You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Beautiful home- near the University-large outdoor spaces and a hot tub.

Why stay at an ordinary home when you can stay right in town in a one of a kind home overlooking a pond! This is a unique property that is sure to delight the nature lover in you! Talk about a grand entry... a foot bridge over a pond to get to the front door! Enjoy the covered hot tub regardless of the outside weather conditions!

This house is right in town with a creek/pond running in front. The water is so clear most of the year that you can sit on the front porch and watch the fish swim. The water is always flowing.
The house is located in a very desirable area of high end homes near the intersection of mission and crossover (east side of Fayetteville). It is approximately 10 minutes to the University of Arkansas and under 3 minutes to a Walmart Neighborhood Market and Harp's Grocery store and many restaurants. It is located near the bike trails and you can even access the trails right from the property. No need to transport your bikes and park your car elsewhere!

The home has 3 bedrooms. An extra large master suite with sitting area and en-suite bathroom. A second bedroom with 2 double beds and a third bedroom with daybed and trundle underneath. There is also a futon sofa that makes into a bed in the master bedroom.
There is a one car carport in addition to a large gravel parking area that can easily accommodate multiple cars. There is a fire pit and roasting sticks provided in case you'd like to make smores or roast hot dogs during your stay. Guests must provide wood which is normally available at the neighborhood market and/or gas station just down the street. The property was once a yoga studio and there is a meditation circle to the far left of the home (when facing the home).

A gas grill is provided. There are two tables on the extra large front porch that each seat 4 people. Inside there are two tables that each seat 6. So whether you're having a large family gathering to eat dinner or you want to play some board games, put together a puzzle or just enjoy sitting and talking, this house has plenty of seating to accommodate the family. Perfect for families, ball games, or a staycation!

We have 2 smart TVs and provide a blu-ray player in the living area. There is also a large selection of DVDs in the TV cabinet in the living area. We also have a few games and puzzles to make the most of any time you spend just relaxing.

If you're musically inclined, there is also a piano that guests may use during their stay. Please note this is not a toy and should be treated as an expensive musical instrument.

The perfect place for our family to stay when we travel to Arkansas!

We have stayed at this property twice in the last few years, whenever we want to go visit our Arkansas family. We rode tripped all the way from Washington State to get here, and it is such a wonderful retreat. My two boys, 12 and 15, absolutely love the pond and the catch and release fishing. We have seen turtles, frogs, Lots of fish and all sorts of cool birds. It's so convenient being in town, yet it feels like you are at a cabin in the woods! I loved watching the fireflies at night, since we don't have those at home. We enjoyed inviting family over from around town to hang out on the deck in the evenings. This place has everything we need for a comfortable stay. And the kids love having their own rooms! Hot tub was clean and a lovely respite at the end of the long days of traveling and visiting. I think my favorite thing, though, was waking up each morning to the beautiful trees out the large windows, where we would watch birds and even a bunny that came by a few times.

Quiet retreat with a great location

We thoroughly enjoyed our week in Fayetteville! My husband has family nearby and the location couldn’t have been better. Having traveled by car all the way from eastern Washington state with our 10 & 13 year old boys, we were ready to settle in after the long journey…the deck and hot tub were just what we needed. There was enough space to entertain a few family members and we were close to restaurants and stores, yet it felt secluded in the trees. The kids kept busy exploring the pond and catching and releasing fish and frogs- they absolutely loved it. The host was extremely accommodating and answered all our questions quickly. Highly recommend!

Retreat in the city

We came to Fayetteville for our Grandaughters wedding at Sassafras Winery (which is beautiful) This house was so relaxing. I enjoyed coffee each morning out on the front porch and in the evening when everyone got back to the house we sat outside on the porch again. Oh and the hot tub too! Spacious house with the fully stocked kitchen. I ask if they had a crockpot and our wonderful host said she'd bring one over before we arrived. Walmart very close for a store pickup and the Botanical gardens were very nice too. Your not far from anything you might need.

Weekend trip for a friends wedding

We were in town for a wedding and enjoyed spending our down time enjoying the property. We loved the porch and we felt like we were in the woods while still being close to the city. The hot tub was a great addition!

Cute little spot!

We made our trip all about relaxing, so we didn’t leave the house much, and it was great! Very well taken care of, and Jennifer was very prompt in her communications. Hot tub and fire pit were awesome! Only thing is I wish there were rugs lmao. The whole place is hard wood or tile and there’s no rugs. But picking though, cuz it was gorgeous! Also I’m not sure, but i think they’re razorback fans.

Annual Texas Football Trip

Our family attends a Longhorns football game every year and this house was PERFECT for our first SEC experience! We hosted friends for supper our first night & the house had everything we would want / almost as good as being at home! The host was super easy to communicate with! Everything was only about 15 minutes away making it a great location for our weekend trip! The hot tub was great to relax in after a long day of cheering our Longhorns on to victory!!!

Amazing

This cabin is literally a diamond in the rough!! With the beautiful trees surrounding it, you would have no idea that it is in town. Gorgeous house inside and out! We absolutely loved our trip and knowing when we got back from our running around, we got to sit and relax. It was so calming and peaceful! If we are ever back in AR, we will definitely be staying at this cabin again!!

Family Reunion in Fayetteville

Absolutely loved our stay, very comfortable and everything we would need was already there. Just like home. The pictures are great but in person so much better. One whole side of the home with huge windows floor to ceiling looking at nature… little bunny rabbits and squirrels in the morning, the bullfrogs singing in the pond at night, just fun and peaceful. Host Jennifer is fantastic, we will return next year!

“Rustic”

While the stay was nice I think I was missing some personal touches. As in there were no throws for lounging, the curtains barely covered the windows, and there were a LOT of windows. It was odd there was no welcome basket and only left filters for coffee for how many days you stay. You couldn’t make 2 pots a day. lol The place was pretty clean but lacking the personal touch. Great neighborhood.
