Discover the perfect balance of serenity and convenience on this secluded homesite, a stone’s
throw from the iconic Buffalo National River. Just north of the US Highway 65 bridge and across
the river from the Tyler Bend Park Visitor Center, the property is at the center of the Middle
District of the river, where portions are floatable year-round. It’s halfway between two river
access points – Grinder’s Ferry and Gilbert – making it the perfect home base for frequent river
adventures. Shine Eye Bluff, one of the best swimming holes on the Buffalo, is only 2.9 miles
away.
Enjoy home cooked meals at Ferguson’s Country Store and Restaurant, a short walk from the
property. There are three more restaurants nearby, plus a Dollar General Store and other
services in the town of St. Joe, just 4 miles down the road. There’s a full service grocery store in
Marshall, a scenic, 15-minute drive from home.
This lot is one of eight thoughtfully selected building sites on a small, wooded ridge, with access
from a private drive off the paved road to Gilbert, an historic river town dubbed the “Coolest
Town in Arkansas.” The secluded enclave of homes is bordered by Sky Hawk Ridge, a 160-acre
nature reserve with four stunning and widely acclaimed luxury vacation rental homes – among
the finest accommodations near the Buffalo. Thoughtfully drafted covenants and restrictions
will preserve the native landscape and ensure high quality design and construction. A property
owners association will maintain roads and common facilities.
Here you can build your dream retreat in a forest clearing where the beauty of nature and
wildlife abound. A professional custom home builder is available to craft a unique residence of
your own creation, or replicate one of the exquisite vacation homes at Sky Hawk Ridge. Water
and electric service will be provided to the property line.
The immediate area offers endless opportunities for outdoor recreation and adventure. Fish or
float the Buffalo River and immerse yourself in its rich, natural wonders. Explore hiking and
biking trails in the park and nearby wilderness areas to experience breathtaking views from
bluff-top overlooks and along clear, mountain streams cascading through lush, green canyons.
