Shirley Cottage | Newly restored 1910 Ozark Mountain Dogtrot Cottage

2 Bedroom Cottage in Shirley

Built around 1910, you'll go back in time when you step foot in this newly restored Dogtrot Cottage. Sitting on top of the hill in Downtown Shirley, this is one of the few dogtrots still standing in Arkansas. It feels just like Grandma's old place! The house was originally designed with open-ended passage that runs through the center of a house, flanked by two enclosed living spaces. The living room has been restored to how it would have looked in the early 1900's. Each room in the house is themed for a different decade. The kitchen was originally in a separate building apart from the house. But when the owners added plumbing around the middle of last century, a bathroom, kitchen, and laundry room were added to the original house. The home sits on 1 acre of land with plenty of room for parking cars, ATVs, boats, etc. You'll get views of the Ozark Mountains from almost every window. Two screened in porches and a large covered front porch makes it ideal for outdoor enjoyment.
The big bedroom has a king bed and couch (w/ TV), the smaller room has two twin beds. We do have a blow up mattress for anyone needing an extra place to sleep.
The house may be old, but modern amenities abound in this unique rental. High speed WiFi, two TV's, fully stocked kitchen supplies, antique tub with shower, dedicated office and brand new HVAC.
Outside, enjoy our quaint courtyard with firepit, covered parking, charcoal grill and yard games including croque, bocci ball, frisbee, cornhole and others.
Enjoy porch sittin' ? Well, we have three porches to choose from! Two are screened in and the front porch is HUGE!
The house is a three minute walk to the antique shops and museum in the Historic Shirley Downtown and a five minute walk to the historic Cottrell-Wilson Hiking Trail. The city park, river access, historic jail and train bridge are all within a ten minute walk.
Kayaking, Fishing, Swimming, Hiking, ATV riding and Golf are all activities within Shirley and Fairfield Bay Area!
Laundry room is on property
Pets are allowed but we charge a $25 pet fee. Please keep pets OFF the furniture. The house is full of antiques, so we allow dogs under 20 lbs.
There are two security cameras on the shed. One faces the carport and the other faces the side yard.
