Home in Cove

One Eyed Odie's

KandisRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Five stars aren’t enough for One Eyed Odies! 🌟 We were looking for a peaceful place to reset as a family—and wow did this secluded gem in Cove, Arkansas deliver. Tucked away near national forests and just a short ride to Mena, One Eyed Odies was the perfect escape from the noise of everyday life. The cabin had everything we needed and more: cozy linens, fluffy towels, snacks (!!), and even toiletries—We felt instantly at home. We spent our days soaking in the beauty of nature, riding the SXSs to the gorgeous Cossatot River, and exploring trails just minutes from the cabin. Evenings were magical—gathered around the fire pit while we made s’mores under the stars. ✨🔥 Our family truly got the reset we needed. The quiet surroundings helped us disconnect from screens and reconnect with each other. Our teenagers actually talked to us—and to each other! Total win. The sweet visiting puppy dogs were the icing on the cake. 🐶💕

Cabin in De Queen

Cossatot Bend

BonnieRating, 5 stars4 days ago

The perfect getaway for an outdoor retreat! Watching the river from the large porch was one of my favorite things about the home. The porch also had a lockable gate so my dog couldn’t sneak down the stairs by himself.

Cabin in Caddo Gap

Lil' Rustic Retreat w/Hot Tub right on Jack Creek

RachaelRating, 5 stars2 months ago

You think you need 3 days away? You need 5 and you need them right here in this tranquil, deeply restorative, quaint, rustic cabin. This cabin is overflowing with unique touches and extreme hospitality, so many little decorative touches and treats we couldn't enjoy them all in our 3 day stay. Which brings me back to you MUST book 5 days minimum! LOL From the porch swing naps to the Hot Tub soaks, everything was in perfect order. We had a small problem with the hot plate and a replacement was immediately provided. Do you know how incredible that was? You are literally in the middle of NOWHERE and POOF, instant response. Incredible. We were already in love with this little place, but that kind of attention takes it to the next level. I can't recommend Fancy Hills highly enough. We hope to stay again and again and again.
