As advertised, Rock House Cabin at Petit Jean is a good place for a family to enjoy the natural beauty of the mountain top. The home is cozy, historic and eclectic, reflecting a vibe appreciated throughout the past century, yet boasting modern convenience and comfort.
Many great opportunities for outdoors, especially proximity to the Rockhouse Cave, west YACC overlook and CCC overlook, are close by. The stone fire-pit at the home is nice, as are the porches on either end.
Shopping is limited nearby, so pack in what you'll need. The kitchen is more than adequate for prep, with the majority of small appliances ready to use. If you'll be doing a lot of cutting/chopping, bring your own chef knives and board. We did and were thankful for it. The inside dining area is great, with seating for 8 and boasts a nice highchair for the little one.
All in all, we recommend Rock House Cabin as a place for families who value being together and love the Natural State.
Shalom!
