Beautiful place and it had close access to the boat ramp. It was however a little close to the neighboring rentals for our liking though, no privacy when cooking outside or sitting at the picnic table. We cooked fast and took it inside to eat.

Dogwood Cottage

Beautiful property on a quiet little cove of Lake Ouachita. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. Close to outdoor activity areas (hiking, kayaking on the lake). Wonderful sunsets down by the boat launch. We really enjoyed our stay.

Tucked away in tiny town

Overall, our stay in Dogwood Cottage was pretty good! The cottage itself was just the right size for the 3 of us. The view of the lake is beautiful any you can walk right down to swim or explore. My only 2 complaints are that the shower didn’t drain very well and the bed was not very comfortable. We would stay here again.

Very pretty area

The cabin was very nice. Did have a problem getting into the bed. Too high for a shorter person to get into comfortably. Could also use a side table in the bedroom and one next to the sofa. Very quiet and lovely area.
