ESCAPE THE CROWDS to the Great Outdoors!

Sky Hawk Ridge is place of extraordinary beauty, a 185-acre natural refuge at the gateway to Buffalo River National Park. This spacious vacation home is sited on a high ridge bordering the park, with acres of lawn and groves of stately trees all around. Wide front and back porches afford gorgeous sunrise and sunset views. There’s a small pond in front.

THE LAND

When you stay at Sky Hawk Ridge, you won't stay inside for long. Roam the land and discover the wonders of this beautiful landscape. Enjoy misty morning walks through dew-covered fields. When you walk along Sky Hawk's long ridge, you see layered green hillsides and distant blue ridge lines across the Buffalo River Valley, rolling meadows with sentinel oaks, cattle grazing in lush pastures, deep green woods -- nature's beauty at every turn.
Explore miles of private trails that wind through dense forests and beside crystal streams. Wildlife is everywhere -- deer, turkey, fox, owls, songbirds, and all sorts of woodland creatures. Be dazzled by spring flowers, blue summer skies, rich fall colors, or foggy winter mornings. Sky Hawk Ridge is a nature-lover's paradise all year long.

LOCATION

Sky Hawk is just off US 65 on the north side of the Buffalo River. Restaurants, canoe rentals and river access points at Grinders Ferry, Gilbert and Tyler Bend are less than ten minutes away, but at Sky Hawk you’re secluded and surrounded by natural beauty -- away from it all.

The entrance is on the Gilbert Road (Hwy. 333), just 0.4 mile east of US 65. This cabin is at the end of the road, about 3/4 mile from the entry.

The Sky Hawk property has 3/4 mile of park frontage, and the Buffalo River Trail is just steps from the property corner. The park trail leads a mile or so downhill to a long, wide gravel bar at Shine Eye Bluff -- the perfect spot to picnic, swim, fish or enjoy a lazy afternoon. (Shine Eye is also accessible by road, a five-minute drive.)

ACCOMMODATIONS

Built in 2008, the “Ranch House” has a relaxed, western vibe. Cowhide rugs, western and wildlife art, rustic wood finishes, and stained concrete floors set a laid-back tone.

There’s a large, vaulted great room with seating for eight, a long dining table, and four barstools around a central kitchen island.

The house is equipped with a washer and dryer, full-size appliances (but no dishwasher), cooking utensils and dishes, central heat and air conditioning, ceiling fans, and a small gas fireplace in the living room for extra warmth on cold nights. It is meticulously maintained and sparkling clean.
