The family-friendly river flows casually past massive rock bluffs shaded by tree-lined banks and slopes.       -Free of commercial development, the Ouachita is a gentle river with occasional Class I-II rapids separated by flat-water pools.  Fishing is excellent, with an abundance of bass (mostly smallmouth, largemouth and spotted), bluegill, catfish, green and longear sunfish, walleye and any number of other species.     - Mother Nature blessed the Ouachita Mountains with the most beautiful quartz crystal in the world.  Mount Ida is known as the "Quartz Crystal Capital of the World".  We welcome all rock hounds, both amateur and professional.        -Womble Trail, Ouachita Trail,  and Lake Ouachita Vista Trail are nearby EPIC mountain biking and hiking trails.  There are other secluded, forest trails such as Fourche Mountain Trail, available for exploring on your ATVs.  Just a few feet away from your cabin are short trails into the National Forest.        -We are located near one of the darkest sky places in Arkansas and you can easily see the Milky  Way.  We have thousands of fireflies in season and you might catch sight of an occasional Bald Eagle, Blue Heron or Road Runner.  -"Windchimes" cabin has a bit of a retro vibe and welcomes you to kick back, unwind and relax in the comfort and privacy of your own cabin.  You’ll have the space to yourself and will only share it with those you’re traveling with.  While you are staying with us you can forget about any worry you may have in the real world and just live in the moment.     - Only one of our four cabins is visible from your cabin and it is 130 ft away.   You are on the banks of the scenic Ouachita River which is 212 ft away with easy walk or drive down access. You are in the middle of the Ouachita National Forest and the nearest red light is 35 miles away,  but Mother Nature in all her splendor is only 35 seconds away.  If you want to get "away from it all", this is the place for you.  We live on site in our home/office and are available  to assist you if you need help with anything from starting a fire to answering questions about where to go and what to see.  We have a very small store and try to stock the necessities including ice, river shoes and basic food supplies.  -We are in the middle of the Ouachita National Forest on the banks of the scenic Ouachita River.   There is not a red light in our county.  If you want to get "away from it all", this is the place for you.  Just a few feet away from your cabin are short trails into the National Forest.  You need your own transportation or we can provide shuttle service for you.

    The unit was very comfortable and access to the river was good. We spent a lot of time in the river, which was pretty clear. Caught a couple of fish, but did not fish seriously. Had a good time at the fire we had every night.. they supplied the wood. A place for marshmallows and friends to get toasted. It was great having my pets with me.

    A very nice break from Home Quarentine.
    We were on a three day trip arriving around 5. We were met by Jan, our hostess, and checked in(easy) and were escorted by Jan to our cottage. She reviewed the features and with us and made sure we were set. The cottage was just what we expected. The two of us only needed the downstairs so most of the sleeping arrangements were not needed. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils. The unit wasn’t as clean as it could have been but there’s a lot of space to clean. We were satisfied. We arranged a 9 mile canoe trip for day two and were transported right from the property. That meant, of course, that the trip ended back at the property — which was nice because its easy to second guess yourself on how far you’ve gone and maybe passed your takeout point. The canoeing was great, the river peaceful and only 2 other small groups on the river. Day three we hiked at the Brushy Creek Nat’l Park 7 miles from our cottage. A map for the trails was in the cottage for us. We only hiked 4 miles but it took us close to four hours to finish. We were pooped and returned to the cottage. All nights were nice and quiet. Day four we packed and checked out. No problem.

    The views shown in the add were not what we had when we got there. We had no view of the river or the recreation area due to poor land management. Lots of brush and trees have obviously grown up since the inception of the property. The Windchime is at the top of a steep hill, providing a long walk from our cabin to the recreation area. Not recommend for older persons not in excellent condition for their age, or small children or baby strollers. The fully equipped kitchen looked like it was stocked from a garage sale. The towels provided were as well. The shower water has a distinct odor of sulphur. Seen and eliminated a few German Roaches. The outside decks are covered in mildew and other tree emitted juices and are in need if pressure washing. They were extremely slippery whet wet. The 10 seat dining table consists of 3 old restaurant tables placed end to end. The sofa and recliner are old. The upside was the 3 window AC units did a good job of keeping the cabin cool. Thankful we brought extra towels, trash bags, plasticware, the cabin sleeps 14, however other accommodations ie. forks & towels might have been enough for 6 and we had 8. Unfortunately the area recieved 10 inches of rain in tbe middle of August and within the previous 24 hours of our arrival. So the beautiful clear water river looked more like the Red River, and flooded out of its banks. Canceling any possibility of canoeing, kayaking, tube floating, fishing etc. That ofcourse was no fault of the establishment . And after about 700 bucks later after finding other activities to do at Lake Ouachita our 4 day trip was fabulous. Check the weather reports for Pencil Bluff before booking your stay. Ask questions and requests more photos of views from your cabin.
