Experience the allure of a charming farmhouse turned bungalow in Fayetteville. Originally built in 1952, this serene abode now rests on 5 picturesque acres, offering an idyllic country ambiance within city limits. With a Mediterranean-inspired facade featuring stucco, stone, a cupola, and elegant arches, this home exudes timeless beauty. Nestled among majestic oak trees, this colorful, clean, and cozy retreat promises a truly rejuvenating stay.

As proud hosts since 2012, we continuously refresh the decor, ensuring a delightful and up-to-date ambiance for our cherished guests. Immerse yourself in the serenity of the surroundings, perfectly situated near a plethora of events and attractions in northwest Arkansas. From BBB (Bikes, Blues & BBQ) to Razorback games, golf tournaments to stage races, and countless museums, parks, and natural wonders, your options for adventure are limitless!

Step into the interior, where modernity meets comfort. The home has been meticulously updated with energy-efficient materials and appliances, providing both environmental consciousness and convenience. Three bedrooms, two with queen beds and one with twin beds, offer peaceful slumber, while two full bathrooms and a washer/dryer enhance your convenience. The great room encompasses a cozy living area, a charming dining space, and a small corner office for those who need to stay connected. The fully equipped kitchen boasts cookware, dinnerware, utensils, and a selection of commonly used condiments.

Relax and unwind in the living room, complete with a 65" LCD Smart TV featuring Dish Network with local channels and a DVR for your entertainment. Choose from an array of DVDs in our video library or curl up with a good book amidst the tranquility. Art enthusiasts will appreciate the captivating original art and prints adorning the walls, adding a touch of cultural charm.

This cozy haven offers comfortable rooms and a warm ambiance that will make you feel right at home. For guests with allergies, rest assured that the home features wood and tile floors with minimal area rugs. PETS ARE NOT ALLOWED AND SMOKING IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED INDOORS AND OUTDOORS ON THE PROPERTY.

Start your day enjoying the views from the small front porch, complete with rocking chairs. The backyard is bordered by a serene wooded area, providing a sense of privacy. Relax on the back patio, which has a gazebo and patio furniture. A charcoal barbecue grill, along with charcoal and lighter fluid, is at your disposal and stored in the garage.

Whether you're planning a weekend getaway or a months-long retreat, this home offers the perfect balance. As evening descends, keep an eye out for the red-tailed hawks and occasional owls that grace the property. Coyotes, raccoons, armadillos, and roadrunners also make sporadic appearances, painting a picturesque backdrop against the setting sun.

Rest assured that the owner's home is situated next door, ensuring prompt assistance should you require anything to enhance your stay. Please note that our vacation rental is not suitable for parties or large gatherings. We must maintain a peaceful atmosphere, given its proximity to our own residence and neighbors. Privacy is prioritized, with minimal traffic on the private drive. Additionally, outdoor security cameras ensure your safety and provide awareness of arrivals and departures.

To further streamline your experience, all items in the bungalow are carefully inventoried. Upon booking your reservation, you will receive a rental agreement to complete, house rules, and a partial list of amenities provided, so you can leave the burdensome packing behind.

Peaceful Retreat
We had a short visit; however, this bungalow, in such a tranquil setting, was a breath of fresh air. My husband and I stayed here with our daughter and granddaughter while visiting family in the area. The house was clean and accommodating. We loved the trees and songbirds so much. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a comfortable and peaceful retreat.

Awesome place to stay; great location
This was our very first time in Arkansas and we couldn’t have picked a better place to stay! We were there primarily for the Auburn-Arkansas football game and booked an additional 4 days to visit the area. We visited War Eagle/Rogers, Devil’s Den SP, Eureka Springs and Crystal Bridges/Bentonville. It was fantastic to have such a wonderful place to return to each evening to relax and prepare for the next day’s activities! Nice size bungalow to spread out in since this was our last major stop on a 3-week road trip and we needed to unload all items from the car and repack. Leslie is an outstanding host and the bungalow was clean and comfortable. If we’re ever in the Northwest Arkansas area again we will definitely stay here again! Highly recommend!

Stunning Bungalow
The house was meticulously clean, and extremely comfortable for our family. The property was right in the City with a Country feeling, secluded woods around it. A lovely Gazebo porch in the back with a small fenced in yard. We will definitely book with them every time we come to visit in Arkansas. Very nice Owners to work with. It was a 5 Star experience!

Holiday weekend in NWA
Wonderful secluded property in Springdale, Arkansas. The bungalow was very clean, modern yet retaining classic charm. The property is at the end of a dead end road and very quiet. We were able to observe deer each night while sitting outside. Country living yet minutes from all the interesting parts of the community. The home was very clean and comfortable.
