About this property

Mountain Retreat Near Buffalo River , Kayaks & Dirt Bike Adventure - -Happy Hawk

  • Tucked high on a serene Ozark hill in Marshall, Arkansas, Happy Hawk is more than a cabin — it’s a hidden sanctuary where time slows down.
    Spread across three acres of lush hilltop, this retreat welcomes you with panoramic valley views, whispering winds, and the gentle songs of birds greeting each dawn.

    From the large screened porch, sip your morning coffee as the sun rises over the forest canopy — a peaceful start to the day accompanied by the melody of chirping songbirds. In the evening, step onto the spacious deck to witness the sky ignite in shades of orange and violet as the sun sets over the Ozark forest valley. When night falls, the clear, unspoiled sky transforms into a canvas of stars — a stargazer’s dream and a perfect end to your tranquil day.

    Every moment here feels calm, connected, and timeless — a place where nature speaks softly, and your soul finally listens.

It is SO quiet and peaceful on the top of the mountain. Be sure to drive a 4WD or capable FWD vehicle, as the driveway up to the lovely cabin is a very steep, rocky road. Beautiful view, gorgeous sunrise, plenty of space to walk doggos, and pin-drop quiet with a blanket of stars overhead at night. If you want solitude, this place is perfect!

In one word, Serenity!Quiet, secluded escape for anyone looking to escape the chaos. Cabin was well furnished with everything you could need.Could not figure out the television, but that was the lowest on our priorities. Screened in lanai ( porch )was our favorite place. Deer visited each day & was a surprise to see Fireflies for the first time in 30 years!Only fault was not from the property, but from the steep gravel road the last half mile of the trip.4x4 would of been nice, but 2 wheel drive did the job. Just take it easy, lot of loose rock and gravel. Looking to return in the fall for the all the tree color's.
