This was exactly what I was looking for! Not too gar from downtown, but still with the "cabin away from everything" feeling. There were a decent amount of camel crickets and spiders inside upon checking in (mostly in the bathroom and bottom floor bedroom) which took me a little while to capture and put outside, but otherwise everything was ship shape. Thank you kindly for a relaxing and hassle-free stay!

Our stay here was amazing. The location is quiet, but close to everything you need. The cabin is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need for cooking, cleaning up, and staying warm and cozy! The outside is set up perfectly for a fire on the back porch or star gazing in the front lawn. Communication was wonderful, and overall it was perfect. This will definitely be our go to when we are in town!

Perfect stay!

Our family stayed here a couple nights so we could float the Buffalo River. Our stay was perfect. This cabin is incredible. The decor is modern yet cozy. There is a chalkboard wall to mark your stay too that is fun. The outdoor areas are great. We used the black stone to cook one night and we did s’mores also. The host was also great with any questions or requests I had.

Short hiking trip

This was such a cute and quaint/cozy cabin; just perfect for the 3 adults in our group! It was thunderstorming as we arrived and very easy to get in quickly, easy to park and unload closer to the back door. Had everything we needed to cook. Plenty of warm water for all of our showers and extremely comfy beds! Wish we had more time there!! Thank you!

Perfect location and beautiful place

We book a trip to the Jasper area at least 2/year for a hiking trip getaway and this was our first at the Arkansan and we will be back. It was an amazingly convenient location and the cabin was gorgeous, cozy, and immaculate. Leanna was a great host, answered questions quickly and kept us informed about local restaurants. We look forward to our next trip.

otorcycle riding

After arrival and gaining access we unloaded and went for a ride and stopped for Dinner. When we returned we could not get the electronic combo lock to open. We sent message to property manager and waited for about an hour with no response. Fortunately we found the window in kitchen was unlocked and my cousin (66 yrs old) was able climb through and open the door. We left door unlocked for remainder of stay.

It is A little cabin very close to Jasper. There is another cabin next to it but you have your own space and the stone work outside with the fireplace is A nice setting. It is very kid friendly, but it does have stairs. It was A very relaxing trip. back in time.

Perfect resting place after a day on the river.

Easy to find. Secluded, yet right off the main road Cabin was better than the pics online. Exceptionally clean, quiet and cool. Beds were comfy with the softest linens and perfect pillows. All of the appliances were new and the kitchen was fresh and inviting. My best friend and I stayed here after a long hot day on the river and both said it was the best part of our trip. I told my husband I want to take him back to see it and stay again!

Nice Cabin and Host

No complaints really. Only suggestion, would be nice to provide a quick reference map of area sites or attractions and maybe a list of restaurants or places to get groceries/food. There is a Harps a short distance away in Jasper. Overall, we liked it, would go again…
