John Thomas Farmhouse ~ secluded valley + creek
Mountain View - House
Availability and prices
Accommodation
Description
WHAT WE LOVE ABOUT THIS PROPERTY:
We just had Fiber Optic Internet installed - way out here! Total privacy for creek exploring and star gazing - back to the farm with luxe (and smart) comforts that are all newly remodeled. Except random tractors, there is zero light or sound pollution, and no other domiciles around. At arrival in the valley, it feels really good. You are out there. It can be unnerving for some. Others, like us, crave just this. 15 minutes from shopping and medical in Mountain View, Arkansas, this is multi-generational homestead acreage – still in the family (John Thomas).
~ There is abundant wildlife; turkey, deer and even a shy bear in area. Did we mention cows? There are cows on the property. Cows go poop and "mooo." - they are carefully selected non aggressive cows.
~ The whole house is on a well. It's delicious. But this also means that its clarity can change and it has minerals - minerals can leave film. It is filtered and very drinkable, unless after heavy rains. We also stock 2 gallons treated water under the sink for drinking.
~ Exterior cameras in place at this property. Facing the driveway, side yard, and front yard.
PROPERTY LOCATION:
Gently rolling gravel road last two miles that any vehicle with 4 wheels can handle. The cattle are fenced away from the house but you will pass in their grazing field to access the creek as well as the driveway into the farmhouse. It is about 30 minutes from our world class Blanchard Caverns Recreation area and OK Trading Post with horse trail riding. It is 15 minutes from Angler's and Jack’s Resort restaurant and trout Fishing guide services and 15 minutes from shopping, medical in the town that you will fall in love with, MOUNTAIN VIEW ARKANSAS.
Other area attractions include North Sylamore Creek - for top notch swimming and smallmouth bass fishing, Ozark Folk Center State Park, Loco Ropes Course (tree top adventures), Arkansas Craft School - all within about 15 minutes.
ABOUT THE WATER:
Rocky Bayou is not really a bayou but a spring fed Ozark creek. Its level varies with rainfall, and it runs year round. While it is not known as a fishing destination, we’ve certainly seen smallmouth bass in it. Trout will travel up it in winter floods. There is a special dedicated area for catch and release. It is not located directly in front of the house. We will point you to this very near area about a 5 minute walk away. It is great for hanging out along side the gravel bars AND splashing in - varying pools and riffles - bring some creek shoes. It is not floatable. For more water adventure, go to the White River - Anglers' and Jack's Resort rent John boats and trout guide services economically. Boats can take you to confluences of other creeks where you can comfortably swim also. Really fun!
PROPERTY ACCESSIBILITY: There are steps to enter the main level of the property.
PETS: This property does NOT allow pets (owners are allergic and cows and dogs don’t generally do well together).

We had a nice, relaxing weekend. The house is in a pretty and peaceful spot. On a clear night you can see the stars well. The creek nearby is beautiful and was running well due to recent rain. We could hear it from the porch and even though one day was pretty rainy we still enjoyed sitting out on the screened in porch. The house was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The hosts provided the directions and details for check-in just as they promised.

I can’t say enough good things about our stay at the John Thomas Farmhouse. Sarah with Ivy Vacations was wonderful. She was personable, knowledgeable and quick to respond. The farmhouse has all kinds of board games, cozy seating, throw blankets, comfortable beds, anything you might need to cook in the kitchen, a large capacity washer and dryer - you name it. Clearly, the owners put great care into making this cabin a perfect respite from the cares of everyday life. We have 2 teenagers, and it was really nice to spend time together in such a gorgeous setting. The charming farmhouse, gorgeous surroundings and excellent customer service make the John Thomas Farmhouse a wonderful stay!

