Luckily for us the place was so comfortable and fun with the board games and vegging out TVs we still had a great time! It's the perfect place for a little getaway, it's close to everything we could need.

About the host

Hosted by Matt

Founded in 2022, Cypress Brake Investments is a little family-run operation. Your hosts, Matt and Trevor, are joined by Matt's sister (Krista) and father (Larry) in making sure your stay in our home is a pleasant one.

Although his family originally moved to the area from Iowa, Matt grew up in Mountain Home and moved back to the area from Chicago in 2019. Originally from Stuttgart, Arkansas, Trevor joined him and moved to Mountain Home in 2021. The Prairie House and the Fishing Shack are our first projects and we hope you enjoy them.

Why they chose this property

When we bought this property it was primarily a garage that someone had attempted to convert into a small rental house. The interior was in very poor condition and needed to be completely redone, but due to its location near the White River, Cotter, and Mountain Home we saw the potential to turn it into a cute place for visitors to stay that would provide them more comfortable accommodations than a hotel and room to park their boats. We ripped the entire structure down to the studs (and beyond) and renovated it into a "fishing shack" we hope you'll enjoy.

What makes this property unique

The house is optimally located for visitors that want to be close to the rivers, lakes, and town without sacrificing space to relax. Located right on US 62/412 in Gassville, you can be fishing in less than 10 minutes, in Mountain Home in less than 10 minutes, on the lake in 15 minutes, or hiking or biking in one of the many parks or recreation areas in the area within 10-15 minutes.
