There is a cave and spring on the property. Beautiful panoramic view of the White River is just steps across the street. Rock bluff and view of pasture is visible from the very large elevated deck.
My name is Steve Alford. I have lived in Memphis all my life but have always had a presence in Arkansas. I spent hundreds of days on Lake Hamilton in Hot Springs. I fell in love with Northwest Arkansas and would ride my motorcycle in the area a couple of times a year. I also made a yearly cabin trip to the area in the fall. That is where I saw and fell in love with House on the Rock. I purchased it in June 2015 and will spend my spare time turning it into a showplace! I always welcome any suggestions you may have after your stay there.

Enjoy the Rock Bluff and Cave on the property. Directly across the street are the White River views and City Rock Bluff. The elevated screened patio has two doggy doors and a beautiful view of the property.

We had a great time at house on the rock!! We walked and explored all over! I put some corn out below the screened in porch and saw deer every day! The only complaint ( from the girls in group) was the low water pressure. Other than that it was an awesome place to stay!!
This is a very peaceful, private, and relaxing property. As we drove up there was a deer right next to the home eating. We had the privilege of seeing the waterfall below the property and it was absolutely fantastic (you must have rain to have a waterfall). There is plenty of room to explore and you might even catch a glimpse of a wild turkey or two. If you want a nice family fishing spot drive to Blanchard Springs Caverns and fish at Mirror Lake. They stock it regularly with rainbow trout and we had a blast. Everyone we met there was very nice and more than willing to share their fishing secrets. Don't forget your fishing license if you are over 16 and tour the caverns while you are there. The Calico Rock museum is very nice and they have many different products made by local artisans for sale. Jewelry, pottery, wood products, and a lot more great hand crafted items. We had an excellent lunch at Babycakes Bakery and Café. The owners are very nice and it's a really clean place. The fall colors were amazing this year and we came at a great time to drive down to Boxley Valley and see the elk herd. They were beautiful and worth the hour drive. Our stay was great, we had no problems and hope to come back to visit soon.
The location is beautiful, the inside of the house is beautiful, comfortable, well maintained. Me and my dogs loved it. The only downside is the lack of cellphone service. Mine (T-Mobile) didn't pick up until I drove 30 miles from the house.
I'm sorry you had problems with your cell service. Verizon works well at the cabin followed by AT&T. The town of Calico Rock is only 5 miles away and you should not have had any problem there.
Just spent a weekend trout fishing and relaxing in a real cool cabin overlooking the mountains.This was a great find on a rainy cool weekend everything about this place made it a great place to relax We built a fire in the fireplace which was amazing Thank you for sharing your retreat with us
We couldn't have asked for a better house in which to stay for our getaway. The house is on a beautiful property and we so enjoyed exploring much of it. It was still a little warm for October, and dry, and we were a little early for the leaves to be changing, but it was obvious that if there had been rainfall, there was a waterfall that we would have loved to have seen. The stars were magnificent!!!
The house was perfect for our needs. The kitchen is well-equipped, the beds are comfortable, the wifi even worked!!
Thanks for your restaurant recommendations, Steve. We visited each of them and were not disappointed in the least. It was a great week!!
This is a very lovely cabin and great for groups large or small. The kids and dog we brought didn't stop running from the moment their feet hit the floor at breakfast to when they all collapsed at night. Plenty of room for everyone to get enough space and an amazing kitchen with huge table to allow everyone room to enjoy a family dinner together. We roasted marshmallows and hot dogs in the fire pit outside and the beds were super comfortable. The cabin stays cool as well both upstairs and downstairs (anyone with an upstairs knows how hard of a task that one is). There were a few negatives involving not much water pressure (we made it work and its not the end of the world) as well as another incident with our group, but the owner of the house made everything ok and was super helpful. He works with you to make things right (if life happens and anything does go wrong that is) and all 8 of us are very happy because of that. We will be returning again in the fall, and hopefully we manage to get a spot. (lol) Seems everyone is figuring out just how amazing this place really is.
