Quiet stay in the Ozarks

The one-room schoolhouse was a perfect base from which to explore the surrounding Ozark trails and views. Halfway between the Buffalo National Senic River and cool Eureka Springs.

Cozy and peaceful getaway

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at this unique historic schoolhouse. The owner provided everything we could possibly require and the property was exactly as described in the listing. The schoolhouse was central to all of the activities that we wanted to do and a peaceful place for some rest and relaxation. We enjoyed having dinner and watching the fireflies from the spacious front porch and taking evening walks along the tree lined country roads. Mr. Keith was a gracious host and we felt so welcome. Highly recommend!

Weekend getaway

Property with lots of history and in the middle of absolute nowhere! It seemed like we could see every star in the sky. Great getaway with Buffalo River trails and elk sightings nearby. Local eatery in Kingston was great. Great to get away from Tv and social media for a few days.

Amazing getaway

It was an amazing get away to unwind and unplug. The school house is exactly how it's advertised, clean, cozy and quaint. Keith was friendly and a great host. We hope to return in the future. Huntsville is a charming small town and worth checking out. Lots of hiking close by.