-Some sort of indoor fly catcher. It’s a farm so flies are to be expected inside and out. There were a lot of them in the house though, so just something to help combat them. -Shampoo and conditioner in the bathrooms. You are very clear that it isn’t provided, so that’s good. It would just be really handy. Something from the Dollar Tree would work just fine. -Nightlights in the bathrooms. -Thank you for providing a vacuum, a dish drainer rack, extra trash bags (and they were the good kind, not the cheap, flimsy kind - yaa!) - basically thank you for making it easy to clean up after ourselves! :) -You have great cookware, mixing bowls, etc. in the kitchen. I love the pretty Pioneer Woman crockpot. -You have excellent cleaners. Everything was very clean! |

One of the best rentals we have stayed in! Beautiful home, well stocked with plenty of items needed for our stay. The creek was very nice. I would definitely take note when they recommend water shoes in their items to bring. Our toddler enjoyed seeing the cows throughout the day, along with occasionally seeing a few other wildlife. We enjoyed our weekend getaway with family!

My family truly enjoyed our stay. The John Thomas farmhouse was one of the best rentals we’ve ever experienced. Everything was perfect for a fun, quiet, restful vacation. The location was our kids’ dream, as they saw a variety of fun animals (including a road runner, a wild turkey, cows and calves, turtles, and a sweet doggy), and they had fun swimming and exploring right out the front door. The house itself was beautiful and so private. We needed for nothing! We were able to bring in groceries and cook and grill every meal. Just a lovely place!

This is truly a little gem farmhouse. It's not a stay on some fancy farm, so be prepared for your country surroundings. If you wonder down to the creekaround the land, you will be greetedran off by country critters. Bring bug spray to protect your legs from ticks & chiggers. Do not think the cows are pets. They want nothing to do with you, and should be left alone. There is a local dog named "Bear" who will visit you, and he loves to fetch and play with kiddos. He will steal your ballfrisbee. lol.. The house is cosey and clean. Coffee sitting on the front porch in the early mornings was my favorite part. Yes, there's a creek, but this is the country. It's not a resort with curbside accommodations. We enjoyed leaving it as is by just dipping our feet in the cool spring-fed water and respecting the nature around us. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Overall, it was a wonderful and peaceful stay. Just what we needed!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Ivy Vacations and the John Thomas Creek farmhouse. I’m still heartbroken over leaving and already planning out next trip back. First, Ivy Vacations offers impeccable customer service. They are quick to respond, courteous and think of everything! They checked on us during a storm and kept an open line of communication via text message throughout our trip which was great! We are a little high-maintenance when it comes to accommodations and the farmhouse exceeded our expectations. We wanted to unplug, spend time alone in nature and have family bonding time while also feeling comfortable.. the farmhouse provided just that and more. The creek is SO close and perfect for exploring. We took our daughters on scavenger hunts through the woods just outside the house. The fishing spots are just a short drive and it’s absolutely stunning and remote. Morning coffee on the front patio rocking chairs while the kids play in the fenced in yard, lunches on the screened in porch, bonfires, stargazing (amazing on the farm), etc. i could go on. We had some rainy days and our girls played out in the rain while we sat on the covered porch and watched. There’s plenty to do inside too- there are puzzles, games, and even books! The farmhouse is sparkling clean and the set up is perfect. Creek Chairs, camper chairs, a BOB jogging stroller, a wagon, and outdoor games can be found at the farm house. The kitchen has everything you need (even a double oven and huge sink) and the grill is fantastic too. Looking out at seeing the cows and land was so magical… and you can hear the creek flowing when on the patio too. We were all in heaven and this trip was one of our most favorite! We will be back! Thank you Ivy Vacations!

We were looking for a place to unplug and unwind and this place was beyond amazing!!! A two mile drive down a dirt road leads you to a beautiful view of the valley and roaming cows. There is gurgling spring a little walk from your back door and the perfect place to sit and read while your kids play in the clear water. Not far down the road there is a place to fish. The house is fenced off so no need to worry about roaming cows leaving huge gifts where your kids might play. The house itself was so clean, tons of seating, comfortable beds and dinner in the screened in porch was an added bonus. Four chairs for the fire pit and four to use down at the spring. WIFI is spotty but only a problem if multiple devises are being used. Mountain View isn’t far but keep in mind the gravel road takes a little time because of the ruts and occasional dog that jumps into the road. We loved this house and hope to be back again.

Enjoyed morning coffee on the screen porch listening to the cows moo. Lots of family time reading books, watching movies and playing games. If you like to go junking, there are several flea markets on Main Street. Highly recommend this place for unplugging.

