Old Factory Getaway is a private riverfront retreat nestled in the scenic Arkansas mountains along the bank of the Little Missouri River. It Sleeps 8 people with two full baths. Great Trout Fishing. The cabin is located a few miles from historic Murfreesboro, Arkansas, Crater Of Diamonds State Park and Lake Greeson.
Found at the end of Old Factory Site Rd just a few minutes drive from downtown Murfreesboro, the Henley family offers a secluded cabin on the banks of the Little Missouri River.
The "Old Factory Site" refers to a water
driven mill that was located just upstream from the cabin in the mid 1800's and
for a while there was a bit of a community, then known as Royston, at the site.
The
huge timber grid of the mill's 160+ year old foundation can still be seen in the
stream-bed a short walk away!
DO
BE AWARE! That the river can fluctuate as much as six feet when there are water
releases from Narrows Dam upstream. The river at minimum flow is quiet and
docile, but when high water hits it will be raging white water in about twenty
minutes! And even though there are rarely water releases on weekends that is not
guaranteed, so beware to stay close to the cabin's side of the river.
However, if you are white water enthusiasts - THIS IS your place to stay! A large rock out cropping at the cabin makes a perfect backwater take-out point!
The
cabin sits high on the rocky bank with a large shaded deck facing the water and
dense woods! On the deck you will find a BBQ grill and porch swing to relax in
while the river flows below.
Inside is room to sleep eight, upstairs and down, with a separate bedroom downstairs, pull-out sleeper sofa and two baths. A full kitchen with ceramic counter-tops, refrigerator, JennAir stove, microwave and coffee maker! You'll also find satellite and a flat screen TV.
