This was a great spot! The space was adorable and there was a great outdoor area to sit and enjoy the crisp morning air! We stayed with our dog and it was perfect! There is a little garden area where he could relax with us off the leash, which was the best. The host was amazing and very friendly.i would stay here again!

Pups with Mom and Dad

The cottage set up is very nice, beautiful, welcoming grounds. Everything was very clean, inviting, and very comfortable. We were in Little Rock for a multi day medical check up at UAMS and the stay at Rosemount made everything much better, especially since we could have our two pups with us. The location was perfect, close to the hospital, great restaurants, dog parks, grocery stores, everything we needed!

Cozy Cottage

While not a modern property, May's Cottage worked great for us. It was comfortable, with room to spread out. The breakfast provided was a particularly nice touch, which made things really easy. On nice days, the outdoor space is relatively private and comfortable. The location is convenient to downtown Little Rock, yet feels like a neighborhood. Communication was easy and helpful.

We appreciate your choosing to stay with us and for the great review. I'm always happy when a guest has a good stay. You are right - we aren't a modern property. Rosemont was built in 1880! We work at keeping her relevant, updated and comfortable. Come back anytime; we're always here.

Beautiful! Just like the description!

This place was dreamy. I stayed with my dog and it was so accommodating. It had a fenced yard with gorgeous plants and outdoor seating. Inside was a cozy bed and kitchen with everything you needed. The bathroom even had a Jacuzzi tub! The breakfast was great too. Each day the food would be left in the fridge so I could cook it just how I like.This place was so close to Soma and was walking distance to several stores, restaurants, and museums. Highly recommend to anyone!

Hi, Holly - thank you for writing the review. I am happy you enjoyed May's Garden Cottage. I am a bit puzzled by your concern of people seeing in. In order to see into the cottage from the sky light, upstairs guests would have to crawl over a fairly high wooden banister, walk across the roof and be poised over the sky light located in the kitchen. I regret you felt uncomfortable but I really think you were safe from peepers.

A Day at May's.

Loved it. Very cozy and comfortable. Should've done more research on the area since never been there before. A street map in the cottage would be wonderful. However, we would stay there again if ever in the area and try the waffles and sausage. It was a nice pastry selection for breakfast. Thanks again S&D

Quaint and charming historic cottage

Like stepping back in time. Cozy and romantic decor. Immaculate. Private cottage tucked away at rear of old Victorian house. Quiet. Private, fenced courtyard with patio furniture and lighting for ambience; safe place for our small dog. Lots of lovely touches with breakfast delivered each morning! A memorable stay.

Sweetly decorated older home

This is a well loved home divided into separate rentals. It was clean and comfortable. Nice touches everywhere. Wish we could have used the outdoor space but it was too cold. This is not an upscale area but you can take a short drive to some nice shops and restaurants. Thank you for being dog friendly:)!

Susan, Thank you for the 5-Star review. I am delighted that you enjoyed the cottage and your stay at Rosemont. I regret you viewed our historic neighborhood as not being "upscale". You were in the Governor;s Mansion Historic District. The entire neighborhood, including Rosemont, is on the National Register of Historic Places. We are obviously an urban neighborhood but that is generally considered a significant part of its charm. SoMa (South on Main) is just 4 blocks from the cottages and the River Market is 5-7 minutes by car.

About the host

Hosted by Susan Maddx

Host profile image
After a demanding career in advertising, I moved home to Little Rock from Dallas, settled in the city's incredible historic neighborhood where I grew up and began Act III of my life ... so far my favorite. I love being a cottage innkeeper, working from my own 1880s farmhouse surrounded by peace , beauty and wonderful guests who seem to enjoy my updated, vintage cottages.

Why they chose this property

Rosemont is a farmhouse built in 1880 still retaining much of the original construction. I moved here from a career in Dallas advertising with the desire to restore this lovely historic house and turn it into my home and an inn. After 18 years of traditional innkeeping, I converted the space to private cottages. I love everything about my life in the house, the neighborhood and my cottages.

What makes this property unique

Private entrance to each cottage through the common garden with off-street parking behind the garden steps away from your cottage. Each cottage has either a gated balcony or fenced & gated private garden. Privacy, seclusion and casual luxury are the hallmarks of Rosemont hospitality.
