It was a fantastic place to stay! The Magnolia Rm was just so comfortable and cozy. Loved the adjoining retro bathroom as well. One small recommendation is to have tissues in the room or bath. Only tissues I could find were in the gameroom. Thank you for providing such a lovely place to stay.

Absolutely fantastic stay! The cabin was clean, comfortable and well-stocked for my stay. It was well-placed for quick trips to devil's den State Park, Fayetteville, and Bentonville. The price was very low for the quality of the stay. About the only down side was the driveway leading into the property. it's a little hard to see, so be ready when your navigation tells you to get ready to turn;)! Great communication with the host as well! One of the best values I have had in any overnight stay, and I have done a lot of traveling.
