My family loved it. Lots of things to do. Great trails for walking or Atv. Kid friendly. We brought our 4 year old, almost 3 year old, and 1.5 year... read more old and they had a great time exploring. House was clean. Practical. Plenty of space inside and more than enough space outside. We will be coming back. It is now our yearly December trip.

This was the perfect weekend retreat for my husband and I with our dogs. The property is absolutely beautiful, and we loved the two hiking trails on the property. The... read more home was really nice, and the fire pit with s’mores topped it all off! This is the perfect escape, you could easily spend the whole weekend without ever leaving the property if you wanted to. Definitely will be coming back another weekend!

This is the 2nd year we have stayed at shipps landing and again it did not disappoint. I took my mom and dad this time and they had a wonderful... read more time also. We celebrated my son’s birthday. We took him fishing and he and my daughter caught some trout. We saw Turkey and deer while we sipped our coffee in the mornings. We plan to travel there every year and we absolutely love the house.
October 17, 2024AllisonThis area of Arkansas is very beautiful. The mountains nearby and proximity to the river was nice. The drive to the river was less than 3 minutes, and... read more the drive to Rose's Trout Dock to rent a boat for the day was about 10 minutes. My two children (ages 13) , my husband and I enjoyed fishing and catching rainbow trout on the river. One of the young men at Rose's Dock even fileted and deboned them for us. We cooked them for dinner and it was delicious!
This cabin had every single thing we needed - any tool you could think of for the kitchen, stocked essentials for the bathroom, and a very cool movie screen that we enjoyed watching a movie on each night. Christina was super prompt in messaging us back and answering any questions we had about the property and area. My only regret was that my daughter was not feeling well and we had to cut the trip short to get home. I was ready to try the Thai Restaurant and bakery that she recommended!

As soon as we entered the gate to the property we felt excited and at home. Christina goes above and beyond on everything from household amenities to any questions... read more you might have.

I would definitely recommend this spot for anyone wanting a little rest and relaxation..

Extremely peaceful and enjoyed riding our SXS around - even got the dogs to join us which hadn't happened before. The movie room/screen was a neat addition and bathroom very... read more spacious. Not run of the meal amenities at this place. Outside is where we spent most our time and really enjoyed the views and quietness. Both my husband and I would love to come back.

Beautiful and secluded and quiet. Christine was great and we got to check in early. The drive there was very scenic. Walmart was only about 20-25min away. Clean... read more house and plenty is space. Kids enjoyed watching shows on the projector. They had board games and other stuff to play. We also walked the Trail and saw deer and an armadillo. Take tick spray if going on foot. That was the only down fall. Again you are in the woods, so it's expected.
July 27, 2024SarahAbsolutely gorgeous property with a private cabin at the rear and space for 3 RVs towards the middle. We loved the peaceful walking trails and that our dogs had lots... read more of room to run and explore. We particularly loved the theatre room and triple-headed shower area. The screened porch and fire pit would be spectacular in the fall. Don’t forget to step outside and night and see the incredible array of stars! We had a lovely chat with the owner as we were leaving and she was very helpful throughout our stay as well. If you are looking for a private, peaceful spot near the river, this is it!

No fault to the host, Mother Nature decided to give us a full camping experience. Christina kept us well informed and checked to make sure we were okay. The cottage... read more was beautifully surrounded by creeks and wildlife. We especially loved listening to the creek running by the cottage from the porch. They had maps of the trails so it made it easy for us to move around the property. If you want to get away from the city and enjoy nature. Shipps Landing cottage is your place. Great memories made!
May 31, 2024KathyleeIt was peaceful and very quiet. We along with our fur baby enjoyed the front yard meadow. We saw deer, turkeys, an eagle and even a turtle. Close... read more enough to Mountain Home if we needed to get anything. Always easy to find our way back after a day of exploring. Plenty of amenities to make you feel at home.

April 6, 2024Stephanie WhitmanCelebrated my 40th birthday in this amazing place! I loved the location- private, peaceful and beautiful. I also loved how we felt right at home in the cottage.

Super close, as in walking distance, to the river. Lovely landscape. Our kids just loved playing in the little streams running through the property. Accommodations are very nice! Owners are very helpful and polite. Very dark night sky is perfect for stargazing and watching meteor showers!
May 6, 2023Jason AshBeautiful area with great accommodations! The river is close by and there is beautiful nature all around. The owners are very nice and it is a quiet and peaceful place to get away to!
