About this property

Mount Magazine View - Beautiful 4 BR, 3 Bath Perfect For Families, Trail Riding

A clean, beautiful four bedroom, 3 bath vacation home, about half way up Magazine Mountain in the beautiful Ozark Mountains, just minutes from Magazine Mountain State Park. The recently renovated ranch house sits on approximately 7 acres of land and is very close to the many hiking trails in the State Park, as well as nearby Cove Lake Recreational Area, where guests can swim, hike, boat and fish. For those guests interested in trail riding, the house is less than 1/4 mile from Spring Lake Rd (which provides access to the Huckleberry Mountain Horse and ATV trail system) and Green Bench Rd (which provides access to miles and miles of Forest Service fire roads and trails). Side by Sides and ATVs can be ridden from Myra's Mountain Retreat to these two roads - no need to trailer! Check out photos for overhead pics and trail maps showing our location.

The entire inside of Myra's Mountain Retreat has been repainted and the floors replaced with luxury vinyl plank flooring. The kitchen has been extensively refurbished in 2019 with all new appliances, painted cabinets, new quartz countertops and new light fixtures. The spacious den/family room has been outfitted with a new sofa (both end seats recline) and a new love seat/theater seat that both reclines and rocks. The sofa and love seat sit on a beautiful new rug. The family room/den also includes a new 6 seat dining table. The house has four bedrooms, all with new mattresses. There are three bedrooms upstairs and one downstairs. All upstairs bedrooms include ceiling fans. There are two full bathrooms upstairs and one full bathroom downstairs. All bathrooms have new light and plumbing fixtures. Downstairs also has a separate sitting/reading area. We've decorated the house with pictures and mementos representative of the Arkansas/Mount Magazine area.

In terms of amenities, Myra's Mountain Retreat includes 3 TVs (via over-the-air HD antenna) - one in the den/family room, one in the Master Bedroom, one in basement, wireless internet access and has a mobile phone signal booster for Verizon, which provides very good 4G LTE signal. Be aware other carriers' signal reception may be spotty at best. The house also includes Sony Blu-ray players in the den and in the basement (~ 55 mostly family friendly blu-ray and DVD movies in cabinet) , and some games (e.g., Jenga, Yahtzee, Scrabble). Outside, is a deck in the rear and a new Weber gas grill for cooking out with full spare propane tank. We've installed a new dual-fuel Trane heating/air system. In the event of a loss of power, the furnace runs off of propane and is tied into the 8 kW stand-by generator so there will always be heat. The house includes a full laundry room in the basement, including iron and ironing board. Detergent and dryer sheets are included.

About the host

Hosted by Jeff Spencer

Host profile image
We are retired NASA engineers who live full-time in our 5th wheel recreational vehicle traveling the country. We love to travel, read, camp, hike and enjoy the company of friends and family.

Why they chose this property

My father-in-law, J C Horn, was born in New Blaine, Arkansas, a short distance from Paris. My mother-in-law, Myra Lee Hutchison, was born and raised in Paris. After they married, they moved to Memphis, TN where they lived and worked for 40+ years. When they retired in the late 1980's, they built Myra's Mountain Retreat as their retirement home. My father-in-law was an avid gardener and Myra would can and freeze fruits and vegetables grown in their garden. We've enjoyed visiting their retirement home for 30 years. When my wife's parents passed, she inherited the property. We decided that we enjoyed the home and area so much that rather than sell it, we'd turn it into a vacation home for us, our family and friends. We also decided to offer it as a vacation rental as well. We hope guests and their families enjoy it and take care of it so that it will be there for us and for you for years to come.

What makes this property unique

There are many things we enjoy about Myra's Mountain Retreat. We love the rural setting and proximity to the many hiking trails in the beautiful Ozark National Forest. We enjoy that it's only a 10 minute drive to Magazine Mountain State Park where there is a glorious drive around Cameron's Bluff with its amazing views of the Arkansas River valley. The Mount Magazine State Park Lodge also provides beautiful views of Blue Mountain Lake. One can also watch Hang Gliders take off and soar out over the valley below. The Lodge also is home to the Sky View Restaurant where guests can dine while looking out over the valley below from 2500 feet up. Myra's Mountain Retreat also is very close to Arkansas Wine country in Altus, Arkansas. Six wineries make Altus their home and it's a lot of fun to see how grapes and grown and made into wine. Also, given the property's elevation of approximately 1400 feet above sea level it's typically 4-5 degrees cooler than down in the valley. The best benefit for guests is that for the price of a single room at the Lodge, you get a 4 bedroom, 3 bath home!
