Perfect Location

We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage! We had a little snafu at the start of our stay but Julie (the host) made sure everything was sorted. She was quick on responses and ensured we were comfortable. The home is perfectly situated at the bottom of Queen Wilhelmina State Park and just a couple blocks from downtown Mena. The home is exactly as you see in the pictures. Very comfortable and has everything you could need for a great stay. We would definitely come back in the future.

Fall weekend getaway

The cottage exceeded our expectations in every way. Our getaway was to enjoy the fall colors on the Talimena drive however rain and fog prevented us from seeing much which resulted in spending more time at the cottage. Lucky for us accommodations were outstanding making for a very enjoyable weekend regardless of the weather conditions. We will be back!

Sets the bar high

My wife and I were visiting the area for 2 days and came across Julie and Kent’s amazing place. I have stayed in vacation rentals across the country, and this is by far the top tier of places I have stayed. The location is peaceful, private and close to town. The place was clean and comfortable, and the Rose’s were very accommodating, making them excellent hosts. I would recommend it to anybody looking to stay in the Mena area.

Beautiful place!

Our family had an amazing time here. We cooked all of our meals here all weekend. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed and more. We used the washer/dryer so we didn’t have to do laundry when we got home, which was so nice. The bathrooms were very clean with all of the products you'll need. The beds were comfy and clean. It is beautifully decorated, looks just like pictures. This is definitely a must stay if you are in or around the Mena area. We played and drove the RZR all day at WolfPen Gap trail. It was so nice to come back to a nice place for the evening. Thank Julie, We will be back!

Mena AR

My husband and I took a long weekend getaway to explore the Mena, Arkansas area and rented this lovely house. It has two bedrooms with TVs, two full baths, a living area with a TV, washer and dryer, and a fully stocked kitchen. Everything was new and clean. The house has all you could possibly need, and the owners are right next door. We enjoyed meeting Julie and Kent Rose and learning more about the area from them. We chose this location because it was close to the town but also near the trails and the scenic drive. The town of Mena has several restaurant options along with all the regular fast food, a Walmart, art galleries, specialty shops, a theater, and a grocery store. We rented an ATV while there and rode through Wolf Pen Gap, which is about 20 minutes away from the house. We also hiked some of the trails and drove the Talimena Scenic Drive and continued the beautiful drive to Talihina OK on our way home. Arkansas is truly “The Natural State” with state parks, rolling hills, rivers, and dense forests. We highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a nice place to stay in this beautiful area.
