About this property

Historic Early Settler Farm House that Has Been Modernized For Your Comfort.

Our Rock House was the first house built on our farm located north of Dover, AR. The house was built in the early 20th century and my Great Grandfather lived in the house. One of the unique features of the house is that its walls are solid rock. We have taken great strides in modernizing the house to make it a unique, but comfortable experience. The house is located in the middle of 200 acres ready to explore. Home is updated and has 2 bedrooms and a roll away bed in the back porch that is enclosed and heated.

Canoeing. The property is 5-miles from Big Piney Creek and Rushing Road bridge. Big Piney Creek is a major canoeing destination in Arkansas. Moore Outdoors is a popular canoe rental for the Big Piney. Google Moore Outdoors to find their website. Property is also approximately 1 hour drive to Buffalo River.

ATV Trail Riding. Approximately 15 miles north on Scenic Hwy 7 is the Mocassin Gap ATV Trail. Trails are well marked and easy to find. There are several waterfalls and pretty creek crossing. Brock Creek ATV trail is approximately 30-miles away. Brock Creek would be more advanced trails and the markings are not quite as good.

Fishing. Lots of fishing options available in the area. There are stocked ponds available on the property that are available to fish. In addition, fishing the Big Piney Creek is very popular (twin bridges to Rushing Road leg of creek can be relaxing fishing/canoe ride). Lastly, Lake Dardanelle State Park, which is nationally known for its excellent bass fishing is a 12-mile drive from Dover, AR.

Motorcycles: Perfect launching point for motorcycle riders wanting to explore the Ozark Mountains. Nice launching point to the following destinations: Jasper, AR, Hot Sprints, Mount Nebo, Mount Magazine.

Swimming: The best swimming hole in Arkansas is located at Long Pool that has large rocks to jump off (anywhere between 8 to 12 foot drop) that kids absolutely go bonkers over. Long Pool State Park has $3 for parking and you need exact cash as it is self service. Bring a flotation device as you need to swim creek to get over to the rocks.

Hiking: Close to the following hiking trails: Pedestal Rock (hike below bluff line to see all the caves), Glory Hole (waterfall flowing into cave), Alum Cove Natural Bridge (caves), Long Pool State Park (waterfalls), Whitaker Point (best site for picture in Arkansas to memorialize your trip).

Closest Town: Dover, AR is approximately 5-miles away. Access to grocery store and restaurants available in Dover.

The Rock House

This was an older, well kept house. It was very clean. Robert and Lawanda were wonderful people. We really enjoyed meeting them and seeing the farm. I loved the porch swing and the view!

Riding trip

Rock house was a very nice play for my wife and son and i to spend a few days. House was very clean and well kept. It sits on a gorgeous family farm that is all around you. The owners live within eyesight and where there checking to make sure everything was perfect as soon ss we got yhere. If i had one small complaint it would be the mattress in the master bedroom was hard as a brick.

Precious Farm House

Our primary reason for our stay was atv-ing at Mack’s Pines which is located about 15 minutes away…house is located about 8 minutes from town…dollar store located right down the road! We found this house was great to come home and relax every evening. Hosts were very accommodating and pleasant to deal with…we will be back!

Clean and well kept!

It’s likely that we stay at this house again in the future. It was clean and well kept. No noise pollution as there wasn’t much traffic. The A/C worked well which is a huge plus!

Dover Stone House

We had a lovely time at the Stone House! Very clean, attentive but not overly attentive hosts, everything we needed was available. Our only issue was that the property is at a very busy intersection that has a stop sign from One direction, a yield sign from another and a third street that flies on through - made it a challenge to park the dually 1-Ton truck with boat behind it in the parking that is in front of the property, between the house and the intersection. Other than that, wonderful!!

Wonderful house in a great setting

We stayed 3 nights and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it! Well maintained house in a very peaceful setting. About 10-15 minutes outside of Russellville - close enough for convenience, far enough away for peace and quiet.

Beautiful property

Absolutely gorgeous property, and the house is very cozy, felt like home away from home. My partner and I spent most of our time just sitting on the front porch swing and enjoying the view. The back pond is incredibly peaceful to sit by as well. A great place to unwind and reconnect.

We loved staying here! The property is on land which was beautiful and peaceful. The house was gorgeous and had everything we needed. The owners met us and talked with us about the history of the property which we appreciated, and they were very helpful and kind. Hopefully we can make our way back someday!

While this house was small it was comfortable and homey. It sat out in the country in front of a large freshly mowed field with a beautiful pond. We would stay there again.
