50+ acres of serene and private river access and comfortable lodging. This family and pet friendly property includes Nature Trails, amazing fishing and wildlife, epic swimming holes and so much more! The Illinois river, in Tahlequah, offers year round respite and fun for people of all walks of life. Watch floaters pass by on gravel beach and enjoy the peaceful tranquility of the fall and winter months. Unplug and retreat in the sounds of nature. This property is a uniquely authentic experience. Our cabin is simple, yet very comfortable. It will be difficult to find another location, with the amount of private river access we provide. You can sit on the front porch, with a drink of choice, while enjoying quiet and private river views and listen to the sounds of nature. Get lost in the woods, take trail walk, find the river cane forest and/or the wet weather waterfalls or just relax with a good book. The property features an Outdoor Shower, with hot water, to wash off after a day at the river. *Note this off-season we have made many improvements to our property! We have added high speed fiber optic internet service! We have installed a water filtration system to deal with the heavy sulfur in our well water and an on demand tankless hot water heater, for a endless supply of hot water after a day on the riverbank! We are committed to honoring our guests feedback and making the necessary adjustments! Guests will have private access to an expansive gravel bar and the river activities that accompany it, I'm sure you can use your imagination. There are 50+ acres to explore, but please stay within the property boundaries and don't trespass onto the adjacent properties. This is meant to be a private experience for you and your family/friends, but we will be available to get you settled in, make sure your needs are met and in the case that something important comes up. We are located on the sleepy side of the Illinois River. It's secluded and quiet, with little to no traffic. We are right across the street from the Nickel Preserve, a 15,000 acre Nature and Wildlife Preservation area. 15 minute drive to kayaking, canoes and rafts and water-slides. 1 mile walk or drive to the famous "Bathtubs", Goats Bluff and Pebble Beach some of the most gorgeous spots on the river. Your neighbors will be deer, squirrels, and rabbits. You can access transportation such as Lyft and Uber in Tahlequah. The property is not in the vicinity of public transportation, as you are a bit off the beat'n path. Please note that we have a king size bed downstairs as well as one upstairs in the loft and individuals with mobility issues should plan to use the downstairs sleeping accommodations.
