We loved this place. Comfy bed, well equipped kitchen, spacious bathroom, all very clean, very quiet location. We took the recommended walk out to see the view, which was spectacular. We would definitely stay here again.

So glad you had a wonderful
Trip. Absolutely wonderful guests, would gladly welcome back anytime!
Very relaxing and private location, but also quite close to Harrison for meals or groceries.
We enjoyed hiking and exploring the Buffalo national river area, and Sam was a responsive and friendly host. I would recommend visiting Sam’s cottage if you’re booking in the area 100%.
This property was in such a peaceful location, but still very close to town. Lovely house with great charm and character. Sam was easy to connect with while we were there. My family will definitely be staying here again when we are in Harrison again!!

I hope to welcome your family back for a longer stay next time. Thanks for being wonderful guests!!
The house was incredibly comfortable and had everything we needed (except a pizza cutter... ha!) We had a wonderful stay. The house had a couple of guidebooks - one on local waterfalls, in particular - that were helpful and gave us some great ideas for hiking. We'd love to stay again!

Ryan & Emily,
I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay - loved the beautiful flowers that were left. ❤️ I’m glad the books were helpful, I’m adding a pizza cutter to my list .✅. lol !!! I hope to host you again soon!
Great location and very quiet. Not to far to the river and town was close enough if you need to get something. House was better than we expected and just what we were looking for. The host was great and very accommodating for anything we needed. We would definitely stay here again if we are in the area. If you are looking for a quiet place to relax and still be a short trip to the river and hiking trails this place is perfect.

Thank you Patrick! I enjoyed meeting you and your family and I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay. I hope to see you again!
Thanks again!!!

The house was beautiful, as was the property. If you are looking for a place to relax and get away this is it! Sitting outside and watching the stars at night while making s’mores around the fire pit, or taking a short drive to the river to swim. Perfect for the family!
House was cozy and uniquely decorated. We were thrilled to listen to Fleetwood Mac on a record player! Hike to the view was so worth it - it was amazing. Location was quiet with perfect views for sunrise and sunset.
We had a very relaxing time at the Cozy Ozark Mountain Cottage. It was very quiet, and the views from the private trail overlooking the Buffalo River valley is just as good as some of the public trails we have been on, yet totally private. If you like being away from it all and plan to do things around Harrison or Jasper, this is a great place to stay.

I'm so glad that you had a great stay and found the view. Hope to welcome you back soon!
Walked out to the bluff this morning and we didn't want to leave. That view... just incredible. Sam was very quick to respond and even had the house ready for us early.
This home was wonderful!! Packed with amenities and things you’d enjoy during your stay. The property owner Sam was very helpful and friendly. We definitely would return and would recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in the area. :)

Thank you for being such wonderful guests, so glad you enjoyed your trip! ❤️
Nice little farm house with good location for upper Buffalo area. Far enough off main road, but not too long on gravel and it is a quiet location with only horses for neighbors.
Took our senior and her friend for a graduation trip. This place was perfect. When I tell you the view from the hiking trail was worth the price of the stay, that’s an understatement. My girls ranked the view as the best part of their trip. Would not hesitate to rent again. Loved it!!

We loved it. Clean, comfortable home in the country, but close to highway. Beautiful view of horses and sunsets. Well stocked. Friendly and accommodating host. We hope to have a reason to return.
