About this property

Ouachita Rose - Private Cabin with Hot Tub

-Peaceful, very secluded 1,050 sq ft cabin-one of four in our private resort that is located on the Ouachita River.  At the end of the road, no thru traffic, no visible neighbors.  -A soothing himalayan salt lamp lights to hot tub room that adjoins the cabin and creates a calming vibe.
A complimentary bottle of champagne, wine or sparkling cider is included.  Sitting on the Upper deck is like being up in a tree house.  -Roast marshmallows under a star-studded sky away from city lights.   -Pet Friendly-$25 per pet per night paid at resort.  -On site canoeing, kayaking, river tubing, swimming, fishing, hiking, horseshoes, volleyball, basketball, tether ball.  Near crystal mining, horseback riding, biking, hiking, ATV trails.  Shuttle service available. -We invite you to come out and unplug.  Our cabins have no phones, WiFi, or cable.   You have a TV with a DVD and tape player in your cabin and we have a library of VHS tapes and DVD's in our office for your use.   Also in our office is a cable TV and telephone with free long distance.  -You have entertaining games and puzzles in your cabin and additional choices available in our office. -Canoeing the Ouachita River at any time of the year offers visitors a chance to view towering rocky bluffs and riverbanks sprinkled with wild flowers while winding through the rugged and undeveloped National Forest.  The pleasant temperatures and brilliant seasonal color displays of fall and spring, the cooling and refreshing effect of moving water and shade trees during the heat of summer, make March to November the most popular times to enjoy this trip. The family-friendly river flows casually past massive rock bluffs shaded by tree-lined banks and slopes. -Free of commercial development, the Ouachita is a gentle river with occasional Class I-II rapids separated by flat-water pools.  Fishing is excellent, with an abundance of bass (mostly smallmouth, largemouth and spotted), bluegill, catfish, green and longear sunfish, walleye and any number of other species.    -Mother Nature blessed the Ouachita Mountains with the most beautiful quartz crystal in the world.  Mount Ida is known as the "Quartz Crystal Capital of the World".  We welcome all rock hounds, both amateur and professional.  -Womble Trail, Ouachita Trail,  and Lake Ouachita Vista Trail are nearby EPIC mountain biking and hiking trails.  There are other secluded, forest trails such as Fourche Mountain Trail, available for exploring on your ATVs.  Just a few feet away from your cabin are short trails into the National Forest.    -We are located near one of the darkest sky places in Arkansas and you can easily see the Milky  Way.  You will see fireflies in season and you might catch sight of an occasional Bald Eagle, Blue Heron or Road Runner.  We live on site in our home/office and are available  to assist you if you need help with anything from starting a fire to answering questions about where to go and what to see.  We have a very small store and try to stock the necessities including ice, river shoes and basic food supplies.  You are in the middle of the Ouachita National Forest.

Private cabin
The cabin was nice but outdated and not very clean. The campground area was beautiful and we found several good nearby places to get in the river and there are crystal mines in the area

Vacation get away
The property was just as described. Our cabin was surrounded by trees, very private. The river was low, had it been higher the kayak trip would have been better. Mother Nature has her plan. The trip helped us unwind and recharge. I’m truly impressed with the young owners, It’s a big property and they take great care. Demetrio & Nancy

Great place to enjoy the river!
Cabin was clean and inviting! The river area was great, lots of amenities for our use. (Canoes, kayaks and tubes). We had a great time floating the river. The cabin owners even came and found us on the river, to check on us after a short rain storm passed over! Awesom !

Just what I needed.
some of the furnishings are outdated but it didn't matter because it was just what I needed. The bed was the most comfortable thing ever, Hot tub was very nice, and the location was perfect. It was such a beautiful location. From the decks you had perfect views of God's beatiful work. The views at the river were just amazing. We loved our weekend getaway and will be looking to book there again.

Wonderful cabin stay
We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It was a quiet, regenerative stay. Amanda was very easy to get a hold of and answered our questions quickly. Loved the privacy and the hot tub and the fireplace. Dog friendly was a huge bonus!

The Ouachita Rose Cabin is perfect! Equipped with everything you need. The second floor deck is like being in a treehouse overlooking the forest. The new owners, Casey and Amanda, were beyond accommodating and a pleasure to work with. Will definitely go back next year!

Relaxation
Needed to get away from the busy world for a quiet anniversary weekend and this place did not disappoint. Short walk to the river was a perfect spot to set up our hammock. Limited cell service was a big plus but able to still reach the outside world with the WiFi. The cabin was the best one we’ve stayed at and we’ve stayed at a few in Arkansas. The hot tub sealed the deal. The cabin was at the end of a dead end road so we had zero traffic. The owners house was about 1/4 of a mile away so they were there if we needed anything. Will be staying here again!!

Ouachita River House
The house was exactly like the pictures. It was a very nice cabin. I will say that it was a little dusty, but other than that, it was clean. Also, if you are not able to do stairs, I wouldn't suggest this particular cabin, because the only bathroom was upstairs. The property was very nice, quiet, and peaceful. Mrs. Jan was very helpful in showing us some things to do around town. Be sure to check the weather before you go, because it rained a lot and we couldn't play at the river on the property, so you'll want to have a back up plan. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and would definitely go back.

Away from it all
The Rose cabin is secluded as promised! We had a lovely 6 night stay and enjoyed everything very much. Jan and her husband were welcoming and helpful. We were a tiny bit disappointed that you can’t see the river from the cabin, but it’s just a short walk away. Overall, a great stay and we would definitely go back.

Absolutely amazing!
Coming to Arkansas and staying in a cabin on a property we knew little about was kind of scary. But once we got there and met Jan, our worries went away! She was super nice and very helpful! On day 1, we just sort of walked around to get familiar with where things were and to think about what we wanted to do the next day. So first thing the next morning, we headed to the river!! We started off in Kayaks but I soon flipped over but no biggy. The staff was there to make sure I was ok and to get us a canoe instead. We spent most of the day on the river fishing, canoeing, and swimming. There was also a hot tub in the cabin: a HUGE plus. If you get a chance , you should stay here!! You won’t be disappointed. We’re already planning our next trip there.

Cozy Cabin in the Middle of Nowhere
Both the cabin and the property were beautiful. Jan is as friendly as they come and she was very helpful with both our cabin needs and helping us find activities in the area. My girlfriend and I stayed in the cabin at the end of the road, on the edge of the national forest. This is the perfect spot for an outdoorsy couple looking for a few days in the woods away from the world.

This cabin is the best one for privacy. Since there is no cable or satellite, so an updated TV/DVD/Stereo would be nice. Everything was comfy and clean. Having little to no cell service was actually very nice.

About the host

Hosted by Amanda Sullivan

Host profile image
Hi! Our names are Casey and Amanda Sullivan.
We were married in August 2020, and closed on this beautiful property in October 2020.
It was a whirlwind year to say the least!

We moved from Denver, Colorado to enjoy all that Arkansas has to offer (so many outdoor activities are in this area).

We have 2 children, and one on the way!

Why they chose this property

We love this property because it is so secluded and peaceful. Surrounded on 3 sides by National Forest and the Ouachita River on the other really sets it apart from anywhere else.
Our children (and ourselves) get to discover new and exciting plants and creatures we have never seen all the time, and go on fun river trips together.
