Beautiful Home On The White River Next Door to Wildcat Shoals Public Access Ramp

This getaway is on the banks of the White River about 5 miles north of Cotter, Arkansas and about 11 river miles below Bull Shoals dam.

About 1 acre of property, you can relax on the bank of the river to fish or just enjoy the natural surroundings. Next to the property is a public access ramp to launch your boat if you wish. Rental boats are close by. If you wish, fishing guides can also be recommended to help you enjoy your stay.

You'll have everything you need to be comfortable sleeping, eating, and relaxing at a low price at our getaway. If you want to wade the river, just walk out the door, across the yard, and you're there. The largest shoals on White River is Wildcat Shoals about a 5 minute walk away.

The location on the river is ideal, away from the crowds, but close enough from the dam where more of the big trout hangout. About a 20 minute drive to Mountain Home AR, 30 minute drive to Buffalo River, 30 minute drive to Norfork Lake, and 20 minutes to Bull Shoals Lake.

It takes just over an hour to drive to Branson, Mo. As you can see, there is a lot of recreation and/or relaxation here or very close by.

Everything was wonderful! My sisters and I go on a trip every year. We take turns planning the trips. This is our 18th year, this location was perfect! The weather was great! Fishing was not successful, but fun. The Lewis's kept us in the loop all the way up to the trip date, we couldn't have ask for better hosts. I ended up with a veritable booklet of what to expect and things to do. SOOOOO much space. 3 count them 3 bathrooms!!! Many beds to choose from, beautiful sun room (where we enjoyed coffee in the morning, sunsets in the evening, and any other time during the day), Great deck overlooking the firepit (which we did not get to use, we just plain forgot, we were so caught up in chatting and doing other activities) and the Beautiful river, fishermen, boats, canoes, and the cliffs. We had plenty of room for all 4 of us, so restful and rejuvenating. We highly recommend for anyone to stay here. You will not regret it.

This was our 2nd time staying at this property and it was every bit as good as the first time. It’s right next to the boat ramp which is where we catch most of our trout and meet plenty of friendly locals and guides. This house is a fisherman’s dream.

Wildcat Property

This was an anual trip for me to fish the caddis hatch on the white river, first time staying in this wonderful home. Beautiful house with basement, main floor and second floor could easily accommodate a group of 8-12. The house presents clean and well kept as soon as you walk in. Overlooking the river, the lower patio walks out to a well kept yard with large fire pit. The decks above offer great views. This is perfect if you are fishing, walk out the door and down the boat ramp to meet your guide in 5 minutes. Really great place, I will stay there again for sure. The owners communicated perfectly via emails and txts. Thanks for hosting me this week!!

A lovely Weekend retreat.

The house and area were great for our family trip. The house had enough room for all eight of us. The location was perfect for trout fishing, and the views from the house were beautiful. This will definitely be a place for future family trips.

Beautiful place on the White River

The property was beautiful and very comfortable. It’s location is right on the river which makes for easy fishing steps from the front door. The wrap around deck was the perfect place to read and listen to the water. Would definitely recommend. Will be back!

Coming back!!

This was an amazing house and location! Our 2 year olds had the best time at the rock beach right in front of the house. It was next to a boat ramp for easy launching but still very private. We will be returning in the near future and hopefully for a longer time!

Second Time Around

We love this place so much we've booked it twice now! The view, the location, the house itself, and the hosts are the best. This time we were able to have a bonfire, watch a wedding next door (Beautiful View,) Easter egg hunt, and fish as much as we wanted. Tommy and Kim Lewis are very helpful and available to us if we needed. Hopefully we are blessed again to stay here next year.
