Things to know:

The cabin is located in the woods, 1.9 miles down a gravel/dirt road. The cabin is surrounded by forest, so there will be bugs. The nearest town is Harrison, a 30-minute drive from the cabin. There is a convenience store located 2 miles from the cabin. There is another cabin located on the property. Please review the photos showing the location of each cabin.

No pets are allowed in the cabin; service animals are always welcome.

If you plan to float the Buffalo National River during your stay, we recommend checking the river levels in advance. The cabin is located in the Upper Buffalo River region, where water levels can drop during the summer months.

While some waterfalls may not be flowing without consistent rainfall, the bluffs and massive boulders around them are still incredible places to hike, explore, and take in the stunning scenery.
