Hey! You’ve made it to The Phoenix Rising, where you will awake to 360-degree panoramic mountain and lake views while up in the clouds! Sounds awesome, right? But, please read the description in its entirety to ensure this special and unique place is for you!

The Phoenix Rising is an amazing three-story cabin that was mirrored after a fire tower. Because of its location, not only will you avoid extra town taxes and fees upon booking, but The Phoenix Rising also provides an incredible retreat from hustle and bustle of the big city. You get the best of both worlds! There are large picture windows on every wall so you can relax while taking in the 360-degree views and natural light. The deck on the second story has an outdoor living and dining space with a Weber propane grill for outdoor meals to take in the forest's beauty.

On the second story, you will find the indoor kitchen / dining area with seating for five as well as a full-sized futon for two. Going up to the third story, you will be amazed when you set eyes on the master bedroom suite, surrounded by windows with plenty of window seating to read a book while you take in the panoramic views. A wrap-around deck can be accessed from the master bedroom for even more breathtaking scenery of the Ouachita National Forest, Kiamichi Mountains and fog rolling over Broken Bow Lake.

Item of Note: The steps on this property provide a unique charm, though they may be steep for some. If stairs aren't your preference, you might want to explore our 2-bedroom cabin, The Summit House, which is all on one level, accommodates up to 5 guests and also provides breathtaking views.

The Phoenix Rising is entirely off-grid. We produce our own power, water (well), hot water and have our own septic system. We are 100% green and still have all the luxuries of home! Because we are green; however, we do have to choose which luxuries we would like to have. In our efforts to conserve energy, we have decided to opt out of bath and hot tubs in all of our mountain cabins. We also have have a filter, but the well water has iron in it, so please bring bottled water if this makes you uncomfortable.

Bedroom 1: King master with two Twin beds that double as window seating in bedroom on third story
Bedroom 2: Full futon for two in living area on second story
Bathroom 1: Private half-bath connected to master on third story
Bathroom 2: Full bathroom with walk-in shower downstairs

🚨 We realize that this is where most like to stop reading, but we ask that you please scroll a little more to review the important information for the drive in and more! 🚨

►✨ DRIVE IN / ACCESS
The mountain cabins sit 5 miles off of Highway 259 and is accessed by US Forest Service roads. It’s a beautiful drive and we oftentimes see white tail deer, turkey, and birds of prey including red tail hawks and various owls!

You will need a vehicle with some clearance as well as a bit of driving skill to make it in. 4WD and/or AWD is NOT necessary, but helpful.

► We strongly suggest:
→ a small, medium or large SUV
→ any size truck
→ a crossover
► We strongly advise against:
→ a minivan
→ a sedan or coupe

The first 2 miles of the drive are easy and you can drive 25 mph. The remaining 3 miles are slower and requires some attention. You will cross 4 or 5 small creeks on the way in. Water is rarely more than 4 inches deep. The roads are rocky and bumpy, but will not ever be muddy.

There are also grades up to 12% on gravel roads. This means you will travel up the mountain until you have reached our mountain top.

Don't have a vehicle that meets the requirements, but still want to visit? We have partnered with Marc at Red Dirt Car Service and have several happy guests that have already used this transportation service! Please send an inquiry for more information.

►✨ TECHNOLOGY & CELL SERVICE
The Phoenix Rising now has AT&T Internet and there is cell phone service! Verizon and AT&T work best, while Sprint and T-Mobile are limited. There are no TVs or cable. You will need to bring your own entertainment and pre-download your movies on your own device before arriving.
Disclaimer:Bear Creek Vacations is not responsible for reliability of internet or outages from service provider. WiFi is provided as a convenience only and is not integral to the use the property. No refund of payments shall be given for outages, content, lack of content, speed, access problems, lack of knowledge of use or personal preference regarding services.

►✨ BOATS, TRAILERS & ATVs, oh my!
Boats & Trailers: Please do not try to bring a boat up to any of our cabins on the mountain! You will likely regret it, we promise! 😉 All jokes aside, Beavers Bend Marina has slips that you can rent for your stay and it’s super convenient to leave your boat in the water. They can also provide a place to leave your trailer!
ATVs: You can ride straight into the Ouachita National Forest from our property! Please check with the US Forest Service for all laws regarding ATV riding. It’s possible for a group of riders to rack up several thousand dollars in fines.
Bear Creek Vacations will not be held responsible for any tickets, violations or accidents.

