Fantastic stay. The host was very responsive and the location was great. The kids had a blast playing in the river throughout the day and the week day late afternoon/ evening water release from the dam upstream was exciting and keep the river extra clear and cool. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Our group of 4 adults and 4 kids had a wonderful time. The house was clean and well stocked for our four night stay. It was a beautiful location and the river was perfect. We especially loved the kayaks and the kids didn’t want to go do anything but play in the water the whole time. We would love to stay again in the future!

River Retreat was the perfect house for our Arkansas getaway. The house was exceptionally clean and the kitchen well stocked. And the deck - it was exactly the place we needed to drink our coffee in the morning and relax at night. We actually saw an otter 2 nights of our stay! Colleen was spot on with her suggestions for restaurants in town. Terri's really does have delicious turnip greens :) Scott and Colleen made everything easy - from check in to check out. Thanks for sharing your house with us!

This was an amazing experience! We hosted our ladies small church group there and there was plenty of room, clean, amazing views and this cabin was perfect. There is so much to do-from kayaking the river right in front of the cabin to thrifting in the local town! The porches are amazing for soaking up the sun and enjoying the sound of the river! I highly recommend this place and will be renting it again in the future! The HOST ARE AMAZING, and communicate well!

Great location. Extremely clean. Everything you need for your stay is already there except food and drinks of course. Took the whole family. Everyone had a wonderful time. The owner even came and brought us more firewood for the fire pit. I would highly recommend staying here. Definitely coming back.

The cabin was a great getaway. We were often greeted by families of deer on the driveway. The sounds of crickets and bullfrogs quickly announced the evenings. We had fun exploring shops downtown and meeting friendly local staff. The cabin was fully stocked, knives were sharp and even had a blender to make cookies. The cabin was very clean and easy to navigate using kayaks and canoes with the owner’s clear instructions. We enjoyed playing bean baga on the deck and fishing too. We searched for diamonds at Diamond Crater State Park with no luck but had fun! Get a cleaning station in the sun as the washing water is chilly. We made the drive to Lake Gleeson Dam and up to the marina area. We had a memorable time skipping rocks on the lake. The cabin owner was very responsive, friendly and even gave us recommendations for dining and grocery shopping. Had a great trip!

Wonderful stay. The whole family enjoyed fishing, and kayaking. I appreciate the life vests available which fit everyone a 4, 8 and 11 year old. Beds were comfortable and blankets and covers were nice. Kitchen was very well stocked. We forgot our s’mores sticks but they had some available and a lighter. Over all it was a wonderful stay.The little path to the deck was a little stiff but they even had some walking sticks that helped.

Man we had such a great time at this place! It was so nice to be away from all the busyness of life and enjoy the peaceful cabin on the river. Getting there was easy, the directions got us right where we needed to be. The host was easy to reach and quick to respond to any questions we had. There was a lockbox for checkin that made getting in and out simple.The cabin itself was spotless. Everything was squeaky clean and well taken care of. The kitchen was a dream with everything we needed, plus both drip coffee and Keurig options. The bathrooms and showers were great and stocked with all the basics.Our kids made the most of everything. They played all the games, read books, and ran wild outside. They especially loved the kayaks and exploring the river. We spent most of our time on the back porch and down on the deck by the river. We loved the fire pit in the evenings.Town was less than 10 minutes away if we needed anything, the dollar stores had most of what we forgot. Walmart was about 30 minutes out, but we hit that on the way in. We took a day trip to the Albert Pike recreation area to hike Winding Stairs. That was beautiful and definitely helped drain the kids energy!This was such a peaceful, fun getaway for our family. Beautiful scenery everywhere you look. We will definitely look to stay here again!
