The Woodcreek Cabin  

Description from the owner

Looking for a romantic White River cabin with hot tub, porch fireplace, and great trout fishing ?

If you’re looking for a romantic getaway, complete with fishing on the White River, the Woodcreek Cabin is just the place for you. The Woodcreek Cabin is not your typical fishing cabin on the White River. It was built with honeymoons and anniversaries in mind. Here you can escape the stress of daily life and connect in a peaceful setting while having some of the best trout fishing in the nation available to you.

The native cedar cabin with its red metal roof looks charming from the outside, but step inside and you’ll know you’ve... chosen wisely. Special touches are everywhere personalized just for your arrival. Enjoy fine chocolates, great movies, plush bath robes and other things that we wish to remain a surprise for you. The crown jewel of the Woodcreek Cabin is the completely private back porch that floats in the leaves like a tree house! As the trees shed their leaves in the fall, the spring creek and all the wildlife that come to it become visible. The rocking chairs on the back porch are the perfect place to relax with your morning coffee or tea and the birds are usually more than willing to serenade you with their favorite songs.

In the evening, light the chiminea fireplace and enjoy the ambiance while you soak in your private hot tub. Then sink into the king sized bed made with fine linens for the perfect end to a perfect day. The kitchen is fully furnished with full sized appliances, microwave, coffee pot, tea kettle, mixer, blender, pots, pans, bake ware, dishes, silverware, etc. I enjoy cooking and have stocked the kitchens accordingly. You’ll also find pot holders, dish cloths, dish towels, dish soap, dish washing detergent, and a roll of paper towels for your convenience. If you need to stay connected to the outside world, we have wifi in the cabin. There is a TV (no signal) with a DVD and a small library of comedy & romance movies. The cabin has central heat and air conditioning.Read more

  Great place to stay the cabins were clean, comfortable and not what you would expect to find at a fishing lodge. The property is beautiful, well maintained, great location with lots of fishing close by. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils. Bed was very comfortable. The owners were very nice and very helpful. Fished two days with Chris he is a very knowledgable guide, taught us a lot and we caught lots of fish. What more could you ask for... We will be back

  We had a wonderful time during our stay. At one point, we decided we wanted to stay another night and they met our request and even moved us to the larger Creekside Cabin for our final day. We spent the majority of our trip in the Woodcreek Cabin and it was just what we had hoped it would be: clean, comfortable and relaxing! A chalkboard welcomed us to the cabin along with a dish of chocolates. The kitchen appliances were modern and the cabinets held all we needed. The King Sized Bed was comfortable with soft, clean sheets. They even provided comfortable robes. The true gem for us was the screened in back porch. We spent the majority of our time on the porch, in the hot tub or sitting around the chiminea. Sitting in the hot tub listening to the sound of the water in the creek below has become my new "happy place"!
  For the fisherman, the river was a just a short walk across the yard. Allen took a guided fishing trip with Chris. They spent the whole day on the water. Chris came prepared with the current water level information and shared his knowledge about trout and the river ecology. He knew the area and all of the hot spots. He asked what type of fishing I wanted: catching big browns, rainbows or small mouth bass. He then focused the day around helping me try to achieve my goal. Chris provided quality fishing equipment and even put the lures on the lines for me. I had never done that kind of fishing before and it is an experience I will never forget. What a day!
  The resort offers the best of both worlds. You feel like you are a million miles from the hustle and bustle of the world but are close enough to the towns of Norfork and Mountain Home for supplies and yummy meals. I took a trip to Mountain View and enjoyed the scenic drive. The next day we took a day trip to Calico Rock and the ghost town in Rush, AR.

  Anniversary

  We recently stayed in the Woodcreek cabin. This was my 3rd visit to Riverside Retreat. The two previous visits I spent in the Lodge. All three of my visits were wonderful. Woodcreek was clean and comfortable. Chris greated my wife and I shortly after we arrived. Our visit was relaxing and pleasurable. There were many nice amenities like the hot tub (outstanding), a gas stove on the screened in porch, and a grill. I would highly recommend a visit if you would like to get away and relax.
