Mt Sherman Retreat

Our family of five loved the cabin. Jeff was an unbelievable host before, during & after our stay. The location is perfect if you like making memories in a secluded & peaceful place. We loved morning coffee on the back porch, table tennis in the game room, Twin Falls at nearby Camp Orr, Low Gap Cafe & downtown shops & restaurants at Jasper (ten minutes away).

our Arkansas family vacation

This is a big old rambling cabin that we used for 13 family members to make memories. We cooked, laughed, played ping-pong, roasted marshmallows, enjoyed the hammock, and went for short hikes (having a 2- and 3-year-old with us meant naptimes in the middle of the day). We even set up tents so some of the youngest of us could experience sleeping in a tent. We heard coyotes but didn't see a lot of wildlife other than birds. The cabin is comfy and welcoming with the caveat that there are a lot of mounted antlers and some taxidermy work, which unnerved a couple of us, but it was workable nonetheless.You will absolutely not need to bring dishes: they have it all. We would absolutely love to return!

Weekend Getaway

We rented this cabin for 18 people, 10 adults and 8 kids. It is 1/2 of mike down a dirt road to get down to the cabin so we didn’t have to worry constantly about the kids being near a road. The room with 7 beds was perfect for the kids to all sleep together in their own room. The large kitchen and island was great for breakfast, and then we spent the rest of the day at the river or by the fire pit. The cabin is rustic but very comfortable for a large group.

Amazing quit mountain lodge!

Truly a great find. We had 6 adults with motorcycles and the riding to and from the lodge was awesome ! Very quiet and secluded with lots of space to hang out. It’s a bit outdated but it just adds to the character and charm. Very clean and a well stocked kitchen with all your cooking needs. Beds were comfortable. Would recommend staying here for sure. Jeff is an amazing host, always available for a quick question. Thanks Jeff for sharing your place with us!

Martin Siblings - 2024

Couple of suggestions: 1) The VRBO listing never mentioned anything about this property having STAIRS. It was a bit of a problem for our group consisting from great grandparents to a new born. 2) There should be blinds or shutters or at least curtains in the downstairs bedroom. Not everyone wishes to wake up with the sunrise.

Great location

The listing was misleading in regards to the number of bathrooms and bedrooms. The listing shows 6 bedrooms and 4 1/2 baths. When we arrived there were only 3 bathrooms in the house and a half bath in the detached rec. room (converted garage). There were only 5 bedrooms and one single bed in the hallway. This made it inconvenient for the 6 adult couples that stayed there. We can only assume that the other bedroom and bath were in the upstairs of the rec room that was locked. There were quite a few spider webs and the house was a little musty smelling. That being said the kitchen was very well stocked with plenty of room and the dining room table was great for our big group. The location and fire pit were great. We would stay there again but we feel like the house needs to be cleaned better and the listing needs to be updated with the correct number of bedrooms and bathrooms.

We had the best time at Buffalo Lodge! We had a group of teenagers and the bunk house was perfect for the boys. We only wish we had more time there. We cooked for a big group and found the kitchen was well stocked. The beds were comfortable and plenty of extra blankets. I truly have nothing bad to say about the lodge, it was just what we were looking for. It’s not for those looking for a luxurious stay, but if you want cozy and low key, it’s amazing. We are looking forward to our next visit!

About the host

Hosted by Jeff Maynard

Host profile image
Have owned and rented my Buffalo River Lodging log cabins for the past 20+ years!
Our family has deep roots in the Ozark Mountains and I inherited my dad's and grandfather's love of fishing, camping and floating clear Ozarks streams. Now I can enjoy sharing these pleasures with guests from throughout America. I believe you will be amazed by the natural grandeur and beauty of the area.

Why they chose this property

More secluded than nearly any other property in the Jasper area, this property provides peaceful serenity, yet remains conveniently located to many of the famous outdoor sites that make the Buffalo National River a top destination. This spacious log cabin is capable of hosting larger groups than other Jasper area lodging choices, with sleeping accommodations for 33 or more.

What makes this property unique

Extremely secluded. Sleeping accommodations for up to 33 or more. Plenty of gathering areas for families or large groups both indoors and out, including a long covered porch with rocking chairs. Game room with ping pong table, campfire area, hammock, large acreage, and outstanding privacy. Plus we provide the makings for smores!
