Thanksgiving break

We had the best time staying at this cabin while visiting family in town for the Thanksgiving holiday. It was exactly like what we were expecting and the host made everything an easy process and was so nice to work with. Looking forward to staying here again!

Great little cabin

We were in the area for a family reunion and this was a perfect little house for my family to stay. The house was one of the cleanest houses I've stayed at. Laurie was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. If we're ever back in the area we would definitely stay here again!

Great stay!

We were in town to visit family over the Easter weekend. The house we usually stay in was booked, so we came across this property. Everything was great, short walk in to town and we loved sitting outside on the deck! We hosted the family for Easter brunch and a little egg hunt and the house was perfect. I was able to find everything we needed in the kitchen to cook brunch for the family and our grandson had a great time hunting for eggs! This will be our new go to place to stay when we are in town!

Tucked Away

This property is fabulous! Even though there are houses on both sides, it feels tucked away and private. The atmosphere is quiet and laid back. The amenities include a fire pit, which was a sweet surprise. The house was clean and decorated so invitingly and the huge wrap around windows were great but also draped to give privacy at night. The wrap around porch was such a nice place to relax and enjoy the morning. Lastly, the bathroom is huge. Our overall stay way extremely enjoyable.

Eclipse Weekend stay

What a wonderful eclipse weekend we had at this property. The property was clean, well decorated and had everything we needed for our weekend stay. The hostess was awesome and more than kind during our stay. We were walking distance from Main Street, food, and shopping. We had a property booked that was cancelled on us last minute and this property was rented but became available last minute due to a renter cancelling on this property. With the solar eclipse in Arkansas this property could have been rented for way more, but the hostess said the price is the price, I’m not taking advantage of others due to the cancellation. Morals, integrity & character is what came to mind. We are already looking to rebook in the fall.

Nice and clean cabin.

Enjoyed our stay. Cabin was clean and nice. It is close to everything. If it had a view it would be perfect but for the price you can't beat it.

Birthday getaway

My husband and I had a weekend getaway in Calico Rock, Arkansas for the hubby’s birthday. We were pleasantly surprised with the cabin. It is so cute, clean and smelled so good! The porch is so relaxing! My husband especially loved grilling and building a fire every night. The location is close to all the places we wanted to see. We especially enjoyed driving to Mirror Lake, hiking to White River Bluff Loop, shopping in Mountain View, sightseeing the surrounding areas and eating at Whispering Woods Restaurant. Laurie was super helpful and so nice! This trip did not disappoint!

Absolutely Perfect

The cabin is beautiful, extremly clean and comfortable. We felt at home the whole weekend! The kitchen is fully stocked🍽🍳🧂! Bring your groceries and you're all set (Harp's is nearby...the liquor store is a little further 😉). The cabin offered a comfortable bed, fresh linens and towels, cozy sofa, bbq grills and beautiful home decor... couldn't ask for more! Laurie was very easy to communicate with and a wonderful host 😊. We had the local pizza and ate at the Printing Press cafe.. everything was delicious. We explored the Museum, the ghost town and walked through the park. The town is quant and the people are welcoming. We highly recommend Mirror Lake Waterfall, about an easy 30 min drive and well worth it! Thank you Laurie for sharing your cabin🏚. We are excited to return ☺.

Comfortable, clean, and convenient

The house was comfortable for our family, as well as very clean. We appreciated the abundance of towels and the extra set of sheets. It was nice being close to the main street and river area, as well as in between all the places we wanted to visit while in the area. The property owner was responsive and friendly. We would stay here again.

Get away with friends

The 4 of us enjoyed the spaciousness of this cabin, everyone had room to spread out and relax, the porch was a favorite. We had beautiful campfires every night and really appreciated that there was a stack of wood to use! The kitchen had everything we needed to "dine in". The host was pleasantly communicative; checked in on us via text several times.
