The Grotto - Family-sized retreat on 10 acres of pristine forest. Pet friendly!

ESCAPE TO THE GROTTO
Your four-bedroom retreat awaits on 10 acres of pristine forest in the Ouachita mountains. Completely renovated, enjoy the finest comforts and the most thoughtful touches, all in a breathtaking setting that will recharge your soul. (Pets welcomed too!)

Tucked at the end of a winding country road, you will be just minutes from quaint Mt. Ida, Lake Ouachita, bike trails, crystal mines, and more. Watch the deer as you sip your morning coffee on the front porch and enjoy the sunrise. Hike up the wooded hillside along trickling streams. Stargaze without a trace of light pollution on the multi-level back deck.
