Spring River Cedar Getaway
Located halfway between historic Hardy and Mammoth Spring, this riverfront property combines solid construction with direct access to one of Arkansas’s most scenic waterways. The Spring River is fed by Mammoth Spring, the state’s largest and the 7th largest natural spring in the world, pushing out more than 9 million gallons of water per hour. Because the water stays a steady temperature year-round, it’s common to see fog rolling low across the river in the early mornings and late evenings, a familiar sight for locals along this stretch.
The property covers approximately 0.4 acres with two separate living structures connected by a large wrap-around deck.
Main house - 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms

The main residence offers 1,484 square feet of living space with three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. An open kitchen and living area form the center of the home, while eastern red cedar interior walls provide durability and a clean, natural look throughout.
Master suite building 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom
Across the deck is the second structure: a 680 square foot master suite with one large bedroom and one full bathroom. This setup adds privacy for owners or guests and provides flexibility for full-time living or vacation rental use.
Outdoor features include a 300 square foot covered porch and 1,250 square feet of wrap-around decking that links the buildings and expands the usable space. A sun deck on the riverbank offers a close connection to the water for kayaking, fishing, or simply sitting beside the river.
While the Spring River is known for its trout, multiple bass species, and walleye, it also supports a wide range of wildlife beyond fish. Along this stretch, residents regularly see wood ducks raising their broods, hooded mergansers, and diving ducks during cooler months. The river corridor is also home to beavers, river otters, and numerous birds, including great blue herons, kingfishers, ospreys, and bald eagles - all drawn by the stable flow and abundant habitat.
An outbuilding on the property provides convenient storage for tools, fishing gear, and river equipment.
Straightforward, well-constructed, and surrounded by active river wildlife, this property offers practical riverfront living or the perfect rental property in one of the most appealing stretches of the Ozarks.
