The night before we were to leave to head back home, we planned to hike down from our mountain cabin to the creek that you could see from the deck out back on the following morning. We rented the cabin from Fireside Retreats in Mountain View, Arkansas, and I have to put in a very favorable review. What a fantastic get-away! Our cabin was an A-frame that was very modern and had all the amenities that you are looking for on a vacation.
The deck out back had an incredible view. We spent a lot of time out here just soaking in the sights. It was so VERY quiet. The cabin is secluded and away from any traffic. You could really take in all the wonders of God's creation out here.
The A-frame sleeps 6 people and has a loft up top. That's where the boys stayed. Down the hall to the front door was the bathroom on the right and master bedroom on the left, with access to each through barn doors.
The bathroom had interesting and cool fixtures.
The kitchen was modern and stocked with anything and everything you'd need. We cooked every single day.
So the final night of our stay, we were awakened by gentle, rolling thunder and then rainfall. We could hear the rain hitting the roof right over our heads. It was relaxing, soothing, and restful. That's exactly what you want in a vacation, right? We woke up in the morning, had coffee and a devotion and looked out on the deck. It was still raining. The hike down to the creek was off.
But you know what? That's okay. Checkout time was 11 AM, and we had three hours remaining in the mountains. We all climbed up into the loft and laid in bed, talking about the memories we made while watching the rain continue to fall. So nice. A perfect vacation only 8 hours away. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Arkansas - The Natural State.
Leviticus 26:4
“Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.”