Our family trip was everything I hoped it would be! I have an autistic daughter who can usually be quite patient around things she isn't comfortable with like crowds and loud noises, but really thrives more in open and natural environments that are quiet and isolated. She had a blast swimming at the creek, and although her cousins around the same age whined about the water being cold, spiders, and little fish swarming around I know they had fun too. The cousins talked about wanting to go back even though they didn't act like they enjoyed it haha. We had a doggy visitor while there that all the kiddos fell in love with. One of the kids taught her to sit and shake in brief period of time! I asked the host about the dog's history and we ended up bringing her home with us to Texas with their approval after conferring with the locals. Annie Oakley is naturally a perfect dog for our home, and we may register her as a service dog at some point. The home was just as cozy as you would expect from the photos, and the creek is deeper than you would think. There's areas you can kind of glide around laying flat on your stomach and grabbing rocks to move around by hand, then a quick drop off that hits me around chest level and I'm 5'5"". So there's areas you can stroke around more mixed with wading areas. There's a couple big rocks right between the drop off for kids to cling to between the shallow and deeper areas. I was told it hadn't rained in a while when I showed up, so I wasn't expecting any deep areas at all. Pretty good mix between shallow waters for kids vs. deeper swimming.

We absolutely LOVED our weekend at the John Thomas Creek Farmhouse. It was the perfect location for a short R&R / Birthday getaway. The access to the creek on the property was a huge PLUS for this trip. Normally, we'd have to drive to get to the Sylamore Creek, but here, we were able to walk right out the door and down to the creek / Rocky Bayou. We actually got to meet one of the family members that the land belongs to - he was super sweet and looking forward to catching up with him again the future. Thank you for such a relaxing weekend getaway. We will DEFINITELY be back!

We spent most of our time down at the creek which is so nice to have just steps away from the cabin. The cabin itself is beautiful the pictures don't do it justice. Would definitely recommend and be back.

This house is incredible! It seemed too good to be true from the pictures, but I can assure you it’s the real deal. The location is stunning. Be prepared for peaceful, relaxing days in the creek and frog and cricket serenades at night. Plenty of moos as well. We loved every second of it. We found the house exceptionally clean. Truly. Their cleaning staff does a great job. Oh, and the beds were so comfortable! I’m very picky about my mattress and the one in the master bedroom was just right. Also, the staff at Ivy was excellent. They were quick to respond to questions or issues. My family and I can’t wait to go back. Highly recommend.

We went here to celebrate my Dad's 60th birthday and it will definitely be a trip to remember! The John-Thomas Farmhouse is beautiful and the creek was a perfect place to relax and cool off. Unfortunately, a storm came the first night we arrived and knocked out the electricity, which meant no water since it is on a well. However, we made the best of it and still had a great time. We ended up leaving early due to the circumstances but plan on making a trip back in the near future. The host were generous and offered to help make our stay as pleasant as possible while we were there.

I just loved this place! It is located off the beaten path, very private and quiet and beautiful! I went for several walks around the property and spent a lot of time at the creek. We cooked some really good meals on the grill and enjoyed the fire pit. We did venture out to do some hiking and check out a few local attractions near Mountain View. My favorite spot was the screened porch, for my morning coffee. This home is beautiful and clean and very well managed. I really enjoyed the peace and quiet, just perfect for us!

Last minute trip with my husband. We enjoyed the farmhouse for our getaway from the hustle and bustle. Check-in procedure was very easy and the staff at the Ivy Office were great. When we walked in the house was glistening. They do an outstanding job of cleaning. The amazing creek was our favorite part of the trip. We needed this to just relax for a few days. Looking to book again in the fall and bring our friends!

