About this property

Amazing Riverfront View with a Unique Old Time Building Charm

Blackfork Old Hay Loft cabin is located south of Hodgen, Oklahoma in the Ouachita National Forest on 105 Acres of land connecting to US Forest Service on the North and South boundaries of the property.

We offer a cozy cabin that sleeps up to 8 in beds perfect for all types of vacation getaways. It also has 5 hammock hooks on the back porch. From groups to families, we can accommodate those looking for spending time with loved ones.

We have another cabin near this one and can accommodate larger groups that are wanting to rent out both cabins. (Vrbo listing #1854705)

Our cabin is a modern rural get-away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life! It has all the comforts of home with the exception of Wifi and Television. Instead, there is a large deck with lots of seating areas facing the river that showcases the beauty of the outdoors. You can enjoy watching the wildlife from the comfort of the cabin.

The river is a short walk from the cabin. You can enjoy secluded access to swimming, canoeing, kayaking, or just wading around in the cool water. The bottom of the river is covered in beautiful river rocks so water shoes are recommended for stability.

We have kayaks and paddleboards available to rent for $40 to use the whole length of your stay, and inter-tubes for free (stored beneath the deck). There is a great area for watercraft accessibility in front of the other cabin on the property. Please message us if you are interested in these additional features!

We make your vacation in the forest effortless. All you need to bring is your food and clothes! It’s that easy. Phone service is hit or miss at the cabin but a short trip up the road will make phone calls possible if necessary.

If you love being outdoors or admiring nature, then this is the perfect stay for you and your loved ones! Our cabin in the woods is the perfect place to escape and connect to nature.

Great time for a family

Great time for a family to step away from the busyness of normal life, and relax together. Our children are 5 to 18 years, and so it was ideal for our family of nine. We rented kayaks as well, which made our stay even better.

Review from the guests that stayed right after you guys: We thoroughly love this place! This was our 3rd visit to the same cabin we will most definitely be back soon! The host is amazing and quick to respond as well as maintains and always has a clean property! Great place to fish, swim, hike, and get away for the peace and quiet we sometimes need! I am going down this weekend and can't wait for the river, we will tube, fish, paddle board and swim and kids will love it and make memories for life!

About the host

Hosted by Josh Snyder

Host profile image
This Cabin was moved from Poteau in the summer of 2013 and was finished remodeling in 2014. It was bought from a 92 old lady that remembers as a young teenager climbing the ladder when it was a hay barn. She told us it was over 100 years old and was glad to see it getting saved. Moving it to Black Fork from Poteau was an amazing task with cutting many trees back, building new roads and the characters that moved it could have been on a TV show for their amazing humor and work ethic! The Cabin now sits where another cabin previously sat that was probably close to 1880s. It fell in a snow storm in 2010 and the only remains are some barn wood inside the current cabin and the smoke house (or my grandma thinks chicken coop) that is still currently next to the cabin. There is another cabin on the property only the exploring guests find. It is probably close to 1880s and crazy to imagine that a family of 10 or 15 probably lived in that place.
