We were beyond impressed with the cabin, it was absolutely beautiful. From the cabin to the trails every inch of the property was perfect! The hosts went above and beyond by even leaving us a newlyweds card. We definitely will stay here again and can't wait till we can come back!

Secluded and Peaceful!

If you’re looking for a secluded cabin to enjoy morning walks on the trails and smores around the fire pit at night, this is it! The location is convenient for day trips to Branson and Eureka Springs. Grocery/dining is close by in Harrison and we enjoyed horseback riding at Rocking Z Ranch. The cabin was well stocked with necessities and special sweet treats. The Hosts are wonderful and our stay at the cabin was just what we hoped for!

Perfect getaway

I’ve stayed in many VRBO properties, but I don’t think I’ve stayed in one more thought out or well done. Everything possible is thought of here and the property manager was fantastic to work with. The property is off the beaten path and you may need a four wheel drive at certain times, but the seclusion is worth those things. Highly, highly recommend.

Nice clean spatious cabin in a secluded area.

I would recommend staying here. We enjoyed sitting on the deck at night looking at the stars and listening to the whip poor wills. We swimmed at the Buffalo, it was too low to float at the time. You have to walk the mini trails around the cabin they were well worth it.

Wonderful Stay!

We had a great time at the Baca Cabin! My wife and I were needing some peace and quiet and to rest a while. This beautiful cabin and property provided a great place for this! Played board games on the wrap around deck, grilled, sat by the campfire, and best of all just sat and talked while sitting in the awesome rocking chairs. Chris and Vanessa had taken care of all details to make our stay hassle free! If you’re needing a getaway, book this place! You won’t regret it!

The perfect stay

Baca Cabin is the greatest cabin I have stayed at . The outside of the cabin is beautiful, but the inside is even more beautiful the large kitchen and the master bedroom.was a big WOW for me. I loved that the kitchen was equipped with everything that you would need for your stay. the master bedroom had a door where you could walk out into a balcony sit down, relax and enjoy the view .. My family and I stayed there for five days and we enjoyed every minute of it specially at night we would go out and light up a fire roast marshmallows, and just enjoy looking up at the stars and listening to the sounds of the night critters. I Highly recommend Baca Cabin you will love it! 😊 Thank you, Chris and Vanessa.

Family hiking getaway

We escaped a big city with two teenage daughters to unplug and adventure over spring break, and Baca Cabin was a wonderful home base for exploring beautiful, rural Northwest AR. We are avid hikers, and the cabin’s location allowed us to take some breathtaking and iconic AR hikes like Hemmed in Hollow, Whitaker Point, and the otherworldly Lost Valley Trail. We also drove an hour to Eureka Springs where we watched a parade and shopped in the lovely downtown. Don’t be deterred by the drive time to anywhere from Baca Cabin because the scenery and culture on any journey make it go by in a blink. The cabin itself sits on a property that offers lovely outdoor space! We set up a high power telescope on the expansive deck and saw stars with a glass of wine in the evenings. The kids played in the creek in the day and roasted s’mores every night. Our hosts even provided marshmallow roasting spears! The interior of the cabin was as described and exceptionally clean. The hosts provided basic linens, coffee pods, sweet and low, salt, pepper, and vegetable oil along with cutlery, dishes, pots and pans, and utensils. The washer and dryer came in very handy after muddy hiking treks. Things to help plan:: 1. There is internet service, but it was spotty on our personal devices, as it is in the whole area. 2. The nearest grocery store is about a 25 min drive so bringing what you need. Wonderful stay! Thanks, Chris!

Very cozy and spacious cabin! Loved how secluded the property was and really enjoyed the small trails on the property. Was great for introducing young kids to hiking, while staying close to the cabin. The kitchen was well stocked and made it easy for us to plan meals and enjoy time together, instead of driving out of the way to go to a restaurant.

Perfectly sized, cabin for our family of 7. Features we enjoyed were the lit back deck, top deck, grill, fire pit. Kitchen was well stocked. Remote location with little cell coverage and slow Internet access. (But isn't that kinda the point for a cabins like this?)

Baca Cabin getaway

The central location worked great for us and our traveling family members. The cabin is nice and updated. It is very remote and guests should be prepared for that and the rural road conditions. WiFi is a bit sketchy at times but we managed. If you’re looking for a remote beautiful location to get away from it all that also accommodates a large group, this VRBO is for you. We had a great time.
