CHECK AVAILABILITY
This place was amazing! Being able to get away from town and while at the house not see or hear anyone except maybe a plane; no people, no traffic. 10/10.... read more The little pool table and projector were a huge hit for the kids and the king and full size mattresses were the best we’ve ever had in an Airbnb. We genuinely did not want to leave. Our kids kept asking if we could live there.

No one was ever bored, and the sound system through the entire house was... read more a hit for music! everything you need to cook is provided all you have to do is take food! My favorite part was the complimentary bowl of Smores supplies! Somehow we forgot to grab smores making at Walmart and this saved the night for our 5 kids! Will 100% stay again!

Extremely private home! RV spots are far away. We never saw another person on the property. No neighbors on the 200ac of beautiful pristine land. We really enjoyed riding our... read more SXS on the trails. The house was above and beyond on amenities and comfort! The shower was excellent with rain head, sprayer, and regular shower head.

Where should I start! It was my family of 5, 3 extra teenagers, and my husbands 73 year old friend. We brought ATVs and a fishing boat. The access to... read more the White River is right outside of the main gate. The house was huge and the projector screen was great to watch the Razorbacks on. We extended our stay and I brought my laptop so I could work. The desk and work space had ample amount of room and the internet was fast enough to accommodate having to have multiple people on it. We look forward to many more stays here. Everything was great.

We enjoyed our stay very much. Beautiful, peaceful property with lots to do, from four-wheeler riding to fishing and hiking. The house was spotless and had everything we could need... read more for our trip. You could tell the hosts put a lot of thought into making their guests comfortable and happy.

All we can say about Shipps Landing is just WOW! We wanted an escape from everything, with peace and quiet in nature. We got that and so much more! We... read more needed to adjust our stay for medical reasons and Christina was very accommodating. We wanted to see fall colors and have the experience of serine autumn my wife and I both grew up with but can’t get in southeast Texas and we totally got every bit of what we hoped for. The bed was super comfortable. The lanai was possibly our favorite space to sit and sip our morning coffee and observe the variety of wildlife. The laundry accommodation came in handy so that we could pack light for our long travels. The kitchen had everything we needed so we barely left the property. Our pups had a blast running amuck chasing balls and observing the armadillos from a chaperoned distance. All in all it was everything we hoped for and more. Thank you for a much needed rest. We will be sure to return asap! Also, thanks for the s’more’s accommodations!

Shipps Landing was a really fantastic place for our weekend getaway. The land around the cabin made the privacy unlike any place we have ever stayed, and we really loved... read more exploring nature through all the trails. The cabin is large enough for a family, yet it still feels cozy with all the amenities Christina provides. The kitchen comes with everything you will need to cook and serve your meals. Or if you prefer to eat out, Norfork is an easy 15-20 minute drive. The movie room was a great place to unwind and relax in the evening when we came inside. And we really loved the screened in porch and the fire pit area. We enjoyed everything about the property!

This is a great place to relax and enjoy the serenity and peace of nature. We had several family members and grandchildren visit during the stay and there were plenty... read more of things for everyone to do. Based on some of the photographs we assumed that it was right on the river bluff even though it didn't say that in the description. We hiked up the trail, huffing and puffing a little bit, to the bluff and enjoyed the beautiful view nonetheless. It was worth the effort. We saw bear tracks and what we thought were bobcat tracks along the way. Christina is a wonderful host who was great at communicating with us. The cottage was lovely inside and we especially admired the way the bumk area doubled as a play area for the kids. Great overall experience.
