About this property

The Resting Place Cabin ~ Your Home away from Home

  • This Resting place, Cabin has 3 bedrooms, a large loft area 2 bathrooms, kitchen, and living room. The garage has a washer and dryer and we have full decks front and back to BBQ and sit around and enjoy the peace and beauty. Our fire-pit is perfect for night time family or friendship sharing.

    Great for family reunions! Time to get back in touch with life and loved ones!

    We are tucked away, just under 2 miles down a dirt road, yet only an hour from Branson, MO. famous for it's many great activities and shows. As well as one hour in the opposite direction to Fayetteville: Rogers & Bentonville is home to our famous Crystal Bridges Museum. And of course Eureka Springs is even closer and always a hit to visit.

    We are pretty centralized in location about an hour or less from shopping, nightlife, outdoor attraction and river enjoyment of all types. Canoe the Buffalo River. Enjoy scenic Jasper and Ponca, just 25 minutes away.

    We are located 2 miles off Hwy 21. Locally, we're just a couple miles from the Kings River, for hiking and fishing, and the Buffalo National River reception area is home to popular attractions like the Lost Valley Hiking Trail, the Boxley Valley Elk Herd, the Ponca Elk Education Center and the Upper Buffalo Mountain Biking Trails.

    Plenty to keep you busy in all directions. Or just enjoy the peace of being in the Ozarks with all our animals and us. We would love to have you stay at The Resting Place Cabin! Hope to see you soon!

The drive up to the cabin is beautiful with a long driveway. The front porch was perfect for day sitting especially in the morning. With the view this place offers coffee is a must on the porch. The cabin gives a 90’s nostalgia feel, which is not what I was expecting, but absolutely loved since it reminded me of my childhood home I grew up in with the pink sponged bathroom walls, old time knick knacks and the maroon towels (my mother loves maroon). None of this would matter or would have been a turn off to some, but to me it reminded me of my childhood- but with a wayyy better view! The peaceful atmosphere of this home and the property it sits on was exactly what I needed for a weekend getaway. I will rent from this home again.

We all loved staying at this cabin/home. It was very clean and conveniently setup for our group of 10 people including a couple of kiddos. The only small complaint was the beds were not the most comfortable for adults.

Relaxing and Refreshing!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Resting Place cabin. We found the house well-equipped, clean, and comfortable. An unexpected perk appreciated by our teens was the strong wifi connection! The grounds are beautiful and we (and our dog) loved how friendly the animals were! We found great hiking locations in the area and enjoyed getting off the beaten path. We would definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our week at the cabin. Having a four wheel drive definitely helps as it is tucked away down gravel roads but that adds to the charm. We came to Arkansas to look for our forever home and it was so nice to be able to bring our big dog with us everywhere we went. He loved the huge yard in the back and we enjoyed the cool nights we were able to sit by the camp fire and pet the friendly horses. 10/10 would recommend, and we would like to come back in the spring/summer/fall because I’m sure the view is even better when the trees are full after winter. Thank you for having us!! -Ronk Family

Cabin Space

We were a family of 7 & everyone had a bed & their own space plus the living room was perfect for the night it was too cold to sit out by a fire. We shared the favorite moments of our daily hikes. Master bedroom bed was very comfy (I prefer a firmer mattress), but the adults in the bunks had it a little tougher since although they are doubles, they are still bunks (fully disclosed & shown in pics). The cabin setting was beautiful & we enjoyed petting the horses. They are so friendly they even greeted us by the car on the way up to the cabin! Every thing you need is there, down to the dish soap to the beautiful quits in each room. The cabin was clean & plenty for f supplies to tidy up while staying was on hand. I wish could live here ❤️

Beautiful scenic getaway

The house is beautiful and sits on top of a hill overlooking pastures of friendly horses and a very charming donkey. So much stuff to do and fire wood was brought by daily to use in the fire pit out back. Very well stocked house. Such a peaceful getaway from normal life. Definitely would stay here again.

Beautiful home with amazing views

We loved our stay very much. Everything was easy to access and pull right up to. The cabin was very very clean and well kept. Only thing I could say that it does have a lot of extra items nicknacks in the cabin that could probably not be in there, but it definitely doesnt affect your stay. Even had things in the food pantry like salt pepper sugar which makes it nice when you forget items like I did to help you out in a pinch even had plenty of linens. The farm the house was on was super nice and very well kept as well. Just overall you can tell they love their place and it showed. I would definitely stay there again!

Mountain Retreat

We have a family of four, two teenage boys. We had plenty to do, but the cabin was large enough to spread out and chill also. We cooked the majority of our meals and the kitchen had everything we needed. The grill worked great for steaks, as the kids played basketball, volleyball and football. We hiked one day, and went into Eureka Springs for shopping the next. It was a great stay.

Nice, but was not as advertised.

We decided on this property because it listed so many things to do at the house. We were supposed to be able to play volley ball, badminton, basketball, etc. The equipment was so trashed it was completely unusable. Holes in the rackets, balls completely misshapen and shredded. Not to mention the basketball hoop was in the grass. We had several children with us so we picked this house so they would have plenty to do, so that kind of ruined our time. The beds were also very uncomfortable. All in all in was a beautiful setting, the house was clean and very well appointed besides the outdoor rec. It was also an easy check in/ check out process and we only saw one other person in the area that was probably the care taker. So it was nice and private.
