Close to everything!

Enjoy the view from the amazing deck of this quaint cabin high on the bluff overlooking the White River. The Ward cabin features two bedrooms and two baths with hardwood flooring throughout. The master retreat with private access to the large deck, features a jetted tub and a separate shower in the private ensuite bath. The views of the river bend and mountains from the deck and living room are breathtaking. Get up early and watch the eagles soar up and down the river while you drink your coffee. You can’t beat this cabin for a relaxing getaway to the White River region of the Ozark Mountains.

The large driveway allows for plenty of room for your boat. Local public boat access is in town about 4 blocks away.

From the cabin, walk to Main street and take in some shopping, a bite to eat, or stroll through the historic original part of town with historical markers. Enhance your walk by making your way to Rand City Park for some disc golf, easy trails, or by enjoying the shaded scenery and sounds of the creek flowing through the park!

Perfect Getaway Place
My husband and I wanted to celebrate our Anniversary somewhere near Mountain View. We decided on this location and I’m so thankful that we did! Its location on the bluff literally gives you the “million dollar view” I cannot express how clean and beautifully decorated this little cabin was. We will definitely be back!!!!

Perfect family getaway
This cabin is absolutely perfect. Our family loved every minute. The cabin was very clean and we had everything we needed for our stay. The beds were very comfy and although I was tempted to sleep in, I just could not wait to get up and go out to the deck each morning.The views from the back deck are breathtaking. The pictures just do not do it justice. One morning my husband watched 2 huge eagles soaring overhead come right down and land in the tree right next to the deck! We also enjoyed going into town and having breakfast at the Printing Press Cafe and had Jenkin’s fishing service take us out to trout fish. It was the perfect peaceful little place. Mountain View is just a short drive so we felt like we were close enough to all the restaurants and activities there as well. We hope to come back soon!

Great place for my wife and me. It is close to everything. Printing Press cafe has awesome breakfast and great coffee. The cabin was clean. Everything handy. View is fantastic. Only about 15 minutes from Norfork Brewing. Killer pizza and beer. Would highly recommend this place for a couple or small family. Will likely rent this property again soon.

Breathtaking views
My family and I spent Thanksgiving giving in beautiful Calico Rock. This cabin is cozy, comfortable and well stocked with everything you’d need and more. I was able to prepare and make a full thanksgiving meal without bringing anything additional from home. The crockpot is an added bonus and I would throw dinner in to cook while away during the day exploring. The views are unmatched here. Stunning sunsets, mountains and views of a ranch across the river. My toddler loved to sit outside and listen to the cows moo-ing. Highly recommend this property for a peaceful escape from the business of life!

You Can’t Beat the Quaintness and View
The cabin itself was adorable, clean, and comfortable. Immediately I felt relaxed and cozy. The view of the river was outstanding and the host had the best entertainment suggestions to help make our trip memorable. Calico is a sleepy little town that offered us a much needed break from our busy lives. There are the perfect amount of things to do to keep you busy in town, outdoors, and still find time to have a quiet evening on the deck of the cabin. I can’t wait to visit again!

Great Getaway
If you are looking for a fun, peaceful and beautiful trip Calico Rock is it. Calico Rock has many quaint shops and eateries to enjoy. Take a pizza back to the cabin for dining on the deck from Riverside Pizza or enjoy local 56 brew and nachos at Juniper's. Float the White River to catch a few trout with Calico Rock Docks.

Perfect cabin with a view
This property was wonderful for our short fishing trip with our grandsons. The view was spectacular overlooking the river and rolling pastures on the opposite banks. The cabin was very well appointed with thoughtful details that made us feel extra comfortable being there. The cabin was very clean, tasteful, and the hosts was very prompt with communications. Would love to go back with the kids or friends again.
