The Bear Claw in Hochatown | Luxury Cabin with Pool & Forest Setting

The Experience

The Bear Claw is a beautifully remodeled luxury cabin backing up to the Ouachita National Forest, offering a peaceful wooded setting just minutes from Broken Bow Lake, Beavers Bend State Park, and the heart of Hochatown. With four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and plenty of space to gather, it is a comfortable fit for families and groups looking to relax while staying close to the area's favorite attractions.

Inside, soaring ceilings and warm wood finishes give the open-concept living area a classic cabin feel, with plush seating, a stone gas fireplace, Smart TV, and Sonos sound bar. The chef's kitchen features stainless steel KitchenAid appliances, marble countertops, a spacious island, and dedicated coffee station, while four comfortable bedrooms are spread between both levels with Smart TVs, luxury mattresses, and fine linens.

Outside, the expansive covered deck extends the living space with an outdoor kitchen, gas fireplace, Smart TV, and plenty of room to lounge or dine surrounded by the trees. Spend the afternoon in the 20' x 20' year-round pool, unwind in the covered eight-person hot tub, play cornhole, or gather around the private fire pit, with a circle drive and generous gravel parking making it easy to bring along a boat for days on Broken Bow Lake.

Nature & Environment
One of the most memorable parts of staying in a Broken Bow cabin is being surrounded by nature. Because this property is located in a wooded setting, guests may encounter wildlife and seasonal elements during your stay.

Deer, squirrels, raccoons, turkeys, and other native wildlife are commonly seen throughout the area. The cabin is professionally treated for pests, though occasional insects such as spiders, mosquitoes, beetles, ladybugs, or wasps may still appear, particularly during seasonal transitions or rain.

During spring months, pollen from surrounding pine trees may collect on outdoor surfaces despite cleaning efforts before arrival.

Keeping doors and screens closed whenever possible helps maintain a comfortable indoor environment throughout your stay.

We encourage guests to enjoy the peaceful surroundings while remaining respectful of neighboring cabins and the natural environment. Sound travels easily throughout the forested area.

What To Bring
We recommend bringing groceries, condiments, cooking oils and seasonings, personal toiletries, coffee and creamers, bug spray for mosquitoes and ticks, ice, and firewood with fire starters for the outdoor firepit.
