The space

Escape into nature, without giving anything up

A Still Point Cabin is the perfect retreat. With a beautiful view of the Ozark mountains from the back deck, you can easily escape into nature. Cozy and efficient, this cabin is the ideal setting for a getaway with friends and family.

With a queen bed upstairs, a queen memory-foam pull-out couch, and a queen Cordaroy convertible bag-chair (big enough for two small children), there is plenty of room for everyone. Come relax in our hot tub, too.

Soak under the stars, watch the sunset from the back porch, gather around the fire pit for s’mores, and unplug in the quiet of the woods. It is peaceful, private and scenic — the kind of place guests return to again and again.

“Very secluded, comfortable, cozy cabin for our trip. A beautiful location with an amazing view. It was so good that I proposed on the back porch!”

Why guests choose it

Six reasons this cabin books out

A hot tub over the valley, a mile of gravel between you and the world, and the Buffalo River twenty minutes down the hill.
  • Hot tub with mountain views

    A private hot tub, available all year, looking straight out over the Buffalo River valley. Sunsets in the evening, stars once it is properly dark.

  • Genuinely secluded

    A private entrance, a private backyard and a mile of gravel road between you and everything else. Guests describe it as quiet, tranquil and completely their own.

  • Back-deck sunsets

    The screened porch and back deck face the valley. Guests keep using the same word for the sunsets here: indescribable.

  • Near the Buffalo River & trails

    A short drive to canoe and kayak launches, trailheads and waterfalls — including the popular hike down to Triple Falls.

  • Pet-friendly

    Bring the dogs. The backyard is private (not fully fenced) and the trails nearby are made for long walks together.

The experience

What you’ll love

Days on the water and the trail. Evenings that slow all the way down.
Private hot tub on the lawn at sunset, steam rising, overlooking the Buffalo River valley under a pink and orange Ozark sky

01

Soak under the stars

The hot tub sits at the edge of the lawn where the ground drops away into the valley. There is no light pollution out here, so the sky fills in completely once the sun goes down.

Screened back porch with a gas grill and bistro table, looking out over treetops to the layered Ozark ridgelines

02

Watch the sunset from the deck

The back deck and screened porch look west across layered ridgelines. Bring coffee in the morning and something colder at golden hour.

03

Gather around the fire pit

A stone fire pit, hanging swings under the pergola and a hammock strung between the trees. S’mores optional but strongly encouraged.

Living room with a gas fireplace set into a stone surround, two leather sofas, a wall-mounted TV and a vaulted pine ceiling

04

Come inside and warm up

A gas fireplace set into stone, two deep leather sofas and a pine-vaulted ceiling. In winter the snow does something lovely to the view.

  • Bird watching from the porch
  • Dark-sky stargazing

The Buffalo River, twenty minutes down the hill

Welcome to the Ozarks. This is a peaceful getaway near the Buffalo National River, with easy drives to several trailheads, waterfalls and canoe launch sites. Spend your days hiking and paddling, then come back and soak in the hot tub under a brilliant dark sky.

Fall foliage here is spectacular, the bird watching is fantastic, and the sunsets from the back deck are unforgettable. The exact address is shared once you book — until then, picture a ridge above the valley, a mile off the pavement, outside Compton in Newton County.

Compton, Arkansas · Newton County · General area only — the exact location is provided after booking.Larger map
  • Buffalo National River

    Canoe and kayak launches on America’s first national river, with float trips to match every skill level.

  • Triple Falls (Twin Falls)

    One of the most photographed waterfalls in Arkansas, and a short, popular hike from the trailhead.

  • Hiking & waterfall trails

    Trailheads within an easy drive — bluff overlooks, hollows and seasonal falls that run hardest in spring.

  • Local general stores

    A few nearby stores cover the essentials, but plan the big grocery run before you turn off the highway.

  • Dark-sky stargazing

    Almost no light pollution. On a clear night the Milky Way is visible from the hot tub.

  • Bird watching

    The screened porch is the best seat in the house. Guests keep telling us the birding here is fantastic.

  • Beautiful and tucked away in the woods — the perfect peaceful and quiet getaway. We ended up enjoying every meal on the back porch.

  • We absolutely loved our stay! The cabin was beautiful and tucked away in the woods, making it the perfect peaceful and quiet getaway. We especially appreciated being able to bring our dogs along with us! The hot tub was a great bonus, and the back porch was easily one of our favorite parts — we ended up enjoying every meal out there surrounded by the trees. Such a relaxing, cozy place to unplug. We would definitely stay here again!

  • Still Point Cabin is a wonderful place to decompress. The back porch views at any time of day are amazing, but the sunsets are indescribable. We used the cabin as our home base for kayaking the Buffalo River. We loved the swings, hammock, and back patio! Bird watching was fantastic!

  • This cabin is the perfect location to launch for your Buffalo River hiking trips. The one-mile gravel road was easy to navigate at slow speed, even in a low-clearance sedan. The hot tub was perfect for looking up at the amazing night skies after a long day in the mountains. Kitchen was well equipped. A great stay!

Getting here — the honest version

The cabin sits at the end of a roughly one-mile gravel and dirt road. It is a little bumpy, but any vehicle can make it easily at slow speed — guests have driven low-clearance sedans up without trouble.

Multiple vehicles fit in the driveway, though there is no room for long trailers. You will be genuinely secluded out here, so plan your groceries ahead — a few local general stores are nearby for anything you forget.

Because you are out in the woods, an occasional bug or wood-roach may wander in during the rainy months. Sprays and fly swatters are provided. Wood-roaches eat dead leaves and rotting wood, and are a different creature entirely from a cockroach.
