Great cabin

The property was well cared for, pretty, extremely clean and well decorated. The amenities were great. Loved the retro theme in the kitchen. Liked the extra little touches. The only thing I wish was different is how close you are to the neighbors but that is just a personal preference. We really enjoyed our stay!

Convenient location & so CLEAN!

I seriously have never stayed at a cleaner VRBO. This place was excellent. Very cute cabin feel, love all the wooden walls. Met all of my husband & I's needs. I didn't find one thing as far as house supplies that I was saying "I wish they had xyz". My only minor negative was a lack of counter space in the bathroom, but they have a little table in there that helps hold makeup bags & things while getting ready. It is super close to town, but still feels pretty secluded (minus the neighbors a bit away). Our next trip to Mena we'll be trying to book this place again - if it's not already fully booked!!

Fall getaway

My grandson and I enjoyed our stay at the cabin. Very clean and cozy. Unfortunately it rained the whole weekend so we couldn’t use the fire pit but loved sleeping under a metal roof and listening to the rain. Loved the string lights hanging outside.
