Beautiful home and property to celebrate thanksgiving! The cabin itself exceeded expectations in every way! Just wish we could have explored the immediate surroundings but totally respected property boundaries and history. Well stocked kitchen with accurate description. Very accurate directions and leather bound book at house filled with info! Very close to Ponca and river AND more hiking than we could fill in a week! ALWAYS a plus to come back to a hot tub and fire-pit!! Plenty of wood for sale in both directions from driveway. Thank you for helping make our week a success!!

Bella Casa was perfect for our family of 9. Plenty of space for gathering as a family. We enjoyed the fire pit outdoors and the convenient location. Many amenities for an enjoyable stay! The owner was very responsive if we had questions or any needs.

We had a great stay! The property is nice and the inside is very clean and well furnished. The yard could use a little attention, as the bushes were very overgrown and blocked the front of the house. Everything else was perfect! Beware, the road to the cabin is rough and a normal car will have trouble. I suggest a 4 wheel drive even though we made it fine in our Toyota Highlander. Listen yo the owner and arrive in the daytime.

We wanted a place close some hiking trails and this was perfect! Clear directions to find the cabin and clean. Did run out of toilet paper would be nice to have a spare roll in each bathroom instead of just 2 rolls total for 8 people. Loved the smores kit, week the kids did, haha. Lots of space, we had a great time.

We had a wonderful stay here! The kids enjoyed the hot tub, fishing, the cows/horses, making s’mores, and the bunk bed room. We were able to hike a couple of fun trails in the area. We didn’t want to leave!

Booked this trip for a guy’s weekend for myself and five friends. The cabin was exactly as pictured, extremely clean, and had everything we needed. The hot tub was clean and fully functional! It was also very close to the Steel Creek and Ponca put in points for the Buffalo River. We had an excellent experience and have nothing but good things to say about our stay.

Beautiful property! I noticed the master bedding was amazing quality. The bed was so comfortable. The hot tub was perfect! I would highly recommend this place for a getaway for a couple or a family. I extensively travel and have for many years. This is the first place that I’ve stayed at that I felt like the kitchen up to par. It was very nice to have a selection of cookware baking wear, and enough place settings for everyone to sit enjoy a meal together. Not to mention all the places around the property where you can sit at a table or get in a hammock, rocking chairs everywhere! The view with the wrap around porch! Heaven!.

Loved this cabin and proximity to Boxley Valley!
We loved the big yard for the kids to play and the space for our big family.
Best part, you’re at the end of a dirt road and have all the privacy that you want.

We enjoyed our stay in the cabin.
Cabin was clean, well maintained and comfortable.
We felt that for the length we stayed, the number of people we had and the price we paid they were skimping on the amount of toilet paper and paper towels they left for us. Be sure to bring extras.
Bring bug spray… the mosquitoes are bad.
Hiking was awesome but the water ways were all dry.
Colors were starting to change…It will be beautiful in October.
Enjoy!

Has Everything
This is a perfect place to stay for visiting the Buffalo National River. Great place for a family because the kids have their own downstairs and the parents can take the upstairs. The house is far better stockers than most rentals—tons of kitchen utensils and appliances, lots of towels, dishwasher, etc. Plan on a fun drive down the road to the house—best done in a truck or jeep. Five stars—we will be staying there again.

This is the second time we booked and stayed at this location but not sure if we will again. The downstairs bathroom toilet doesn’t work! The rain gutters leak like a sieve. Just about every joint leaks and the gutters are sagging so bad that the rain water goes everywhere. The gas grill has seen much better days, it needs to be replaced.

Owner suggested we get there during the day to find it easily - she wasn’t wrong! Very hard to find at night, easy as pie during the day. It is remote, which is what we were looking for, and near some very wonderful hiking.

Could use reading lamps in bedroom foe both sides of bed. Lamps in living room would be helpful . Kitchen counters were pretty dark—insufficient lighting. Pretty comfortable overall.

We had a wonderful weekend with family at the cabin. Everyone had plenty of room, beds were comfy, the cabin was clean and well stocked. The water was too low on the Buffalo River to tube or float, but we enjoyed some of the nearby trails, instead. It was our first time exploring the area and we are looking forward to coming back, and hopefully renting this wonderful property again!

The road leading to the property was very bumpy and rough as mentioned in listing. It is quite a ways off the Highway and i wondered if we were ever going to arrive. Thank goodness for the signs because if not for them i would not have continued on the road. Was somewhat disappointed upon arriving because the picture you have in the listing doesn’t really look like the actual property. All the shrubbery was way over grown and in need of being removed or cutting them way back so you could enjoy the wraparound porch. The house was great for our needs and we truly enjoyed our stay.

Weekend get away with friends
Nice place, just needs a little maintenance to a few locations and some work done on the landscaping. Door hand was very loose so we tightened it the tile in the downstairs bathroom is loose, and generally it could have been a little cleaner overall. Oh yeah the front steps are wooden and when it rains they are very slick. One of the guests took a bad fall not cool, just glad it was the youngest of the bunch.
