The house is very nice, set in a beautiful area. The grounds have plenty of parking area. The home is older and does show its age. It wasn't as clean as it could've been.The listing to me was not clear to me on the pricing. Although the house sleeps a lot of people, over 4 were charged extra. Overall the setting and location was beautiful.

Relaxing and Fun Getaway

Start the day with coffee on the porch viewing wildlife and nature! Fishing in the pond was fun, and we caught fish!!! Trail riding was awesome. Mr. Terry, shared all the wonderful places to visit on the trails. Mena was just an easy, short trip so we visited several times! We can't wait to go back!

Arkansas Paradise

This place is so much more than its pics. Spacious home, safe area, local attractions a step away. You won't get better hospitality. We loved the fishing, atv riding, playing in the creeks and rivers, the house had it's own entertainment with TVs, wifi, pool table, darts. Lots of room lots of fun! Great neighborhood. We all wanted to take the house home with us! Can't wait to come back! Rocking P Lodge on Facebook

Hidden gem

I'm so glad that we found this location. We've visited Mena many times as our family likes to ride ATVs in Ouachita National Forest. Finding a location large enough for our large family of 10 to 15 to stay is always a challenge. But this place was fantastic. There were games, there was fishing, and there was even Bob the farm dog. The house was clean, well stocked in the way of household needs and kitchen supplies, plenty of sleeping space with very comfortable beds. The home was decorated with such unique decor and interesting family history. but to top it all off, the owner visited each day, shared his knowledge of the forest, offered his assistance in any way he could, and in short we made a new friend. this will be our number one spot for staying in Mena going forward. Highly, highly recommended

Double Booked

I booked this place on February 7, 2023, for April 6–10, 2024. I drove from Virginia for the total eclipse. I also had friends and family in from five states. On April 3, 2024, I got an email from VRBO with my trip details, including the address and entry method. When I arrived on April 6, I called the property owner, per the property instructions. The property owner informed me the place was double booked. I called and talked with the property manager (both live in town). They informed me that VRBO and another website they use double booked it, and this was VRBO’s fault. The group already there used another website to book it. The property manager found me another place to stay with fewer beds, which I had to pay for out of pocket. I did not get my refund for the first place until after the trip. In addition, I had to pay way more for the second place. I called VRBO on April 12. They said I should have called VRBO for assistance when I found the property double booked and that calling on April 12 was too late. The town was booked full due to the eclipse. VRBO accused the property manager for not syncing the websites. I had to spend more money for less house than I paid for over a year before. I communicated these issues with the property manager and have not received a response. VRBO was no help. I’m posting this review because I have no other method to promulgate my experience.

Kindest people with beautiful views

Arkansas was just amazingly beautiful and the scenery from this place did not disappoint! Owner was beyond helpful and kind and checked in on us most days to make sure we had all we needed. Property manager was always available, helpful and pointed out wonderful restaurants. Plenty of room if you have a large gathering. Garage availability was amazing! Pool table was a lot of fun as well. We rode some wonderful trails and it was quite an experience.

Perfect Family Vaca Location

I took all my kids, spouses and grandkids for a family mini vaca. The owner was so kind and helpful! The property is beautiful, peaceful and secluded but also very close to Walmart and other things you might need. Rode ATVs to the trails daily, great location. The house is older but had everything we needed and accommodated our family perfectly. Kids caught fish daily, loved our daily visits from the cattle and the cats! We would stay again for sure!

Great place to stay. You can ride the trails, fish, Bar BQ, and hot tuub. All in 1 visit

As a group of 12 we road trails everyday of our 4 day stay. Some of the people did not want to ride the trails everyday and they went to town to shop some of the local shops. Some hung around house and fished or hot tubbed. We bar bq the evening meal every night. Made a fire for the women folk one night with a little nagging., The house was great. Clean, nice and ready for our gang. Terry was a great host. Terry showed us how to operate the house, hot tub, lake, and how to read the trail map. We had a great time. Thank you Vrbo and hosts.

If I had a home in Arkansas

This was our 3rd time to stay at this property. Terry the owner is like your long lost uncle you’re glad you found. Experience amazing sunrises on the back deck overlooking the pond as geese & ducks fly in. Home is central to all trails, can ride anywhere right from the house. Soak in the hot tub as the sunsets. Always plenty of wood for s'mores time. We’ll be back.

Talk About Relaxing!!!

We were a group of 12 the youngest was 9 & the oldest was 64. Vivian was a charm to work with always answering any question that came up. Mr. Terry was waiting on us when we arrived at the property to give us a tour of the home. Wish we could have visited with him more. But being we were staying over Christmas I’m sure he was with his family. The house is well laid out. The pool table downstairs was used everyday. Thank you so much for sharing your place with us.
