JB's-Getaway in the mountains with trails and more
If you are looking for a place where you can enjoy the outdoors, ATV trails, scenic drives, and still be close enough to town, this is the perfect place for you! This 2 bedroom, 2 bath house is only 7 miles from the South Trailhead Wolfpen Gap Trails. There is so much National Forest to see! Mena sits just at the base of Queen Wilhelmina State Park & Lodge and the Talihmena Scenic Drive. There is so much to love about the property including the attached deck and the creek that runs beside the house.
The home was very clean and felt very cozy. The kitchen was well equipped with plenty of space. The family enjoyed the nice deck. I will definitely choose this house again for my next trip.
We enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean. Maria was extremely quick in response to our needs. Everything went very smooth. Love to return again on another visit.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Everything was exactly as described. We were in Mena for a motorcycle rally and were thrilled to have a garage. Didnt have to cover the bike or wipe the dew off in the mornings. Would definitely come back!
We loved the location and the access to the trails. The driveway was easy for us to load and unload atv's and store our trailer.
We really liked the extra privacy on the second bedroom and bathroom!!
The grill patio was great, we were able to sit out there and enjoy our steaks we cooked on the grill.
The only complaint we had was about the showers. The one in the primary bath was short and the one in the other bath was a very small square. We made due and it was definitely not a deal breaker.
Overall good place, beware of garage flooding if it rains
The location was convenient: short 8-10 minute drive to Mena, and direct access to WGP ATV trails via connector trail and brief paved road (about 25-minute fun ride: South on Brushy/30, East on Two Mile Road, Northwest on 375 to WPG West trailhead). There are other ways via paved road also. So, it was great not to have to trailer our machines, we could ride straight to the trails. The property was large, private and conducive to my 22-foot trailer, with room to load and unload machines. You are able to pull your trailer through the property as there are 2 entrances, so no need to have to maneuver your trailer around, which was great.
We were able to store the machines (RZR and 3 quads) in the garage and ride directly to WPG. Overall, this was a good place, nice facility, good kitchen and lounging area, and good base of operations for offroading.
I gave 4/5 on cleanliness and listing accuracy for the following. The biggest issue was the garage taking on water during rain and drenching all of our shoes and trailer ratchet straps that were left in the garage. This was a normal rain, not an area flood. Water came through the back garage door and collected in the garage where there was about 2 inches of standing water. There was no warning on the listing or in the info book in the home, but there should be. Do NOT leave anything on the floor of the garage that you do not want to get soaked in the case of rain.
We loved our stay! The house was extremely clean and the host was very responsive to all our needs. We especially liked the outdoor patio and grill areas which made for a great place to unwind and enjoy the weather. Use of the garage was a nice touch, providing a way to store our ATVs when not on the trails. We will be back!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at JBâs GETAWAY. It is perfectly located close to the Wolfpen Gap trailhead and just a very short distance to town. The home was very clean, and well furnished. The running stream off of the deck was an added bonus! The host MaryJane was very responsive and very accommodating! Easy check in and check out. I highly recommend this place and we hope we have the chance to stay again !
Check in process was easy. The house was immaculately cleaned and in the perfect location to go ride ATVs at wolf pen just a couple of miles down the street. The garage access made it easy to store our side by sides and not worry about anything happening to them. 10/10 would stay here again.
We stayed for 4 days. The property was lovely and my family had a wonderful comfy place to stay in between all of the exciting activities that we did around Mena. The property owner was easy to communicate with, and was very accommodating. We'll definitely stay there again if we get down that way.
Very beautiful home with spacious and lovely yard. The deck with the small creek of water in the backyard was very relaxing.
The master shower has almost unusable flow. The other shower is too small.
Overall, wonderful 3 days in this home.
The property manager answered all my questions with in a few minutes. I have never rented an place that had everything already there. They thought of everything. You only need your personal items and food. We would definitely rent it again.
We really enjoyed our stay at the property. The host was excellent. We has everything we needed and she made sure that we were taken care of. It is a beautiful home and the location is perfect. We plan on staying here again on our next trip.
