Stoneflower Cottage

We absolutely loved our stay at Stoneflower Cottage in Heber Springs, Arkansas! The cottage was beautiful, cozy, clean, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The location was perfect for enjoying everything Heber Springs has to offer while still feeling like a quiet retreat. You can tell a lot of thought and care went into making this cottage a special place for guests. We would definitely stay at Stoneflower Cottage again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a charming, comfortable, and relaxing place to stay in Heber Springs.

The unique architecture makes this place memorable.

The house was a very beautifully designed home with lots of unique features and could be again if the owners would do a better job of keeping up the house and grounds.

First, I was given a keypad number to use several times in the front-door check-in instructions. Only once in the instructions was a combination mentioned for the lockbox with the key to the house. However, when we arrived, there was no keypad on the front door; the only way to enter the house was with the actual key. They are desperately in need of a good groundskeeper. There was a large hole that was over a foot deep that had been dug up when you first came in the driveway, and it appeared to have been left that way for some time. The garden around the home has been neglected for what looks to be several years. There was once a patio with a pond, but the pond was almost dried up, with just mud in the bottom, and the paver stones were covered in dirt and leaves, with weeds growing up through the entire patio area, so that it was totally unusable in its current condition. The house has 4 large glass double doors, 2 on the first floor and 2 on the second floor. The main door that the key worked on had a large crack at the bottom of the door, and none of the doors had been cleaned for what looked like several months, so I cleaned all of them inside and out. Multiple lights in the house were not working. I had to go to the store and purchase light bulbs. The A/C was off on the second and third floor at our scheduled check in time of 4pm, so it was very hot. The only bed was on the 3rd floor. We immediately turned on the AC, but could barely sleep in it at 10pm. The large deck on the second floor had piles of leaves that my spouse and I had to clean off before being able to use it, and the gas in the grill was empty, so we had to go and purchase a new tank before being able to grill on the deck outside. The beautiful beams in the house had cobwebs everywhere on the first and second floors. When I paid over $800 for 2 nights, I didn't expect to do the amount of housekeeping I had to do.
