The cabin is set in a beautiful meadow and close to Salida. All good there. Unfortunately, the cabin has a water pump situated underneath it which emits a low, pulsating hum. The noise disturbed our sleep for 3 nights and the landlord response was late and the lack of our sleep was treated with no real concern. There was no shower soap. Delivered later in the day. We had to cut our vacation short by one day due to our exhaustion, and on check out we did as asked: take out the trash, strip the bed, start a load of laundry. No laundry soap. Sent a request for one night's stay, was promised a check in the mail. No check after two weeks.

Absolutely Beautiful
We had a great stay. The location is beautiful and the cabin is very well stocked with kitchen/cooking utensils and extra bedding/blankets. The hot tub worked well and was very clean. Also, the wifi works great. The property is centrally located and makes a great place to basecamp your Arkansas Headwaters adventures.

Lovely location but best for a couple
The location and property grounds were fantastic and the guest house charming, but the accommodation's description was misleading in regard to the bedroom locations (bedroom number two is not similar to bedroom number one but is in fact twin beds in the loft). Property is in need of maintenance and cleaning.

An adorable guest house away from town for a quiet stay. The host was responsive even though she was away during our stay. We had a little confusion about the WiFi login, but it was resolved quickly. The host also recommended Dvorak Expeditions for the rafting trip we wanted to schedule. We had a great time doing that, so thank you!

The perfect spot.
The guest house is comfortable and cozy. We love the eclectic vibe and beautiful setting! The well appointed kitchen made meal prep easy. And, we especially enjoyed stargazing from the hot tub and fire pit. We’d love to stay there again!

So close to Salida, but you feel miles away. The pond and river and surroundings are very peaceful. The house is very comfortable and the bookshelf has a wonderful mix of books. We also enjoyed the hot tub.

This is an adorable guest house on a ranch property. The house was comfortable and clean. While we didn't have an opportunity to take advantage of all the fun activies on the property because of our schedule, they all looked amazing. Also, very nice owners!
