The River House is a delightful place to go for a weekend getaway or a more extended vacation. It's a quaint log structure with pleasant decor. It's nice floorplan allows guests to enjoy comfortable group gatherings as well as cozy bedrooms. If you want to prepare your own meals the kitchen has a good stock of basic cookware, but there are excellent restaurants nearby for dining in or carry-out. There's a private patio space outdoors that's well suited for grilling on the charcoal or gas grills or hanging out by the fire pit. Next to the patio is a covered hot tub where you can enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning or a cool drink in the evening. There's both a screened-in porch and a deck that extends out toward the river and they each provide excellent river views. The dock is in good shape and it provides an easy place to catch and clean fish. There is also a platform on the dock that allows easy access to canoes or kayaks.
The owners regularly stay at The River House and are very sensitive to what will enhance the comfort and enjoyment of the property. The local management company is on hand to address any issues that will make your stay more satisfying. The River House is far enough out from town to provide the calm of natural surroundings, but it's close enough to allow great convenience. A commercial river marina with fishing guide service is a five minute drive away, and a full-service marina on Greers Ferry Lake is fifteen minutes away. This place has all you need to provide a truly enjoyable experience!

The Little Red River is in the back yard where you will also find a variety of birds feeding from the feeders. Due to cold weather, we were unable to really utilize the screened in porch or the open porch. But they are roomy and inviting. There are swings in the front yard. There is a boat dock, but you'll have to put your boat in elsewhere. The interior of the house is spacious and inviting. Plenty of dishes, utensils, paper goods, bedding, towels. The grandkids loved the hot tub even in the bitterly cold weather. There is so much to do outdoors in Heber Springs. This is a welcoming and comfortable home to come back to for naps and meals. We will be back to enjoy during the warmer months!
We took my father-in-law and some friends for a long weekend for his birthday! The location was perfect - it felt secluded but was a convenient distance from town, making it easy to grab food or run to the store. The view was amazing, with a neat gathering area around a fire pit (with a charcoal AND gas grill), a super nice hot tub, nice screened-in porch and back deck, along with a really nice walkway to the dock. We loved our stay here and have already talked about returning! This place had everything we wanted and more!
We really enjoyed our stay.
- few boards on porch leading into door off kitchen really need replacing. We used the ramp instead but you need to check those
- suggest vents for moisture relief in the bathrooms
Everything else was actually perfect
They thought if everything we might need!
Clean, cute, and close to everything. Loved watching the birds at the feeders and the river flowing by.
Just wonderful.
We have stayed at this cabin multiple times! It is a beautiful part of the river. The screened back porch will always be my favorite spot! Heber Springs is a neat little town with some good places to eat and some antique shopping. We enjoyed it as we always do!
We enjoyed our stay very much. Everyone loved the dock and even caught a few fish. The hot tub was everyone's favorite. The kids enjoyed the fire pit and roasting hot dogs and marshmallows. The property is close enough to town and restaurants. The beds were very comfortable. We recommend this property and will stay again if we are back in the area.
This stay was absolutely amazing! Beautiful and relaxing! The property owner was easy to work with. Any questions we could have had were easily laid out in a binder. Amazing experience!
A group of us came in town for Harding Graduation. We enjoyed everything about our stay. The cabin was clean and well stocked. There was plenty of room for the 6 of us. The outdoor areas were great. Thanks so much!
We loved our stay at this beautiful cabin on the Little Red River. Everything about our stay was perfect. We especially enjoyed watching the birds at the bird feeders and relaxing in the hot tub. We would love to come back!
Wonderful stay! Everything you need is there. Beautiful views, totally furnished, host has thought of everything. Bed was super comfortable and hot tub was icing on the cake. Trout were plentiful and property was equipped with all the extras. We will definitely be back with friends!
