We had so much fun staying here! The backyard is amazing! We planned to roast s’mores outside but it rained. The kitchen was full stocked and we enjoyed all of our stay! :) The owner/manager is fantastic and very helpful!

Perfect Retreat
We arrived on 10/9/21 and the place was gorgeous! Exactly as described, peaceful and tranquil. Would stay again in a heartbeat. Do know that if someone is staying above you, you hear EVERYTHING; especially the 5 kids that were running around upstairs until 11:00 p.m., but we were outside by the fire and it was not that bad. This place gets an A++++ from us and we will be booking again!

Three Days in Heaven
We arrived at BRL in the afternoon, after receiving clear and easy-to-follow instructions from our hostess. We were immediately wowed. The view was absolutely breathtaking! We entered the lower level of the lodge, and it far exceeded our expectations. We took day trips from the lodge, and enjoyed the Buffalo River as well as the Yellville Turkey Trot Festival. One day we drove to Eureka Springs. We found the lodge very clean and comfortable, and quite impressive. We met a lovely family who was staying in the upper level, but we were not forced to interact with them as the lodge is large and spread out. My only regret about the entire trip is that we did not have a larger group with us. It is easy to see that the BRL would be a perfect destination for a family reunion, retreat, or friends get-together. It is located remotely, but only a short drive from any amenity you might need. I am sure in a few weeks, the fall colors will provide a stunning view. I cannot recommend the BRL strongly enough. It is an ideal destination for anyone looking for a little R & R.

The property is beautiful
The property was well taken care of and was located great for day Buffalo river access. A little disappointed that the hot tub is out of commission and wasn’t mentioned as I was looking forward to it, but the jetted tub in the master was phenomenal. Overall very impressed with this rental.

Birthday trip
My birthday trip. We always try to go somewhere in Ar. for a couple of days during this time. I was interested in colorful leaves and thought St. Joe would be a good place to visit. We live in The river valley in Ar. They were much prettier in St. Joe and we visited the old ghost town in Rush nearby. Lots of access to the buffalo river too. Comfortable and nice place to stay.

Beautiful!
The view was beautiful and the property was clean. That bathroom 😍 is gorgeous! There were even booklets describing local things to do. The owner is also environmentally conscious which I loved! Be aware that there will likely be people staying upstairs. They were quite loud through the night but we didn't mind because we were having a good time as well (we didn't report it to the owner as it didn't bother us so she was not given a chance to address it. You should speak to her if you have any questions about it). Just be aware that it may not be the best option for a quiet, private getaway unless you know you have the place to yourself. I'm sure the owner would be able to work something out. She was very responsive and kind! I would definitely recommend booking.

Brown family vacation 2020
First vacation with 4 children; our 2 and 2 foster children. Great central location to do the outdoor activities we were wanting to do like fishing, floating the river and hiking. Nice facilities to be able to cook meals and save money with the bigger family.

Perfect
The property was beautiful and very clean. The property manager Perry and Sabrina were very helpful. They helped us load up the kayaks and gave us recommendations on the best access points for the river.. The owner Nicoletta was easy to get in touch with and made sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be staying again.

Scenic relaxation.
Gorgeous and spacious property. Rare perfect view of the night time sky. The hot tub was relaxing. We topped the night off by the large fire pit at the base of a landscaped waterfall.

Weekend get away
The property is beautiful and was very clean. There is noise if the top of the lodge is rented out. We had an issue with the noise after 11p.m., but it was taken care of immediately. The hot tub was definitely an added bonus and the grounds are beautiful. We would definitely rent again.

Beautiful, private
Beautiful and roomy accommodations set on 64 acres of beautiful, hilly terrain. My wife and I enjoyed a walk down the gravel country road, looking at spring beginning to bud out on the trees and flowers, as the sun set over the western horizon. The lodge is quiet and private, especially if you rent both the upper and lower levels, and we enjoyed the large kitchen, the jacuzzi bathtub in the master bathroom, and the new digital fireplace hanging on the wall beside the bed in the master bedroom.
We had the pleasure of meeting the owners and 3 of their kids who were staying in the upper level. Nicoleta and Tony were great hosts...really made every effort to make sure we were well taken care of.
The lodge is off the beaten path, but still within 10-15 minutes of the Buffalo. We are hoping to go back when the weather is warmer to stay there while we float the Buffalo!
