About this property

Quiet rustic retreat on the White River across from Handford Bluff

Lovely1600+ sq/ft cabin directly on the White River with stunning views of Handford Bluff, which towers hundreds of feet above the far bank. Rustic charm with modern conveniences, this beautiful cabin has three bedrooms and two full baths, a two-story open great room with gas fireplace, large front and rear porches, and a gas grill and firepit. Located directly on the river, making this the perfect spot for fishing, kayaking, or swimming. Enjoy the tranquility of nature but also just a short drive to bluegrass/folk music in Mountain View's world-famous town square, to the Ozark Folk Center, to Blanchard Springs cavern, or to the epic Syllamo mountain bike trail... something for everyone!

Please note that while the cabin will sleep eight including children, it is generally not suitable for eight adults. As noted in the description, one of the beds is a full size futon in same the room with a queen bed. This bedroom is accessible only by stairs. A gate is on hand for use by guests with children unable to navigate stairs.

This cabin is part of the White River Retreats collection.

Impromptu Swimming Hole Trip!
The weather has been miserably hot so our family decided to make an impromptu trip looking for swimming holes to cool off! This cabin fit the bill perfectly!!! The kids were swimming in the river the first evening! The next day we went to Blanchard Springs Caverns for a tour and swam in two different swimming holes before returning to swim some more. The next day we spent all day swimming and catching trout at the cabin. We checked out the next day and hit Gunner Pool before heading home. The cabin’s remoteness was perfect for us. It was clean and cozy. The kitchen was well stocked and the grill was a bonus. Relaxing on the porch was great, even in the sweltering heat. The kids absolutely loved it and were asking to come back soon and of course, stay longer. Check in and out was easy. I would absolutely recommend this little gem and hopefully we will be back soon.

Perfect Family Vacation
The cabin was perfect for our family vacation with the river and fire pit out back our kids spent all day outside play, fishing, swimming and making s’mores. While it was a 20-30min drive to town it was the perfect location to get away and be disconnected from work and social media. The cabin had all the basics making our stay convenient and easy. Highly recommend!!

Great family getaway
Our family of five enjoyed a quick getaway to this wonderful cabin. The entire property was beautiful and exactly as portrayed in the pictures. The check in process was very easy, the cabin was well stocked, very clean, and nicely decorated. We enjoyed fishing just in back of the cabin, saw wildlife, and also enjoyed some time checking out the shops in Mt. View. We have already recommended this property to several friends and family who saw our pictures. We would definitely enjoy coming back again!

Great cabin. Secluded and quiet.
If you are looking for a relaxing location, this is the place. Cabin was fully stocked with everything you might need. Our location along the river front was perfect for wading and playing in the water as well as fishing.
