"This cabin was cozy and fun! The kids enjoyed being able to look for rocks and splash around in the riverbed. The deck made a great place to eat and relax after busy days exploring the area. The host was prompt in his responses to our questions. We would recommend this place to any big family traveling in the area!"

"Great place to relax. Host was very nice and communication was great. Great location if you want to hike the Ouachita Forest, visit the Wegner Crystal Mine or just get away from the cities. You’re also only about 1 hour away from Hot Springs where there is the Garvan Woodland Gardens, mini golf/family activities and the Coleman Crystal Mine."

"This is definitely a cozy cabin in the woods. Very private and relaxing on the porch. We enjoyed the comfortable bed and sofa. The egg shaped porch swings are cool! It's just a short trip to Lake Hamilton or Lake Ouachita and it's an easy drive to Hot Springs for a day trip. The host is easily accessible and responsive. We are glad we stayed there. "

"We stayed here over Easter with two families and couldn't have been more pleased.Come light — the kitchen is exceptionally well-stocked with appliances, cookware, and seasonings. We overpacked as usual and barely needed any of it. A Dollar General just 3 minutes away covers anything you might still be missing.The bedrooms are comfortable and spacious, and there is genuinely room for a crowd. The beds earned high marks from my wife.Amenities are a real highlight: a well-maintained swimming pool, a hot tub, a beautiful pond stocked for fishing, and a stream running alongside the property that's perfect for a family hike (watch for snakes in warmer months). Inside, you'll find board games, Roku TV, and solid Wi-Fi if you need to sneak in some remote work.The setting itself is the star. We spent our mornings on the front porch with coffee, watching cattle graze across open fields. The night sky is stunning — big and bright, even for us Texans.The home is close to Mt. Ida and makes for an easy day trip to Hot Springs or Mena. It is well-maintained, loaded with amenities, and a genuinely relaxing retreat for families.Highly recommended — we would absolutely stay again."

"The host was amazing—very responsive, kind, and made sure our stay went smoothly from beginning to end. The location was also ideal, giving us the perfect balance of peace and access to nearby activities."

"I stayed for two nights and it suited my needs perfectly. Some drivers may have a little difficulty starting up the gravel driveway, but it wasn’t an issue for me. The deck and seclusion were my favorite things about the property. "

"Very nice and cozy, located in a nice and quiet neighborhood. We will definitely be back."

"Great stay at the Glass House Retreat. My wife and I went to celebrate our 2nd anniversary, and it was beyond expectations. The house being situated on the river and you can actually fish and catch nice fish from the deck. We came on a Friday and as they state, follow the directions THEY give you not Google bc it will take you to a dead end. The property is immaculate and beautifully laid out. They have 2 big dogs, but they are very friendly, like to be pet, lol. I had my 3month old yorkie w us and their dog even friendly to her. The house has no internet but a DVD player and direct tv w a few channels, no premium movie channels mind you. If you go it's a good idea to bring a few DVDs with you, they have some but are a few years older, you can also bring your phone as a hotspot and watch movies on your laptop. Other than that, they have EVERYTHING you can think of. They thought of everything, towels, toys, treats, doggie, cat bed for your pet, the homemade variety cookies from scratch that you get on the counter were gone before we finished unpacking, they were that good. You can open the doors and windows and hear the small river rapids behind the house it's so relaxing, even after a heavy rain the river still flows at a nice pace to enjoy it, fishing, or just taking it in. Plus, nearby Wilhemena State Park has the 2nd highest mountain in Arkansas, and has a natural spring that you can get in. All in all, one of my top 3 VRBO trips, will definitely be back soon, GREAT hosts!"

"This is a great cabin, we can’t wait to come back!"
