The Lily Pad, headwaters of Eden Falls
Enjoy this cozy cabin nestled in the heart of the Ozarks on a 100-acre farm and 3 acre fishing pond. Lily Pad is centrally located for all your upper Buffalo River activities. All the perks of a national park can be sought along with the joys of living on a farm. Watch granny milk each morning and enjoy the butter, eggs, and meat grown right here. This cabin comes with a yard of your own, a fire pit (firewood 5$ an armload), an ice maker, a smart tv with free Wi-Fi, a charcoal grill, and modern plumbing to make this little cabin your home away from home. Directions- Take Firetower road off of highway 43. Go exactly 3.5 miles and turn left on Crossroads road. Pass Crossroads church and stay straight, (do not take Stoverville to the left directly after the church, it takes you to Ponca the back way, down the mountain). Bring your fishing pole for the pond and do not forget to ask about farm raised products including beef, butter, eggs, and more! We do have Pyrenees dogs who watch over the farm, they are harmless and part of the landscape.

The Lily Pad was perfect for a mom and sons getaway! The cabin was cozy and perfect - we had everything we needed and the setting was amazing! We saw elk every day, and my boys loved fishing in the pond and exploring. It's close to Ponca and some great hiking!
We have stayed at the Lily Pad in the past, and absolutely love the property. The hosts are awesome and the ambience of the property is most definitely worth the visit!
The cabin and location were great! It was right in the area of all the hikes I wanted to do. Host is a little hard to get a hold of, or for me at least. Overall, great experience!
Everything about this property met my expectations. Seclusion, peace, wild life, fishing, and the people we interacted with were all friendly. Would definitely visit again!
The Lily Pad was an excellent get away and base camp for all of our hiking adventures in AR for the weekend!!! Such a cozy and welcoming cabin The dogs were so sweet. Would definitely stay here again!
It was great! Connie the farm owner was very helpful and kind. She made sure that all our needs were made. The host was easily accessible too. Highly recommend going there.
A nice place to just relax and enjoy nature. Great view of the Lilly pond from the front porch, very secluded place. Will be a great base for experiencing the Buffalo River, hiking,kayaking and canoeing.The owner is very kind and accommodating a great source for finding places of interest in the area. I would definitely go back to this cabin again.
My husband and I really needed to get away and relax. Everything was perfect for us. The view was beautiful and loved the nightly check from the dogs. I'm already ready to go back.
Once we got ahold of the property owner, which was difficult, they came down to apologize and gave us some of the rich history about the property. Adorable cabin, quiet & relaxing!!! Communication aside, I’d go back & recommend!
Small cabin just right for 2 people. Very secluded and quiet but access to activities around the Buffalo River. Enjoyed sitting on front porch and fishing in the pond. Owner is very kind and dogs are sweet
My husband and I enjoyed our stay. Connie was so very nice and very kind with letting us roam her land! The cabin was just perfect for the two of us. We enjoyed the peacefulness and quiet of the farm! Leo and Pearl were super sweet! (Connie’s Pyrenees)
Good place to sit and unwind all day, or, to rest by the fire after a day of activites. Kitchen had eveythin we needed. And comfotable beds. Good view. Quiet, except for the sounfs of nature. Highly recomended
Traveling down the long drive to the cabin you'll see cows, hillsides, a small church and cemetery, and probably two Great Pyrenees. The pond is right out the front door. The cabin is cozy, but everything you need is outside- a firepit, a grill and a clean picnic table. There's good wi-fi and hot water for a great shower (although the shower itself is very small). The host is very responsive and helpful. I highly recommend this cabin for a remote getaway.
Our stay was so pleasant and the property was beautiful! We enjoyed all the amenities of the Lily Pad such as the lake and the mountaintop view, and there was a lot to do nearby. BOC has a great website with lots of info. It was very helpful to have a stovetop and oven, as many cabins do not! There was no cell service, but the Wi-Fi worked well for everyday use. Connie was very nice to offer us farm-fresh eggs and beef from the livestock. The dogs on the property, Pearl and Leo, were so sweet with guests and visited us every morning. Overall, we had a great time and would love to come back and stay here again!
We LOVED our stay here! The owners are so very precious and went completely out of their way to make our stay with our little ones comfortable and fun! It was like saying with family. The cabin was EXTREMELY clean, well kept, and conveniently located right next to a pond, we felt safe because the family dog works at night. It IS way out in the boondocks, so be prepared for a drive. Plug address into GPS awhile you have service. But you can always stop and ask a local. Friendly Arkansas folks. Love the ladies at the Lily Pad. They’re wonderful. Go stay here!!! Great price and the BEST service. You can even buy some of their beef they raise!

Quaint and cozy with everything you need at this little cabin. Host was so kind and helpful. Bed and bedding very comfortable. Nicer than the pictures. There is a bed where the sofa is pictured in the listing so you don’t have to sleep in the loft. Good proximity to popular hiking areas. Definitely recommend this property. You’ll especially appreciate the quiet, rural setting if needing a getaway from the city!
We enjoyed our Christmas stay at the Lily Pad. The pond was frozen over and there was still snow on the ground when we arrived and it made for pretty view. The dogs were super friendly. It was just a short drive down the mountain to Boxley Valley to see the elk. The cabin was cozy and warm even with the crazy below average temperatures. I would highly recommend the Lily Pad.
