Things to know:
The cabin is located in the woods, 1.9 miles down a gravel/dirt road. The cabin is surrounded by forest, so there will be bugs. The nearest town is Harrison, a 30-minute drive from the cabin. There is a convenience store located 2 miles from the cabin. There is another cabin located on the property. Please review the photos showing the location of each cabin.
No pets are allowed in the cabin; service animals are always welcome.
If you plan to float the Buffalo National River during your stay, we recommend checking the river levels in advance. The cabin is located in the Upper Buffalo River region, where water levels can drop during the summer months.
While some waterfalls may not be flowing without consistent rainfall, the bluffs and massive boulders around them are still incredible places to hike, explore, and take in the stunning scenery.

The owner makes sure your stay is perfect and it was.
A great deck for visiting and a nice sit around fire pit in the evening.
Loved the entire stay being close to great hiking trails.
We absolutely loved this cabin! It was stocked with many extras and one of the cleanest I I’ve ever stayed at. We enjoyed the hiking and the outdoor sitting area. We will definitely be back again!
Very nice cabin, the wrap around porch made for a great view of the area. It’s pretty special to hike out the front door and be able to explore the area for hours.
Our family had an incredible time here over the long memorial day weekend! We hiked the nearby trails, floated the Buffalo river and did a zip line canopy tour all within a 30 minute or less drive from the cabin! Would love to return and stay here again soon. Highly recommend!
I enjoyed my stay very much. Everything was as advertised - clean, comfortable bed, well stocked with lots of extras like yummy snacks, loved sitting on the covered deck and watching the squirrels and birds play on the feeders, great WiFi connection, close to my favorite places on the Buffalo River, host answered my texts quickly. I totally recommend this location for 1 person or 8.
The cabin was an absolute dream!!! The hosts really thought of all the details from stocking the kitchen, mapping out hiking trails, to having access to fire wood. We enjoyed the short hike to Antenna Pine Overlook and sitting by the fire the most. Will definitely be back!

This is a beautiful cabin stocked with everything we didn't know we needed! We loved hiking the area around the property... Antenna Pine Overlook was an easy and stunning hike that we loved more than the popular Whitaker Point. We had a lovely family weekend here!
Tiffany was excellent to work with! Property very clean. Appreciated the well-stocked cupboards, high chair, games, firewood, and loved the hike out to the overlook-definitely worth a visit!
The cabin was fabulous! It had all the essentials and amenities that we could have ever needed. This truly felt like a home away from home. Several fun hikes were in close proximity to the property. Can’t wait to come back!
Thank you, Tiffany, for creating an exceptional vacation home.

Property is in great condition, well stocked and comfortable. Very good wifi and at the cabin, i had good T-Mobile reception. The property is out in the country, fairly isolated so its really quiet. The hiking in the surrounding area is very good and there's a nice hike that starts just feet from the cabin.
Bottom line, we were there for 5 nights and really enjoyed our stay.
If you are looking gettaway and bond with nature... this is the place! Cabin is super clean and well kept and has everything you need. The hike from the cabin has one of the most amazing views and there are dozens of hiking trails within 20 minutes. Hosts are amazing and very prompt to respond. Would highly highly recommend staying here if you are heading to northern Arkansas/the ozark area!
We loved the cozy cabin and kept commenting to one another about how well stocked it was! They really thought of everything. We were blown away by the hike attached to the property; it would be a shame to miss it. Proximity to the Buffalo and all the other major hikes we wanted to hit were 15min or under. Unbeatable!
3 ladies stayed the weekend, we had others who weren't able to make it and boy did they miss out ☹️ It was so nice to have a clean cabin with comfortable beds to sleep well in super quiet woods. The hike from the cabin to Antenna Pines was stunning. The host has the place so well stocked with everything you could possibly need. We hiked to 13 different waterfalls in the Buffalo River area! Awesome weekend in a wonderful cabin.
The property was extremely clean. There were extra amenities like laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, toothbrushes and a snack bucket that go above and beyond a normal vacation cabin. The property is very quiet, peaceful, and in a perfect location. Our family really enjoyed the out door space, fire pit, hammock, and games. We rented this for a get away to relax and reconnect before heading back to school. The cabin was exactly what we needed! We will absolutely be back!
We loved staying here! It’s perfect for hiking. We enjoyed the hike from the cabin to Antenna Pine overlook. My kids loved the pond and the swing by it. We liked being able to explore around the cabin when we came in from hiking. There was plenty of room and the cabin had anything we could need. Our first night the power went out for a few hours in the whole area and the owner was great about checking on the power outage and keeping us updated. And there were already flashlights and stuff there. We hope to come back soon.
So clean, cute and well-equipped. Can't say how great this stay was. Comfy beds, tons to do. There's a fantastic trail right by the cabin. We enjoyed steaks on the grill, campfire in the fire pit, and dinner on the porch. We can't wait to come back!
We loved everything about this cabin! It was in a great location and had all the necessities of home. The wraparound porch overlooking the pond with access to a hiking trail was a plus. The host made sure we had everything we needed upon arrival and was quick to respond to messages. Will definitely stay here again!
