s house. Hosts were amazing and were very communicative. Short drive from the river and the host allowed us to feed cows and roam the property. We would highly recommend this property!
My mom and I got away for a few days to stop by all the antique and flea markets on the way to Conway. This precious little house was just the place we needed. It had all the amenities that we could ever need, and the property manager was very prompt with any and all communication. Would definitely recommend!
We decided somewhat last minute to get a cabin near the lower Buffalo River so we could do a day kayak trip from Dillard’s Ferry to Rush. It was the perfect place with teens as we were close to enough to Leslie and Marshall to grab a bite to eat that appealed to everyone’s pallet. The house was adorable and everyone was enjoyed their stay.
We had no problem booking.
We were arriving late and let the owner know and they made sure to leave the lights on for us. Just off the highway, was easy to find. Cute little older cabin with lots of character. One spacious bathroom which was fine with us. Plenty of towels and even some toiletries were there.
The only thing I might would suggest to other travelers is to bring an extension cord because not enough plug ins which is to be expected with an older home. Overall, great stay and would definitely stay again if the owners allowed. 😀

Very quiet and cozy but the ac wasn't on its was hot inside,one room had no ac unit the kitchen had no ac unit, one of bedroom doors wouldn't shut are the way, one of the beds was so hard very uncomfortable to sleep on, the remote to living room unit was not near it found two remotes,there was a new ac unit outside under car port and call and told them i put it in the kitchen window,the parking garage front cap doesn't need to be on there cause you have to have a low vehicle to get under it, the darts were old and the other dart game didn't have all the pieces, i would put more games out for customers they have a big enough property and get a comfortable bed and don't put the place has a freezer since the meat is not for sale, and put stuff out that makes the place smell good, it's just suggestion that's all but the owners apologized for the inconvenience and said if we needed anything let them know they didn't even kno we rented it that's what they told us
We had a great time staying at this property for a week in the summer. The air conditioning was strong and cold. The kitchen was spacious and we ate dinner both in the dining room and outside on the the lovely porch. It was decorated so nicely, the beds were comfy, and the towels were thick and soft. The country road was a great place for morning and evening walks and the kids loved feeding the cows and horse. The owner was very friendly and helpful.
We enjoyed this rustic little getaway after kayaking down Buffalo River. It was a great place to hideaway without traveling off the main road. Great for non-campers like us.
The property reminded me of so many childhood memories. There were all the necessary amenities and it was carefully thought out. There were lots of attention to details. The kids were already planning our next trip back. Thank you for allowing us to make memories in your home.
