Cute place with the cutest back porch! The house was stocked with all the essentials and the short drive to the river was worth it as the fish were biting. We look forward to coming back soon!

We had a lovely 4 day weekend and this home is perfect & lovely. We enjoyed our stay because it’s only 4 blocks from The White River, nice relaxing deck, peaceful out back and it’s a lovely updated home. The price s very reasonable. We will return next year. It can comfortable sleep 4-6 people and I actually loved the house more than being down at the River.
Came to stay so I could learn to fly fish with Mr. McQuay. He was awesome and so was this property. Very well stocked, very clean and the host was very easy to communicate with. Will definitely recommend to anyone heading to Cotter
This property was great for us. We were in Cotter to trout
fish and the location was great. The house itself was
very clean, well equipped, comfortable, well maintained,
and felt like home. We would definitely stay there again.
The check in and out process was easy and communications with the owners was very easy and always quick responses. Loved it!
What a cute, cozy, comfortable and clean place to stay. We enjoyed our stay so much we asked to spend another night. The owners have gone above and beyond to make your stay a pleasant one. They have a large, beautiful deck to hangout on. The kitchen was very well stocked with anything you might possibly need. I will definitely stay here again when we are in the area. The best bang for your buck. I highly recommend this home.
The host was very easy to communicate with. The place was adorable, super clean, easy to find. We love that it is close to the water because we came to fish. Would highly recommend this place.
One of the best VRBO’s we have ever visited. Great neighborhood, quiet and safe surroundings, clean, comfortable and wonderfully decorated home, great outdoor entertaining area, super communications with host! We will be back, thanks for a great stay at Walter’s house!
Very clean, comfortable and relaxing home. Highly recommended for anyone staying in the area. Amy was instantly responsive for any questions I had and very helpful with recommendations from food and drinks to fishing. Look no further. Book it and enjoy.
We had a nice relaxing stay with everything we could possibly need. We went swimming at Big Spring park every morning and evening. Then came home and made supper had a blast on the back porch. Picked a few tunes, and slept like the world wasn't out there at all. Thanks Amy,Wes, and Wally
This property, host, and overall stay was excellent. I give this five out of five stars without question. The home is very inviting. Everything is in perfect order. I especially enjoyed the top quality mattresses and bedding. I travel regularly. And these mattresses are as comfortable as they get even at a five star hotel.. The host answered all of my questions promptly. I would recommend this property for anyone staying in Cotter Arkansas. If I’m blessed to live another year, I will be renting this unit the first week of January in 2027. This place is the real deal.
What a wonderful stay! We're sad we didn't have to stay longer. The host reached out prior to our trip with a ton of information from what's available in the house to all of the local dining options. The large kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. There is a Keurig and also a drip coffee maker. The large fridge is there for stocking all of your snacks and dinner (if you want to cook!). Also, there is an ice maker (in case you forget to bring sone.) There were plenty of towels, items you may have forgotten (like body wash or band-aids), tons of board games, plenty of TV streaming options, easy door access, comfy furniture and the MATTRESS! Ugh we fell in love with that mattress. We walked around the town (it's hilly so be prepared) and the whole place felt safe and cozy. I can't recommend the house and the hosts enough. We'll definitely be back.
