Close to everything

Loved our stay. Super cute, close to everything we wanted to do, yet out far enough for that country feel. Spectacular view of the mountains and Current River. Will stay here again and will recommend to others.

Fantastic view!!

We wanted a clean place to stay that was located away from the packed 4th of July crowds, and this fit the bill. The female host was super nice and friendly, and the view of the fireworks in the river valley below was spectacular! Glad we stayed here.

Big Springs

This property was in a great location to Big Springs and Van Buren. It also, had a wonderful view from the patio, kitchen, living room and bedroom. In the morning there are thin clouds over the woods and it looks like your sittin above the clouds.
