Buffalo Cabin Gorgeous Illinois River view
Summary: Buffalo Cabin at The River Bluff Cabins has a breathtaking view of the Illinois River and also access to the water. The River Trail takes you about 1/3 of a mile down a scenic path to the river. The secluded, gated property is well kept and the cabin is cute, comfy, and clean. It’s 6 miles to Tahlequah and 4.6 miles to All American floats. Bring your family and friends and make unforgettable memories! The property also has another 8 person cabin, 4 glamping sites, and 6 RV sites.
The Space: The cabin has an open kitchen/living/dining area, two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a laundry room. You can see the River from the master bedroom and kitchen/living/dining rooms. The master has a huge desk with granite countertops and has an attached bathroom. There is a huge carport and a wrap around porch overlooking the river. The river access is about 1/3 of a mile down a trail that drops 160 ft in elevation. The usability of the river varies quite a bit depending on the water level. When we’ve had a lot of rain,the water flows swiftly and can be a challenge for younger kids. However during dryer times, the water is down and moves much slower, making it easier for young kids to enjoy. Even when the water is fast, young kids can play on the edge where it’s a couple of feet deep and has a slow swirl back upstream. There are deep pools just upstream and downstream for those who can swim well. Keep in mind that the water moves rocks constantly so the form of the river bottom always changes.
Guest Access: Guests will have access to the entire cabin and 26 acre property except the area around the shop building. Our property line is about 20 feet into the woods on all sides. You will have your own fire pit and yard. The river is just 1/3 of a mile down a walking path that drops about 160 feet in elevation. There is a gate at the entrance to the property. I will send a code for entry before your reservation starts.
The Neighborhood: Buffalo Cabin is located 6 miles east of Tahlequah at The River Bluff Cabins, a beautiful, gated property, situated on a high bluff overlooking the Illinois River. It is 4.5 miles to Riverbend by the Bridge, 4.6 miles to All American Floats, 9.4 miles to Illinois River Outfitters, 9.6 miles to Diamondhead, 10 miles to War Eagle, and 14 miles to Eagle Bluff Resort.
Getting Around: Parking is free and there is plenty of room for multiple vehicles.
Other Things to Note: -We allow pets but we charge a $50 pet fee. -Most of the bluff is not an immediate cliff but there are places along the ridge where the drop off is more than a few feet down. Please keep an eye on small children. This is a no smoking property. If a smoke smell is present inside the cabin, we will charge an extra fee of $200.
Interaction with Guests: I will be available by messaging through airbnb, text, or phone. I or a responsible person will be close by in case of any issues.

Property owner was exceptional as was the property. The most serene stay I’ve personally ever had through VRBO. Check in/ Checkout was hassle free. Again I cant give enough positive feedback on this prosperity and host.
We absolutely loved the cabin! It was perfect for our family and we enjoyed everything so much! It was extremely clean and prepared when we arrived. We very much appreciated the amenities and games. Communication with the host was amazing and they were very accommodating! Our family is already planning a return trip.
The setting is quiet and peaceful. You can sit on the patio and see the river below and hear it murmuring as it flows by. We saw deer playing down by the river and bald eagles flying by the patio. The cabin was spotless and well stocked with everything we could possibly need, especially the kitchen. The River Trail was beautiful (but tough for an old lady!)
Very clean, great views, great communication with the host. Everything we needed to cook (I cooked a lot during our stay). Great for kids! They had small outdoor toys for them to play with. Loved the covered car port. Great storage in the master bedroom. Loved the laundry area as well. Amazing kitchen with huge island! Plenty of seating inside.
