A QUIET RETREAT IN THE WOODS JUST A FEW MINUTES FROM THE CITY.

Fern's Cottage is a quaint little cottage, next to our home on six wooded acres in a gated neighborhood. Guests call it "peaceful" and "relaxing”. We also have a pool to enjoy for those hot balmy days. ☀️🏊‍♀️
A short drive to State Parks, Lake Maumelle and the Arkansas River, all with hiking and biking. For the more adventurous, there is shopping and variety of dining spots, all just 15 minutes away.

Lovely quiet cottage

The property is in the perfect location, nestled in the woods but not too far to drive to restaurants or places to hike around. The owners are very kind and helpful, we loved staying here! The bed was comfortable and the cottage had everything we needed.

Enjoyable stay. Peaceful and Secure

Enjoyed our stay at Fern's Cottage. Memphis was a delight and very sweet dog. We left very safe in the area and the drive was beautiful due to the landscape and area. Definitely would stay again.

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!

Perfect Gateway Outside of Little Rock

I had the most wonderful stay at this guest house! It was small but incredibly neat and well-kept, with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. The hosts were beyond amazing—truly some of the nicest people I've ever met. They went out of their way to ensure I had everything I needed and made me feel right at home. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would—10/5 stars, no question! Highly recommend this gem for anyone looking for a cozy and welcoming getaway.

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.

Great getaway

We were there for a wedding. The place was perfect and the host were very accommodating. The only thing would be maybe put a queen bed instead of a full.

Clean, quaint, and friendly

Stayed for a couple nights to run a race in the Quachita forest. Property was clean and property is secluded. It is across the driveway from the owners home. They have the best dog ever! Would stay again.

If you are looking for a quiet place on the outskirts of Little Rock, without being in the city, then this is the place. Good value in a gated community with plenty of woods around. Room was in great shape.

Beautiful and Relaxing

I had a wonderful stay. The property is beautiful and relaxing. It is the perfect location! Close to the city but far enough away to escape the hustle and bustle. The cottage was clean and had thoughtful touches like fresh flowers, quality bed sheets, towels, and pillows, and also had some coffees and teas that I enjoyed. The owner was very welcoming and friendly, provided me with a lot of information on the area. I was greeted by their friendly dog each time I arrived and left for the day. It was a lovely experience and if I return to LR, itll be the place I book. Many thanks!

Peaceful stay

Property was peaceful. The bed was quite small for a couple it was full size. The driveway was hard to maneuver if you have a truck or larger than a compact car. The owner was nice. Property was clean. Would definitely come back if the bed was larger.

Cute Stay

The home is cute, quaint, and quiet. The downstairs full bed was fine for a couple. We appreciated the amenities (Wi-Fi, outdoor seating, TV). The only recommendation would be to seal the floors; it would make cleaning spills easier. Other than that the home is lovely.

Gated Bungalow in the Hills of West Little Rock

So nice. So quiet. Close enough to city and far enough to escape! Host was very good to communicate and give a personal phone number to use if needed. Upscale. Hosts lived in the bungalow while building their house. About 600 spacious square feet. Well-supplied and the basket of coffee and tea assortments was a gracious touch. Great water pressure and plenty of hot water. Well priced. Will stay again.

Adorable quiet retreat

We had the pleasure of staying in this cottage during spring time in Arkansas. The cottage itself is a MIL suite on a beautiful, impeccably maintained property located in a gated, secluded community a reasonably short drive from restaurants, bars, and downtown Little Rock. The drive up to the property is easy to navigate and provides views of rolling hills. The grounds are beautiful and covered in blooming flowers. The owner and their dog greeted us at the front of the property and were very helpful. The cottage is cute and has ample space for 2 people, very clean, plenty of sun light. Kitchen and bathroom were fully stocked with accessories and even has a vanity for getting ready. They also provided a booklet full of hiking trail maps, list of well-liked restaurants and actives to do, and other helpful pamphlets. We were able to try out 3 of the restaurants on their list and were not disappointed by the recommendations! You will never see more stars during the night than you will out at this property. Highly recommend staying here for those wishing to be out of the way of the big city and looking to participate in outdoor activities! Recommendations in the area: red moon Tavern, pinnacle mountain state park, WXYX bar, buttered biscuit restaurant.

Beautiful cottage in the middle of a forest!

What an amazing cottage, close to a lot of activities and it was perfect for our visit to Moss Mountain Farm, the hosts are wonderful people, and we can't wait to return, the cottage is luxurious and accommodating with a wonderful view and plenty of space, we visited many places during our little vacation but tried to return early to the cottage to enjoy the surrounding beauty, we just returned to Los Angeles and my daughter and I are already planning a return visit next Spring. Thank you, Linda and Bob, for a wonderful stay! Alma & Karla
