Beautiful location! The host was gracious and the care for the property was noticed. We enjoyed our stay and were very comfortable. Small notable point was that the shower head was phenomenal! Especially after a 20 mile hike in the rain. Close to food, but away from city lights.

A wonderful place to stay near Little Rock

Very cozy, comfortable, and clean place to stay in a beautiful area in the hills near Little Rock. The hosts were very communicative and easy to work with. The location was conveniently located within a short drive to everywhere we needed to go for the wedding we had traveled to Arkansas to attend.

We had a great two-day stay in Little Rock. The cottage was super clean, tidy, and perfect for what we needed. Everything was provided, from kitchenware to a very functional bathroom. The blow dryer was a nice bonus, and the heated bathroom along with the AC worked perfectly during our stay.The full-size bed was doable, though a queen size would have been a bit more comfortable, but we still slept really well because the area was so quiet and private. We would definitely book again and plan to stay longer next time.The owner was friendly and helpful, and the location was convenient — only about a 12-minute drive to major restaurants and stores. What we loved most was being close to Maumelle Lake for our fishing guide trip.The only small challenge was the paved driveway with our truck. It was manageable, but next time we’ll probably bring an SUV or smaller vehicle for easier maneuvering. Overall, five stars and very glad we found this spot!

Lovely Place to Stay

Beautiful and serene setting with in a cozy guest house next to the main property. Linda and Bob were fantastic hosts as well as the lovely Memphis who occasionally came by to say hi. Perfect stay place to stay that's close to the city while feeling secluded and removed from the city. Definitely would stay again. Highly recommended!

Our getaway at Fern's Cottage.

Fern's Cottage is on a beautiful property in the mountains. It is centrally located, which makes it easy to access all the state parks, national rivers and off-road adventures we were looking for. Linda, Bob and Memphis were amazing hosts and we would have been lost if not for Bob's encyclopedic knowledge of all the area has to offer.
