GPS: Latitude. 35-54-56 N Longitude 93-23-26 W "Be still, and know that I am God" is not something to be found in the bible (psalms 46-10). But it is also a command. God wants us to know him. As everyone who came here before us, can relate that out there in the everyday world it is very hard to be still. Thank you for this cabin for us to reconnect, be still and remember. He is God."

"We stayed from the 7th to the 14th. We had a blast. It is beautiful here. We love the quiet and peacefulness. It seemed like everywhere we looked we saw elk, it was amazing. We will be back and when we do we will stay here. Everything was great". A.W. We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It's beautiful, quiet, very relaxing, clean. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and watching wildlife. If the Lord is willing, we will be back." Thanks, T & B, Hector, AR. |
