About this house rental
Have water lovers in your group? You will have many options to get your fix here at Leprechaun Landing! Enjoy fun in the sun at the private, on-premises saltwater pool that includes a waterfall feature. The pool is open from the beginning of March through the beginning of November (weather permitting). There is an option to have to pool heated for a small fee. If soaking and relaxing is more your style there is a 6 person hot tub available for your (and 5 of your closest friends') pleasure. If you are feeling adventurous but don't want to travel, you can always wander right down the road to fish off the dock in the Little Red River. The Little Red River holds the World Record for the largest Brown Trout ever caught in May of 1992 at 40 pounds and 4 ounces. If you are a seasoned fisherman (or even one who requires a little more help) be sure and book a guided tour. We will be happy to set you up with one at your request! These guys are phenomenal and will astound you with their vast knowledge of the flora and fauna and the history that this stunning area has to offer, well worth the expense! If an even larger (and warmer) body of water is more what you have in mind, Greers Ferry Lake is but a 4 mile car ride away. Plan to spend at least one day visiting the lake as there is lots of fun to be had there. You can have lots of fun boating, swimming in the swimming areas, diving off the cliffs or just watching the world go by. There are grills and picnic tables available for use if you choose to bring a picnic lunch. The marinas offer pontoon boat rental and watersport equipment such as jet skis, kneeboards, wakeboards and innertubes.
The Heber Springs area offers plenty of fun for the land lovers in the group as well! Just up the river from Leprechaun Landing is the Fish Hatchery. It is a short trip upstream to learn about the rainbow trout that are produced there in order to restock the Little Red River. Time spent here is well-spent learning about the ecosystem of this area from their friendly and knowledgeable staff. Just up the river from there towards the dam is JFK park, which has a wonderful camping area and does offer some hiking as well. Other beautiful places to hike include Mossy Bluff National Nature Trail, Collins Creak Trailhead, Josh Park Memorial Trail Jeff Anderson Trail, Hidden Pond, Sugarloaf Mountain and many more breathtaking areas to stretch your legs. Other fun things to do in Heber include dining in quaint restaurants, shopping in the plethora of well-stocked antique stores, (and of course the ubiquitous Wal Mart-delivery available!) bowling, skating, movie watching and sightseeing. The resort also has an upscale restaurant on the river coming soon!
Our repeat guests love this area and return year after year. They discover something new and exciting with each visit. We hope to host you at Leprechaun Landing very soon!
