Covered Bridge Cabin
Covered Bridge Cabin situated over Adds Creek in Ponca, AR. was built by Terry and Linda Clark. Since the mid-1800s there have been four generations of Clarks in the Boxley Valley and Ponca area.
Covered Bridge Cabin is situated just a few minutes from two main river outfitters: Buffalo Outdoor Center and Lost Valley Canoe. Both provide canoes, kayaks, rafts and shuttles to the National Buffalo River, as well as grocery and hiking items.
In addition, you have easy access to natural wonders and area attractions that folks come from all over the country to see, such as Hawksbill Crag, also known as Whitaker Point. You are surrounded by hiking trails to wondrous views, waterfalls and wildlife, like the area's elk herds, which you can also view from your car. For every hiking trail, there seems to also be a trail for horseback riding.
