I had a fantastic time staying at this place. The home itself was clean, well-appointed, and matched the photos perfectly. Tina was a wonderful host. Communication was quick and seamless from the moment I booked until check-out. They provided clear instructions and were very helpful throughout my stay. I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone visiting the area and would love to stay here again.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The cabin was very well equipped and we had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable! I slept like a baby. I loved the secluded feel of the area and we enjoyed the peace that can only come from nature. I'll book again and can't wait to return!

Cabin Retreat w/ pets
We enjoyed our stay very much! This cabin is one of a 3 property rental. We traveled with pets and the back yard is securely fenced and does connect separate but shared fence with next house. If you don’t want to share, then this is a share property. It’s nestled in a wonderful wooded area that overlooks woods and down below you see the lake peaking through. The dock has two ways to get to it depending on mobility but is a little steep to the dock. We had no issues at all! About 24 minutes from bath row and nestled on a hill. The cabin is easy to access, stocked very well and clean. It is a cabin so the bathroom is smaller but remodeled fully. We packed lightly, made a great few day getaway snd wanted for nothing. We would absolutely stay again!

Great little getaway
Wife and daughter took a trip to go to Crater of diamonds and other attractions in the general area. This was kinda in the middle and not a bad drive to the crater at just over an hour. Being in close proximity to Hot Springs, AR was nice. Cabin was nice with comfy beds and great to relax in. The dock was nice to be out by the water and lovely view. Bathroom is a little small but worked. Would recommend as a place to stay.
This cabin was perfect for our family of 4 and 2 dogs! The cabin was very well stocked with all the essentials and crazy amount of towels and rags!!! The fire pit had an amazing view overhead, the picnic table had an amazing view of the lake, and the hike down to the boat dock was always a blast with the dogs! The furniture and cabinets were stunning, the shower was amazing and always hot, the beds and blankets were all cozy! The owners were very friendly and willing to help us with anything we needed, which everything was already taken care of by them. Overall we will be back and absolutely enjoyed our stay here!
Beautiful views, private location, and close to the water
We loved our cabin stay and the property. The kids were super excited about staying in the woods and close proximity to waffles (them) and coffee (us). The water levels were high due to flooding and we found a safe place to stay with all the comforts of home.
Was a very nice place to stay at,you can get what you need like 14 minutes away,i would stay there again,only shortfall one bathroom that was small. Rest was great!

My family of four wanted a quick weekend getaway, and this spot was great. The cabin was the best stocked rental I’ve ever visited. The bathroom is quite small, but since we were out and about a lot it didn’t bother us. Would stay here again.
