More rustic than anticipated. Beautiful view but no access to the water. We never did find the place to go where we were led to believe we could get to the water. The host was not available at all. Had to call a number to check in and never did see anyone who claimed to be the host or caretaker. It was relaxing and peaceful.

Quaint & Homey

We had a nice stay at Cabin #5 at Wagon Wheel Resort. It was only a short 5 min drive from the marina which was perfect since we spent the majority of the weekend boating on the lake. Beautiful grounds and gorgeous view of the lake. The host was sweet and friendly as well. We will return for sure! This lake is unkind anything we have ever seen.

We spent two nights at the Wagon Wheel Resort and really enjoyed the stay. The cabin was cute and nicely furnished. The owner Jenni was very helpful and was always available when needed. We will definitely stay here again and will refer our friends to this resort.

Very laid back and relaxing

This was a great place for our 2 day layover traveling from Ohio to texas with a boat. The lake and wagon wheel was a great pick and made it so enjoying. Wish it was for longer. Maybe next time stay longer. I recommend staying at wagon wheel and jenni was great helping us out.

Quiet, Relaxing, Helpful

We enjoyed the location. Easy to get to get around. You can visit quite a few places within 30 min drive. The hospitality of the area is fabulous. Jenni was super pleasant and helpful providing suggestions & input for our ventures out. We enjoyed the cabin and are looking at the other options available on site for our next visit.

Couple Lake Getaway

Everything was perfect. My husband and I went for a long weekend. It was a small cabin that had everything you need, right by the lake but close enough drive to town to grab a bite to eat or for gas or whatever else you might need. And Jenni was the perfect hostess. We took our boat and there was a boat ramp 1/4 mile a way. This was our first time at Norfork Lake and I still can’t get over how clear and beautiful it was.

Great spot for a quick getaway!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The cabin and the property were clean and well kept. Nothing fancy, but everything you need to enjoy yourself and the property owners were friendly and helpful. Check in was easy and flexible (thankfully! a wreck had the interstate shut down and we arrived several hours later than our intended time!). We had planned to bring our dog Biscuit, but a last minute vet problem kept him at home. We will defiantly bring him next time. He would have loved it! Pat & Diana

Great Visit

The property is located at a great spot on the lake. The walk down to the water is a challenge. But it’s doable. Close to marinas, shopping centers, restaurants, and parks. The cabin isn’t big but we slept four just fine...with two small dogs. The owners are great. Definitely a fun time.
