Bellawood Resort 1 Lakefront Cabin with Boat Slip - Unobstructed View!
Guest rating: 5.0 / 5
Overview
This lakefront cabin sits in Higden, Arkansas, on the shores of Greers Ferry Lake, a 40,000-acre reservoir in the foothills of the Ozarks known for its clear water and rocky, tree-lined shoreline. Styled as a mountain lodge with modern touches, the cabin is the top unit of a two-unit building and comes with its own boat slip, one of the few private rentals on the lake to offer this. Two-story windows and a large covered back deck frame unobstructed lake views, and guests are just steps from the dock for swimming, fishing, and boating.
Rooms & Layout
The cabin has two bedrooms downstairs plus a large loft bedroom upstairs, sleeping a maximum of 8 guests total. Bedroom one has a Tempur-Pedic king bed with a private bathroom and tub/shower, while bedroom two has another Tempur-Pedic king bed adjoining a hall bathroom with tub/shower. The upstairs loft holds one king bed and two twin beds, and hotel-style shampoo, conditioner, soap, and towels are supplied throughout.
Living Space & Kitchen
The two-story living room features a couch, loveseat, and recliner arranged around a large flat-screen TV mounted above a two-story gas fireplace. The kitchen has granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, an 11-foot peninsula bar seating 4, and a dining table seating 6, plus fiesta dinnerware, pots, pans, silverware, and glasses for self-catering. A full-size washer and dryer are located off the hall on the first floor.
Amenities & Recreation
Amenities include air conditioning, heating, free Wi-Fi, free parking, cable TV, a balcony, patio, outdoor grill, ironing board, and a smoke-free interior. Boaters can launch less than a mile away at Devil's Fork boat launch, and Lacey's Narrows Marina, three miles off, rents boats and Jet Skis for those without their own watercraft. The lake itself supports swimming, fishing, boating, water skiing, scuba diving, and sailing right from the property's dock.
Dining & Location
The cabin sits near the Edgemont Bridge, about a mile from the town of Greers Ferry and 10 miles from Fairfield Bay. Nearby dining options include Janssen's Lakefront Restaurant about a mile away, Tacos Don Nachos, Las Playitas Greers Ferry, Paradise Pizza Company, The Boar House & Pizza, and Bentley's Restaurant and Buffet, all within a few miles. Golfers can reach Indian Hills, Mountain Ranch, and Tannenbaum courses within roughly 7 to 16 miles, and Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport is about 96 kilometers away.
Best for
This cabin is best suited to families or small groups of up to 8 travelers seeking a lakefront retreat with private boating access, thanks to its own boat slip, dock, and proximity to Devil's Fork boat launch. It also appeals to self-catering travelers who want a full kitchen and laundry for an extended stay, and to outdoor enthusiasts drawn to fishing, swimming, water skiing, and nearby golf courses.
Travel tips
Bring your own boat or arrange a rental early, since Lacey's Narrows Marina (about three miles away) is the nearest place to rent a boat or Jet Ski if you don't bring your own. Note the strict 8-guest occupancy cap when planning group size, and factor in that the entrance requires climbing half a flight of stairs. For meals out, Janssen's Lakefront Restaurant is only about a mile away and is called out for its desserts, while Greers Ferry town and its services are also roughly a mile from the cabin.
