About this property

The Upstairs Hideaway

Relax and refresh at the Upstairs Hideaway on Whittington. Conveniently located in downtown Mount Ida within walking distance of restaurants, shops, parks and the museum. Just minutes away from Lake Ouachita and crystal digs.

Newly constructed upstairs apartment with open living room/kitchen area with queen sleeper sofa. Bedroom with bunk beds and closet space. Many comfy pillows and blankets available. Kitchen well stocked with dishes and cooking utensils, pots and pans, ice maker, condiments, reverse osmosis system for drinking water and ice and a dishwasher. Bathroom has large shower, good lighting, a hair dryer and small containers of necessities just in case. Out on the patio there is a gas grill and a wood firepit.

Behind the apartment is a perfect place to wash crystals, dirty boots, dirty kids, etc. A water hose and tubs are available. If you would like to use the gas grill just ask for the propane cylinder and I will hook it up. There is also an extra stall in the ground floor garage which can be used to store large valuables like bicycles or park your car inside during bad weather.

About the host

Hosted by Paula Morphew Newsom

Host profile image
I'm Paula and I live in the little rock house just in front of the Upstairs Hideaway. I really enjoy meeting my guests and hearing about where they are from and why they happened to be staying in Mount Ida.

Why they chose this property

Mount Ida is a quaint and quiet little town. It's known as the Quartz Crystal capital of the world. There are 4 crystal mines in the area. Lake Ouachita is just a few miles away too. I'm lucky to say that both sides of my parents' families are from this area and I'm very happy to be retired now and able to return here.

What makes this property unique

The apartment is newly constructed in 2022/2023. Guests are within walking distance to downtown with restaurants, parks and stores. During summer months there is live music every Saturday night on the town square which is only a block away.
