Stay at the Romantic Ouachita Rose Cabin

My wife and I had a great stay. It was quiet, especially loved the deck area outside lofted bedroom. The area is beautiful, we enjoyed kayaking on the river and saw a bald eagle! Hosts were great!

We have a family of eagles that live upriver from us, and sometimes when you are out on a river trip you are lucky enough to have one or two fly right over your canoe.

Quiet hideaway

Very enjoyable stay a place we were able to take our animals with us and enjoy being with nature. Very quiet close to the river but not on the river as it looked. It was nice but we did think we would see the river from our cabin

​In the winter when the trees are bare you can see a bit of the river but when the trees are green they obstruct your river view. We do not advertise this cabin as having a river view, but I have changed the description to further clarify this. This cabin is at the far end of our property for privacy and seclusion and is the farthest from the river​ of all four of our cabins. Honeybear cabin has the best view because it is the closest to the river. Sorry you misunderstood but glad you enjoyed your stay.

Little Piece of Heaven

My husband and I had wonderful time at the Ouachita Rose Cabin. The property is absolutely beautiful, and there were endless activities to choose from. We spent our long weekend hiking and mountain biking; we still only scratched the surface. The cabin is right in the middle of so many trails and just a little ways from Hot Springs. Jan was the best host! We cannot wait to come back soon!

Glad you had a wonderful time. When you come back maybe you can find time to go for a river trip, dig crystals, go horseback riding or zip lining. Jan

Private cabin

The cabin was nice but outdated and not very clean. The campground area was beautiful and we found several good nearby places to get in the river and there are crystal mines in the area

Vacation get away

The property was just as described. Our cabin was surrounded by trees, very private. The river was low, had it been higher the kayak trip would have been better. Mother Nature has her plan. The trip helped us unwind and recharge. I’m truly impressed with the young owners, It’s a big property and they take great care. Demetrio & Nancy

Great place to enjoy the river!

Cabin was clean and inviting! The river area was great, lots of amenities for our use. (Canoes, kayaks and tubes). We had a great time floating the river. The cabin owners even came and found us on the river, to check on us after a short rain storm passed over! Awesom !

Just what I needed.

some of the furnishings are outdated but it didn't matter because it was just what I needed. The bed was the most comfortable thing ever, Hot tub was very nice, and the location was perfect. It was such a beautiful location. From the decks you had perfect views of God's beatiful work. The views at the river were just amazing. We loved our weekend getaway and will be looking to book there again.

Wonderful cabin stay

We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It was a quiet, regenerative stay. Amanda was very easy to get a hold of and answered our questions quickly. Loved the privacy and the hot tub and the fireplace. Dog friendly was a huge bonus!

This cabin was awesome. Secluded and had everything we needed. The hot tub was really nice and relaxing after a long day. I feel lucky I came across this gem when I was looking for cabins. Reasonable price and beautiful property overall. We will definitely be back when visiting the area.

A SLICE OF HEAVEN

The Ouachita Rose Cabin is perfect! Equipped with everything you need. The second floor deck is like being in a treehouse overlooking the forest. The new owners, Casey and Amanda, were beyond accommodating and a pleasure to work with. Will definitely go back next year!

Relaxation

Needed to get away from the busy world for a quiet anniversary weekend and this place did not disappoint. Short walk to the river was a perfect spot to set up our hammock. Limited cell service was a big plus but able to still reach the outside world with the WiFi. The cabin was the best one we’ve stayed at and we’ve stayed at a few in Arkansas. The hot tub sealed the deal. The cabin was at the end of a dead end road so we had zero traffic. The owners house was about 1/4 of a mile away so they were there if we needed anything. Will be staying here again!!

Ouachita River House

The house was exactly like the pictures. It was a very nice cabin. I will say that it was a little dusty, but other than that, it was clean. Also, if you are not able to do stairs, I wouldn't suggest this particular cabin, because the only bathroom was upstairs. The property was very nice, quiet, and peaceful. Mrs. Jan was very helpful in showing us some things to do around town. Be sure to check the weather before you go, because it rained a lot and we couldn't play at the river on the property, so you'll want to have a back up plan. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and would definitely go back.

Away from it all

The Rose cabin is secluded as promised! We had a lovely 6 night stay and enjoyed everything very much. Jan and her husband were welcoming and helpful. We were a tiny bit disappointed that you can’t see the river from the cabin, but it’s just a short walk away. Overall, a great stay and we would definitely go back.
Response from VrboOwner on 28 July 2020
Because the Ouachita Rose cabin is secluded it is a little farther from the river, about 180 yards. It does have a distant, seasonal view of the river in the winter months.

Absolutely amazing!

Coming to Arkansas and staying in a cabin on a property we knew little about was kind of scary. But once we got there and met Jan, our worries went away! She was super nice and very helpful! On day 1, we just sort of walked around to get familiar with where things were and to think about what we wanted to do the next day. So first thing the next morning, we headed to the river!! We started off in Kayaks but I soon flipped over but no biggy. The staff was there to make sure I was ok and to get us a canoe instead. We spent most of the day on the river fishing, canoeing, and swimming. There was also a hot tub in the cabin: a HUGE plus. If you get a chance , you should stay here!! You won’t be disappointed. We’re already planning our next trip there.

Cozy Cabin in the Middle of Nowhere

Both the cabin and the property were beautiful. Jan is as friendly as they come and she was very helpful with both our cabin needs and helping us find activities in the area. My girlfriend and I stayed in the cabin at the end of the road, on the edge of the national forest. This is the perfect spot for an outdoorsy couple looking for a few days in the woods away from the world.
