Photos and Description of this Arkansas holiday house 5 bedrooms and a loft, 6 bathrooms, Sleeps up to 10

The Forest Gate rental is a 3800 sq.ft. house situated in a park-like setting, secluded and private. The large log and cedar home is beautifully furnished and comfortable even to those with discriminating tastes. An outdoor cooking area under the pine trees has three large picnic tables beside a small pond suitable for casual gatherings. Inside the home has a rustic yet elegant feel. A baby grand piano graces the main living room, perfect for sing-a-longs in the evenings. A large rock fireplace anchors the sitting room in the log cabin and inspires curling up with a good book. Although remote, the house is easily accessible from the highway and only 14 miles from the town of Mena, where there are many opportunities for casual dining. Take the scenic Talimena drive accessed from Main St. in Mena or drive one hour east to Pencil Bluff and rent a canoe from a local outfitter.

Also FOR SALE, the Forest Gate vacation rental is surrounded by the beautiful Quachita National Forest 13 miles west of Mena, Arkansas. You can take the Scenic Talimena Drive which runs along the mountain ridge directly above the property at The Forest Gate vacation rental. This area has unique wind currents above the Talimena ridge which attract hang gliders to the area. There are trails in the forest for horseback riding and there are rugged mountain bike trails as well. A seasonal antique car show arrives in Mena and the Christian Motor Cycle Association has it's headquarters just south of Mena. You can drive east about an hour to Pencil Bluff and rent a canoe with one of the river outfitters. The old train depot in Mena is now a museum worth dropping in to see. For the casual golfer, the Mena Country Club offers 9 holes of golf. Fishing is available on the Mena Reservoir. Or you can just nature watch or read a good book during your stay and at night, stargaze.
