About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Secluded River Cabin Retreat with Outdoor Bathhouse and Kayaks on 80 acres!

Looking for a place to get away from it all? Don't want any neighbors nearby? Thunder Mountain Cabin-in-the-Woods is the perfect secluded retreat for anniversaries, honeymoons, or just a quiet place to escape by yourselves. Enjoy views of the river and Ouachita Mountains from the wrap around porch while you drink your morning coffee. Swim, kayak, tube, or paddle boat alone in the wide section of river. Hike four miles of private trails through 80 acres of pine forest and hills. Bathe in the outdoor bathhouse while enjoying the river and mountain views. There is no chlorinated pool, but the clear river and bathhouse are even better!

The deck includes a grill and patio furniture, as well as porch swings and chairs. There are 118 steps down to the river since the cabin sits high above the surrounding hills. The views on the way down are beautiful, and the hike on the way back up will leave you breathless! :-)

Both sides of the river are part of the property, and no other cabin or home sits on the 80 acres to help provide that true secluded get-away experience! The property enjoys 1/3 mile of riverfront and has about 4 miles of private trails.

Other things to note:
-Dogs for couples without kids will be considered if they do not shed, do not chew or scratch, and will be kept clean. A pet fee is required. Please contact owner before booking or insure that your booking includes the pet.
-The final 1/2 mile to the cabin is a rough dirt road. A small suv or truck is recommended, but a car should be okay if the weather is dry. This is a cabin in the woods, so even though we strive to keep it very clean, you may encounter some spiderwebs, bugs, and other nature.
-Three security cameras are located outside (Driveway area, Side of cabin, and toward the river. Guests are given instructions to switch off.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony or patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a fireplace. Limited housekeeping is available.

We only life a couple of hours away, but this place sure seemed a world away! We had everything we needed for a great little get away. We were able to bring both our dogs (with permission) only two adults staying. We enjoyed the seclusion and trails. The views were spectacular! Want to come back when we can take advantage of being in and on the water!

Really enjoyed our stay here! The outdoor bath house overlooking the creek was awesome. The cabin was stocked way better than any other VRBO we’ve rented before. Very remote but we had no visitors even tho we stayed on Friday the 13th lol! Floating the Caddo was a bonus. Will definitely visit again.

Weekend away with friends.

We loved everything about this place. The host was very communicative and accommodating. The seclusion and tranquility was amazing. It was 100+ degrees the entire time, so we very rarely left the river. The stairs down/up from the river are definitely not for the faint of heart. We would definitely book again.

Beautiful and peaceful place to stay. We are in our 50's and it was perfect for a relaxing getaway. If you bring children or teenagers (it was just the two of us), it might be better to come in the summer because there is more to do with the river. It was perfect for us though.

Just stunning... loved the view, hiking trails, kayaking on the river. Cabin was cozy and deck was awesome. Beware lots of stairs to climb down and up from the river. Built camp fires in the fire pits on top by the cabin and down by the river. Just perfect for the cool weather at night. Love love love!!

We celebrated our 41st anniversary. We walked the trails and explored most of the 80 acres. The steps are for young people but we made it! Quite place to hang out. We grilled every night. The weather was wonderful for March! Very clean. I texted Todd once. He responded quickly and answered my question! I do recommend this place!
