About this cottage rental
Deep in the Arkansas Ozarks, nestled in rolling hills, is an 1891 Schoolhouse that has been fully restored. The Ribbon Ridge school district was established On April 16, 1891 and was closed in the early 1940,s it averaged only 16 students per year.Only 12 miles southeast of Huntsville, we are located at the crossroads of the Ozarks. Eureka Springs, Fayetteville, and Springdale are less than 45 minutes away. The scenic Buffalo River is just 22 miles over mountain roads. On the scenic porch of this lovely cottage, the weary traveler can listen to birds calling, horses neighing and deer whistling. For the more energetic, miles of hiking and riding trails, also accessible by mountain bike, lie right outside the cottage door. This cottage style one room Schoolhouse includes a full kitchen and bathroom. Come spent a night or two back in time and enjoy the beauty and history of Northwest Arkansas.

The place was exactly as advertised, had lots of charm, and was a great way to unwind with nature. Very clean.

Staying in a one room school was an interesting experience. I wish we had had more time to explore the immediate area but we were too busy trying to take in so many of the sights nearby. We visited Terra Studios near Elkins. Crystal Bridges, War Eagle Mill,and Eureka Springs. Harrison is a good central location so maybe next time we can explore to the east for some more lovely parts of Arkansas.

The little school house is very pretty. As a teacher, I enjoyed reading thru some of the history. Our issue was a very small window unit to cool off the building. We put the fan in front of it to help cool it off quicker. Still a bit warm. I got up in the middle of the night to relicate the fan. The road in was very rough. We live on 6 miles of gravel but it is not rough like the road in to the school house. The other issue was bath soap. The only bath soap was a bowl of used soaps under the bathroom sink. We used the sink handsoap. Maybe I missed where we needed to bring our own. Again, very nice and quiet place (no tv). Just needs a 2nd window unit or a larger one for Arkansas summers and adequate toiletries.
