About this property

Gated Hilltop Luxury Lodge on 100 acres - Relax and Enjoy AMAZING VIEWS

Cedar Ridge Lodge sits atop a wooded ridge on 100 acres of private, gated property called Mountain Vista Retreat. With breathtaking panoramic views, the spacious and well-appointed 3,714 sq. ft home offers the perfect getaway for groups and families seeking a rustic setting with modern amenities. Whether you relax on site or venture out into McCurtain County for nearby outdoor activities or points of interest, a stay at the Lodge will be memorable!

At the heart of the home is its great room with vaulted ceilings, stone fireplace, and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the beautiful Kiamichi Mountains. The open plan allows for easy access to the kitchen and dining area offering plenty of enjoyment space for larger groups. Guests appreciate the second large entertainment room well-suited for kids and teens. Relax on the furnished back patio, take a dip in the hot tub, gather 'round the fire ring to make s'mores, or square off for a rousing game of horseshoes. The 2-acre mowed backyard offers endless possibilities for fun. All ages will enjoy a stay at Mountain Vista Retreat.

McCurtain County is chock full of outdoor adventure opportunities. Swim at Broken Bow Lake, ATV through the Ouachita Mountains, cast a line in Lower Mountain Fork River, pet a skunk at Hochatown Petting zoo, or zoom 35mph on a zipline through Beavers Bend State Park. It's also home to breweries, wineries, distilleries, restaurants, casinos, museums, and more. There's something for everyone nearby, making a stay at Cedar Ridge Lodge as relaxing, or as active and adventurous, as you want.

Family trip

This trip was the most amazing trip. The cabin was perfect and so much more than we expected. Everything was so clean and supplied so well. The owners have went above and beyond to make sure you have an amazing vacation. The creek is the ultimate excursion. The beds were so comfy! And the bean bag chairs!! Wow. Can’t say enough positive about this place. I will be booking this one again soon!

Peaceful and secluded, amazing views

It was more than what we had expected. House was big enough for multiple families to each have their own space. Plenty of common areas for activities. Location is faraway from the hustle and bustle of the crowded towns, but still within distance if you needed to go to town. Bring everything you need including grocery's because it is secluded.

Petty

Nice property Some confusion on my part as to which device to enter code Didn't see keypad on door due to color but saw lock box which code didn't work on Also no way to turn "off" hot tub as instruction stated Would have liked direction about removing bedding and putting in laundry room? If necessary

Why they chose this property

Cedar Ridge Lodge at Mountain Vista Retreat has gorgeous views and is spacious and welcoming. It's comfortable for larger groups and families to gather and spend time together while offering plenty of space, indoors and out, for everyone to explore.

What makes this property unique

The outdoor fit pit and seating area is one of my favorites. The outdoor hot tub with mountain views is pretty awesome, too. The upstairs entertainment room that offers a second space for people to gather, watch tv and play games, gives kids and teens a place to be that's really fun for them.
