Excellent choice!

This is a wonderful property with a very large kitchen and serving area, as well as a patio and outside fireplace. Great for parties, social events, graduations, etc. The property manager, Joey, could not be better. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

GREAT PLACE TO STAY ON WHITE RIVER - LOVED IT

The kitchen and "great room" are the perfect place to gather and prepare to slay the trout! Stay here and call Ms. Debbie at Cotter Trout Dock for the best guides and shore lunch!

The Firehouse

The Firehouse has plenty of room for families with kids. There were 9 of us including a 7,4 and 3 year olds. The kitchen was awesome with lots of room to cook. The bedrooms were nice and comfortable. The showers were huge with lots of hot water. The washer and dryer was a bonus. This property was in an excellent location. There are many things to do within walking distance like fishing, walking trails, park for the kids to play and the swimming hole with a swing. There are coffee shops, diners and fly shops. I’ve been coming to this area for the past 17 years and this has been the best location by far. I highly recommend! 5 star rating out of 5!

This was our 21st fishing trip to Cotter and we stayed in the same place as in 2004. It has been completely remodeled and re-appointed. Very nice and fit the 12 of us perfectly.
