Peaceful Getaway
Beautiful views of the River Valley in a quiet neighborhood. Conveniently located to all area attractions. I recommend driving along the river to downtown Fort Smith for the Saturday morning farmers market when you stay here.

We always enjoy our stay
We have stayed here many times because of it's convenience and comfort. I enjoy the kitchen stocked with a nice variety of cooking essentials because we always gather in the evenings to enjoy home cooked meals. Thank you again!

Getaway to see the grandbaby
Booked this house for the weekend to visit my son’s family for the weekend. The first thing I noticed when we pulled up to the house was the view of the river, so beautiful especially at sunset. The house was clean and beautifully decorated. The property is quite old, but house has been updated just enough to offer functionality while maintaining the old world charm. Awesome touches throughout the house- water bowl for furry family, stocked spice cabinet, baby spoons in the silverware drawer. The owner was pleasant and easy to communicate with and quickly responsive. Will definitely book this spot again!

Will stay there again
Not only was everything clean, convenient, but Gina furnished a dog bowl, a ball (which Phoebe unfortunately ro9lled under the furniture in the den and I couldn't reach it) but also dog treats. Coffee and creamer was furnished along with spices. Awesome kitchen and the shower was great. Will stay there again if I have to be in the area.

Beautiful views, peaceful, safe neighborhood and lots of wildlife to see. Easy access to downtown Van Buren and Fort Smith. The host is awesome. This is definitely my favorite place to stay when I’m visiting friends and family or attending to business in the River Valley.

Restful Retreat
Another relaxing stay at this peaceful property. The property has amazing views and an awesome host. But one of the best features is the location that is only minutes from downtown Van Buren and the easy access to downtown Fort Smith.
