Perks for the Parents

This spacious family home, less than 10 minutes from Arkansas University and near to Ozark National Forest, has large gardens and is well set up for kids. It sleeps up to 16 + 2. The open plan living/ dining and kitchen is perfect for family living. Outside is a large outdoor play area while the basement is well supplied with toys, games and craft materials to keep the kids happy. Two of the bathrooms have full-size tubs and there’s a guest bedroom that would suit accompanying grandparents or a nanny. The Clinton House Museum nearby was the first home of Hilary and Bill Clinton and can be visited.

Why Kids Love it

The owners have 4 children and there is everything you might need for ages 0 to 10 years old. Children will adore the large basement playroom with space to run and its sectional couch, dining table, toys and crafts, games, puzzles, ride-on toys, and TV. For babies there is a high chair, strollers and a pack ‘n’ play. For older kids, there are bikes, a basketball hoop, a tree swing, and sports equipment of all kinds. The home home is very near to 2 city parks with excellent amenities for children, both featuring a creek and walk/run/bike paths. In Fayetteville, kids will enjoy the vintage and modern planes at Arkansas Air and Military Museum and the Botanical Garden of the Ozarks with themed gardens and a butterfly house.

Things to Know

Minimum stay: 2 nights. The stairs to the basement playroom can be shut off via a door for safety. Guests will have access to the entire home (main level and basement), an acre of land, and parking space at the top of the driveway. The owners are happy to provide recommendations for exploring Fayetteville and will be accessible via phone during your stay. The nearest airport is Northwest Arkansas Regional Airport (XNA), a 40-minute drive. International flights land at Will Rogers World Airport, Oklahoma City, 3 hours 30 minutes by car.

Style Notes

Mid century modern retreat. This home is full of open living spaces giving a larger family or families travelling together room to relax. The 2 levels allow for children to play freely downstairs, while parents relax on the main floor. The house was recently renovated with new bathrooms and kitchen and furnished with original and new pieces from the 1940s to 1970s – mirrors, lamps, chairs and rugs all carefully echo the era. The acre of gardens outside includes a front yard with a dining table for up to ten, where you can enjoy a family meal in the sunshine. We love the views of the birds in the front yard from the sitting room, the low-slung arm chairs, and the 1950s Heywood Wakefield furniture in the dining room.

Fayetteville , Arkansas

In the heart of the Ozarks

Arkensas’ third largest city is in the heart of the Ozarks with plenty of magical natural experiences around the corner. Chase butterflies at the Botanical Gardens, walk, jog or cycle beautiful trails or spot birds in the hills. On a rainy day, the public library is great for all ages and there are indoor play parks and the art of the Crystal Bridges Museum to explore, along with a drive-in movie theater.
