Cabin was nice we enjoyed our stay. The waterfall behind the cabin is nice. Check in was great and host was very helpful. Just make sure you take food to cook unless you like gas station food and bad service at the restaurant down the road.

The best aspect of this cabin is the creek and waterfall in the back. It's pretty remote, 20 miles from nearest town, but that makes it pretty nice. We very much enjoyed the stay and plan to go back.

We had an amazing stay at the cabin. We had all the amenities we needed in the house. It included a fire pit in the back with lights hung up around it, grills, and an awesome waterfall right next to you that you can see from your chair. Plenty of parking space and if you have a ATV there's a covered shelter for it ( as we needed it due to rain). The cabin is super secluded away from everybody like your own place in the woods. If your there for the trails , there right down tge road minutes away and easy access. Cant say enough about our stay, we will definitely come back. We highly recommend it for friends and family.

Upon arrival it’s a cute little cabin nice front porch which needed to be swept off. Removed cobwebs off of everything before we could sit in it and then there was these big black ants on the front porch going into the house in the living room kitchen back steps they were everywhere except in our beds.. the property really needed to be mowed can’t utilize all the property because of the overgrown areas..evidently the place has “well water “ the smell was very unpleasant and after showering, you felt like you stank! There were three of us we all had problems with the Wi-Fi notified the host and they got back to us very promptly. I was the only one who could actually benefit from the Wi-Fi. The creek behind the house is very nice. You have to find one spot where you can access the creek because it’s really all grown up and the bank is high.. there is a nice slide and swings for children, but the grass has grown up all around them.Were unable to access the little swimming hole the water was crystal clear though and we did wade in it.. unfortunately I will not be a returning guest ..

Great stay!!!

This was a great place to stay! Most importantly to me, the house was very clean. The location is beautiful and there is a great little restaurant very nearby. Owner was very responsive to questions. My only complaint is that I didn’t realize there was no WiFi or TV service. I also had no cell service with Verizon.

The cabin was advertised as quiet and peaceful. Unfortunately this wasn’t our experience half of our stay. We didn’t know that the creek behind the cabin would be under construction by a bulldozer from 7 a.m.-3:30 p.m., almost the whole Saturday! If we would have been made aware we could’ve booked another time. The smell of the exhaust was nauseating, the sound was awful, and the water clarity was horrible.

Waterfall steps away!!

I fell in love with this secluded property as soon as we drove up. When I opened the car door, I could hear the stream running. The waterfall is literally in the back yard!! Be sure to carry water shoes, so you can walk the stream. The house itself was so nice and well decorated! It had everything you could need. There's a small convenience store and cafe about 1/2 mile from the driveway. Little Missouri Falls is about a 20-ish minute drive. If I'm in the area again, I'll definitely book this wonderful property again!

The cabin wasn’t easy to find the address given put me in a RV campground. I tried calling but there is no cell service for at least three miles.The woman at the store let me use her phone that she had hooked to WiFi. I got better directions this time. When I pulled up to the cabin the leaves were deep and the yard was never raked. The Creek mentioned in the ad was completely dry. The store had hardly anything. I didn’t get in until late in the day and it’s 40 miles round trip back to Mena for supplies. I was excited to get my SXS out in the morning because as the ad said convenient access to the trails.It was almost 10 miles to the trail head with no signage. After driving the forest roads to find the trailhead. I got to Wolf pen Gap. It was closed thru March ? I figured that someone who was a permanent resident of the area would know this. I have never seen a forest closed. I got no information from Fish and Game and every local seemed clueless. The property owner said this was my fault ? I didn’t know that the forest dept is in charge of the trails not the state. The cabin only had space heaters in an old wood cabin. The water had a lot of sulfur in it. The drive to the cabin required crossing a dry spillway which had quite a dip. I wouldn’t recommend a low clearance vehicle. My take on this trip. Stay in Mena trailer to the trails instead of staying where you need WiFi to make a call and staying in a tinder box with old space heaters
