We loved it. 3 brothers met to fish Calico Rock trout dock. We fished 3 days and the house made the trip even better. We caught so many fish our arms were tired. Goodness made it easy to recoup and be ready for next day.
This cabin is the perfect place for two couples.
The view is spectacular. This was the third time we stayed here. The cabin is clean and spacious. Has all the amenities that we need. The television is a little difficult to figure out, but we hardly ever turned it on. I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone.
The home was clean and there were plenty of kitchen utensils. The view of the White River and cattle ranch were wonderful. We had so much fun spotting wildlife and watching the sunrises and sunsets. The only suggestion I have is to add a luggage stand in the guest rooms because we had to put suitcases on the floor. There is a bench in the primary bed room, which was great. The beds are very comfortable, however, there is only one night stand in the bedrooms. A small table on the other side of the beds would be nice for placing phone and eyeglasses.
We were very happy that this place has a garage to park our vehicle in and store fishing equipment. We have already recommended this home to friends.
Best property to rent. Immaculate, beautiful view of the White River, fully equipped, beds are so comfortable. No better place to stay. Housekeeper, Mae lives close and will be at your beckon call for anything. Words cannot explain this beautiful home. Just have to see for yourself.
Great location, great stay, signage and rules a little aggressive.
Let me start by saying that we very much enjoyed our stay at this rental in Calico Rock. It was what I would consider very close to a five star accommodation. I'm going to attempt to give my clearest and most unbiased review of the property.
House- 5* The house is beautiful and pristine. It is clear that it has been well maintained and cared for. There is a consistent color theme throughout the house. All work appears to have been completed by licensed contractors. Showers tubs and furniture were all in perfect condition (some thought the beds a little stiff but not myself). The view is indeed a "million dollar view". The house sets closer to its neighbors then was expected but this did not ultimately diminish the stay.
Accomodations- 4* the accommodations in the house are adequate. Soap, dishwashing detergent, and towels were all in abundant supply. There's an ample supply of plates, dishes and silverware. We did run into a few shortages that were unexpected. The house had a coffee maker (automatic Keurig style) but there was no complimentary coffee included. One roll of paper towels was supplied to us. We attempted to consistently clean up after ourselves and ended up using the entire roll before finishing our stay. There were no extra "frills" or "courtesy packages" as you might find in some other bed and breakfasts' but all in all we felt that we were adequately supplied.
Instructions and communication - 3.5* the host was clear about rules and expectations. We did have a difficult time finding the code to unlock the lockbox in email but ultimately found it (probably our fault). There was abundant signage and also a rule book of sorts to clarify expectations. As a fellow business owner, and landlord I appreciated the clarity and thoroughness of guidance. The quantity and verbiage of the signage and rules did feel somewhat excessive and perhaps slightly aggressive (more than likely the owner has been taken advantage of by renters). We felt that the content of the signage was necessary but the directness and quantity of rules (do not...shall not...$100 fine at owner's discretion) eroded some of the "luxury" appeal of the stay
Overall - 4.5* Overall I would consider this an excellent rental. The house and location are excellent. With gorgeous views, a nice deck and close proximity to the river it made for a wonderful weekend trip. Accommodations and signage could be improved slightly but were not a major detractor. I would recommend this.
Beautiful, immaculate house. View was breathtaking. The fishing was unbelievableâŠbig Trout!!!! The house keeper lives close by. She is very nice and efficient.
Stayed here several times and keep coming back. House is an excellent value and well placed to enjoy the outdoors of Izard and Stone counties. Quiet and comfortable.
Went to say my final goodbye to my mom in the place she and I loved to go together. As always the place was immaculate and beautiful. Started making new memories with friends while saying good bye to the old ones with my mom.
Perfect place for a low key weekend. this property is a little jewel. Super clean, kitchen was well appointed, spacious, with comfortable beddingâand having a garage was a real luxury for loading and unloading. Will definitely return!
My husband and i needed a quiet weekend away. This was the perfect spot for it. The property was clean and well kept. We sat on the deck and watched the cows and talked. Very relaxing. Only issue was the garage door opener did not work.
The view is ABSOLUTLY BEAUTIFUL.! Waking up to the morning fog and sunsets at night is so comforting! The house was very nice. Not our first time renting from this property owner. We will definitely be back.
