The story

Built slowly. By hand. On purpose.

Tucked away in the rolling mountains of Northwest Arkansas, just minutes from the emerald green waters of Beaver Lake, AR, Blue Skye Cabin is a peaceful, hand-crafted retreat designed for rest, adventure, and connection. Built in 2025 by Cory Walker of Cory Walker Custom Cottages, this 883-square-foot getaway sits on 13 private acres of beautiful Arkansas mountain forest — offering space to breathe, unplug, and unwind.

Wake up early and go fishing on Beaver Lake or the nearby White River. Spend midday boating or dining at nearby Starkey Marina. In the evening, explore the vibrant, eccentric mountain town of Eureka Springs, AR — just 20 minutes away and beloved for its incredible food, artsy charm, and nationally recognized mountain biking trails.

We are a short drive from Northwest Arkansas National Airport (XNA), a hop, skip, and a jump from the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, AR, and less than 2 hours from the popular entertainment hub of Branson, MO, and iconic outdoor destinations like the Buffalo National River. This cabin is perfectly positioned for both quiet escapes and unforgettable adventures.

Whether you’re here to relax by the lake, ride world-class trails, or explore Northwest Arkansas, we invite you to settle in and make this special place part of your Ozarks experience.

“This cabin looks even better in person. The hosts truly thought of everything.”

“We loved our stay at Carrie's Blue Skye Cabin! Carrie was a great host and was very responsive. The cabin had everything we needed with a well stocked kitchen, lots of towels, convenient laundry, and thoughtful touches. The property is so beautiful and peaceful, tucked away in the mountains, but close enough to Eureka Springs. We enjoyed having coffee or drinks out on the deck and listening to the wildlife. It was a perfect escape in the woods. We hope to come back!”

“This place is truly a gem. The location is beautiful — secluded and out amongst the trees. It was a well-stocked place (plenty of towels!) with all the needed amenities. The host, Carrie, provided clear instructions and communicated all we needed to know. My family is already talking about when we can return!”

“BlueSky cabin was the perfect weekend getaway! The cabin is nestled deep in the woods, and provides peaceful views of the night sky. The cabin was well stocked and in pristine condition. Carrie was fantastic, and when we had an issue with the Bluetooth speaker, we immediately got a response and assistance! We will definitely be back”

“This place is tranquil, private, and peaceful, yet 20 minutes to Eureka. Beautiful location that feels remote. It does have a boat turn around/parking if needed. Inside is great, rich fresh pine smell. If you're a diver, 10 minutes to the dive shop. We will visit again”
