A secluded cabin on the Buffalo Nation River with beautiful views and wildlife.

Dewey's Cabin is a two bedroom one bath, very secluded cabin with gorgeous views of Point Peter Mountain and located only two miles from the Buffalo River.

Please be aware: Renters will need to bring their own bedding and towels. This is how we keep our prices low and affordable for our customers. Also, the cabin is secluded with beautiful mountain views, however, there is 5 miles of dirt road to reach the cabin. We recommend bringing atruck or SUV.

Manes Bluff Cabins are perfect for horseback riders, hikers, or anyone looking for a scenic stay away from town. Located on the Buffalo Nation River, cabin is 4.6 miles from Snowball and located about 300 yards from Dave Manes Bluff lookout on the Buffalo River Trail in the Ozark Mountains. It is about 3 miles from the Buffalo National River by county road to the local favorite swimming hole the Margaret White A favorite and beautiful nearby river spot is the Margaret White. Whether you love hunting, fishing, or observing wildlife, this place has it all. 33 acres surrounded by park land.

This place is also wonderful for anyone interested in history as the late owner Dewey Dill spent time making moonshine in the school bus cleverly hidden (buried) behind the cabin.

Point Peter Mountain is visible off the front porch of Dewey s Cabin and the driveway to the cabin is marked by a beautiful old barn built in 1938.

We had a great time at this cabin and the swimming hole was to die for! Hands down best vacation we have had so far! We had a great week of unplugging and getting away from everyone and everything with just our kiddos.

Secluded and peaceful

Thus quite, peaceful, secluded cabin is just what we needed to recharge our batteries. We spent the day enjoying the beautiful weather and view. We even saw an elk come to the back of the cabin to graze. We will definitely be back to stay again, we will just stay longer next time.

Wonderful Spot

We loved every minute of our trip to Dewey’s Cabin. The property is beautiful with a great view, amazing sunrises and sunsets, and the cabin is only a short hike to the Ozark Highland Trail and Buffalo National River. We will be back!

Relaxing

This location is so beautiful and relaxing. There was a fire pit and firewood ready for us. As the listing says, you definitely need AWD or 4WD to get to the cabin, but it's worth it! We will likely be back for more hiking in the fall!

Not as advertised- better.

The stay is so remote and the swim hole nearby is beautiful. With the cabin at the top of the hill my small daughter could explore just a little bit with our eyes always being on her. Cabin was beautiful and nicely kept. The stove was great, the water was warm. What more could you ask for?

Relaxing stay

We loved our weekend getaway! Remote location, we enjoyed exploring some nearby trails, looking for wildlife tracks, and wading at the swimming hole. The driving directions were very helpful and while SUV would likely be beneficial on some of the roads, our Subaru Outback did just fine. Accommodations were as described and beds were comfortable. I really enjoyed drinking my coffee while watching the sunrise and my toddler play in the living room.

Isolated get-away

If you want to "get away from ALL" this is for you but road is not for the faint at heart or low cars....owner does send directions to AVOID GPS and follow the owner's directions! The swimming hole "made" this trip for us with children but not an easy access. If you need cell signal or wifi again NOT the place for you....this is for a GET-AWAY! We loved it!
