Millions of people visit Arkansas annually. The biggest draw is the Clinton Library and the many historical locations in Little Rock. The second-most visited site is only about 20 minutes away from our property at Petit Jean State Park. Enjoy swimming at Lake Sylvia and a variety of recreation opportunities at Harris Brake Lake.
Enjoy a scenic drive to experience downtime in our newer 1500 sq ft home or use as a hub for day trips. Check out popular attractions (many free) including Petit Jean Mountain and State Park, Clinton Library, Pinnacle Mountain, Mt. Nebo, Mt. Magazine (the highest point in the state), Heifer International, Harris Brake, Wooly Hollow State Park, Lake Dardanelle, Hot Springs, Little Rock, Conway, Museum of Automobiles, and more! Then relax in the jacuzzi tub or on the back porch to recharge.
Houston, Arkansas is a quiet neighborhood with Perryville and Morrilton just minutes away. A visit to Petit Jean Mountain is a must for breathtaking views and unforgettable scenery. Harris Brake Lake is a one-minute drive or 5-minute walk from the driveway. Visit the public library, local track and park, art gallery, flea markets, restaurants, and more.
Take a quiet stroll down the road toward the lakefront, drive to visit a peaceful pier to fish, hunt on the local mountains, or enjoy a hike or ride in the outdoors. Meet friends at restaurants, movie theaters, or for other activities when you feel like seeing the bigger cities around, or simply enjoy the slower pace and southern charm of the country. Free hunting areas also available.
The whole house is yours to enjoy! Two bedrooms have private entrances as well. We have high standards for our home and ask that you follow house rules and leave the home in the condition you found it. If anything does happen during your stay, please let us know immediately.

About the host

Hosted by Crystal and Jim

Host profile image
Jim is a professional bass fisherman, former firefighter, and jack-of-all-trades. I am a writer, teacher, and tutor. We enjoy traveling and fishing, so we've made our home into a great destination vacation rental to bless others with a safe and relaxing home away from home. Stay a little while or a long time.

Why they chose this property

There are so many attractions within a short drive of Mountains and Meadows, and the scenery along the way is beautiful. The slower pace of the towns surrounding make this the perfect peaceful place to relax. When you want to visit towns nearby, the scenery is amazing!

What makes this property unique

Sitting on the porch watching the birds, looking at the mountain, or taking in the meadow just brings to mind a time when things had a slower pace and people had more time for rest. We love the high ceiling with windows that let in the sunlight in the large living room and stocked kitchen area. A laundry room with washer and dryer, 3 bedrooms, and 2.5 bathrooms allow you and your guests to live in comfort while away from home. You'll find books, games, a desk and work area, and so much more to make your stay one you'll never forget.