The John Thomas Farmhouse was the perfect property for our family. The online photos can't possibly show the beauty of the property or the comfort and careful touches found in the farmhouse. The house was well-equipped and comfortablethe owner thought of everything you'd need for a few days OR an extended stay. The house was spotless, beautifully decorated and the beds were great-so much so, that I contacted the owner to ask about the mattresses! If you need access to the outside world, the internet connection was amazing and if you are stuck inside, you still have access to streaming services and comfortable furniture. While the farmhouse itself would have been enough to elicit our repeat business (we've already booked again for longerin May), it was the property that sealed it for us. The house is just a short walk from the creek. We spent many hours in the evenings on the porch listening to the water (it's that close). We also spent most of our days fishing in the creek. We brought lunch down to the water's edge and had a wonderful time. My son caught multiple trout (use corn!) and a few perch. The setting of this place is idyllic. We ventured out to Mirror Lake one afternoon and it was only about a 40 minute drive. The hiking there was great but we actually had much more fun on the property. We roasted marshmallows in the fire pit and ate most of our meals outside in the screened in porch area. This would be a great place for a single family getaway or a trip for friends/multiple families. Again, we already booked for May and will possibly be booking for July. This property is amazing!

Terrific farmhouse for a secluded vacation! We stayed for 4 nights during Spring Break 2021. Everything in the farmhouse in brand new, it was roomy and sparkling clean. Nice cookware, appliances, a brand new grill, and all the little touches provided for by the management staff, who are very attentive, responsive and focused on providing a wonderful experience. The lodging was excellent, but what surrounds it is what makes this place super special. A terrific creek (the rocky bayou) that our little girls LOVED playing in, beautiful hills and trees, lots of cows to watch come and go, and great fire pit to sit outside, listen to the frogs, and see the stars. Oh and no people! It was such a treat to be able to get away. Thanks to Ivy Vacations for making our stay a very memorable one that we really enjoyed

Trip Details: 2 People, 2 Nights, No kids. We chose this location specifically for stargazing and it did not disappoint. The description of the location is completely accurate so be sure to read thoroughly before booking. The house was spotless and had everything we needed for a private weekend. Google maps directions worked perfectly. This is a farm. There are cows. Creek access is through a cow field but we had no issues at all. The creek was beautiful. We opened the windows in the house and listened to all the sounds of nature. We would for sure book here again. The property management company was amazing to work with and answered all of our questions quickly. Stone County is a dry county so if you'd like to partake I recommend bringing your own alcohol. Also, most restaurants in Mountain View only take cash or checks and close pretty early so plan for that as well. This is truly a place away from it all in an absolutely beautiful location. Well worth it!

WHAT WE LOVE ABOUT THIS PROPERTY: FIBER OPTIC INTERNET - way out here! Round Bottom Roost is a very happy cabin filled with a great collection of local photography, artifacts and books. With complete privacy, it has sweeping views across the pasture to the tremendous limestone bluffs of the White River. It is 3-minute drive or 0.8 miles to public river access. IMPORTANT:: ~ if you only need access to the main house with 3 bedrooms (sleeping six) we will refund $50/night – after your trip. You will not have access to the bunkhouse sleeping area. You can distinguish the bunk house in the photos by not having wood siding / paneling on walls. Plus it has bunk beds pictured. ~ recommended All Wheel Drive vehicle for the driveway but not required - you'll be okay with good tires and front wheel drive. **Please be sure and click through all the photos and read the full description as we think it will answer most questions you have in advance or will need prior to packing up and heading our way. But please, feel free to reach out with any questions. We love them. Rental prices are dynamic. This means that the prices vary – determined by software – dependent on area inventory, day of the week, and time of year. You will not know your true price quote until you enter the number of people and the dates you are interested in. PROPERTY LOCATION and ACCESSIBILITY: The private cabin is 9 miles to Mountain View and about 15-20 to most attractions that draw thousands here year-round. There are 100+ cabins in this valley with full and part-time residents. From this privileged position, you can see almost none of them. It is mostly paved all the way to the property with the last half mile dirt/gravel. The driveway and parking area can fit about 3-4 vehicles - with some jockeying around. Or two very comfortably in front of the garage. Sorry. Access into the garage not allowed. There are steps to enter the property. Pictured. PETS: Max 3. We love dogs! And they are welcome here for an additional fee of $85 for up to 3 dogs - a flat fee for the duration of your stay. *Heads up: sometimes your fur babies are not included in your quote on certain booking sites! Please send us a message to let us know your pup(s) will be accompanying you during your stay. See further rules in the rental agreement.
