Come relax and make lifetime memories at the Chateau on the Little Red, a 4,292 square foot luxury vacation home located on the breathtakingly beautiful Little Red River in Heber Springs, Arkansas. The Chateau was designed by renowned Arkansas architect Eugene Pfeifer Levy. It's architectural details include soaring ceilings, massive windows, exposed beams, and amazing wide-plank pine floors.
The Chateau's expansive windows offer spectacular views of the Little Red River. Three bedrooms (two kings and a queen) and three baths are located downstairs, each with a view of the river. A large fourth bedroom/bunk room (with six single beds) is located on the second floor. The master bedroom is immense. The master bedroom includes a separate seating area that looks out onto the Little Red River. The master bath has a very large soaking (jetted) tub, a separate shower, dual vanities and giant walk-in closet. We provide towels, wash clothes, make-up towels, and toiletries, as well as a hair dryer and a lighted make-up mirror.
The Chateau's main kitchen is a gourmet cook's delight. The Chateau, however, also includes an extremely nice complete second kitchen and two large gathering rooms, each with its own fireplace.
There is a large screened in porch and an enormous deck for taking in views of the river and relaxing outdoors. The lower deck (which includes a fire pit), and the private boat dock offer even more intimate views of the Little Red River and the setting's natural beauty.
The Chateau's grounds are nothing short of spectacular. Guests enter the grounds via a private gated entry, beautiful landscaping, stone pathways, and a large fountain complement the Chateau's lush setting. and a private boat dock. Large blueberry bushes line the driveway and parking area's wrought iron fencing.

Guests can enjoy hiking Bridal Veil Falls, Sugarloaf Mountain, Collins Creek, or the Mossy Bluff Nature Trail, kayaking or paddle boarding on the Little Red River, water skiing or cliff jumping at Greer's Ferry Lake, playing golf at the Red Apple Inn & Country Club, spending an afternoon at the charming Ruland Train Museum, shopping at Ellen Hobgood Gallery in downtown Heber Springs.
