Very friendly!

It was a quaint little cabin with wonderful hosts. We bought steaks from them and grilled them and they were so good! They took us on a tour of his farm and it was very cool and just good ole country folk. We enjoyed our stay! We fed the animals and even got cuddles with some.

Exceptional Stay

The entire place is absolutely stunning. Regardless of which cabin you pick, you'll enjoy your stay. You can tell the owner LC loves what he does, and it shows. From the exotic animals to his family's own breed of cattle, my family had an amazing time with the tour. I highly recommend this place

Spring Break Trip

Very cute little cabin with everything you would need. LC and his wife are the nicest people and we loved the tour they gave us of the farm. We loved the hot tub on the back deck. Beds were 50/50. One bed was great, but the other was a little too hard for our preference. We would definitely come stay again, its a great little cabin and a beautiful area!

Great location and excellent property managers

This was a very fun way to spend Thanksgiving as a family. The owners are wonderful and gave a tour of the farm and we even got to feed animals. We are planning to go back in the summer when we will be able to spend more time hiking exploring and going to the river.

We had such a wonderful time with L.C. on his ranch. We felt like a kid being at a petting zoo for the first time. You didn't know whether to pet the emu or the water buffalofirst.

Great place to stay.

The cabin is located on a working Buffalo Farm near the Buffalo National River. The host was very friendly and helpful. The interior walls and ceiling are made of cedar and are very pretty. It was a great experience staying there. I would recommend this place to anyone and will consider staying there again. John and Brenda

Weekend at Buffalo

We had an absolutely unforgettable stay at this charming little cabin by the Buffalo River! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by the most wonderful hosts L.C & Robin, who went above and beyond to make our experience special. They took us on a delightful tour of their property, sharing fascinating stories about the history of the area. Our kids were beyond thrilled to have the opportunity to feed the animals, and the hosts were so kind and patient in letting them interact with the animals up close.The cabin itself was cozy, clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The peaceful surroundings made for a perfect escape, and we loved the quiet, natural beauty of the Buffalo River area. Our family made memories that will last a lifetime, and we are so grateful for the warmth and hospitality of our hosts. We can’t wait to come back! Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with a personal touch.

Very fun!!

Clean and beautiful, yet a rustic hunters-themed cabin. The cabin is isolated and private. The hot tub was a ton of fun! We were treated like royalty on the farm tour. LC was a gracious host, well educated and safe. We actually did feed Buffalo by hand!! I highly recommend a stay here. Bring all the food you need, and don’t forget briquettes & lighter fluid for the charcoal grill!

Buffalo Ranch Cabin Rentals

Buffalo Ranch Cabin Rentals are a superb experience and their hospitality is wonderful! We have stayed their twice and will be going back in the fall. I highly recommend them! The cabins are very clean and very well furnished. The tour of the ranch and animal experience is so much fun! The owner is there and helps with anything you need! The hot tub was fun also!

Private & Quiet

The cabin is very clean, private, and quiet. The kids love the hot tub! This was our second stay at this cabin and the owner has stopped by to check in and make sure everything was ok and see if we needed anything. He always offers to show us around the Buffalo Ranch (we haven't had time to do so yet). Even though the river was too low to float, we had a great time!
