We had a large group celebrating a birthday. There was plenty of space for everyone to relax and sleep without being crowded. We loved the close proximity to the different atv trails and the atv rental dropped units off for us. The hot tub was an added bonus after bouncing around on atvs and hiking. Well stocked and easy to communicate with host!

A Great Weekend Getaway in Mena

We had a great stay at the Back Roads Barn. From the game room Foosball Tournament to the hot tub and the fire pit, this place had exactly what we needed. And Mark and Alicia qualify as true Super Hosts - maybe the best VRBO hosts we've ever had!

Wolfpen gap

It was a perfect location for hitting the wolfpen gap trails. One of the trucks we had was pulling a 40ft trailer and had room to turn around. Very nice place. Was way to hot to use the firepit or hot tub, but we hope to return when it's colder. And when the six of us got ready we all had hot water for shower, which was amazing.
