About this property

Rustic, close to buffalo river, secluded getaway, king bed, hiking ,WIFI

The Original at Heather Hill Cabins is nestled in the woods on 20 acres where wildlife abounds. You can enjoy a private, secluded vacation just 2 miles from the Buffalo River. If you're an avid hiker, there are hundreds of hiking trails to choose from in Newton County. The famed Pruitt's landing with a great swimming hole on the Buffalo National River is only 2 miles away. If you prefer just a quiet day at the cabin, relax with friends and family at a campfire or hang out on the front porch. Please note that we are located on a gravel road a half mile off of Hwy 7. Once you arrive at Heather Hill Cabins, the driveway is gravel (9% grade). Gravel can be bumpy at times however 4 wheel drive is not necessary.

Welcome to the charming and rustic Original cabin. This cabin is the perfect spot to relax after a full day of exploring the Arkansas Ozarks. This cabin is perfect for those who have an appreciation of rustic, with the stone gas fireplace, wagon wheel chandelier, and wood beams.

* Downstairs - includes the living room, kitchen, and full-size bathroom.

Relax in the living room, a perfect place to converse with friends and family or watch your favorite movies/tv shows on the Roku TV. There is a sleeper sofa and 2 rocker/recliners, as well as a native stone gas fireplace to cozy up to in the winter months. The living room has 2 ceiling fans.

The kitchen is fully equipped, featuring full-size appliances and all the cookware to make your favorite meals including a crockpot, blender, hand mixer, toaster, microwave, drip coffee maker, and all the utensils and cookware you could possibly need. The kitchen table seats 6.

Off the kitchen, is a full-size bathroom with a stand-up shower.

* Upstairs - The upstairs loft features a king bed, a futon, and a twin bed in a corner nook, all with cotton linens for you to get a great night's sleep. A half bath is also upstairs.

* The outdoor space includes a front porch with a charcoal grill, porch swing, and a bistro table and chairs, perfect for your morning coffee and quiet solitude with nature. Enjoy the fire ring in the backyard for those evening campfires to make those family memories, roasting hotdogs and savory S'mores. Also, be sure to view the wildlife on the property.

*The cabin is secluded on 20 acres and has 3 other sister cabins within walking distance - " The Hilltopper-sleeps 8, "The Retreat" - sleeps 12, and our newest "The Majestic" -sleeps 8.

*LOCATION
We are just 2 miles from the Buffalo National River, 7 miles from historic downtown Jasper, and 20 minutes from Harrison. We are within an hour's drive from Branson and Eureka Springs for those wanting to explore some other areas. Our cabins are best known for their close proximity to the Buffalo National River for floating, the many scenic hiking trails in Newton County, waterfalls during the wetter season, and the Elk herd in Ponca, all within a short drive.

The Original

The cabin is well represented in its listing. We enjoyed our stay immensely, including our pup. As we walked in, we each commented on the homey feeling. The amenities were well represented and the kitchen was not lacking for needed tools or place settings. We were able to enjoy some local food establishments. (Thank you for the binder of local recommendations!) We found the location to be centrally located for our hiking adventures as well. We can’t wait to return and hopefully have a few campfires with s’mores!

About the host

Hosted by Clint Barr

Host profile image
HI I'm Clint Barr and let me introduce you to Heather Hill Cabins. My wife and I bought Heather hill in 2017 and just completed building 2 new cabins. The Hilltopper and The Majestic. We have fallen in love with the Newton County area of Arkansas and float the Buffalo River every chance we get. I do this full time and have several rentals. This is not a property managed home and I'm very attentive to your questions

What makes this property unique

Great for groups or family reunions as we can now handle 33 guests between the 4 cabins. They are spread out enough to have your own personal space but close enough to get together with the extended family.
