Very good

Due to a situation beyond the property owners control we weren’t able to stay at the original cabin but they acted quickly and moved us to another.
Great service and we had a great time.
This is a beautiful property with a stunning view of the river! It’s set up high on a hill with a accessible area to the river just a bit down the road. Fit comfortably a group of 10 adults. Owner was great to work with and just over all highly recommend booking!

Alesha, thank for staying with us! We look forward to having your group back!
We had a great time. Gravel Bar is definitely a plus, we fished, floated and strolled alot. Current river is a blast! We did the 10 mile float and loved it. Communication w/ Manager was fast and quick. You can not tell you are 10 minutes from town, secluded and you can see the beautiful stars.

Upon arrival, air was not working well and we had to turn the air off for an hour to get it to work correctly. The next morning we had a bed break in the downstairs bedroom from simply sitting on the end to put shoes on. Downstairs bathroom water was reversed on the sink, hot water was HOT. Washer/Dryer were in very poor condition, took multiple times to complete a load in either one. Getting down to the water was quite a trek, we were thankful to have a family member with a truck. Private beach was the best part of the rental. Door out to the deck would not open all the way. The Blackstone had to be deep cleaned by us in order for us to cook our planned meals. When we arrived there was also a note left for us that “they ran out of time” clean dishes in dishwasher and clean towels in dryer. Overall, we made it work, private beach was great, but definitely completely overpriced.
Our group of 9 stayed here for 3 days. Absolute blast of a time! Access to the river is kind of off-roady so make sure you aren’t driving your lowered Honda Civic down there. The hosts are awesome, they answered all of our questions in a timely manner and got us supplies when we were running low. I’ll definitely come back here if I make another trip to Van Buren.

Dalton, we were glad to have you all stay with us! Welcomed back anytime!
This property was absolutely gorgeous & the owner Wesley & his family were amazing, always willing to help us out & there when we needed them! I will say the gravel bar is further away than expected so be sure to bring a wagon to haul stuff down to it. Other than that it’s the perfect little get away & us girls had a blast!

We are happy to hear this! We would love to have you all back again!
Beautiful up and coming cabin with gorgeous view of the river. Very off the beaten path but worth the drive down a few gravel backroads. Would suggest not driving up on motorcycles or in cars that sit extremely low to the ground.
Will definitely look back into renting but will bring an ATV of some sort next time to be able to enjoy the riverfront.

Fine
Place definitely has potential, but is in a desperate need of a deep clean. Seems like there are some areas that haven’t been wiped down in months.
Cabin appeared to be an older updated River Cabin, but had newer Appliances, furniture, fixtures and paint. The moth ball smell was 'overwhelming' until we aired it out. It overlooks the river, with a beautiful view. Unless you plan a little hike, you'll want to drive down to the river and fire pit. Might be a little challenging for a small vehicle. Our stay was to kayak, parked a truck at the cabin landing and had no problems. Would deffinatley recommend, plenty of room and totally enjoyed or stay.

It would be nice to have a house number on the house to make sure it is the correct house. also the directions say to look for a sign stating Riverfront Rentals was not on the road .
Ideal for family with children, lots of room to entertain themselves while adults downstairs. Location is a secluded area, so nice and peaceful! Uncomfortable beds and furnishings! Good towels! 2 NICE bathrooms. Difficult with lights-had to turn a bulb on and off by hand. Might want to label light switches and the hot/cold sink handles in bottom bathroom.
Kitchen could use nicer pots,pans,and dishes.
We would definitely stay again. Did I mention the outdoor shower! A big thank you for allowing us a little later check out so we could enjoy a morning birthday celebration!!
Location is very misleading. No access to river from property. Must drive down road. Premises not very clean. Couches dirty and stained, refrigerator not very cool, door lock broken, Kitchen needs a major upgrade of dishes, utensils. Very musty and smelly. Will not be back. Way over priced!

The photos online are deceiving. The scenery is beautiful but the cabin is quite a hike to the river. Once you get down there, you have to climb down a mud drop off or walk a bit down river to a small gravel ramp. We were planning to set chairs in the river and enjoy but that wasn’t possible at this location. The cabin has nice, new clean floors, the beds were clean and comfortable and the bathroom was adequate. The door on the cabin did not lock as the door frame was completely broken. The cabin is quite old and run down but that didn’t keep us from enjoying our weekend with family. We felt duped after seeing the cabin in person vs the online photos.
We had a great time while at this cabin. The AC was a little wonky figuring out upstairs, but worked in the end. To get to the gravel bar is about a .5 mile journey, not too bad except for the steepish hill made of gravel. It was a little slippery walking down to the bar, but possible. Down at the bar there was standing water which had a lot of insects that did attack us. I don't advise a night gravel bar hang out.
The house smelled kind of like moth balls. When we got home, our stuff and pillows we brought smelled like moth balls as well for a couple weeks.
All in all, it was a great place to have, just a few minor things we had issues with.

Clayton, thanks for the feedback! We will make sure to get with our cleaning staff on the smell to ensure that is not an issue. We hope to have you all back again as we continue working on the overall property to continue making this a better place to hang out.

MISLEADING DESCRIPTION
House - great (except for upstairs bathroom door)
Grounds - all gravel, steep, no grass or play area
Fire Pit - none (there was a fire ring by the gravel bar, but not convenient for evening campfires)
Gravel bar - excellent (but not a short walk- had to drive on terrible road each time)
Internet - spotty at best
Smart TV - I don’t think so! Reception was terrible
Our family loves to play games but the only table was on the deck that has no fan or lights. When we go to the Current, we always have campfires and s’mores. Didn’t this year because we all would have to have packed the wood and fixings for the bumpy ride down to the fire ring and then all gone back to the house at the same time. No hanging out for those late night embers. We will always return to the Current but not at this place.
This property is secluded and a great place to enjoy the quietness and peacefulness away from the city. It overlooks the current river and the short walk (or drive)) to the gravel bar was nice to enjoy the current river and its scenery. The place had all that you need for your weekend getaway. It was clean, had all the amenities you need (even an instapot!), TV and games for your enjoyment. Nice place for a weekend getaway.

Chasity, we love to hear this. We hope to have you all back!
Awesome rehab by hosts of older cabin. Great views of River with easy (with an SUV) access of excellent sand bar on Current for all day lounging. Van Buren very close, as are several must see National Park springs.
The cabin was large and very close to current river. It was a short drive down the hill to get to the gravel bar on the river. Cabin was recently remodeled and finishing touches are still underway.
Had a wonderful time at this property. The property is a perfect set up for a group or family. Our only complaint is the lack of maintenance. The back deck had metal flashing that was turned up and wood was splintered in different areas. These seemed like a true accident waiting to happen. The home seemed to need a good "debugging" and cleaning from that. Other than this, loved our stay. Beds were clean and crisp and very comfortable. View was beautiful. Home was well stocked with lines, soaps, etc. We would definitely stay again, but would suggest a bug bomb between stays and the maintenance items above. Management was GREAT to communicate with.
