"My family traveled over 1,600 miles to watch the 2024 eclipse as well as to stay at this beautiful VRBO. The cabins are adorable, comfortable, and well thought out. The property is simply beautiful with the woods and pond plus it's far enough out of town that the stars were stunning. The wife and kids are already asking if we can come back again! Our sleeping arrangements included my wife and I in one cabin/pod with four children in the other cabin/pod with the two boys in a tent. On the second...

"The GPS is a little off, the driveway to get to the spot is right before the junction of highways 21 and 16. A beautiful spot with magnificent views. I appreciate the coffee pot and the bundle of firewood and the King size bed is comfy. Emily and Kayla made the stay easy. I will be back, when its a bit warmer."

"Eric and Ashlee are great hosts. They answered all our questions before we arrived, made us us feel super welcome and couldn't have been more helpful. The location of the cabin is beautiful, set in rolling countryside with stunning views, close to Ponca, and there are some great family walks nearby. Lost Valley is great for young children. I would highly recommend staying here if you are visiting the Buffalo River area. Thank you. Martin"

"There were wood roaches in the home and we slept in our vehicle both nights. The owner did spray the interior for bugs a few hours after I notified them, but we continued to see live roaches in the house and chose to sleep in our vehicle instead. Other than the roaches, the view from the front porch was amazing!"

Hotel Seville

Hotel Seville

5/5 Excellent
"Was here for a quick, one-day stay, and was lucky to get a room at Harrison's Historic Hotel Seville - a beautiful hotel with a long, elegant history. Weddings, receptions, family reunions, and other events over a period of at least 70 years (predating my birth by years) are among the great stories related to The Seville, in addition to my direct memories make it a really special place for me. The price was very reasonable, and our double queen room was laid out as a suite, and each side had its own shower/bath and modern TV. The interior is multi-floor plaza-like area with an elegant design and a unique style decor that one rarely encounters. The people were super friendly and even allowed me to make some copies in the very early morning, facilitating an early departure to the Buffalo River area. We arrived too late for events at the Lyric Theatre, another treasure just a block away, but we did walk around the square in Harrison and picked up a couple of essentials. If you have an historical connection to Harrison, as I do, this could be a surprise you'll enjoy."
