We are Doug and Jacki Alexander, the proud owners of this stunning property. Three years ago, we had the honor of purchasing this home from R.C. Smith, whose family has cherished this land for over a century. R.C. built this home in the heart of a working cattle ranch, and for more than five years, he shared it with guests through VRBO (VRBO #754008). While we weren’t raised here, we feel a deep connection to the property through the rich stories and history R.C. has shared with us. Our own roots run deep in cattle ranching, stretching back generations in the Texas Panhandle. We invite you to experience the same peace, beauty, and sense of belonging that make this place truly special. To our returning guests, we say a heartfelt THANK YOU and WELCOME BACK! And to those discovering this retreat for the first time, WELCOME! We hope you’ll fall in love with the peaceful surroundings, create lasting memories, and make this your new favorite escape. SPECIAL NOTE: While our summer bookings show a five-night minimum, shorter stays may be available between reservations. If you're interested in a shorter visit, just send us an inquiry with your preferred dates, and we’ll do our best to accommodate you with a special quote. \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ A Dream Destination for Outdoor Enthusiasts Tucked into a private valley surrounded by the Ouachita National Forest and Muddy Creek Wildlife Management Area, this property is an outdoor lover’s paradise.

The hot tub was great for stargaze & long driveway was perfect for a workout and run. Beds were super comfy and the kitchen was fully stocked with whatever you fancied to cook up! This was a great home to share with family and friends. ##### Regina R. Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barb P.

We had a group of 14 ranging from ages 77 down to seven and all were accommodated easily. The home was stocked so well and everything was roomy and comfortable. The pool was great. front porch was great. We had a wonderful time the owners and Mrs. Bethany took good care of us and responded immediately whenever we had a question. I would recommend this vacation home to all. ##### Barb P. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amber M.

All the rooms are spacious and spaced throughout the house to give more "privacy". My kids all took over one area in the house and called it the "kids wing". Communication was excellent before and during the stay. Even though the pictures are very accute and the was even more stunning in person! I'm hoping to be able to stay again in the future! ##### Amber M. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Noland B. Jun 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family Vacation Lovely place to get away and relax!! Quiet area with a pool that we so enjoyed!! Nice lake to fish and/or use the paddle boat. One evening the perch were really biting and the kiddos had a great time catching them and tossing them back in the lake. Lots of room outside to play a game of kick ball. A long paved driveway for the kids to ride their bikes. The house was great for all of our cooking and family meals and we enjoyed dominos on the large table after the kids went to bed. The layout of the house is fantastic giving you the opportunity to be together but have your own personal space. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a place to relax and enjoy time with family!!! ##### Noland B. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brenda m.

Everything was just perfect, plenty of room for everyone. We fished, swam, played cards, and generally just hung out. Cancelled the plans for mining cause no one wanted to leave for the day. The amenities were over the top. The kitchen is a dream kitchen for sure! Mrs Bethany was most helpful for any questions we had. Hands down best family vacation ever. Thank you Douglas and Jacki! Already making plans for next year!!! ##### Brenda m. Stayed 6 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### jennifer m.

There were 13 of us aged 16 to 69 and we were all very happy with this rental! The pool was our absolute favorite place. We have never stayed anywhere with a nicer kitchen layout and my goodness was it stocked with ALL the appliances and cookware you could want! It is pretty countryside and the cows were entertaining. Pond was lovely. I never saw any kayaks but there was a row boat we used to fish from. Bunkhouse was great for extra space. Wifi didnt always work but we had plenty to occupy our time we loved our stay here. Very clean and well kept. Home owners were awesome. ##### jennifer m.

Jul 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful place for large group Our group of 6 adults and 2 kids had plenty of room to stretch out and give everyone space to do their own thing. Hot Springs was not too far for a nice day trip, but not much else close by. Glad we preplanned all our meals so did not have to spend so much time cooking there. Pool was nice but the fumes from the mothballs placed in the broken waterfall rocks was very offputting and the wasps were a nuisance that made their nests inside the rocks. I think the waterfall should be dismantled to solve those problems and would also allow access around that side of the pool. The paddleboat was a hit and the kids enjoyed fishing off the bank. Except for mother nature sending us a severe wind storm and making us do a lot of unplanned yardwork and pool cleanup, we enjoyed our stay immensely. Would highly recommend for large groups who want a quiet get away. ##### Karen S. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tracy B.

Beautiful home that has been well thought out with guests in mind. Kitchen has everything you need and then some. The pool was such a bonus when you just want to hang out at the house & had everything you might need to enjoy it that you may have forgotten. Beautiful sunsets overlooking the pond. Hot Springs was not too far to drive to & enjoy shopping & exploring the town. Quachita National Forest is all around you to enjoy hiking, kayaking & horsebacking riding. If the weather does not allow outdoor activities, stay home & enjoy any of the board games the host has to offer or sit outside on the enclosed porch & enjoy the rain. My family & I have been renting large homes to enjoy time together with one another for our family reunions for about 15 years & this home far exceeded any others! ##### Tracy B.

There is so much room to spread out and everything was very clean. We were so impressed by how well stocked it was. We have stayed in a lot of VRBOs but never one that had so many extras. The owners thought of everything that you could possibly need. Everyone loved the pool, fishing, playing basketball, sitting on the front porch, watching the cows and taking walks down the road. There is a large grassy area that was perfect for frisbee and yard golf and the kids loved riding their bikes on the large paved areas. The pictures don’t do it justice. It is a beautiful property with great views and the new landscaping and outdoor lights are so pretty. There was nothing about it that we didn’t like. Wish we could have stayed longer! ##### Cheryl H.

Beautiful home with a pool & pond right out the back door! Sit on the screened in back porch with a view of the pond & watch the sunset or sit on the front porch in the morning relaxing & drinking coffee as the cows graze across the front pasture! When they say the kitchen is fully stocked they mean it! Spices, every small appliance you would have at home, dishes for toddlers, even tupperware for your leftovers! They have supplied games, pool toys, even some extra pool towels, & aloe vera gell because there is always someone who gets a sunburn. Kayak rentals & horse back riding are less than a 10 minute drive away or visit Hot Springs for the famous bath houses or just some shopping & exploring. Visit Queen Wilhelmina for the spectular overlook. And don't forget to vistit the ice cream parlor while there & take the litle ones on a train ride. You will not be disappointed in booking! ##### Patricia B. Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### paige k.

The house was just as described. Although the house is back behind a busy road you really have no idea. The house is as described just as the pictures show and the kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could need. The pool was wonderful and the tank for fishing left fun to be had by all. It rained some on our stay and we enjoyed it from the screened in porch. The house is dated (all part of the farmhouse charm) but the owners are trying to update as they can and they are doing a great job. Any issue we had they communicated with us almost instantly. We visited Lake Ouchita and it’s beautiful and a must see just down the road. We did most of our grocery shopping at Bobs and the prices compared pretty much to Walmart in Mena. We will be back. Thanks for a great relaxing week! ##### paige k.
