    This was a fantastic find. Well stocked kitchen for nice meals. The bedding and linens were wonderful. Nice and secluded. We loved the short trails around the house. It has been really raining here so there stream at the end of one of the trails was moving. It was beautiful. Perfect for our anniversary weekend.

    One of the best VRBO places we have ever stayed. We went there to celebrate our anniversary, so comfort and relaxation was one of the biggest things we were looking for. The reclining furniture in the living room is great for relaxing and watching TV, the kitchen had everything we needed to make meals, complete with wine glasses, we enjoyed a fire around the fire pit each night, and the cabin is close enough to lots of fun adventures. It rained one night while we were there which created a beautiful flowing stream and waterfall at the creek on the property, the hike to the bluff was a gorgeous view, we hiked at Lost valley which is only about 30 minutes away and saw several beautiful waterfalls there, and the Rockin' Z Ranch was such a fun place riding horses on trail rides that we actually went there twice and got to see another waterfall there because of the rain. We only used the master bedroom but the bed was very comfortable, we loved having the big screen TV up there with Roku, But the best thing was having a balcony right off our bedroom with beautiful views in the morning as we sat in the rocking chairs with a cup of coffee. The rocking chair on the front porch was also a nice place to sit in the evening, and the propane grill was great as we were able to grill steaks. The owners thought of everything for convenience... Throw blankets on the couch, lanterns to see your way to the fire pit, plenty of firewood, walking sticks, and even wonderful books to read. LOVED!!!

    Very cozy and spacious cabin! Loved how secluded the property was and really enjoyed the small trails on the property. Was great for introducing young kids to hiking, while staying close to the cabin. The kitchen was well stocked and made it easy for us to plan meals and enjoy time together, instead of driving out of the way to go to a restaurant.

    Perfectly sized, cabin for our family of 7. Features we enjoyed were the lit back deck, top deck, grill, fire pit. Kitchen was well stocked. Remote location with little cell coverage and slow Internet access. (But isn't that kinda the point for a cabins like this?)

    The central location worked great for us and our traveling family members. The cabin is nice and updated. It is very remote and guests should be prepared for that and the rural road conditions. WiFi is a bit sketchy at times but we managed. If you’re looking for a remote beautiful location to get away from it all that also accommodates a large group, this VRBO is for you. We had a great time.

    We escaped a big city with two teenage daughters to unplug and adventure over spring break, and Baca Cabin was a wonderful home base for exploring beautiful, rural Northwest AR. We are avid hikers, and the cabin’s location allowed us to take some breathtaking and iconic AR hikes like Hemmed in Hollow, Whitaker Point, and the otherworldly Lost Valley Trail. We also drove an hour to Eureka Springs where we watched a parade and shopped in the lovely downtown. Don’t be deterred by the drive time to anywhere from Baca Cabin because the scenery and culture on any journey make it go by in a blink. The cabin itself sits on a property that offers lovely outdoor space! We set up a high power telescope on the expansive deck and saw stars with a glass of wine in the evenings. The kids played in the creek in the day and roasted s’mores every night. Our hosts even provided marshmallow roasting spears! The interior of the cabin was as described and exceptionally clean. The hosts provided basic linens, coffee pods, sweet and low, salt, pepper, and vegetable oil along with cutlery, dishes, pots and pans, and utensils. The washer and dryer came in very handy after muddy hiking treks. Things to help plan:: 1. There is internet service, but it was spotty on our personal devices, as it is in the whole area. 2. The nearest grocery store is about a 25 min drive so bringing what you need. Wonderful stay! Thanks, Chris!

    I’ve stayed in many VRBO properties, but I don’t think I’ve stayed in one more thought out or well done. Everything possible is thought of here and the property manager was fantastic to work with. The property is off the beaten path and you may need a four wheel drive at certain times, but the seclusion is worth those things. Highly, highly recommend.
