About this farm stay rental

Our 100-year-old farmhouse has been lovingly renovated and will accommodate 6 guests. The farmhouse retains its character through its screen doors, heart-pine wood floors, period furnishings, and wood stove. Interior furnishings were chosen to provide the plain and simple comforts of the early 20th Century.

The back porch rockers afford practically the same view today as they have for one hundred years. The house, old barn and outbuildings create a setting for you to not just see the valley, but actually be a part of it.

You can be as active as you wish—or as inactive. Watch the sun wake up the valley, experience the amazing vistas of a light-free night sky, hike the many trails along the Buffalo River. Canoe, fish, cook, read, visit, explore or just laze around. This farmstay offers many ways for you to enjoy the Upper Buffalo River and the woodlands, pastures, streams, and bluffs that make up the historic Boxley Valley.

Accommodations include two bedrooms upstairs with a full bath and one bedroom downstairs with attached full bath. Common rooms include a sitting room upstairs, a living room downstairs, an eat-in kitchen, and two covered porches.

James Larkin Villines and his wife, Eliza, who built the home, did without electricity or running water until 1942; now, however, guests can enjoy central heat and air, telephone, and wifi.

We require advanced notice of at least 48 hours.

This was my second stay at the farmhouse and It was just as great as before. They have a Lovely Mule in the enclosure next to the house and we fell in love with him. The house is very nice and clean and the kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils and pots and pans. We were unable to get the gas grill to work, but other than that, it was PERFECT!!!

The Boxley Farmstay was a wonderful getaway for our family. It was relaxing, quiet and scenic. We enjoyed floating down the beautiful Buffalo River and also sitting on the backporch reading and enjoying the scenery. Would love to return! Thank you!

This property was perfect for 2 couples spending a long weekend exploring the nearby Buffalo River National Park and its hiking trails. The house is just as advertised and very quaint! The flowered wallpaper in the sitting room and the rocking chairs on the porch reminded all of us of our childhood visits with our grandparents. Yet, the modern kitchen with all its amenities, the very nice en-suite master bedroom and the super fast and reliable WiFi kept us firmly rooted in the 21st century. Because we were 2 adult couples traveling together, we especially enjoyed the privacy we had with the en-suite master bedroom located on the ground floor and the other bedrooms and a separate toilet and shower upstairs. Tons of room to spread out! Maggie is an excellent host and responded to our queries promptly and thoroughly and the check-in process was a breeze. We highly recommend Boxley Valley Farmstay for your next Arkansas getaway.

Property was nice and well kept. We shared it with a little kitchen mouse that came to visit. Disappointed in having to pay a cleaning and service fee that added 27% to my bill. I have not seen these add-on charges in other places I have stayed. Not certain we will do this again.

We stayed in beautiful Boxley Valley for the April 8th solar eclipse event. The farmhouse is charming! We had plenty of room and loved exploring the property and the general area. There were dozens of goldfinches and bluebirds hanging around. We heard owls at dusk and watched the cows meander from one pasture to another. It was just magical - loved every moment of it. Our host Maggie was always very responsive with any questions I had. I would totally recommend staying here.

This was our 3rd time to stay at the farmhouse. Great location as it is very close to our favorite hikes and the river. We will be back!

This house is cozy. We felt like we came to grandmas. Everything we needed was supplied. The big back porch with four rocking chairs were perfect! Our morning coffee was spent out there as was our evening wine. The steers came out to greet us at the fence. We could hear the Elk. The bluebirds were plentiful. Just a peaceful beautiful weekend. It’s the top pick out of our 10 trips we’ve been on together.
