The home was spacious and comfortable for 5 adults and 2 young children. Raining often when we were there so morning coffee was at the large windows over looking the deck and views. We squeezed in outside activities in the afternoons. Looking forward to a return trip with sunnier weather.
In my grandson's words, "Let's buy this house and live here " and later he said, "I don't understand why the people that own this house, don't live here!"
We came to Arkansas to view the total solar eclipse. Did not disappoint!! The house was clean and welcoming and the view was amazing!! Thank you for sharing your home with us! We had a wonderful time. The Virts family
The view far surpasses the pictures! Inside was lovely and had all we needed. We were close to hiking, which we came for, plus horseback riding, canoeing, paddle boating, and just gazing at the view. The hiking also had options for all levels - plus bike trails that were paved for easier efforts. Weâll bring fishing poles next time. Great stay!
The home was the perfect size to accommodate our group of 6. Very nice living area with the open view of the river. We love Petit Jean and were happy to be so close to the park after all the park accommodations had filled up. We were there in mid October after a very dry summer so the park was very dry.The Creek wasn't flowing much and the waterfall was a trickle even so Petit Jean still didn't disappoint!
Karen was great at communicating and very helpful with all our questions. We would definetly stay there again!
We had a wonderful stay at this property and would certainly stay there again. The pictures do not do it justice. The view is just breath taking as well as the home. We had a GREAT time! Vacation with family is like no other. Close to all the beautiful sites.
Karen's home fit our needs perfectly! It was clean, spacious, and located close to the park. The deck overlooking the river is a lovely place to enjoy your morning coffee, and the shower in the master BR is amazing! Karen is a great host, helpful and quick to reply. We would love to stay here again!
The pictures donât do this place justice. The house is great and the view is incredible. You can also walk down the street to a great farmers market. Highly recommend!!
Our group of 3 adults had a wonderful time! The home is very spacious allowing for separation of bedrooms with 2 on higher level and 1 on lower level. The view was absolutely amazing!!! We came at the perfect time for hiking Petit Jean State Park. The trees were gorgeous in reds and yellows. The location is ideal for venturing out into the surrounding area, We also hiked and biked around Mt. Nebo, Mt. Magazine, and visited Hot Springs on a day trip. Karen is a perfect host. She was quick to respond to all questions and was accommodating to all of our requests. If we are in this area again we will stay here again without doubt! FYI be sure to check out the Farmer's Market right down the road. It was a great little place filled with homegrown foods.
Our 5 night stay in this home on Petit Jean was amazing! The home is so close to the state park and has a beautiful view over the valley and river.
I enjoyed every morning having my coffee with the perfect view.
All 6 of our kids LOVED it!
We hope to come back next year!

A beautiful and private location but only a few minutes drive from Petit Jean State Park. We loved the huge picture windows with a wonderful view of the Arkansas River and valley below. We had coffee on the deck in the mornings, spent the days hiking at Petit Jean State Park, watched beautiful sunsets at Mather Lodge, and then went back to the house to sit on the deck and look at the stars at night. The house had everything we needed.
This house was perfect for a long weekend getaway with some friends. It was so convenient to go over to Petit Jean State Park for hiking and kayaking- the drive was barely five minutes. The pictures do not do this beautiful home justice. We absolutely loved our stay!
This property was purchased by my parents in 1987. My father was born on this mountain in 1927 and, in fact, 6 generations of my family (dating back to the 1800s) have either lived here or have enjoyed its beauty. As a child, we celebrated many family reunions and family vacations here. Now my children and grandchildren love to visit every chance they can. Please enjoy my Family Wall with pictures of 6 generations beginning with my great grandmother, Mary Bird Gasaway.
