Like going to visit Granny, this adorable, well-appointed retreat sits in 3 private acres surrounded by woods.

Expansive front deck. 2 bedrooms, a loft & pullout sofa sleeps 8 total. 1 mile to Lake DeGray, 5 miles to Arkadelphia, 15 miles to Hot Springs. Cuddle up in this comfortable abode with central heat & air. Bring an ear of corn to put on the squirrel feeder in front, relax in 1 of the rockers on the big deck & enjoy watching the squirrels while they watch you! The bird feeders in front & in back provide additional entertainment. Also enjoy the sounds of the stream that runs in Spring, close to the front deck. The loft has its own small balcony with an overview of the whole backyard.

Highly recommend

This place is perfect! My husband came for a fishing trip so the kids and I tagged along. Very comfortable place. We were not far from hot springs. We enjoyed Mid-America Science museum, good food in hot springs. Then drove to Alpine campground they have a sandbar and playground plus bathrooms. There is a Dollar General near this house and gas station. We will definitely be back. Perfectly cozy, very clean, our hosts responded very promptly! Oh and there’s a tire swing and huge yard! Book this place!
