Three generations of love for one extraordinary piece of Arkansas forest.
Hello, We're John, Chris & Melissa
Our family proudly homesteaded this land sixty years ago, and the towering pines, cedars and oaks that shade every trail have stood here for many years as part of the Ouachita National Forest. We still live on the property and nearby, which means when you stay at Riverglen, you're never far from a friendly face who knows this forest by heart.
We invite you to bring your family closer to nature at this family-friendly forest retreat, bordering the Ouachita River and just minutes from Lake Ouachita. It's the place we grew up exploring, and we built these homes so other families could make memories here too.
From our family to yours, we look forward to hosting you.
John, Chris & Melissa
We live here, so we're always reachable through the app, by phone or text, and quick to help if anything comes up during your stay.
We tend the trails, keep the grass barefoot-worthy and protect this forest so it stays as peaceful for you as it has been for us.
Everything here is built for families, flexible bedding, safe spaces to roam and a calm, screen-optional pace that brings everyone closer.
We'd be honored to host your family at Riverglen. Reserve securely on Airbnb and we'll have the porch light on.
