Family fun and relaxation at the Trumpeter

We love the casual luxury and coziness of the trumpeter lodge. The beds are super comfy and the screened porch make even rainy days a joy while watching the river roll by. The fish weren't biting, but all the other wildlife kept us entertained for a perfect family weekend.

Amazing Cabin!

This property is amazing. From the cedar log cabin to the riverfront property it sits on, this place is always a go-to spot for us to stay at! This place truly allows you to escape to a quiet spot on the river and just relax.

Peaceful river view

Even in July the temperature in the area never go so hot that you could not enjoy relaxing on the back porch watching the river flow by. Cabin was excellent and the stay was relaxing.

Enjoyable weekend

House was immaculate! Family was very impressed with details. Beds extremely comfortable. The only drawback was the fish did not cooperate but you can't control everything! Would do again.

Caught the big one!

Relaxing and a great time with family. Our granddaughter, a nursing student at UAMS caught lots of fish and a “ 22 inch German Brown” trout. Was so excited, and still is. Looking forward to our next trip to Trumpeter Lodge. Also enjoyed the daily visit of deer in our front yard.

Total solar eclipse.

Had a great trip and stay to see the total solar eclipse from the wonderful back terrace with natural flagstone and a fire pit. We had a bit of unexpected plumbing problem, but the manager and owner responded immediately for a quick fix. The couches and beds were comfortable, kitchen was well stocked, wonderful big dining table. The house decor is like a very nice lodge. Outside, we enjoyed the terrace and views of the Little Red River and from the floating dock. Neighborhood along the river was quiet and peaceful. The eclipse was amazing. All of us, wife, daughter, and son-in-law had a great trip. Owner and property manager were very responsive and considerate.

Trumpeter Lodge has a GRAND VIEW and full of NATURAL BEAUTY

We loved our stay at Trumpeter Lodge. The place is fabulous and beautifully designed(it has all the modern comforts). The view of the Little Red River and all the nature surrounding it is stunning. We fished off the dock in the morning and enjoyed watching kayakers and boaters on the river throughout the day. We utilzed the fire ring area nightly( make sure to bring some wood like we did) and used the outside charcoal grill a couple of evenings. We made such great burgers one night we decided to call them the "Trumpeter Burgers". Again, this place is full of nature and super comfortable.

Great Experience for Our Friendsgiving

Accommodations were spotless! Kitchen was well organized and well equipped with all you would need. We did bring our crockpot, however. Extras of everything already there: detergent, trash bags, and toilet paper. Beds and bedding were very comfortable. Enjoyed beautiful views from both front and back porches. Great neighborhood for walking and quick access to town. Water was low when we were there so fishing was not the best, but we had a great stay nonetheless!

Perfect Getaway

Outstanding property and location ensured a fun and relaxing vacation for my family. Our children were able to catch fish off of the dock and enjoy the river. Quiet location was perfect to simply get away from the hustle of our busy lives. All amenities were available and the property was very well maintained and functional with modern appliances and conveniences. Exceeded our expectations.

Fantastic holiday - Superb cabin

We stayed at the cabin with our friends for 2 nights. We were a group of 4 adult with a 7 month old and a 3 year old. The cabin was excellent. Very clean and updated. Kitchen and bathrooms are especially great. It was well stocked with everything you may need and more.The little red river is right in the backyard. We enjoyed spending time at the firepit and the dock. There is a screened in porch, where we spent time after dark. Few suggestions- 1. The pictures are highly underrated. The cabin is much more beautiful and updated. Also, we did not find pictures of bathroom anywhere and were a bit apprehensive. Both the bathrooms are excellent and updated. Please put pictures. 2. There is a small tear in screened in porch. The insects were getting in from there when we were sitting there, needs repair. Overall, the trip was amazing, the cabin was really great, the river with its mist was stunning. We would definitely recommend this property and we could back if possible.. Jan the property manager was very responsive and always available when we had questions.

Spring Break

The cabin was really nice and updated. Really enjoyed the fire pit and overall view from the backyard to the river. Fishing was not good but that was due to high water conditions. Definitely a place to take your family for a nice vacation or weekend get away.
