This home was such a treat! Coming from Kansas, we don't get to experience anything such as this very often. We so enjoyed the peacefulness and solitude of the location, the cleanliness and details of the accommodations -- and we especially appreciated the graciousness of our hosts for sharing such a premier location on the River.
Morrilton is the best place to go for groceries which is about 12 mi. However, we brought our own, anticipating distances. All other details are wonderfully provided in a well stocked kitchen. Movies? No worries -- access to many venues are made available via satellite. Internet -- no worries.
Petit Jean, as a state park offers many trails to explore that are family, senior, and pet friendly. My husband and I, (both over 60, were pleasantly surprised we managed the most strenuous - Cedar Falls Trail, just beyond Mathers Lodge.
The accommodations offered by Gwen and Bear provide an option outside of the park with a much better view and all the nuances of the River! Very highly recommend. We anticipate returning!
