Everything about our stay was 5-stars. The house was beautiful and well equipped. Our kids loved the hot tub and we all enjoyed relaxing on the multiple patios. The s’mores around the fire pit was a hit with everyone. Great location close to restaurants, shopping, and activities in Hochatown and just a 30 second drive on our SxS’s to get to the trails of the Ouachita National Forrest. Already looking forward to going back. Great hosts and wonderful cabin.

Me and my friends do a yearly retreat at a cabin. This year was by far the best! This cabin had the best amenities and so much thought was put into the decor and set up! We really enjoyed the outdoor space the most! It was a wonderful stay!

Our stay at Under the Sky was spectacular! The property was exactly as pictured and the outdoor space had a lot of room, great furniture and surrounded by woods. We spent 90% of our time at the house on the patio. It was perfect! We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend the property for its location and getting away from the crowds!!! Loved it!

Bring some food and never need to leave the cabin. The cabin was so much fun cornhole, shuffle board, Hottub, jenga, giant connect four. So much fun. Hey but the lakes close and stores even closer. I would tell anyone to stay here with your fam. P.S the swings and the fire pit are the best.

William Thank You for the kind words. We are really glad yall enjoyed your stay at Under The Southern Sky. Please look in your inbox for a discount code for a future stay.
Our family stayed at this beautiful cabin over the Christmas holiday. We were greeted with a beautiful Christmas tree (was not expecting) and holiday lights! 🎄The home had everything we needed and was decorated beautifully! Before our arrival we received a digital home manual that provided instructions for everything in the home, local activities, restaurants, etc. I referred to it several times during our stay!
We had two couples that stayed in the master suites downstairs. Grandma slept upstairs in the king suite and the younger ones slept in the bunk room. Every room had its own beautiful bathroom and there’s even a half bath downstairs. So much room to spread out and have your privacy when you need it.
We cooked all meals at the house and had no issues. Everything you need is there…just bring the food and drinks. We even grilled fajitas on the outside gas grill. The patio is fabulous! ❤️
There are televisions in every room, including the upstairs game room. Our 8 year old brought his Xbox and had no trouble getting comfortable right away.
It was cold during our visit and the hot tub was a hit! We had a fire two days in a row in the fire pit, made s’mores and sat under the lovely, tall pines. They really were magical!
Steve was a fabulous host! He stayed in touch during our visit and answered all of our questions right away. We love this home! Can’t wait to come back in the summer. We want to bring our ATVs and enjoy the outdoors!
Cheers from Texas!

About the host
Your host
Welcome to Under the Southern Sky!! We’re Steve, Megan, and Elise. Nine years ago, we fell in love with the peace and natural beauty of the Ouachita National Forest and Beavers Bend State Park. From that moment, it became our dream to one day have a cabin here—a place to slow down, make memories, and build family traditions with our daughter.
On our very first weekend in Hochatown, we even adopted our calico cat, Okie, from the local petting zoo and brought her home with us to DFW. That trip was just the beginning of our love for this area.
Now, that dream cabin has become a reality, and we’re so excited to share Under The Southern Sky with you. We hope it becomes a special part of your story, just like it has for ours.
Why they chose this property
Our guests love the convenience of unloading their ATVs and hitting the National Forest trails directly from the cabin—no need to haul them elsewhere! Under The Southern Sky is tucked away in a quieter, more secluded part of Hochatown, yet still just minutes from all the best local attractions. The spider swings are a hit with all ages, and there’s always plenty of wildlife to spot around the property.
What makes this property unique
We privately manage this cabin and pride ourselves on being available to our guests. You will have both our cell phone numbers and are able to text with any questions. We also provide a detailed Online Guidebook prior to your stay with all the details you'll need to know on the home as well as a local area resource guide on things to do. We hope that whether you're coming up for a romantic getaway, a girls' trip or a fun vacation with your family, we can make your experience as fun and memorable as possible.
