Leave your worries behind and come enjoy the great outdoors while staying in the BRAND NEW Arrowhead A frame cabin located on our sprawling Rocky Prairie Ranch overlooking the Buffalo National River Valley in the distance. We are conveniently located off Hwy 333 just under one mile from Hwy 65. With multiple points of access to the Buffalo National River, only minutes away from the cabin, along with three canoe outfitters to choose from. The Arrowhead A frame is a great choice for families that are wanting to enjoy the Buffalo River and all the fun activities of the surrounding Ozark mountains. The cabin features an open floor to ceiling living room with large stunning glass windows looking out towards the mountains and countryside. In the living room, you will find many seating options from a futon sleeper sofa, love seat, papasan chair and more while enjoying the smart TV with streaming apps and a DVD player with 100+ movies to choose from. Also, below the TV is a 50 inch LCD electric fireplace capable of many color and speed settings great for creating that mountain cabin ambience. Moving into the kitchen and dining area you have two options for dining either at the bar or dining table, each have seating for four. Both of which are made from trees milled right from the Ranch as you will find throughout the cabin . The cabin has a full kitchen with all necessary cookware including range/ oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, and Keurig Kcup coffee maker with a selection of coffee provided. Moving into the master bedroom you will find a plush queen bed along with two nightstands, a dresser, and a closet. Connecting to the master is the main bathroom, which has a custom walk-in shower with a large rain shower head for a relaxing experience. To the side of the main bathroom there is a washer and dryer, convenient for those on longer stays or as the need arises to do laundry. Going up the spiral staircase you will arrive in the upstairs bedroom/loft with adjacent half bath. The loft has been designed with four built in bunks, two of which are full size mattresses and two are twin size. Each bunk has their own animal themes. Each bunk has its own cubby, lights, and power outlets including USB outlets for charging devices. From the loft there is a balcony overlooking the living room and perfectly positioned to peer through the glass of the A frame looking out to the mountains to the east which lays the Buffalo National River. Awesome sunrises may also be seen through the large front windows with the cabin positioned due east. Due to all of the custom woodwork in cabin, we do not allow pets. Going outside you will find a front deck with seating that is elevated 6 feet above ground level providing spectacular views. This area of Arkansas and the Buffalo River has also been deemed an International Dark Sky Park, which affords you some breathtaking views of the stars right from the front deck of the cabin. On the back deck you will find a ramp for ease of access to the cabin for those that don't like stairs. Leading off the back deck is a pathway that leads to the firepit area. Large thousand pound boulders make up the seating area around the fire pit with the added seating option of a rustic wood slab top picnic table. Provided also is a propane gas grill for cooking burgers or such. The driveway to the cabin is a well cared for gravel driveway with multiple parking spots in front and beside the cabin. There is plenty of room for trailers also if needed. With our location you will find many activities to do close by on the Buffalo River National Park and surrounding Ozark National Forest from hiking, horse back riding , canoeing, fishing, hunting, rock climbing, spelunking, off road trails and more. Close by there are also several great dining options including Fergusons Country Store and Restaurant, which is less then one mile from the cabin. For those that would like to see a movie, the Kenda Drive-In located in Marshall, AR and is less than 15 minutes away. If a night out with dining and attractions is on your list, we are a little over an hour south of Branson, Missouri which offers many different attractions, events and restaurant choices. Harrison, Arkansas is a 35 to 40 minute drive which has many stores and restaurants also. So whether you are looking for an outdoor adventure or just some peace and quiet in the country we know you will love and enjoy a stay at our wonderful cabin.

Thank you Joel for the amazing review. We are happy you had a great time and enjoyed everything at the cabin. We would be happy to host you again if back in the area.
Clean, convenient to Buffalo River and local attractions.
The cabin had everything we needed. Tucked in a beautiful, secluded area, a short drive to the river, Marshal, and local restaurants. The owner is very friendly and close by if anything is needed. Highly recommend this cabin!
We enjoyed our time at this cabin. We floated and hiked the Buffalo River and spent the evenings at the cabin enjoying the outdoors (incredible star gazing here!). We liked the movie and game options in the cabin for evening entertainment.

Everything was thoughtfully prepared for us. The surroundings were beautiful, and the cabin itself was tidy and charming. I highly recommend this property!
The cabin is on the smaller side, but with 5 of us we liked how cozy it was. It was nice to be away from the road and be able to relax and feel alone. Max the donkey is a big highlight of the property (:

Thank you Samantha for the five star review. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and were cozy and able to relax.
A great home base for hiking and enjoying this beautiful part of the Ozarks. We cooked-out on the grill and enjoyed the night sky, listening to the frogs.

This is a unique style cabin. The environment is very beautiful. The owner is very friendly and nice.
The upstairs bunks and cozy living room made for a perfect girls’ weekend. The property is beautiful and we loved feeding Max the donkey carrots. Top tier property!

Thanks Jennifer for the exceptional review. We are glad you had the perfect girls weekend and that you were able to feed Max carrots. He does rotate around the property to other fields, so sometimes he will not be in the field by the cabin; but when he is, he loves the attention and carrots. We would be happy to host you again next time.
We had a wonderful family time at the cabin. It was quaint, well appointed, great views and location. We loved the bunk room upstairs and all the games and DVDs available. The fire pit was perfect and the stars were the best we have ever seen. The location was great for canoeing on the Buffalo too. We would stay here again for sure!

Thank you Andrea for the awesome review! We are so glad you and your family had a perfect getaway. The view of the night sky and the stars is one of my favorite things around here besides floating the Buffalo River. We would be happy to host you again.
The cabin was clean and presented accurately online. The kitchen is stocked, and the gas grill worked easily. We came to float, and the proximity to the Gilbert General store was perfect! Highly recommend this property!

We enjoyed our stay. The property is beautiful and the cabin is very spacious for a couple or small family. The cabin is on a working ranch property, and the owners live nearby in view of the cabin. There are a couple good restaurants very close nearby, and there are two Buffalo river access points within a 10 minute drive.

We loved everything about our stay here. The cabin was beautifully built, clean, lots of games, beautiful view, and the owners were the sweetest!. I loved waking up and sitting out on the front porch drinking coffee, watching the cattel, and only being able to hear nature. This was such a peaceful place to be and we can't wait to come back.

About the host
Hosted by Kevin Berkley
Our family enjoys doing activities outdoors; such as kayaking, hiking, and fishing. We love nature and animals. We want to host to give people an opportunity to enjoy and explore the wonderful area near the Buffalo National River.
Why they chose this property
Our ranch is a unique rural property that is tucked away off the main hwy, yet convenient to all the surrounding attractions. Affording us peace ,quiet and privacy, yet we have thousand of acres of National Park land 5 minutes away to enjoy while still being easily accessible. Our ranch has views of the surrounding Ozark mountains along with many aspects of nature all around us.
What makes this property unique
The cabin is right in between two of the most popular put in and take out points on the Buffalo River. Those being Tyler Bend and Gilbert. Making it very convenient to spend the day canoeing the river and being very close to your place of stay. The middle section of the Buffalo river also has more consistent flow throughout the year allowing paddlers to enjoy the river year round.
