The Magnolia — A River-View Bungalow with Hot Tub

The Magnolia — A River-View Bungalow with Hot Tub, Fire Pit & Room for the Whole Crew
A two-bedroom, two-bath home-away-from-home on the banks of the Ouachita, where deck sunsets, hot tub soaks, and campfire nights come standard.

The Space
The Magnolia is the most full-featured cabin in our small riverside resort — a proper bungalow with everything you need to settle in and stay awhile. The fully equipped kitchen and large dining area make it easy to cook together, and the living room's wood-burning stove adds a cozy warmth on cooler evenings. When you're ready to be outside, the private deck delivers river views and hot tub access, and the outdoor fire pit is perfect for long nights under an impossibly starry sky.
Bedroom 1 — King bed
Bedroom 2 — Two twin-over-full bunk beds (great for kids or a flexible group)
The Magnolia offers WiFi and a Smart TV — log in to your streaming services or use it to stream a movie after a long day on the river. The private yard gives you space to spread out, and a charcoal grill is ready for your next cookout.

On the River
The Ouachita runs right alongside the property, and on-site canoe, kayak, and river tube rentals are available with an advance reservation — shuttles included. The river is gentle and family-friendly, winding past towering rock bluffs draped in wildflowers, through long flat pools and occasional Class I–II rapids. Fishing is outstanding: smallmouth, largemouth, and spotted bass, bluegill, catfish, walleye, longear sunfish, and more.
March through November brings the most popular conditions — spring wildflowers, summer shade on the water, and fall's brilliant foliage — but the Ouachita rewards visitors year-round.

Explore the Area
Short trails into the National Forest begin just steps from the cabin. Venture further and you'll find the Womble Trail, Ouachita Trail, and Lake Ouachita Vista Trail — exceptional routes for mountain biking and hiking. The Fourche Mountain Trail and other secluded forest roads are ideal for ATV exploration. Nearby, horseback riding, crystal mining, and road biking round out an already full menu of options.
A short drive brings you to Mount Ida, the Quartz Crystal Capital of the World — a must for rock hounds of any experience level. (A friendly note: please keep crystals out of the cabin, and we kindly ask that you take your finds home with you!)

After Dark
We're situated near one of the darkest sky areas in Arkansas. On clear nights the Milky Way is unmistakable, fireflies light up the tree line in season, and the occasional Bald Eagle, Great Blue Heron, or Roadrunner makes a daytime cameo. Roast marshmallows at the fire pit and let the night do the rest.
