Wonderful Rock Cottage

This morning while packing to leave we said, "We will definitely stay here again." Cottage is so clean! I love the decor. Beds comfortable. The washer/dryer amenity was great! Having TVs in living area and bedrooms was awesome! We personally loved that a train came by house twice a day because we love trains! If you don't want to hear the train, the owner has provided excellent sound reduction extras. Joey is a very kind man. That is a blessung anytime you stay in a vrbo. Highly recommend Cotter Rock Cottage in Cotter, Arkansas, trout capital of US!

Very nice rental!

Very clean, had more than we expected-spices, zip lock bags, deep fryer and grill, high pressure shower with nozzle hose , “outside towels”, games, white noise maker at each bedside, plenty of hangars, to name a few. Decor was outstanding for a fisherman. Very near the White River.

Wonderful home to stay in!

We had the pleasure of staying in this well cared for home. Delightfully decorated and close to so many oudoor activities. Our favorite thing about this home? The relaxing front AND back porches. The host, Joey, made sure to keep in contact which was very much appreciated. Everything we could possibly need was furnished for us. We just brought our clothes and groceries. Would definitely stay here again!

My stay at the Cotter Rock Cottage

Perfect place to stay I had a planned 2-day guided trip. Working with the hosts were very easy and they are very accommodating. The place was clean, plenty of room for 4, maybe even 5 people, had everything you might need for a few day stay. Thank again for everything!

About the host

Hosted by Joey Shaw

Hi! I'm Joey; I live with my wife Chrystal, daughter Kylee and son Kaleb and we love living in Cotter! We have family roots that run deep in this beautiful area. My great great grandmother was Native American and came to this area by the way of the Trail of Tears. My grandmother was born and raised in Cotter, and my wife's family also has deep roots. Most of her family have been guiding trout fisherman up and down the crystal clear waters of the White River for over 40 years. Cotter truly is a peaceful, gorgeous place that once you visit you will not want to leave. I would love to talk with you and answer any questions you may have.

What makes this property unique

This house and area have many simple yet unique benefits. The house dates back to the early 30's, is stone and has beautiful white stone arches that resemble our Historic. R. M. Ruthven Rainbow Arch Bridge. Photographers and painters have taken the opportunity to using the home as a subject of their art. We have taken many family photos on the front steps as have people passing by. The tree in the front yard is a favorite of the kids and a great photo op for Mom, Dad, Grandparents, family and friends. The front porch is great for morning coffee and relaxing. The White River is just 2 min. away, Cotter Big Spring Park is 2 minute away with many offerings; swimming hole, boat launch, picnic area, playground, and the Anglin-Tinnon Railroad Workers' Memorial. There is a two-mile walking trail that begins at the park and runs upstream along the White River to Denton Ferry, a part of the Trail of Tears. There is also a bike trail, basketball court, volley ball, baseball field, pavilion, caves along the walking trail, and much more. Oh! Let's not forget about the White River. One of the most memorable sites in Cotter is the R. M. Ruthven Rainbow Arch Bridge. Dedicated in 1930, the bridge spans the White River and is on the National Historic Register.
