Nothing is Impossible

Nothing is Impossible: Arkansas

Tucked away between two mountain ridges, in a beautiful spot in the Ozarks, this fabulous home is the perfect place to relax and reconnect with nature. Not only will you be surrounded by the abundant flora and fauna this part of Arkansas is known for, but you'll also be staying in a home designed specifically to have little or no impact on it. Built with sustainability in mind, it's a 'passivhaus' which is cleverly heated by the sun in winter. By day you take in the zen and pollinator gardens full of native plants, relax on one of three patios, do some yoga, work out in the gym or play bocce ball, Baggo or badminton on the lawns. In the evening, treat yourself to a long soak in the tub (with bath bombs made by the host, using herbs from the garden), then fire up the grill or whip up a meal in the stylish plastic-free kitchen. A luxurious retreat with solid eco-credentials and astounding attention to detail, this place ticks all the boxes. The hosts even have access to a local hiking and kayak company and can arrange for a massage therapist, private yoga instructor, grocery deliveries, and even for a helicopter to whisk you away on a scenic flight. The four-acre estate is a five-minute drive from Huntsville and half an hour from Fayatteville. Within thirty-five minutes you can be at Ozark Natural Science Center, Withrow Springs State Park and Hobbs State Park – not to mention all the trails and attractions closer to home.
