### "Shangri-La" ! A Serene Retreat - Direct access to Trails just 7 miles drive !!

Welcome to your serene retreat nestled in the nature among Ouachita mountains for a truly rejuvenating escape.  
  
Only 7 miles from WolfPen Gap ATV/UTV trails & 5 miles from Talimena Byway, you will be in an excellent spot to enjoy the type of vacation you are looking for-whether it is a thrilling trail riding, hiking, bike riding on the byway type of trip or just relaxing with your family away from hustle & bustle of the day to day life type of trip; there is something for everyone!  
  
The house is located close to trails, so you can park your trailers in a large parking area on the property and drive your ATV/UTV directly from our house to the WolfPen Gap and other mountain trails within minutes.  
  
As you step onto our property, you'll be greeted by the melodious sound of Prairie Creek, gracefully flowing and forming a small waterfall just steps away from our doorstep. Imagine starting your day with a steaming cup of coffee or tea on the patio, serenaded by the symphony of nature.  
  
The home seamlessly integrates with its picturesque surroundings, standing at the foot of Star Mountain in Ouachita range where gentle trees whisper tales of tranquility. Step inside to discover a sanctuary adorned with Pella Windows, that invite the nature outside in, providing a sense of calm and wonder.  
  
Nature lovers will delight in our resident family of deer, who frequently visit the deer feeder on our property. These graceful creatures are protected here, offering you a unique opportunity to observe them up close in their natural habitat.

My dog loved the property, exploring and of course the daily deer running by to bark at!! We loved the peace and quiet. Get some firewood, a warm cup of coffee/cocoa, and sit on the porch!
