Best kept secret in Arkansas

This was our second stay at Kate’s Creek Cabin and there is a reason for that. The owners are the nicest people and the cabin/property is perfect. This cabin is the perfect place to retreat, relax, and unwind. We absolutely love the middle of nowhere feel mixed with wildlife and beautiful scenery. Within an hour of being there, we saw 15 deer And lots of other animals. The creek that runs through the property, offers an unbelievable ambiance that forces you relax. This place is heaven to me and my wife and we already can’t wait to rebook!

Country Seclusion at its Best

This is what we were looking for. No internet, no phone service, no people.....just quiteness, wildlife, a gurgling brook, and peace. (Our only recommendation is that the streetlight in the field could be turned off so we could enjoy the stars under a dark sky.)

What a beautiful cabin and land..This is perfect place to get away far from the busy, every day life. Totally disconnect from the world and enjoy peace. The kids had to learn how to play with having electronics. 😆 Great quality time.

The property was private, secluded, and breathtaking. No wifi or cell service gave us the perfect opportunity to unplug and engage as a family. The home was well equiped with everything we needed including board games. The property owners were helpful, respectful, and friendly

Kates Cabin Review

Hello, we really enjoyed staying in the Ouachita National Forest. First and foremost we loved the cabin. Nestled in the perfect spot surrounded by a beautiful little creek, the cabin makes you feel at home. Deer and other wildlife are abundant and the stars ar night are next level. Clean and comfortable definitely be back.

Very secluded and peaceful. This is by far the best place we have stayed on vacation and will be returning soon. The cabin is by far the most supplied place you will ever stay. The host are amazing and Mr John even rode over to draw a map where we could take kids fishing.

Relaxing Place to Unplug

Our family enjoyed staying at this cozy cabin. We were able to savor our time together without the distraction of connectivity. Lazy days of poking around the campfire, creek, and surrounding hills followed by evenings of Monopoly, music, cooking, and reading. 4 humans and 1 dog filled up the cabin so just be aware if you have a large group. Five stars from my family.

Relaxing getaway

It’s the perfect place to relax. Whether it was sitting on the wraparound porch listening to the creek or taking a walk, it was the best 3 days we’ve had in awhile. The weather was also perfect. It was our 3rd time to visit Kate’s Creek Cabin & yes we’ll be back. The owners, John Carl & Lisa are wonderful people!

The property with the cabin and creek was exactly what we wanted and needed. We were able to spend our time sitting on the porch by the creek reading our Bibles for some much needed quiet time with God! Thank you for making your property be a little slice of heaven!

Perfect Getaway Cabin

This was our third stay in this cozy cabin. It has everything you need for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. The fact that there is no wifi is definitely a plus, you really can get away from it all. John Karl and Lisa are easy to communicate with and have created what we think is the perfect cabin.

Absolutely wonderful!

I loved the property! It’s just delightful. A pretty creek, very quiet and the lack of cell service and internet was exactly what I needed. Deer came to the creek daily. My dog was in heaven with acres to explore. I would love to return yearly for just a life detox. Slow country living in the mountains…..perfect!!!

Met all expectations

We just wanted a place to get away, be secluded, and enjoy mother nature. This place was perfect as we pulled and I got out yo open the gate a deer ran up the creek about 30 ft from me! I felt that was a perfect sign and it didn't disappoint. We were pleased and will definitely be back.

Relaxing getaway

We had a wonderful weekend getaway at the cabin. Lisa was great at answering any questions I had before our trip. John Karl checked on us when we arrived and gave some great tips on what areas to check out for fishing and tubing. I think he and my husband could have sat and told old stories for hours! Precious people! Beautiful property! We loved the creek outside, which was a much needed relief from the crazy heat. Our airedale terrier was in heaven checking out everything and playing in the water. The house is rustic and cozy, and we had everything we needed. Be sure to grab groceries and any necessities at Walmart if you drive through Mena. Otherwise there is a little store down the road with some items. We enjoyed visiting the Little Missouri River Falls and the Caddo River.

Our honeymoon.

Our experience was wonderful. Location is accurate and out in BFE with no one else to be seen. Our puppies loved it. Cabin theme is all about bears and just outstanding beautiful. Will definitely go there again. We meant the owners and our lovely people. Played in the stream. The only recommendations that we would have is to add a landline because there is no internet and cell phones do not work in that area. You have to drive to town to use your cell phone, and increase the water pressure from 30 PSI to at least 50 psi for the washing machine. Other than that don't change a thing.

Secluded Cabin Getaway

We were looking for a secluded cabin with space for our dogs to run and a water source for them to play in. We found it at Kates Creek Cabin in western Arkansas. Secluded? You bet! The cabin is located on 150 acres! No street or city noises…just the sound of nature. So comfortable and relaxing. It was worth the drive from Austin, TX. Can’t wait to go back.
