Cute little cottage… extremely clean. Easy check in and checkout. One thing that was better than most VRBO’s, was the fact that we didn’t have to strip the sheets or carry the towels or bag up the trash. We did, however, try to leave the cottage in the same clean shape that we found when we arrived. Great place to stay if you’re ever in Mena!!!

Our daughter goes to college here and it was absolutely the perfect place to get to spend a little time with her, order DoorDash for dinner, visit and then take her back to her dorm. This is definitely a gem in this small town

Cute cottage for the win!

This place is so cute. It’s very clean and the hostess always bakes cookies and puts them in the kitchen for us. It’s a beautiful property as well & close to downtown. We always stay here when passing through town!

Our go-to place to say in Mena!

We make periodic visits to Mena and ever since discovering The Carriage House Inn a few years ago this is our go-to place to stay. The hosts, Ashley and Scott are wonderful and they strive to provide the best possible guest experience.

Beautiful home, loved the area, super convenient, and cozy. Only downside is all the sheets, blankets, mats and towels are white, in an area with red clay.

Enjoyed the Carrage House

The carrage house was very quite and private. The location for walking around town is very convenient. Wish we could have stayed long enough to meet the chickens. Would stay again.

Baked cookies waiting for us upon arrival. The bathtub was large and relaxing to take a bubble bath in, the entire home was clean, the full kitchen was nice to cook in and the king-sized bed was comfy. Will definitely be returning. Loved all the candles and candle holders.
