About this property
Amazing Experiences Await Your Group - Family or Friends
Secluded in the forest and nestled in a quiet neighborhood, this beautiful two-level vacation paradise has restful vistas, lots of outdoor space, boat dock on a placid lake, and access to the best mountain bike trails in the country! With four comfortable bedrooms plus an office with a convertible day bed; 3.5 baths; efficient and equipped kitchen & dining room, both with eating areas; extensive deck areas; pine shiplap ceilings, two fireplaces, laundry facilities, and an appealingly open floor plan but still private spaces when needed; this vacation space is everything you’re looking for! Located in the heart of the Back 40 Bike Trails, there are mountain biking trails all around. Bikes are safe in the enclosed garage when not in use. Swim when it's hot in the man-made lake, then play games, solve world problems, or just relax at the deck table with your compatriots, or around the firepit below on the ground level. Spend the evening - or early morning, or any time of day - enjoying the views of the lake, the wildlife, and the feeling of being lost in nature. Cook on the grill, find one of the myriad restaurants in the area, or enjoy a picnic. Anything’s possible, and pleasant, at this delightful lake house home away from home! NOTE: Please follow checkout instructions before departing; they’re in the guestbook on the counter, and very basic, but so helpful! Also, due to the frequency and expense of occurrence, there will be a base charge of $25 to return items left behind by guests. Please, check all rooms for personal belongings before you go! Thank you. IMPORTANT: Because this home is in a quiet neighborhood on a winding road, parking on the road is NOT allowed. Vehicles are limited to what will fit in the property space - usually no more than 5. Gatherings of more than the maximum 14 registered guests are NOT allowed without express permission and arrangements with the owners. Please do not bring non-registered guests for gatherings here. Outdoor quiet is expected after 11 p.m. We love our neighbors and respect their needs and wishes, so we expect our guests to be kind to them as well. If we receive reports that these rules are not being followed, you will receive a call or text. A second contact may result in eviction without refund, so please don't make this happen! Enjoy your stay while being considerate of the residents, please.

This is the second time our Group of 14 women have stayed at this property. We travel each fall to attend area craft fairs. The property fits all our needs.

So glad you came back! We hope you'll keep us in your tradition. You're great guests.
Great home for large groups! The home is close to town and bike trails. The kitchen (and grill) was more than adequate for large group cooking. The deck, patio and dock were all great after ride areas to hang out before or after the sun went down. Host was responsive and very friendly.

Thank you for taking time to leave your great review! Small things help a lot, and your details go far.
House was amazing. Even though we had 14 of us there it never felt cramped. Plenty of space in all the rooms and downstairs. Host was super attentive to any questions we had. Can’t wait to stay there again.

Thank you for such a great review! We sure hope you will honor us with a return visit!
House was clean and large enough for our group of 10 adults (2 families). Amenities were nice! Host was very easy to work with and great communication and response time. Lake access from house. Fished off dock, foosball table, park was close for pickleball and several golf courses in area. Short drive to Bentonville. Would book with this host again!

Thank you for the specifics in your wonderful review! We appreciated you as guests and hope you’ll return.
We stayed here during or semi-annual mountain biking trip to NW Arkansas. Place was VERY nice and it fit our groups needs nicely with a large number of beds and bathrooms. Beautiful location and lots of space. Highly recommend it.

This was a perfect place for us to stay while getting our children and grandchildren together for the weekend. The house is beautiful and very clean! It had all the things we needed for meals. We look forward to staying there again.

Thank you so much for your review! You were great guests, and we look forward to hosting you again!
Our annual golfing trip is always looking for accommodations that allow a bunch of guys to hang out watch football and relax after a hard day on the course. This place fit the bill to to tee!

Thank you for a specific and helpful review! We're so glad you enjoyed your time at our place.
This property was great. It was easy to find and tucked away just enough to give an outdoorsy feel. The view of the lake was great as well.
Highway access was easy, and neighboring cities are only a quick drive away.
Our family of 14, representing three generations, thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The home offered ample space to accommodate everyone comfortably and was exceptionally well-stocked with supplies and amenities. The deck was a particular highlight, providing the perfect setting for both morning coffee and evening conversations. Carla proved to be an outstanding host, responding promptly and helpfully to any questions we had. We would be delighted to stay here again on a future visit, should the property be available.

Thank you so much for your truly helpful review! We look forward to having you return.
The owners of the home were amazing in their communication with us, from months before our stay and all the way up to our last day of the trip. Karla is a one of a kind host! The house was located perfectly and had everything we needed. We will be staying here again next year!

We play Bella Vista courses once year. Our group of 12 plays for 3 days. This was a wonderful location with great hosts, clean home, and plenty of beds.
We had a lovely time at this beautiful and spacious home. The lakefront was beautiful for watching birds and the sunset. Host very responsive to our needs.

About the host
Hosted by Karla or Tim Cox
We originally came to Arkansas to visit family members. Now those family members and we are sharing our delight in this area with you! We raised a large family, and now enjoy splitting our time between our children and grandchildren, and our vacation rentals. We enjoy traveling and the diversity of the world and its people; we also enjoy getting to know people virtually, by sharing our homes and the pleasant settings of each locale. We really hope you find joy in this forested paradise as we do!
Why they chose this property
This peaceful property is so calming and beautiful, situated on a quiet, secluded lake with large trees, great views and a hillside setting. You will love it. Our family loves coming here and yours will too. If you are a mountain biker this a great place to launch great trips through some of the most scenic and challenging trails in the country, all found in the Bentonville/Bella Vista area . There are world-class mountain biking, trail running and hiking trails in the Ozark Mountains. Bella Vista's trails meander through deep woods, featuring waterfalls, bluffs and creeks; they were built by nationally known trail builders to offer a top-notch experience on two wheels or on foot. Trails are free and open to the public, and connect to the NWA Regional Razorback Greenway. The home is located close to the Back 40 Trailhead. There is room to keep your bikes safely stored in the garage and you can relax in a beautiful place when you are not on the trails. In addition, there are six golf courses in close proximity, all in tree-filled, restful settings.
What makes this property unique
Bentonville/Bella Vista area is a Mountain Bike Mecca! Hundreds of miles of trails are nearby - some mere minutes away. In addition, nearby Bentonville is Walmartville! Sam Walton started his worldwide corporation right here; with history and nostalgia pleasantly combined, there's much to see and do. Excellent restaurants, charming downtown, and mountain bike trails everywhere; we simply add the quiet location and a private lake by which to relax at day's end. Paradise Found! Newly Remodeled Home. Great Location on peaceful Lake Rayburn, and so close to miles of mountain biking trails. Fishing Encouraged.
