About this property

Starlight Cabin in the Ozark Mountains near the Buffalo National River

Come slip away to a serene setting on seven private acres in the picturesque Ozarks. Our rustic cedar cabin with pine interior is the perfect respite from the stress of everyday living. Starlight Cabin offers a full kitchen (apartment size stove, refrigerator, and microwave) and pantry stocked with essentials such as coffee and coffee filters, sugar, flour, salt & pepper, vegetable and coconut oils for cooking, mustard, ketchup, bottled water, napkins, paper towels, and foil. Dishes and pots and pans are provided. There is a wonderful large deck with a charcoal grill and outdoor dining furniture. After exploring the area, come back to the cabin and prepare dinner on the grill and enjoy dining under the stars. Take in the incredible clear night sky. View the Milky Way while relaxing on the deck. A queen size memory foam bed awaits you in the loft and the soft glow of a Himalayan salt lamp sets the stage for respite and rejuvenation. A queen size sleeper sofa in the living area offers a restful night's sleep. Luxurious high thread count sheets are furnished for your comfort. The bathroom has a pedestal sink and large circular shower with soft and absorbent Turkish towels. A hair dryer is provided. Small batch, organic handmade soap made on the farm is supplied. The living area has a small TV and DVD player. The TV will pick up local public broadcasting channels. A writing desk situated in a little nook provides views of the pasture and woods.

Please note that cell service can be spotty at the cabin. AT&T and Verizon have strong signals. I have received mixed reviews for T-Mobile - some guests do have limited access, others have none. As far as Sprint and US Cellular, I've been told that there is no access. I would assume that all other carriers have limited or no service at the cabin.

Delightful stay!

Would welcome an opportunity to stay at Starlight Cabin again. The cabin was delightful, well- equipped, quiet at night and greeted by a rooster in the morning, special welcoming and personal touches made us feel right at home. Laura communicated quickly and warmly. Lovely spot.

Cozy beautiful cabin

Wonderful host! This is a quaint & rustic cabin stocked with everything we needed. We slept so comfortable in the loft and our boys had so much fun there. My favorite t time was morning coffee and watching the sunrise from the deck.

Stay of a lifetime

We really loved our stay in the Starlight Cabin. The cabin was clean and cozy with an incredible view of rolling Ozark hills. The extensive deck with multiple amenities made a perfect platform for all kinds of family fun. For a comfy stay near the Buffalo Rec Area on the Buffallo River the Starlight Cabin cannot be beat!

Peaceful and Practical

Peace and quiet is the attraction here. The cabin is nicely laid out and decorated. A great place to view the stars. The river is close by but expect a little drive to get to things like groceries or eating places. The nearby towns have a lot of unique shops. Overall this has been one of my favorite stays and I’d definitely stay there again.

Super clean!

I’ve stayed in plenty of privately owned rentals and a variety of hotels and this one was the cleanest I’ve stayed in! It is in a quiet place but not too far off the beaten path. It was the perfect weekend getaway before school started back. I definitely look forward to coming back!

Fantastic Memorial Day weekend!

My family of three stayed in Starlight Cabin for Memorial Day weekend 2016 and had a fantastic time! The cabin is immaculately clean, well-stocked and cozy enough for two parents and a teenager (or two parents and two children) -- exactly as it appeared in the photos. We enjoyed coffee on the deck in the mornings, canoeing and kayaking on the Buffalo River, hiking nearby and a drive-in movie in Marshall. Laura and Miles were incredibly thoughtful hosts -- we can't say enough good things about our stay! We hope to return one day!

Awesome

Had a wonderful weekend in this magical cabin. There are so many special little touches to make your stay comfortable and special. Beautiful area for hiking and enjoying nature. Enjoyed the evenings eating on deck and watching the fireflies. And at night there were a million stars in the sky with the Milky Way shining bright. Laura the host was great and would highly recommend this special cabin under the stars. Monica

We came to the area because it's known to be free of light pollution and good for star gazing. We assumed we would have to go to a nearby Buffalo River campground to see that. Instead, we were delighted to find there were acres of clearing in front of the cabin's deck which meant we didn't have to go anywhere to spend three nights of enjoying God's creation in the skies.

Amazing!

They didn’t miss a detail from the personalized welcome signs, snacks, and wine to the sweetest card wishing us a Happy Anniversary & me a Happy Birthday! The cabin was well stocked with everything you need to stay away with the exception of needing to bring your food and clothes. We loved that they placed homemade soaps and farm fresh eggs for us, too. Cleanest cabin we’ve ever stayed in! Thank you for having us!

Perfect Cabin for Vacation

My small family had the best time. Mrs. Laura provided so much detailed information, and it was super helpful! They were attentive to anything that we needed and answered any questions. We saw amazing wildlife from the porch of the cabin. The pictures of the cabin does not do it justice. It’s absolutely beautiful! My family and I will be back! Thank you, Mrs. Laura and Mr. Miles, for everything!

Rita E.,

All we wanted it to be and more

In this day-and-age where words seem little more than slogans and sales pitches, it's not often that you get exactly what's promised. Starlight delivered. Laura and Miles stayed in just enough touch to let us know they were available if needed. The cabin was clean and well organized, for a small place, amazingly uncluttered. Accessibility to the Buffalo River and the outdoors was, as advertised, just around the corner. We've been home from our trip for a few days now and I've referred the cabin to a half-dozen folks already - and will continue to make referrals til we can make it back. And, oh, when you're there, lay on the deck in the middle of the night and look at the sky - Starlight's not just a catchy name. See you again.

Great cabin

We really enjoyed our stay in this cabin. It had everything we needed and more, plus lots of nice extra touches. Comminication with Laura was great. The cabin was very clean and the location is great for hiking around and floating the Buffalo river. We also really enjoyed having breakfast on the porch.

About the host

Hosted by Laura McCarty

Host profile image
Miles and Laura McCarty have been in love with the Arkansas Ozarks since they were teenagers. Growing up in southeast Arkansas, they savored every opportunity to run away and float the Buffalo River, camp, and explore the wondrous caves. Although they had moved away from Arkansas and wandered near and far over the years, they still missed the Natural State. In 2008, on a lark, they hit the road with their daughter, Sarah, over Labor Day Weekend to view a few properties that whimsical searches on the internet revealed. They were enchanted by the raw beauty of what they now call Three Hollows Farm. They were able to purchase an additional 7 acres and finished out Starlight Cabin. It took seven years before they were able to move from Austin, Texas to their slice of heaven. The journey has just begun.
