Moonshine River Retreat- Broken Bow/Hochatown- 2bd

The Moonshine River Retreat Cabin located in Rock Hill Park is minutes from Beavers Bend State Park and bordered by the Ouachita National Forest. The cabin’s name was inspired by the area’s rich history and culture of making Moonshine during the Prohibition period.

The interior of the cabin is both rustic and serene, with all of the amenities you might expect from a vacation home. At 1100 square feet, the cabin features a full sized washer and dryer, two full bathrooms, and two bedrooms with queen beds. It sleeps 4 comfortably. The living area boasts a 40” flat-screen television and cable TV. The dining area is separate and looks out onto the back porch and the beautiful forest.

The kitchen boasts brand new appliances, including a large gas range and oven, microwave, refrigerator with ice maker, dishwasher, coffee maker, blender, and even a crock pot for easy meals. All you need to bring is food: utensils, cookware, dinnerware are all provided. The wrap around granite countertop, lighting fixtures, and unique decor make this kitchen, and cabin, a show-stopper.

The cabin is pet-friendly to crated pets. The porch is 850 square feet and includes a hot tub covered with woodsy views. Plenty of outdoor seating is offered in both the front and back areas. Parking is spacious enough for ATVs and boats. A large fire pit, horseshoe pit, and gas grill make for plenty of family activities to enjoy right outside your door.

In fact, you’ll be minutes away from the Beavers Bend Resort Park (with a restaurant, museum, and horse riding trails, even a kiddie train during peak months) the Broken Bow Lake and Marina, Beavers Bend Wildlife Museum, hiking, biking, and ATV trails.

For the anglers in your group you have both the lake and the gorgeous Mountain Fork trout-fishing river (stocked regularly) with areas for the novice as well as the serious fly fishermen. If you need equipment, there is a complete fly-fishing outfitter nearby. In the summer months, the river has a float area, and several kayak and canoe rentals.

Whether you are looking for adventure or a relaxing and scenic getaway, the Moonshine River Retreat is sure to meet, and exceed your expectations.

Beautiful cabin but..
We came to Broken Bow for a wedding and stayed at Moonshine River for two nights. From all of the great reviews we were very excited to stay here. The cabin was beautiful as the pictures depicted but upon entering, it smelled musty. And no one slept well the entire time because we were all very congested. I don't know if it was something in the cabin based on the musty smell, but the air vents were filthy. Also only half of the jets in the hot tub worked and all of the towels in the bathrooms were dirty. The TV in the bedroom was extremely frustrating and apparently whoever stayed there before us also could not control the TV with the remote, because we found it unplugged and that was the only way to turn it on and off. Also the wires were all just hanging from the TV with the cable box precariously balanced on top. I'm glad I did not have my grandchildren with me or that would have been an electrical hazard. May I suggest putting a dresser under the TV? And all of the end tables, night stands, etc., needed to be dusted and wiped down. With the extra maintenance and cleaning fees we pay when booking, I expected better! I hate that I have to leave this negative review. It is the first negative review I have ever left on VRBO. I hope it is taken seriously and these issues are addressed because it really is a beautiful cabin and location. It just needs a little better cleaning and maintenance.

Just what we needed!!
We needed a place that was affordable, secluded and quiet and Spacious for our dogs to roam free off leash. It was a beautiful property just the right size. The amenities were great. I would recommend a new mattress, though I had to sleep on the couch some. But it is a great stay. Excellent location. Close to everything. .

Loved the location!
The cabin was so cute and clean. Beds were comfortable. Location was perfect and pretty secluded. We stayed for 2 nights. The only disappointing part was after the first night, we had no hot water, so showers were ice cold.

Pretty good
The cabin was nice and clean , my only complaints are the bedding and beds weren't good quality so it was hard to sleep and they had no coffee which we thought was weird. Great location and easy to access. Our neighbors were extremely loud and had flashlights shining through to our cabin so it was hard to enjoy our fire.

We loved the location of our cabin. It is on the end of a road with lots of privacy. We loved the caving, the hot tub was great, and it was overall in a great location! The winery down the road we highly recommend!

Amazing 25th Anniversary Get-Away
We spent our 25th anniversary at Moonshine River Retreat. The cabin was so beautiful, clean and comfortable. This was our first visit to the Broken Bow/Hochatown area and we really enjoyed it. We plan to come back. I would definitely recommend eating at Shuck Me and visiting the candy stores. Can’t wait to visit again.

Cozy Clean Cute Cabin
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Moonshine River Retreat. It is located at the end of the road and felt like our group was on a private piece of land. It was perfectly clean and offered all the amenities that we needed. It rained one day we were there, but still got to enjoy the outside and wild life because of the patio (front and one in back with the hot tub). Perfect for a weekend get away with the family or small group retreat. Would highly recommend!!
