About this property
Stunning New Home at Sky Hawk Ridge, a 185-Acre Refuge ONE MILE to Buffalo River
ESCAPE THE CROWDS to the Great Outdoors!
Sky Hawk Ridge is place of extraordinary beauty, a 185-acre natural refuge at the gateway to Buffalo River National Park. This stunning vacation home is one year old and sparkling clean! It’s traditional Bungalow Style on the outside, bright and open inside. The cabin has breathtaking views of the Buffalo River Valley and manicured grounds all around. The expansive, private-park setting is shared with just three other cabins.
THE LAND
When you stay at Sky Hawk Ridge, you won't stay inside for long. Roam the land and discover the wonders of this beautiful landscape. Enjoy misty morning walks through dew-covered fields. Watch gorgeous sunsets over Ozark Mountains. When you walk along Sky Hawk's long ridge, you see up the Buffalo River Valley to layered green hillsides and distant blue ridge lines. You see rolling meadows with sentinel oaks, cattle grazing in lush pastures, deep green woods ... nature's beauty at every turn.
Explore miles of private trails that wind through dense forests and beside crystal streams. Wildlife is everywhere -- deer, turkey, fox, owls, songbirds, and all sorts of woodland creatures. Be dazzled by spring flowers, blue summer skies, rich fall colors, or foggy winter mornings. Sky Hawk Ridge is a nature-lover's paradise all year long.
LOCATION
Sky Hawk is just off US 65 on the north side of the Buffalo River. Restaurants, canoe rentals and river access points at Grinders Ferry, Gilbert and Tyler Bend are less than ten minutes away, but at Sky Hawk you’re secluded and surrounded by natural beauty -- away from it all.
The entrance is on the Gilbert Road (Hwy. 333), just 0.4 mile east of US 65. The cabin is about a half mile from the entry. Sited at the top of a ridge and flanked by a line of stately, old oaks, the house affords sweeping views up the Buffalo River Valley. The property has 3/4 mile of park frontage, and the Buffalo River Trail is just steps from the property corner. The park trail leads about a mile down to a long, wide gravel bar at Shine Eye Bluff -- the perfect spot to picnic, swim, fish or enjoy a lazy afternoon. (Shine Eye is also accessible by road, a five minute drive.)
ACCOMMODATIONS
Completed in June 2022, this comfortable home has plenty of room for your family or two couples. Stunning architecture and tasteful furnishings make the house memorable in its own right. High dormer windows in the two-story living area and large windows in every room let you see forest and sky all around. The interior is sunny and uplifting ... like the great outdoors. Flanking the great room are two spacious bedroom suites. Separate bathrooms have large, glass, walk-in showers.
There are three other vacation homes at Sky Hawk Ridge. Refer to VRBO listing numbers 1005119, 1468267 and 3613801 for more information. Houses are spaced 500-1,200 feet apart, allowing plenty of separation for everyone's privacy. The land is for all to enjoy, so feel free to discover what lies around the bend.
Sky Hawk Ridge has the finest vacation homes anywhere near the Buffalo River. It's at the center of everything but peaceful and secluded. There are gorgeous views all around. 185 acres of natural beauty are yours to explore. You will love this place! Book your vacation today.

This was the perfect vacation home as the hosts thought of everything both inside and outside. The interior decorating was comfortable but very tasteful. The lawn was manicured with hiking trails all through the acres of spectacular views. I recommend this property.
The cabin was so lovely! Very modern, well-stocked kitchen, and clean-no shabbiness at all. Plenty of firewood and a horseshoes game, as well as a few board games. Heads-up - the pillows are feathers, so you may want to bring your own.
We had a great spring break getaway at Sky Hawk Ridge. The house was clean, comfortable, well-stocked, and dog friendly. It is in a great location for hiking and floating along the Buffalo River. We enjoyed the views, fire pit, and hiking trails on the property. We drove in to Marshall one night and saw a movie at the Kenda Drive-In. It was so fun for our kids. Ron and Donna were great hosts and were available for any questions. We plan on staying again!
This is a modern, relaxing cabin with a beautiful view of the surrounding hills. It has convenient access to the middle stretch of the Buffalo River and canoe outfitters.
We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to the Buffalo River and our stay in SkyHawk Ridge!! Our cabin was beautiful and well stocked. Our hosts were very thoughtful! We are thankful to have been able to vacation with our fur babies. Definitely hoping to return soon!
Came for a float on the Buffalo and ended up enjoying the cabin the most! Enjoyed the firepit and watching two meteor showers in a row! The cabin was spotless, well appointed and comfortable! We will be back!
We rented this cabin for our Buffalo float trip and it was absolutely amazing!! Beautiful place, super clean and accommodating! Location is perfect!! Definitely will be back!!!
Our stay at Sky Hawk Ridge was exactly what we were looking for! The cabin had everything we needed and the property was beautiful and a hop, skip, and a jump from several great swimming holes on the Buffalo. We will definitely be back!
We stayed for four nights in October and had a fantastic time. This is the cleanest and most well stocked house we have ever stayed at. Check in and communication was great - plenty of space for our family of 4. Spent several evenings on the porch watching the sunset and wildlife.
Very nice and peaceful place.
The view off the back deck is amazing. We enjoyed drinking our morning coffee and watching sunsets out there. We will defiantly be back.
My family and I had an awesome 3 night stay at sky hawk, along with our 2 small dogs. The layout was perfect, open, and had everything we needed. The decor was beautiful and all the small details were incredible. The bathrooms were very clean & classy. We especially loved all the board games available and sitting on the porch enjoying the views. The experience was even better than anticipated and we will definitely be visiting again.
This was our 2nd stay at Sky Hawk. We love the relaxing and gorgeous atmosphere. Took a walk on the trail on the property and it was so serene and quiet. The house is super cute, brand new with everything you need to lounge, make dinners or drink wine while looking at the pretty trees. Only thing needed to make it an ultimate reading/ lounging spot would be a couch or porch swing on the back patio. Firewood provided! Owners very responsive if anything needed. Go eat at Springhouse!
Comfortable cabin, tastefully decorated and well stocked. We brought our own food and had all we needed without having to leave the property. Our dogs loved the long walks on the trails.
The privacy and the views were amazing. The tranquility of the entire area was incredible. We loved the feel of the cabin because it made you feel at home immediately. The close proximity to many adventures was another reason for selecting this place. We loved it and hope to return again.
