We just returned from a three-night stay at this incredible little cedar cabin hidden away up in the Boston Mountains near Marshall, Arkansas. It was everything we wanted. If you are looking to disconnect, relax in comfort and convenience, breathe in the mountain air, and be close enough to easily experience the spectacular sights of one of the many beautiful stretches of the Buffalo River in a completely unique way, this is where you want to be.The cabin we chose was quaint & cozy, just renovated, and perfectly rustic but with all the modern comforts you need. And pet friendly!! There was plenty of yard for the dogs to run. The cabin was spotlessly clean, the shower roomy, and the beds were comfortable after long days of hiking, kayaking, and exploring the river. Even the little kitchen was fully equipped for cooking our own meals with an outdoor grill available as well. The owners were so welcoming and passionate about what they do, giving us a tour of the acreage where we got to observe emu, water buffalo, American bison, heritage cattle and even a Scottish Highland steer who is aptly named Big Red. The property feels entirely secluded and so peaceful, yet you are just a short, scenic drive away from the Buffalo River's best hiking trails, swimming holes, and floating launch points.

This is a quaint, cozy cabin was perfect for my short stay. I was traveling with 2 dogs, both over 50 lbs. It is not easy to find a place that accepts pets over 20lbs. LC was very kind and accommodating, I got to meet a few of the Buffalo but for me the real treat was petting the female emu. If you are traveling through Marshall and need a place to stay, check out Ratchford Buffalo Farm, they have 2 additional cabins to accommodate varying needs.

I was amazed at the history of the ranch. I feel like we left as friends. The owners were very down to earth people. Brought us firewood and hung out with us. We will return .

Great place to visit. The Mr. L.C. was fantastic making sure we had all we needed. The buffalo ranch was a joy. It was great hearing how the farm works. The cabin was very nice, clean and has everything you need for your stay. Can’t wait to go back.
