Two-night stay
Our stay was great! Quick drive to Hot Springs for the day. Would like to return with our ATV next time. Cabin had everything we needed and the bed was nice and comfy. Price was very reasonable. Ate at the Chopping Block in Mena, AR and the food was delicious.

Anniversary getaway
We celebrated our 30th anniversary and loved the stay. This little efficiency cabin was perfect. It is so quiet and cozy. I would love to come back in the fall the property is a large area with two fire pitts. We did not bring our dog, but this place is so pet friendly with a small fence for pets. We rode the trails and it is very close to trail heads. Can't wait to visit again.

Peaceful
The cottage was clean and the property was well maintained. There is a funky artsy feel to the out side and deck that you can set and relax or bbq while taking in the beauty of the sky and yard. The property is mostly secluded with a creek that has a tiny waterfall running into it from a stream that twist around the length of the property. You just have to see it to appreciate.

I so enjoyed staying in this adorable little cottage. It was perfect for my husband and I, and my pup! The area is so quiet and peaceful too. will be back for sure!! Also, I wish I'd had looked at what kind of mattress was there because that was some of the best sleep I've gotten in a while.

The duplex was clean, comfortable and nicely decorated. The neighborhood was nice and quiet, close to town. The drive wasn’t too far for ATV riding. We enjoyed seeing deer by the creek and in the pasture in the evenings.

I love Nature
I loved the Creek access, we kayaked, I wish we would have fished but it was down a little bit, plenty of minnows for bait, though. Place was cool and nice, AC works great. This is a perfect place to get away, and get back to nature, wish we could have stayed a couple of more nights but we hope to go back soon. Thanks to Tamara and Mark.

Handicap accessible limited.
Beautiful, clean, quiet and lovely. That’s the good part. Only one ramp for handicap wheelchair or mobility scooter. Because of that I could not access gazebo, where the grill was located the gazebo had a ramp but could not get off porch! Need a ramp by suite A Need grab handles in bathroom, by toilet and in shower. Oh by the way seat in shower was very small. We loved the cottage, but it should not have been listed with handicap logo.

Great for the two of you.
We were visiting family in Mena and this was perfect for my husband and I. It is the size of a suite and has all of the amenities of a small apartment: tv, refrigerator, stove and living area. . Relaxing outside area with outdoor seating and bbq. It is a duplex but you have your own entrances. It was perfect for visiting our family.
