About this cabin rental

Merlyn's Cabin has an open floor plan with queen sized bed upstairs and two twins downstairs. 2 Bathrooms--one up and one down both with showers. Fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher. All linens are furnished. An efficient heat pump provides comfortable climate control. There is a wonderful screened porch where you can
enjoy a respite after hiking or rock climbing. I love starting the day on the porch with a cup of coffee and watching the many species of birds that are in the forest surrounding the cabin.

8 / 10Excellent·May 2026
This cabin is indeed secluded yet it is relatively convenient to Jasper and many area attractions. Our time there was peaceful and quiet and we loved the forest views from the big windows in the main floor living space and upstairs bedroom area. This was home base for us for a week of hiking in the Ozark National Forest and Buffalo National River. Having 2 bathrooms is a nice feature and there were plenty of good quality bath towels. The place could have used a good spring cleaning. It seemed like it had been closed up for a while and just needed top to bottom sweeping, vacuuming and dusting, including the screen porch. As other reviewers have mentioned the upstairs bed was comfortable enough but is very loud when you move around on it. The place could also use some furniture updates - less furniture overall and a few more comfortable pieces.

The location is great for climbing, but the small road is hard for Google maps to find, so follow the provided instructions. It's an easy driveway to miss.It's very secluded which is nice, but there was a lot of poison ivy.The cabin felt like a storage place for antique furniture. The queen bed makes more noise than a screen door in a hurricane. The pullout bed is broken. Personally, I found the queen mattress to be too soft.The cabin had been tidied, but wasn't clean. There was a mouse nest on the pullout bed and mice had been chewing on the silverware caddy. We started the trip by running the dishwasher. The room with the queen bed is a lofted room and open to the downstairs. The cabin might sleep 4, but there are only two dining room chairs. It wasn't terrible, but we were disappointed and left a night early.
