About this property

Peaceful Cabin Steps Away From The Creek, Convenient Access To ATV Trails!

Tucked into the woods with peaceful privacy, this fully furnished 2-bedroom, 1-bath cabin offers the perfect blend of quiet retreat and easy highway access.

Step out of your car and you immediately hear the rushing sound of the Big Fork Creek flowing, year-round just behind the cabin. A beautiful waterfall cascades in the backyard, creating the kind of relaxing backdrop you simply can’t replicate.

Inside, everything is ready for a comfortable stay. The cabin is completely furnished with fresh bed linens, towels, a fully equipped kitchen (dishes, cookware, refrigerator, gas stove), dining area, cozy living room with Smart TV streaming, DVD player, DVD library, and game closet for family fun. There is a washer and dryer for added convenience.

Outside is where this place really shines. Enjoy mornings on the covered porch and evenings gathered around the decorated firepit area, complete with string lights for nighttime ambiance — perfect for s’mores, conversation, and unwinding under the stars.

Conveniently located next to our full hook-up RV campground. If you are staying with a group, you can easily ride from campsites to the cabin on your ATVs or off road vehicles. Easy access to nearby ATV trails, including the Wolf Pen Gap and Fouche Mountain trails. No need to trailer, you can ride directly from our campground. Check the US Forest Service website for exact open and closure dates. This cabin offers the best of comfort, nature, and adventure all in one stay.

Whether you’re here to relax by the waterfall, hike the beautiful Ouachita Mountains, or ride all day and come back to a glowing fire, this is your Arkansas getaway.

The best aspect of this cabin is the creek and waterfall in the back. It's pretty remote, 20 miles from nearest town, but that makes it pretty nice. We very much enjoyed the stay and plan to go back.

Nice stay

Nice cabin. There were minor issue with the oven not working and the cell booster being out, but we were notified before our stay and we were able to make adjustments.

The cabin was advertised as quiet and peaceful. Unfortunately this wasn’t our experience half of our stay. We didn’t know that the creek behind the cabin would be under construction by a bulldozer from 7 a.m.-3:30 p.m., almost the whole Saturday! If we would have been made aware we could’ve booked another time. The smell of the exhaust was nauseating, the sound was awful, and the water clarity was horrible.

Great stay!!!

This was a great place to stay! Most importantly to me, the house was very clean. The location is beautiful and there is a great little restaurant very nearby. Owner was very responsive to questions. My only complaint is that I didn’t realize there was no WiFi or TV service. I also had no cell service with Verizon.

Waterfall steps away!!

I fell in love with this secluded property as soon as we drove up. When I opened the car door, I could hear the stream running. The waterfall is literally in the back yard!! Be sure to carry water shoes, so you can walk the stream. The house itself was so nice and well decorated! It had everything you could need. There's a small convenience store and cafe about 1/2 mile from the driveway. Little Missouri Falls is about a 20-ish minute drive. If I'm in the area again, I'll definitely book this wonderful property again!

The cabin wasn’t easy to find the address given put me in a RV campground. I tried calling but there is no cell service for at least three miles.The woman at the store let me use her phone that she had hooked to WiFi. I got better directions this time. When I pulled up to the cabin the leaves were deep and the yard was never raked. The Creek mentioned in the ad was completely dry. The store had hardly anything. I didn’t get in until late in the day and it’s 40 miles round trip back to Mena for supplies. I was excited to get my SXS out in the morning because as the ad said convenient access to the trails.It was almost 10 miles to the trail head with no signage. After driving the forest roads to find the trailhead. I got to Wolf pen Gap. It was closed thru March ? I figured that someone who was a permanent resident of the area would know this. I have never seen a forest closed. I got no information from Fish and Game and every local seemed clueless. The property owner said this was my fault ? I didn’t know that the forest dept is in charge of the trails not the state. The cabin only had space heaters in an old wood cabin. The water had a lot of sulfur in it. The drive to the cabin required crossing a dry spillway which had quite a dip. I wouldn’t recommend a low clearance vehicle. My take on this trip. Stay in Mena trailer to the trails instead of staying where you need WiFi to make a call and staying in a tinder box with old space heaters

About the host

Hosted by Amanda Threlkeld

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Amanda! We’re a local, family-run property and take pride in creating a clean, comfortable, and peaceful place to stay. We genuinely love this little corner of Arkansas and enjoy sharing it with guests who want to relax, explore, and make great memories. We’re always just a message away if you need anything during your stay.

Why they chose this property

I’ve lived here my whole life, and in many ways, this place chose us. My father built this cabin years ago when the land was still a working farm. Over time it grew into what is now our campground, but the heart of it has always remained the same — peaceful woods, a strong flowing creek, and room to breathe.

What makes this property unique

Hear the waterfall before you even unload the car. This family-built cabin sits along a year-round rushing creek, offering wooded privacy, glowing string-lit firepit nights, and convenient ATV trail access — all just off the highway. It’s authentic Arkansas charm with comfort and adventure in one place.
