Saint Joe House | Awesome Home at Sky Hawk Ridge, a 185-Acre Refuge, ONE MILE to Buffalo River

3 Bedroom House in Saint Joe, St Joe

ESCAPE THE CROWDS to the Great Outdoors!
Sky Hawk Ridge is place of extraordinary beauty, a 185-acre natural refuge at the gateway to Buffalo River National Park. This stunning vacation home is only five years old and sparkling clean! Farmhouse Style on the outside, bright and open inside. The cabin is nestled in the forest and affords a lovely view of a wooded hollow and distant mountain peaks beyond. The expansive, private-park setting at Sky Hawk is shared with just three other cabins.
THE LAND
When you stay at Sky Hawk Ridge, you won't stay inside for long. Roam the land and discover the wonders of this beautiful landscape. Enjoy misty morning walks through dew-covered fields. Watch golden sunsets over Ozark Mountains. When you walk along Sky Hawk's long ridge, you see up the Buffalo River Valley to layered green hillsides and distant blue ridge lines. You see rolling meadows with sentinel oaks, cattle grazing in lush pastures, deep green woods -- nature's beauty at every turn.
Explore miles of private trails that wind through dense forests and beside crystal streams. Wildlife is everywhere -- deer, turkey, fox, owls, songbirds, and all sorts of woodland creatures. Be dazzled by spring flowers, blue summer skies, rich fall colors, or foggy winter mornings. Sky Hawk Ridge is a nature-lover's paradise all year long.
LOCATION
Sky Hawk is just off US 65 on the north side of the Buffalo River. Restaurants, canoe rentals and river access points at Grinders Ferry, Gilbert and Tyler Bend are less than ten minutes away, but at Sky Hawk you’re secluded and surrounded by natural beauty -- away from it all.
The entrance is on the Gilbert Road (Hwy. 333), just 0.4 mile east of US 65. Two-tenths mile from the entry, across from an open meadow, a driveway leads down through the woods to a metal-roofed cabin with cedar siding, naturally weathered to blend with the surrounding landscape.
Sky Hawk Ridge has 3/4 mile of park frontage, and the Buffalo River Trail is just steps from the property corner. The park trail leads about a mile down to a long, wide gravel bar at Shine Eye Bluff -- the perfect spot to picnic, swim, fish or enjoy a lazy afternoon. (Shine Eye is also accessible by road, a five-minute drive.)
ACCOMMODATIONS
Completed in October 2018, this comfortable home has plenty of room for your family or three couples. Stunning architecture and tasteful furnishings make the house memorable in its own right. High ceilings and large windows in every room let you see forest and sky all around. The interior is sunny and uplifting, like the great outdoors. There’s a two-story living room with a towering slate fireplace, a full-size dining room, two private bedrooms, and two spacious bathrooms with walk-in glass showers. In the sunny, tree-top loft overlooking the living room, there’s a queen size bed and sleeper-sofa with a comfortable memory-foam mattress.
There are four homes at Sky Hawk Ridge: VRBO listings 1005119, 2844541, and 3613801.) Houses are spaced 500-1,200 feet apart, allowing plenty of separation for everyone's privacy. The land is for all to enjoy, so feel free to discover what lies around the bend.

Summary: Breathed a sigh of relief as I walked in the door and could see that the house looked exactly like the photos. Guys left early each morning to fish the Norfork and I had the house to myself. Wanted a place to relax and unwind and this beautifully decorated home hit the mark. All of the relaxing things I imagined doing came to fruition such as sitting in front of fireplace on cool mornings and evenings, having the large sliding glass doors open and letting the breeze sweep through when the days warmed up, walking on the trails, and sitting on the covered balcony listening to and watching the wildlife. It was a lovely experience.

Summary: Loved another year at Sky Hawk Ridge. This was our first time staying at another cabin besides the ranch house and it was wonderful. Gorgeous views, private feel, wonderful walking trails and a kitchen with every amenity you could imagine. Always love our Thanksgiving time spent here and looking forward to more future memories.

Summary: Second time staying here. Beautiful luxe cabin in a very private location. Floated the river one day. Drove to Blanchard Springs Caverns for cave tour another day. Don’t miss the giant cinnamon rolls at Ferguson’s (2 minutes away). Skylark Cafe in Leslie has the best pies and cakes in the state (and huge selection). Always wanted to go to a drive-in movie theatre? One in Marshall just down the road.

Summary: Great location next to a few restaurants, smoked meats and store. Bathrooms and shower were great, beds comfortable and beautiful overall. Lots of wildlife viewing. Only thing we would change is to cut down more trees to take advantage of the view. Loved it, thanks!
