An Ozark Mountain Cabin on the Little Buffalo River
This unique home can accommodate up to 11 guests yet is cozy enough for a couple. My Blue Heaven is full of rustic charm but never at the expense of creature comforts including central heat and air conditioning, fully appointed modern kitchen, telephone, satellite TV, DVD, and CD players, hot tub, and deck and even a play house for the kids hidden among the trees. See the amenities page for more detail.
In addition to our main cabin, our nearby cozy guesthouse (right), just 100 yards away, can sleep up to four additional guests.
Our three bedroom, two bath 2000 square foot log cabin is situated on a 125 acre private wildlife refuge with ¾ mile of frontage on the Little Buffalo River, the largest tributary of the nearby Buffalo National River in the heart of the Ozark Mountains. Located only 3 miles from Parthenon in beautiful Newton County, Arkansas, our cabin is secluded and private yet easily accessible and within easy driving distance of Jasper, Ponca, Harrison, Branson and Eureka Springs. Spectacular 180 degree views of virtually uninhabited Reynolds Mountain combine with the quiet solitude of the river to create a special place for that romantic getaway or family reunion.
For over 30 years, this land and that of several adjoining neighbors has been maintained as a wildlife refuge. White-tailed deer are abundant and can be observed daily in the 15 acre deer meadow just outside the great room windows or from the deck or hot tub. A short walk to the river will reveal herons, kingfishers, beaver and more, and, because this section of the river has year-round flow, the beautiful swimming hole (left) is full of smallmouth bass, crayfish, rock bass and sunfish. See our wildlife page for more information.
In the meadow and along the river banks, wildflowers can be found for much of the year, along with their attendant butterflies and other insects. This creates a habitat well suited to nature photographers, wildflower enthusiasts or anyone who appreciates being outdoors.
So please browse our site, call or email with any questions you might have, and arrange to come for a stay. Leave your worries behind as you watch the deer play, catch a brownie in the river or enjoy a moonlight soak in the hot tub. When you experience the azure Ozark skies in the evening, the misty blue mountains in the morning and the milky turquoise of the river any time of day, this hideaway will quickly become your Blue Heaven.
