The Best Historic District Victorian Cottage in Eureka Springs

Experience Eureka Springs the same way residents did over one hundred years ago...in this lovely home in the very heart of Eureka's Historic District.

Built in 1885, this cottage is in the National Register of Historic Homes and is one of the finest examples of the many beautifully restored Historic Victorian homes of this era. It is furnished with many period antiques.

You will find that The Bodie House is a charming Victorian cottage with all the gingerbread trim, located in the heart of the Historic District. You are mere steps (next door) from the trolley stop or a short stroll to the historic downtown for fine dining, unique shops, boutiques and art galleries. Should you decide to venture out for some hiking, horseback riding, boating or fishing, all are found close by. Eureka Springs is surrounded by lakes, rivers, streams and even caves, all just minutes from the Bodie House.

This Historic Victorian cottage is beautifully furnished including a full kitchen and laundry room. Hi speed wireless internet, flat screen high definition TV, DVD, and CD/FM/AM stereo add to your enjoyment. The private deck overlooks and has a full view of the Eureka Springs Valley and the Christ of the Ozarks. A friendly front porch is perfect for people and parade watching. Or, if you like, just enjoy a quiet moment experiencing the natural beauty of Eureka Springs at the Bodie House.

A dining room offers a cozy place to enjoy your meals or a game of cards. There is plenty of room to spread out and relax at The Bodie House.

The Bodie House is a great choice for couples or families. It is the perfect choice for four. Two bedrooms with queen beds.

Paradise

Loved my stay in this quaint vintage home, in my fav town ever!! However, one of the beds has a very hard mattress on it and my daughter had a hard time getting comfortable. I loved sitting on the front porch…so peaceful! Also, my daughter stated the kitchen sink water was not on, therefore she didn’t wash the one glass that was used.

Great girls weekend retreat

Cute, quaint house. The house was built over 100 years ago but they have made it look nice while keeping the historical authenticity. I would stay here again. A couple of things to be aware of, bedrooms and back patio are down a skinny set of stairs (keep in mind it was built 100 years ago). Next time I would bring smaller suitcases to get down those stairs. Also, there is no dishwasher. That was fine with us but some people might not like that. The house was clean and nicely decorated. They have even added an extra area with a shower and sink to allow for more space to "get ready" in the morning. The back patio is nice but there is not much of a view. The front porch is also really nice. Best part for those visiting downtown Eureka Springs is that the trolley stops right outside the house. Check in process was super easy and the neighborhood is nice and safe. Might be a little small for 2 couples but it was perfect for two college roommates getting together.

Great weekend getaway

Enjoyed sitting on the porch with our coffee. We spent most of our time in the historic/shopping area, which was 10-15 minute walk. Crescent hotel is a short walk up the hill. It is an older house with a few quirks (taller folk watch your head going into the upstairs bathroom) but we had those expectations so didn’t bother us. The stairs down to the bedrooms was steep, but wasn’t an issue for us.

Great Location, super cute

This house was great! So charming and welcoming. Host had fresh flowers and some snacks set out for our arrival. Check in was easy and it was very clean. We enjoyed the easy walk to Brews and downtown. AC units kept us comfortable and the deck was great. The decor was perfect for the period. The first few steps leading to the downstairs (where both bedrooms are located) were narrow and pretty steep, so if you have someone that can’t navigate steep stairs know that. Our crew was good though. We would stay here again, great place.

Great Location

We had a great stay here. The only thing that I can say is if you or your people staying have mobility issues this is not the house for you. The shower and tub are both downstairs and the stairway would be very difficult to navigate if there were issues. If you are healthy with no issues, then this is the place for you. It fits perfectly with the whole Eureka vibe! We definately will be back

Spontaneous stay

My (2) college friends met me at this property. The home lacked the certain kind of warmth I expected. Physical warmth. I stayed cold. I suggestion packing a blanket (or conveniently forget and treat yourself in town) and noise canceling ear plugs (if you’re not used to loud box heaters). I have always loved the town and looking back on my stay, I can say I liked the house.

Not for elderly or handicapped!

Just my friend and I stayed here and we’re in our 40s so we had no problems with the super steep stairs but would not recommend to anyone who has mobility issues. Other than that we loved our stay we wanted to stay in a historic place down on spring street and it met our needs!
