The hobbit house is a great place to stay with family or friends. We loved the firepit area and the welcome snacks were so nice. The house was central to where we wanted to go. Beautiful views from the front of the house as well!

Magical Experience

Our family loved staying at the Hobbit House! The house was amazing, and spacious. The decorations really made you feel like you were in middle earth. There were activities and games for the children and family, the accommodations were extremely comfortable, and it had all the amenities you could need. If your looking for a unique place to stay while in NW Arkansas, then this is the place.

Great vacation spot

The Hobbit House was amazing. Absolutely loved the property. Family loved it. Peaceful and comfortable and the elven bread and cheese tray was super cool. The owners were very accommodating and easy to work with. Communication was great. We will definitely be back and try to spend a little more time at the house. We had a fast schedule and didn’t get to relax much. Next time we will though

A little piece of the Shire

It would be very easy to go overboard with the LOTR and Hobbit references in a place like this. Instead Cheryl and Tom have blended a perfect balance of whimsy and cottage charm into this delightful home. Being able to be far enough from town to enjoy the sounds of nature, but also close enough to enjoy the many things the region offers, makes this a perfect place to land. Our hosts could not have been better and we look forward to finding our way here again in the future.

Exceptional stay in a magical location

Our visit to the Cedar Bluff Hobbit House was truly magical. We arrived to wine, cheese and other themed goodies that were completely unexpected. My entire family really loved all of unique details of this house. The Hobbit theme is evident throughout and there are many fun activities for family fun including themed board games, corn hole and an outdoor area with a fire pit for S'mores and relaxing. We spotted many deer grazing right out of the front door and the view is something special. We hope to visit again when we are in the area. Don't miss this one, it's truly special.

The greatest hobbit adventure

The Hobbit House is exactly as depicted in the pictures. Cheryl and Tom have thought of everything you could need. The beds and pillows were very soft. I could have stayed in them all day. The outside is just as cozy as the inside. The decor is spot on. I wouldn’t change a thing. They supply so much extra with smores and the welcome platter. Also great tips on what to see. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful place with us. You are such a kind lady Cheryl.

Hobbit House was a Magical Experience!!

Our group had an absolutely wonderful time at Cheryl and Tom’s Hobbit House! I can’t recommend them high enough with 5 stars, this was a 10 star experience! When we arrived, everything was perfect due to Cheryl’s superb communication skills. We breezed right in with no problem, and upon arrival the place took our breath away. Pictures can’t match the incredible view over the bluff, it was like a dream! The house itself is so comfortable. We had 9 in our group and it was absolutely perfect. From the comfortable beds, to the awesome fire pit and the convenient grill, Cheryl thought of everything to make our stay perfect. I loved that there were no requirements of starting dishes or laundry- Cheryl made everything effortless so we could focus on making memories with friends and family. I loved every minute of our time at the Hobbit House!

Enchanting Hobbit House perfect for families and friends

We had a wonderful time during our stay! Everything was very clean and Cheryl was a perfect host. We adorded all the Hobbit details and the well thought out decor. The home was quite welcoming with every detail we needed thought of in advance. We used the kitchen and the grill and had everything we needed to prepare our meals. The welcome tray was a wonderful surprise and we enjoyed the wine, snacks, and later the bath soap and shampoo/conditioner. We also enjoyed the fire pit and we're able to do smores thanks to our wonderful hosts providing the skewers needed for roasting marshmallows. We enjoyed watching the birds, squirrels, bald eagles, and even some deer! We were also able to check out the nearby fishing spots. Everyone in our family of 7 stayed comfortably and slept well. I would definitely stay again and recommend to our friends. Thanks Cheryl and Tom!!

Unique Property with Charm and Comfort

My family and I stayed here for a weekend to attend a football game in Fayetteville. It was close enough to get to town quickly yet far enough to relax and enjoy the outdoors. The house was so charming, equipped with everything you need but also going above and beyond with a nice welcome basket of wine, cheese, crackers and soap! Plenty of space, comfortable, and the amazing details that make this house almost like staying at a museum. The hosts were very accommodating and helpful, they recommended we visit the Crystlebridge Museum in Bentonville and we did and it was fantastic! We also took our kids to the Amazeum and they had a blast. For hiking and outdoor adventure we visited Hobbs State Park and War Eagle nearby. There is a historic mill that is now a restaurant that would be a great choice for lunch after a nice morning hike in the area. I recommend that whoever sleeps in the top loft bedroom are the ones in the group that go to bed last because you won't have a closed wall to keep noise out.

So Much Fun

We took our daughter to celebrate her birthday with a Lord of the Rings marathon! The Hobbit House exceeded our expectations! There was such great attention to detail and a host of extra special touches that those who love the Lord of the Rings books or movies will find to be so much fun! Cheryl was attentive and so kind! The view outside was gorgeous and at night became so magical with all the special touches. Everywhere we turned was one more unexpected bonus from the charcuterie board when we entered, to the Blackstone grill for delicious, easy meals, to the s’mores ingredients ready for us to enjoy over a fire that had its own special surprises. We enjoyed the binoculars for birdwatching and the before and after pictures of the house left us marveling at the handiwork and effort. It was a weekend of wonderful surprises!

About the host

Hosted by Tom & Cheryl Bramlett

Host profile image
We were finally able to purchase this 3 acre property - next door to our 5 acre property - after it had been abandoned for many years. We totally redid it and are so happy to present it as a place of rest, relaxation, restoration, respite, retreat and fun for families and friends!

Why they chose this property

This is an unusual underground geodesic dome built in the 70's. The couple who designed it were also horticulturists and there are many unusual plants and trees on the property along with a lot of wild life. The underground Hobbit House maintains a year round temperature average of 65 degrees. We did add a central heating and whole house dehumidifier system, though no air conditioning is needed we do have a unit there. It was Tom's idea for a Hobbit House theme and we spent over a year painstakingly working to create a unique, artistic and special hobbit getaway for family and friends to gather at "the shire".

What makes this property unique

Peaceful, private, quiet, gated, natural getaway with great views.
