3 Br Private Vacation Home Vacation Rental In Mountain View, Arkansas

WHAT WE LOVE ABOUT THIS PROPERTY:

We just had Fiber Optic Internet installed - way out here! Total privacy for creek exploring and star gazing - back to the farm with luxe (and smart) comforts that are all newly remodeled. Except random tractors, there is zero light or sound pollution, and no other domiciles around. At arrival in the valley, it feels really good. You are out there. It can be unnerving for some. Others, like us, crave just this. 15 minutes from shopping and medical in Mountain View, Arkansas, this is multi-generational homestead acreage – still in the family (John Thomas).
~ There is abundant wildlife; turkey, deer and even a shy bear in area. Did we mention cows? There are cows on the property. Cows go poop and "mooo." - they are carefully selected non aggressive cows.
~ The whole house is on a well. It's delicious. But this also means that its clarity can change and it has minerals - minerals can leave film. It is filtered and very drinkable, unless after heavy rains. We also stock 2 gallons treated water under the sink for drinking.
~ Exterior cameras in place at this property. Facing the driveway, side yard, and front yard.
PROPERTY LOCATION:

Gently rolling gravel road last two miles that any vehicle with 4 wheels can handle. The cattle are fenced away from the house but you will pass in their grazing field to access the creek as well as the driveway into the farmhouse. It is about 30 minutes from our world class Blanchard Caverns Recreation area and OK Trading Post with horse trail riding. It is 15 minutes from Angler's and Jack’s Resort restaurant and trout Fishing guide services and 15 minutes from shopping, medical in the town that you will fall in love with, MOUNTAIN VIEW ARKANSAS.
Other area attractions include North Sylamore Creek - for top notch swimming and smallmouth bass fishing, Ozark Folk Center State Park, Loco Ropes Course (tree top adventures), Arkansas Craft School - all within about 15 minutes.
ABOUT THE WATER:

Rocky Bayou is not really a bayou but a spring fed Ozark creek. Its level varies with rainfall, and it runs year round. While it is not known as a fishing destination, we’ve certainly seen smallmouth bass in it. Trout will travel up it in winter floods. There is a special dedicated area for catch and release. It is not located directly in front of the house. We will point you to this very near area about a 5 minute walk away. It is great for hanging out along side the gravel bars AND splashing in - varying pools and riffles - bring some creek shoes. It is not floatable. For more water adventure, go to the White River - Anglers' and Jack's Resort rent John boats and trout guide services economically. Boats can take you to confluences of other creeks where you can comfortably swim also. Really fun!
PROPERTY ACCESSIBILITY: There are steps to enter the main level of the property.
PETS: This property does NOT allow pets (owners are allergic and cows and dogs don’t generally do well together).
