Absolutely beautiful place. We spent four days in and out to the various activities in the area, but were also content to spend much of our visit on the back porch overlooking the pasture. The house was incredibly clean and welcoming. Loved it!

The house was perfectly clean! It was very nice and relaxing to stay at. Getting visits from the neighbor dogs was the highlight of the trip for our kids. That and getting to see the cows. Will definitely be staying here next time we visit!

2/10 Terrible

The hosts were very nice and the check in was simple. The place was clean, roomy and had a nice back porch. I would suggest more and bigger ice cube trays since their water isn't very cold.

Beautiful Peaceful Property.

Our stay in Timbo was very relaxing and peaceful. The house was great, the views beautiful and it was fun to watch the cattle in the pasture.Only 15 min to Mountain View or Leslie and maybe 35 min. to Marshall. It was a very nice visit.

Gorgeous views

Absolutely loved the house. Picturesque views and George was the sweetest dog. The house is perfect, comfortable beds, porch swings for drinking your morning coffee and watching the spectacular sun rises. Quiet location but close to lots of outdoor adventures and plenty of quaint shopping.

Wonderful place!

We use VRBO for all of our vacation needs & this is definitely a new favorite!! I’m ready to go back & my daughter just texted saying she wishes we were still there. Such a nice place & we loved the animals coming to visit. The owners are so nice & make the best cookies!! Can’t wait to return to just sit on the back porch!

Perfect place to stay in Mountain View

The house was clean, had everything you needed to feel like home. We had an infant and a 4 year old. The cows are the best neighbors and the landscape is well maintained. I was worried about ticks and fleas but they keep the area well maintained and it was perfect. We were greeted with the BEST cookies and flowers. We will definitely be back!

Relaxing Getaway

This rental was even nicer than indicated by the other reviews. It was uber clean, we felt very safe, the front and back porches were especially ideal for sitting and relaxing or just visiting. The view over the back pasture was just picturesque. We will definitely stay here again when in the area and would highly recommend it to friends and family. The hosts Billy and Nancy made us feel so at home and welcome, and were very responsive to all of our questions. Scott and Linda from Stacy, MN

Peaceful Retreat

My family and I had an amazing time at this property. The house was just as advertised with the most amazing porch and view to enjoy a cup of coffee. The hosts were outstanding, I've rented houses all over the U.S. and not one single host left us a welcoming gift and they left some amazing treats. Side note, the things to know list they made was very helpful and when you stay here, unpack like normal and then read that list and see if you got some visitors like we did. This made us smile. Great place to stay with peace and quiet and lots of fun things to do in the area. Highly recommend.

Exceptional!

We came to the area for three nights to hike and attend a Bluegrass Festival in Mt. View, AR. This place was wonderful--spacious, updated, comfortable, quiet, and spectacularly clean! Front and back decks (porches :-)) had seating and provided a peaceful, beautiful view of the farm complete with grazing cows. It is a short drive (12 minutes) to Mt. View and 20 minutes or so to some nice hikes. House was well stocked with needed items and hosts communicated well--we even had homemade chocolate chip cookies waiting for us when we arrived! We have stayed in other places in Mt. View, but this place will definitely be our first choice for lodging in the future.

Secluded Spot for Total Eclipse Viewing

So lucky to have found this hidden gem near Mountain View. We booked over a year in advance to see and experience the total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024. My husband brought two telescopes for the solar eclipse and the weather cooperated nicely. The photos are accurate and the house was even better than expected, very clean and had everything we needed for our 4-night stay with friends. Easy check-in process and great hospitality from the host, Billy, who checked in a couple of times to make sure we didn't need anything. The fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies were delicious. I enjoyed the visit from the big dog George on our last day. I would recommend visiting Mountain View for an afternoon and definitely visit the amazing Blanchard Springs Caverns (pre-book your ticket online).
