Just wondering if you guys could advise me on a place that has nice, affordable cabin rental for a family of four on the upper Buffalo around the Ponca area.

Thanks,

Kevin

For canoing the upper section of the Buffalo River, you should bring your family and stay at Pruitt's Historic Stone Cabin. The cabin is located some two miles east of Jasper and 17 miles from Ponca.

The cabin sits on on a hundred+ acres alongside the Little Buffalo River, which opens other easy canoing options. There is a great private swimming hole for picnicing or canoe lauching right on the property! Located within about two miles of the Buffalo River, you can easily drive, bike, hike, or canoe to the Buffalo.

Pruitt's Historic Stone Cabin is very clean, comfortable, and well furnished. The cabin has two bedrooms, one bath, living room, fully equipped kitchen and separate dining room; sun porch with fireplace, day bed and futon. It can sleep up to nine.

This traditional Arkansas stone cabin rents for a great price, and the the owners are real nice folks!

Let's see... a private river landing/launch/swimming/fishinghole; deer in the fields in the mornings; 100+ acres of privicy; room for nine; located close to Pruittt's Landing and rents out at an unbelievable price...

What more could ya' ask for???

Wow, you are one heck of a salesman. I will have to check that place out. Is there any good smallie fishing on the Little Buffalo?

I stayed at Summerfield Cabin in Boxley. Very nice place. From what people have written in the guestbook, lots of elk are able to be seen around there, although we didn't see any.

It was kind of an exploratory trip to check out the upper Buffalo's fishing opportunities. First time I had seen any of the Buffalo west of Hwy. 7. I think for this time of year, I was probably a little too far upstream for fishing. I went and checked out the Ponca bridge, Steele Creek, and Kyle's Landing.

I didn't get to do any hard-core wading, so there may have been some awesome pools isolated somewhere along the way that I didn't get to see. Beautiful scenery up there.

For float fishing, what would you guys say would be the farthest upstream, most productive possibility on the Buffalo in the late spring/early to mid summer time period?

Thanks for the info,

Kevin

My cousin has a nice new cabin just off Hwy 65 a handful of miles from the Buffalo. It is on 10 acres. Very private.

He rents it. PM me if interested and can get you details.
