Amazing little place right on bank of the White River! If you have a guided trip, your guide may even pick you up feom the bank behind the house. Ours did! No negatives on the property at all! The river was up and in the yard but it didnt stop the browns from eating my flies feom the bank!

Stunning and Peaceful

The photos don’t do this property justice. The house is beautifully decorated, large spacious bathrooms. I thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the porch overlooking the river to have my morning coffee. We were able to catch fish right out back. A beautiful slice of paradise on the white river!Would happily visit this property again.

The BEST!

I have stayed in homes up and down the White River and TROUTFEST is simply the best. It's a comfortable, clean home that's easy to relax in and it simply has the BEST access to water right in front of the home. I NEVER get skunked in front of TROUTFEST. I love the kitchen. I love the master bathroom and I love, love, love the patio that we spend so much of our time on. Your guide can pull right up on the lawn to pick you up if you are fishing that section of the White. How easy is that? We had possibility of thunderstorms and could pull our car right into the garage and that's a nice plus. It's so worth that drive down Denton Ferry Road for this gem.

A wonderful property

This was our second stay at this really awesome property. Rick is the most accommodating host I've ever dealt with. We had a problem on our reservation (my fault) and Rick was kind enough to offer us stay at his residence....going way beyond expected to help us with a solution. A first rate place and a first rate host. We'll be back for sure.

Definitely would stay again!

The check in process was very easy. The attrntion to cleanliness was exceptional. Attention to detail with amenities made for a very relaxing stay. The host responds quickly if there is a need and considerate about anything that needs taken care. We would only stay at Troutfest when returning to Cotter
