Steps away from the river to the private dock for fishing, or to have your guide pick you up. Walt is always responsive, good communication. The cabin has always been spotlessly clean.

This was a great find for a short little vacation on the lake. From the moment of booking on VRBO,…read morethe owners were in contact with all the details needed for check in and a great stay. The resort is remote about 18 miles out of Mountain Home, but that is a charm as there is very little light or noise pollution in the area. There are 6 cottages of varying sizes to accommodate your needs. I stayed in Cottage #2 which has a spectacular view of Bull Shoals Lake from the porch as seen in the pictures. The cottage is one bedroom and very cozy. A fully funding functioning kitchen is useful for a long stay if you don't want to go beck into town for meals. The sitting area is in front of a large picture window with the same great view. A small dining table with chairs sits in one corner and the queen size bed in another. The bathroom is quite small with a color scheme from the 70s, but that is not an issue since you won't (hopefully) be spending a lot of time in there. The ceiling fan is extremely noisy, but that was turned off with the click of a switch. The owners are extremely outgoing and friendly! I was met at the car when I arrived and given a quick rundown of the place before settling in. Even though it rained for a lot of my trip, I thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet and beauty of the surroundings. I highly recommend the resort for even a day or two of relaxation, but it is also a good place for an extended stay for some quiet rest!

The first thing we noticed upon our arrival was the change in cleanliness at the resort.... keep in mind it was never bad, it just keeps getting better! Patty and Charlie are the nicest people you'll meet and willing to lend a helping hand to get you settled in. They are very welcoming and you can tell they are putting their heart and soul into the resort! We always come because the lake is clear, the water is clean, and it's a great area for fishing and wake boarding. In the mornings the water is super calm and it never gets overly crowded. The resort has a pool and great views if you are looking for a relaxing vacation, and I know you can rent boats around at some of the docks. There are brand new grills, nice decks, and the beds are comfortable with new linens. We always visit this resort and are very excited to see it in such great hands!!

My husband and I booked a trip here just for an easy getaway. While we only stayed one night of…read morethe three night reservation, that was wholly based on the fact that the pool was out of order and one of the top two reasons for the selection of places to stay. The office staff was super understanding and gave us a full refund for the remainder of our stay. They had an awesome bar and, in the next building over, a nice recreational area with a pool table, fireplace and several other game options. We did misunderstand that the bar had some limited food options. All in all we decided the wording on their website was just as little confusing regarding the food options and about boat rentals (as opposed to guided fish trips). But if we had not been wanting the pool option on this trip, this was a really nice place and we would definitely consider returning!

You won't find me in urban environments frequently and I spent time growing up in the country fishing & hunting. *IF you're a "City Person", this probably isn't the spot for you. There are three larger campgrounds that run adjacent to the river: one North of the bridge and two to the south of the bridge. If you're a tent camper, there's plenty of treeline to stay mostly shaded. If you've got a camper, there are several electrical/water hookups (you need to call in advance to book). And if you're more of a cabin person, they've got 3 sleeper cabins with heat & A/C that sleep several and a big cabin that has it's own kitchen & bathroom to go along with the Heat & A/C (once again, I highly advise booking well in advance). They offer a few different options for river fun. The canoes, kayaks, tubes, and rafts all offer different experiences. The upper stretch of the river starts with a bus ride up to the put in and takes 5-7 hours to float back to camp depending on how motivated you are. Make sure to check out the springs. The lower stretch starts at camp, takes 4-5 hours, and ends at Dawt Mill where they pick you up and bring you back to camp. Either way, make sure to bring a bunch of water, sunscreen, and a camping attitude. Just remember that the Pettit's clan is amazing and will work with you as best they can, but this is camping, not the spa at Hilton.
