Quiet and Cozy

We loved our cabin. It was cozy and very clean with a beautiful view of the lake. Our hosts were remarkable and friendly. We will definitely be going back for a peaceful get away. The property was impressive and the boat dock was safe and secluded. Great for swimming and fishing. Thank you Jenni for answering our questions and being such a great host. The Wagon Wheel Resort comes highly recommended by us! Thanks again!!

Lake Cottage

We enjoyed our stay at this quaint cottage. We spent most of our time on the back screened in porch which had a great lake view. The bed was comfy! It was a short trip to town to eat or shop.

Great stay at Wagon Wheel Resort!

Really enjoyed our stay in this VERY clean, well equipped cabin. Had everything we needed including a nice Weber grill. Bed was comfy! The lake view is awesome and it was relaxing to sit outside or in the screened porch after a day of lake fun. Friendly, helpful owners who live on site. Close drive to marinas and Mountain home for supplies or restaurants. Highly recommend.

Beautiful property with nice owners!!

We needed a little place to stay while visiting family in the area & The Wagon Wheel Resort was perfect!! We had a perfect size cabin with everything we needed including a beautiful view of the lake!! It was cold while we were there so we're hoping to maybe visit again when the weather is warmer & we can enjoy the property more!!

About the host

Hosted by Jenni Coan

Host profile image
We are Jared and Jenni Coan. We moved from the Chicago area to put Jared's background in maintenance/construction to use and be self-employed, not long after getting married. We have since welcomed two children and have really involved ourselves in the community. Jared is a volunteer on the local fire department and is the owner of Twin Lakes Home Inspections and UC Construction. Jenni is involved with the Norfork Lake Chamber of Commerce and Lake Norfork Fireworks Association. With both of us being self-employed, raising 2 young children, volunteering within the community, and of course running the resort, we stay quite busy, but wouldn't have it any other way!

Why they chose this property

Jared vacationed on Lake Norfork as a kid and it was his parent's dream when they were about his age to own a resort around here. After a few months of looking, we found the Mountain Home, AR community, and primarily the resort community in Gamaliel to be the right fit for Jenni to be interested in moving and resort ownership. Walking out of cabin 1, the breathtaking lake view, lush landscaping, and accessible wildlife was enough to convince Jenni this was worth moving South for. It has been well worth it!

What makes this property unique

This resort in particular has a lengthy history - a photo hangs in the office of the main building from 1955, when there were merely ferries to take travelers across the lake in to Mountain HOme, AR. Now, there are (2) bridges, which has changed the vacation experience, but not integrity of our quaint resort. The cabins have been renovated, but there is a lot of nostalgia on property still. Our place is conveniently located but offers a lot of privacy, peace, and serenity, with enough to do to keep the kids entertained and plenty of space for outdoor play.
