Things to Know Before Your Stay

To ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience at Buffalo Boone Rentals in Parthenon near Jasper Ar, we’ve outlined a few important details and house guidelines for your stay. Each of our cabins—Buffalo Bungalow, Blame It All on My Roots, and A Frame View—is designed to provide a comfortable and relaxing retreat, and following these guidelines helps us maintain that experience for every guest.

Cell service is extremely limited so please make sure to have your arrival information with you before you arrive. You will receive check in information, directions and our house manual prior to your arrival.  Due to lack of cell service it may be difficult to reach out to the host. NOTE:  Please do not rely on GPS.  Use the directions provided.

After booking, guests will receive a detailed House Manual specific to their property.

Please save it to your phone before traveling.

Check-In & Check-Out
Check-in is at 4pm and check-out is 10am.  Please plan your arrival accordingly, as this allows our team time to prepare each cabin to the highest standard for incoming guests.  Checking yourself in early or checking out late will result in an additional charge if not approved by the host.  The cleaners are not allowed to give guests access to the property.  Please be courteous of that.  Thank you.

Getting Here

Please read the driving directions in your House Manual before leaving Jasper.

Cell service can be unreliable in the Ozarks, and GPS does not always choose the best route to rural properties.

We strongly recommend screenshotting your property's written directions before you leave Jasper and following those instructions rather than relying solely on GPS.

Each property has its own detailed directions and recognizable landmarks to help make arrival as simple as possible.

Pet Policy
Each cabin is pet friendly up to one dog only.  No cats.  We do charge a $150 pet fee per pet. We ask that all pets are well-behaved, supervised, and that guests clean up after them to help preserve the property and surrounding natural environment. Pets are not allowed on the furniture or in the beds.  If the presence of a dog is noted on the furniture as the result of excessive dog hair then an additional cleaning fee will apply.

Welcome to the Arkansas Ozarks

One of the best parts of staying with us is being surrounded by nature.

That also means wildlife and insects are a normal part of country living.

Keep exterior doors closed, don't leave food outside, and never feed or approach wildlife.

You may even spot some of the animals that make the Ozarks so special during your stay.

Before You Head Home

Our checkout process is intentionally simple.

Before leaving, guests are generally asked to:

• Start the dishwasher.
• Start one load of towels. 
• Remove food brought into the property.
• Securely bag all trash and place it in the designated trash area.
• Cover the hot tub.
• Check for belongings and chargers.
• Close and lock windows and doors.
• Follow the property's specific key or keypad checkout instructions.

Again, there is no need to strip the beds.

Our cleaners greatly appreciate these few simple steps because they give them a head start preparing the property for our next guests.

We're Here If You Need Us

Our goal is for every guest to have a wonderful 5-star Buffalo River getaway.

If you encounter a problem or something isn't meeting your expectations, please contact us during your stay. We'd much rather have the opportunity to help while you're here.
