The firehouse and its four bedrooms was perfect for my fishing trip weekend with the guys. The space is spacious with more than enough room for the four of us. Additionally, I would definitely book again with my family - its perfect for kids too.

Great time!

12 of us came here for a weekend trip. Property was big enough for all, it was clean and the check in process was easy. The only issue was that the shuffleboard table could use a little love… but that won’t keep us from coming back! Quiet area in town and we were about 2 minutes to the river. Made it super easy to get down there and fish. Will definitely book again.

Firehouse Lodge and Cotterville, Arkansas

Fun place to stay for intimate setting, especially if you are a group that likes. to cook and socialize. Small quiet town setting right on the river and the lodge is about 1/2 a mile from the spring park which has a boat launch with a little bait shop and a nice swimming hole set up with a rope swing. Lodge was clean and manager was friendly and helpful. Shiffleboard table is a bit rough if you're a big fan, but definitely an awesome place to stay and everyone we dealt with were very nice, polite, and helpful.

Perfect Family Christmas at the Firehouse

What a wonderful place for a family Christmas get together in Cotter. The Firehouse is a gorgeous property, the owners thought of every detail when doing this rental. It is perfect for large groups. We had our family Christmas here, and what a great time!! The kitchen is fully stocked and they thought of everything. The location was perfect and was close enough to walk down to the Christmas lights at Cotter Spring, a walk to lunch at the White Sands. The beds are comfy in each room, and it is decorated so cute. There are plenty of towels, and extras, and we did not want for a thing while we stayed here. The owner was great to respond to any questions or needs we had. I highly recommend this rental. Great little place in downtown Cotter.

Amazing

This property is awesome. Whether a family reunion, team meeting, fishing expedition on the White or Buffalo river, look no further. Amazing space with all the bells and whistles. The ownership and their team were awesome. Sleeps so many comfortably! Accommodating to requests. So very nice. This property is 2 minutes from Cotter Trout Dock and minutes away from some solid restaurants. We cooked steaks on the grill, and some other meals in their spacious kitchen. Communication with property team members was very attentive and quick. No delays. Thank you so much for a great experience. Angie was great helping us with questions. Jeff as well.
