About this property

The Cabin at Skinny Dip Cove Lake Greeson, Arkansas

We welcome you to our home away from home, this beautiful home was built in 2015 for our family to enjoy for generations to come. We have decided to share this wonderful treasure with some great people so they to, will be able to make memories that will last a lifetime. This home is located just 75 yards from beautiful Lake Greeson which is nestled in the foothills of the Quachita Mountains and 2 minutes from Self Creek Boat Ramp. You can walk or drive the short distance to the waters edge from the end of the driveway to enjoy everything Lake Greeson has to offer, whether it be a day of swimming, floating, fishing, kayaking or tie the boat up and walk up to the house for a snack and a little rest after a full day on the lake of water sports. The home is tucked in woods very close to the lake, very quite and peaceful location

The home is 1500 sq ft 3 bedroom, 2 baths with a 16 x 24 covered screened in porch with plenty of seating for those great times spent listening to all the sounds of the outdoors, there is a covered cooking area on the back with a stainless Holland gas grill for any grilling needs. There is also a 14x30 covered carport that can be used to park your boat or vehicles under (if owners boat is not under it at the time) There is plenty of parking , you are not jammed right next to a neighbor with very little parking or yard space like a lot of homes on this lake are, very private location, the home sits on a 1 acre lots with tons of trees, very shaded and joins the Corp of Engineers boundary line around Lake Greeson, no homes will be built between us and the lake, we are located at the end of the street so hardly any traffic which is great for the kids to play and have fun.

Wonderful place to stay

We planned a trip where we could visit a few different places and this was wonderfully close to all the places we wanted to explore. We were able to rent a side by side nearby and explore the lakefront, though we quickly realized we were not experienced enough to manage the Difficult trail. The lake is just a short walk from the house and there is a perfect little beach area where we swam and skipped rocks. We ventured to Hot Springs and Murfreesboro and all the little towns in between. The house had everything we needed and wanted during our stay.

Pictures can be deceiving.

Not on the lake, near a lake. Cold concrete floor that may not be warm by August. Located on a nasty street with broken down trailers.The house is crammed with personal photos of them 20 years ago. I mean every single table, or shelf , even the fridge has them. Remote all had dead batteries and the grill was filthy the ventless fire place needed to be vented!! Would not recommend under any circumstances.vented, could not

Lots to do in the area, if you like hiking, ATVs, Fishing, Rafting, boating, and beautiful scenery! And this cabin was an awesome place to stay during our adventures! Eagle Rock Loop is less than 30min away for those that want a challenging 26.6 mile hike.. if not lots of beautiful short hikes in area.

Great place for families

My family stayed here because the location was right on the path of totality of the eclispe. The outdoor fire pit was a big hit. We loved the screened patio. We were within an hour drive to all the attractions we wanted to see. The views of the lake, just a short walk away, were spectacular. Saw several eagles. My grandsons saw their first fireflies!

Home away from home

This property exceeded all of our expectations and we have high ones when we travel. I was unsure if we’d be able to use the screened in porch during summer in Arkansas but the house has so much shade, we loved it. Excellent location, comfortable beds, well stocked and the owner was very responsive to all of our needs. We can’t wait to go back.

LOVED IT

We loved our stay!! This is a beautiful home and very nice place to stay! It is so convenient to get to the lake. We fished and swam and enjoyed the fire pit ( very short time as it was very hot outside we just needed it for snores 😅) the fans on the screened patio is excellent to keep you cool as you enjoy sitting outside! They stock their house with good utensils and pots and pans, cups and plates and really anything you could think of to cook with in your own home! WE WILL BE BACK AGAIN!

About the host

Hosted by Greg Mckay

Host profile image
We live in Arkansas, we love everything outdoors and sharing our cabin on the lake with others who love it also

Why they chose this property

The cabin is located on a tree covered 1 acre lot, when we were looking for a place to build on the lake, we saw this spot and fell in love with its location. It is on a dead end street in a very quite neighborhood. Plenty of room for the kids to play outside and not have to worry about them

What makes this property unique

Location! It joins the Corp property around the lake, it is the closest you can get to the lake without spending a million plus dollars. This location compared to others close to us is in its own league, most properties on Greeson that are rentals are either up on the busy highway with traffic noise all night or crammed next to each other with very little privacy or parking space
