About the host
Hosted by Jenni Coan
We moved here from the Chicago area for the opportunity for Jared to use his construction/property maintenance background to be self-employed. About a year later, Jenni had their daughter now runs the resort and raises the kids! In addition to the resort maintenance, Jared owns Twin Lakes Home Inspections and UC Construction and is a volunteer firefighter. Jenni volunteers with Norfork Lake Tourism, the Fireworks Association, and the PTO.
Why they chose this property
Jared vacationed on Lake Norfork as a kid and it was his parent's dream when they were about his age to own a resort around here. After a few months of looking, we found the Mountain Home, AR community, and primarily the resort community in Gamaliel to be the right fit for Jenni to be interested in moving and resort ownership. Walking out of cabin 1, the breathtaking lake view, lush landscaping, and accessible wildlife was enough to convince Jenni this was worth moving South for. It has been well worth it!
What makes this property unique
This resort in particular has a lengthy history - a photo hangs in the office of the main building from 1955, when there were merely ferries to take travelers across the lake in to Mountain HOme, AR. Now, there are (2) bridges, which has changed the vacation experience, but not integrity of our quaint resort. The cabins have been renovated, but there is a lot of nostalgia on property still. Our place is conveniently located but offers a lot of privacy, peace, and serenity, with enough to do to keep the kids entertained and plenty of space for outdoor play.
