The three largest cabins are the Whispering Oaks Cottage (sleeps 11), the Hideout (sleeps 24), and then the Bunk House.

On the grounds of the Bunk House you'll find a volleyball court, horseshoes, a swing set, and a children's playhouse.

During the fall and winter, the Bunk House turns into a hostel! It's an inexpensive way to enjoy the quiet off-season.
All of the cabins are splendid but they're only half of the appeal to your trip.
The surrounding outdoor recreation is varied and just about endless. The adventure can start as soon as you walk outside, too! The River Trail is only a few yards away from some of the cabins.
River View Cabins and Canoes can also help supply your fun as well as your lodging.

You’ll have a holly jolly time when staying at The Candy Cane Lane in Prairie Grove.
A vintage travel trailer turned holiday wonderland, it’s decked out in yuletide décor from floor to ceiling.
Some might even say that there’s a tad too much décor – and that’s the point! It’s supposed to be delightfully tacky.
More specifically, it's made to look as if "your black-sheep uncle drank too much special eggnog and threw up vintage Christmas decorations all over this trailer."
The decorations aren’t the only features that help guests get into the holiday spirit, though. There’s also a typewriter for composing letters to Santa as well as a collection of classic Christmas movies and albums.
A stocking-adorned fireplace only adds to the seasonal vibes.
With a sofa that folds out into a full bed and two twin sofa beds, The Candy Cane Lane sleeps four guests.
It doesn’t have a bathroom or kitchen. However, both are just steps away, and that’s because The Candy Cane Lane Airbnb is part of Flamingo Springs, a 1950s Palm Springs-inspired trailer resort. The 50-acre wooded resort features six themed vintage travel trailers.

All guests share the bathroom and kitchen. The same goes for the on-site game room and pool.
