Rustic charm meets modern comfort at Arsulas House

Timeless Country Charm embracing Today’s Comforts- Experience Arsula’s House
Welcome to Arsula's House, situated atop Goe Hill. Nestled in a picturesque location, our property offers a cozy and inviting atmosphere, featuring a beautiful blend of rustic and modern décor, for an unforgettable stay. Enjoy modern amenities and a convenient location that brings you close to all of nature’s wonders. This property treats you to stunning landscapes and tranquility, allowing you to explore nearby attractions and indulge in local cuisine, creating memories that will last a lifetime at Arsula's House.
Built nearly 50 years ago by my grandfather, Johnny B., for my grandmother, Arsula, whom he lovingly called Dot. We have updated much of the home while striving to maintain the ambiance that Johnny B. originally intended. The house sits atop Goe Hill, offering a breathtaking view overlooking Stone Fort Valley. From here, you can see the Stone Fort Bluffs, Tom Dick Hill, and the beginning of the Shawnee National Forest to the southeast.
Nearby attractions include Burden Falls, Bell Smith Springs, John Mack Hollow, Buzzards Roost, McCormick Lookout Tower, Trigg Tower, Jack’s Trail Ride, Camp Ondessonk, and Cedar Falls—all just minutes away. The Garden of the Gods and Cave in Rock are also easily accessible.
Guests have access to the entire property, except for areas that are locked and designated for storage. Stonefort is a quiet, sleepy little town with a population of 250 and excellent access to the Shawnee National Forest. The Tunnel Hill State Trail runs straight through the middle of town.
