    Great property. This was my 2nd stay here and I'll definitely be back again. Very secluded area of the river with beautiful views. We had a guys' weekend and we all had plenty of room and privacy, but this location would be great for 2-3 families as well. Great hosts with clear communication and timely response for any questions.

    Great place for multiple families. We had 11 men gather for trout fishing on white river. Plenty of beds bathrooms and very nice kitchen. Also plenty of seating for eating or visitin. Great location for everything. Very private, but also close to town. Highly recommend this place for anyone. Host was very responsive and helpful. We will definitely be back.

    A little out of the way, but within a few minutes of our arrival we understood that it would all be worth it. Our family ranged in ages between 4rs to 77 years and all thought it had been a wonderful choice.

    Our stay was so good! We love this property and are already planning our 3rd visit! The house is perfect! We love everything about it! Sandy is amazing and is just a phone call away if you need anything. The river was too high for wade fishing outback this time, but our fishermen went to Cotter and all three of them hit their limit! Needless to say we had the very best fish tacos I have ever had! There is just something about eating fish caught that day!Sandy, we are looking forward to many more trips to “Our Happy Place.”

    This is an excellent property for family retreats. It's just the right size for our family of 12. The house and amenities are great and the river views beautiful. This was our third year there and have thoroughly enjoyed our stay each time. The owners are wonderful, gracious people.

    This was a great location for a guys trip getaway. Plenty of room to accommodate our group. This is a unique stretch of river that provides great scenery and seclusion. The host was great with communication and had the place looking great inside and out. Can't wait to come back!

    We came to Flippin to relax, kayak, and do a little fishing. We had 4 adults, a teen, and an 11 yr old. This home was the perfect set up. We had plenty of room to let the kids play around and the adults relax. Sandy was a great host from check-in to check- out. She made sure we had everything we needed, answered questions we had about the river access, and even came out to make sure everything was okay after a storm. We have only good things to say about our stay!