►✨ GRILL & FIRE
The grill is not directly wired into the house and we will provide propane. There is a fire pit. Please bring matches. Our cleaning service no longer provides firewood.

►✨ MAX OCCUPANCY
The Phoenix Rising sleeps 5. Due to fire marshal regulations and insurance purposes, the number of guests per cabin is strictly enforced. Additionally, our off-grid systems cannot sustain more than the max number of guests.

►✨ PUP-FRIENDLY
Maximum of 2 dogs allowed. No cats. Pet Fee: $150 per stay. Please review house rules and pet policy prior to bringing your pets to avoid additional charges.

Amazing views
Property was exactly as described. Especially about the type of vehicle needed to get to the property so make sure you read that part. You definitely need at least 8 inches of clearance. Parts of the drive up is bumpy but the reward is the view. Owners were amazing and quick to respond on any questions.

Excellent view, Beware the stairs.
Overall the cabin is wonderful. It is cozy, the views are wonderful and its very quiet. However the stairs are very steep. This cabin has 2 livable areas on the second and third floor. The exterior stairs are well lit and plank construction with about a 10 inch per step rise. The interior stairs have about a 12 inch rise and the only light swith for the stairwell is at the top on the third floor. Would not recommend this cabin to older folks or anyone with a knee injury. You will have to carry all of yiur luggage and groceries up on flight at least. Be aware and enjoy it for what it has to offer.

Stars so bright
Last minute trip with my three kids and our fur baby. The description was on point of the cabin and the roads. 5 miles and took us about 40 minutes to get to the cabin but so worth it . We were being extra careful and drove about 5 mph.The kids enjoy the off roads experience. Once we got to the cabin, the views was out of this world. We posted pictures and people was messaging me to get to the link of the place. Yes, the stars at night are so bright. Would love to come back again.

Andy and Debbie were excellent, friendly hosts, quick to respond if needed! Not only did they provide thorough and helpful information concerning the property and amenities but they also shared helpful information, of varied interests, for the surrounding area. The cabin, the views and night sky were absolutely beautiful, peaceful and just what we wanted for a quiet, secluded retreat! But we also took advantage of the many trails, the lake and nearby fishing when we chose to! Thank you Andy and Debbie for sharing it all!

Anniversary Getaway
We loved our stay so much we dreaded leaving. Please make sure to look at all the requirements for staying. You definitely need a truck, SUV, or Jeep to get to the beautiful oasis at the very top of the mountain. It was so peaceful and had gorgeous views. I would suggest bringing a few extra towels, hand towels, and wash clothes if you expect to stay over a couple of days. There isn't a washer or dryer, although there was a laundry mat in Broken Bow, I didn't want to use my time from viewing and exploring everything that Broken Bow offered. There is so much to do that we didn't get to do everything. However, if only two people are on your trip, I highly recommend renting the Slingshot Adventures. Their rates are reasonable, and well worth every penny to tour Broken Bow and the scenic route in. We are planning to make this our anniversary getaway from now on.

Short but Sweet Visit
This was a short few days visit for my wife and I to just chill out.. Not knowing what we were getting into, I only booked the short visit. We booth really enjoyed the house and beautiful views, and now plan to book a longer stay in the future. The trip up the gravel road after leaving the main highway is a little rough, but was highlighted in the advertising, so no surprise. I give this property my highest rating, and as I said, look forward to visiting again in the future. Richard (Aug 20-22, 2024)

The get away I needed.
I was looking for a true get away from reality and found it with this location. After a year of paramedic school, working as a first responder and not having a true vacation since before covid this was a much needed and long over due vacation for me. They have just about anything all you would need in the kitchen. Loved the couch and might have slept on it for afternoon power naps. The view itself is truly breath taking and pictures really don’t do it justice. The owner were generous with letting me bring my best friend of 9 years, had to pay a pet deposit but well worth it. I will be back that is for sure!
