Rustic life
Convenient location for our needs. Back porch was wonderful. The bathouse was a great addition. Lighting the campground was beautiful at night.All the conveniences needed was at hand. Needs light bulbs in every light fixture. Upstairs could use a good sweeping.Mammoth Springs State Park was a great outing and great food about 4 miles up the road.

Unsatisfactory
We rented this cabin for a bachelorette partyFor my future daughter-in-law and we were disgusted. Let’s start off with how it had a terrible smell. We then discovered moldy and old chilli and cinnamon rolls in the oven. The bed sheets were stained and nasty. There was mold in the shower, on the shower curtain, in the window, and probably other places around the cabin. The pull out couch was something I have never seen. Stains, crumbs, and mice droppings EVERYWHERE. There was mouse droppings and rat poison in the windows as well. The last night we were there we found fleas. My daughter actually has bite from them. There were ants crawling on the walls, the bath mat was stained and unwashed, and we had to buy essentials for the cabin our selves. We also had to buy our own sheets and blankets because we don’t believe they were ever washed. Amounts of food was left in the cabinets and fridge

The Big Cabin
We enjoyed our 3 day stay. The Big Cabin was just right for the 4 of us. Really enjoyed the big back porch after a long day. If anything negative, it would be that there was only 1 bed that wasn't a bunk bed. Look forward to staying again.

Great weekend floating stay
Fantastic for the price point. We had to wash a few of the dishes before cooking with them and buy our own toilet paper and paper towels, but otherwise a very pleasant weekend getaway! Comfortable mattresses and A/C worked great.

The big cabin
The cabin needed tons of work. It also needed a good deep clean. A lot of old, out dated food in cabins as well as fridge. For the price, and no longer then we was actually in the cabin we dealt with it. We floated the Spring river. They picked us up from the cabin, and dropped us off. So for us it was well worth it. If you are bougie
you will not be able to stay In The big cabin.

Had a wonderful time would recommend for a family with pets.will be returning
For two guys in their 20's-30's who only need a place to crash after fishing, it's OK. All bedrooms upstairs, BR is down stairs. Stairs are steep with 4-5 inch runners. If you have to get up at night to urinate, it's dangerous. Full of mice and mice droppings. Front door has to be almost kicked open. Dishwasher won't close unless you lift up the counter. Not a place for kids or wives. Full of other peoples stuff, like the owner's adult daughter was living there and only left because we arrived.

Rugged & Rustic Cabin
This is a great place for adventurous outdoor enthusiasts! Probably not appropriate for children under 5 & unaccommodating to most ladies—far too rustic. With the change of seasons, it could use a good spring cleaning—inside & out. The property is conveniently located right off of a 5 lane HWY (minutes from activities), and the backyard is welcoming & well maintained. The surrounding area is worth revisiting!
We had a wonderful time. Enjoy the cabin. Plenty of room for a guest of nine had all the kitchen equipment, refrigerator, stove, barbecue pit picnic benches as needed and some supplies were already there to have a really good gathering of friends the owner, Chris Gray has plans for putting in Amusement park For the kids and dog area.
Which the owner is pet friendly we’re only a mile from the best fishing area in Mammoth Springs very close to our property in Cherokee Village which we have some undeveloped plan that we plan on making our place in the future. We definitely plan on going back this summer to the same cabin.🎣😎🏡🌞💗

Sadly Can’t Recommend
The Big Cabin has character & nice grounds, but I had to spend our first night cleaning. Everything was filthy. First sign was the fridge that contained a remnant of a piece of fried chicken, a dirty napkin, a million condiment bottles (some empty/expired), & something spilled. Next, kitchen counters & dish drying rack were sticky, so everything in it went straight to the dishwasher along with anything we thought we might need to use. Then the bathroom… hair(s) in shower & a dirty toilet… Bed linens appeared to be clean or else we would have found a hotel.
Needs a complete cleaning top to bottom. Last hotel in this town wasn’t much better, so we had high hopes for a cabin rental. Wish I had listened to the bad reviews.

Cozy cabin. Not to far but not to close to town. 2 minutes drive to the fishing hole. Literally everything you'll need from the kitchen to the bedrooms. Definitely coming back in the foreseeable future

Roomy Cabin
The cabin was probably twice as big as the pictures made it look. Definitely rustic, but an excellent value. It’s at the top of a small campground and we had the place all to ourselves so it was a lot of fun. I would bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper as the cabin is just off the highway and big trucks rumble through all night. Our heavy sleepers had no issues. I would definitely recommend to others, especially if you want a cabin hangout with your family.

Family cabin
The property owner was great to work with. He promptly responded to all messages. This is a cozy cabin, great for families. This is not a posh, luxurious place. Beds were comfortable, recliners were comfy, and the AC worked well. There was a musty odor, but I think the odor was also outside was also outside in the humid summer air. The refrigerator was dirty. Once I cleaned the fridge, I was able to appreciate how clean everything else was. In all, our family enjoyed our stay.

No No No!!
Chose this property because of location and reviews on VRBO. Began to worry when we pulled up in front and saw tattered mini blinds. This was without a doubt the dirtiest building I have ever been in. Does not look like the pictures at all. Cobwebs and dust bunnies everywhere and the refrigerator is not the same refrigerator as in pictures and was nasty. Used wash rags and soap in a dirty shower. No way we would stay here and certainly would not let my grandchildren. We found another cabin for the night nearby, not through VRBO. One of the reviews says this is a typical Arkansas cabin. It is not!!
