The Best Historic District Victorian Cottage in Eureka Springs

Experience Eureka Springs the same way residents did over one hundred years ago...in this lovely home in the very heart of Eureka's Historic District.

Built in 1885, this cottage is in the National Register of Historic Homes and is one of the finest examples of the many beautifully restored Historic Victorian homes of this era. It is furnished with many period antiques.

You will find that The Bodie House is a charming Victorian cottage with all the gingerbread trim, located in the heart of the Historic District. You are mere steps (next door) from the trolley stop or a short stroll to the historic downtown for fine dining, unique shops, boutiques and art galleries. Should you decide to venture out for some hiking, horseback riding, boating or fishing, all are found close by. Eureka Springs is surrounded by lakes, rivers, streams and even caves, all just minutes from the Bodie House.

This Historic Victorian cottage is beautifully furnished including a full kitchen and laundry room. Hi speed wireless internet, flat screen high definition TV, DVD, and CD/FM/AM stereo add to your enjoyment. The private deck overlooks and has a full view of the Eureka Springs Valley and the Christ of the Ozarks. A friendly front porch is perfect for people and parade watching. Or, if you like, just enjoy a quiet moment experiencing the natural beauty of Eureka Springs at the Bodie House.

A dining room offers a cozy place to enjoy your meals or a game of cards. There is plenty of room to spread out and relax at The Bodie House.

The Bodie House is a great choice for couples or families. It is the perfect choice for four. Two bedrooms with queen beds.

A stay in the Bodie House offers privacy, comfort and rest not found at bed and breakfast rentals. You won’t have anyone staying in the room next door, and you won’t have breakfast with strangers! Yet, you will find all the style and class of a bed and breakfast.

The Bodie House will complement your vacation in every way. From the quiet surroundings to the beautiful views, you will enjoy every aspect.

Rates start at $199 (off season) to $229 per night during high season, for up to 4 people, based on a 2-night minimum on weekends. Please call for rental information. Check out our website at TheBodieHouse.com.

Please be advised that the maximum number of guests is four, including children (children under 12 are not permitted). The property is closely monitored by neighbors and the property manager.

Lovely Stay

My adult daughter and I stayed a few days in this wonderful, vintage property. The location was perfect. Just far enough away for quiet but easily walkable to town. The home served our needs perfectly. It is very cute and decorated with the theme of the town in mind. It is a very peaceful and cozy home and we can highly recommend a stay here!

Great weekend getaway

Enjoyed sitting on the porch with our coffee. We spent most of our time in the historic/shopping area, which was 10-15 minute walk. Crescent hotel is a short walk up the hill. It is an older house with a few quirks (taller folk watch your head going into the upstairs bathroom) but we had those expectations so didn’t bother us. The stairs down to the bedrooms was steep, but wasn’t an issue for us.

Cute Victorian home

The Bodie House is beautiful and comfortable. The stairs can be a little treacherous, as they are pretty steep. Overall it is a great location and very cute home!

Charming Bodie House

We had a fabulous stay at this very charming cottage. It is a very comfortable and a perfect place to relax. The location is in the beautiful historic district. It is easy to access any of the places you want to visit. The contact person Joe is very friendly and helpful with anything you might need. We had a lovely stay

Eureka Springs Getaway

The Bodie House is situated in a historical neighborhood of beautiful period homes. It is a small home but very comfortable for a small group. We enjoyed spending time on the downstairs back deck--drinking wine and enjoying the beautiful weather. The trolley stop is feet away which makes for a convenient ride into downtown (a 2-day pass is $10). We enjoyed our stay here.

Perfect location. short walk to all of Eureka Springs. The stairs are steep, but manageable. The shower may be off putting, but its clean, functional, and comfortable. The tub is great for a long soak.

Paradise

Loved my stay in this quaint vintage home, in my fav town ever!! However, one of the beds has a very hard mattress on it and my daughter had a hard time getting comfortable. I loved sitting on the front porch…so peaceful! Also, my daughter stated the kitchen sink water was not on, therefore she didn’t wash the one glass that was used.

Great cottage in perfect location

What a neat little cottage! Perfect location & size for our 2 couples. A little updating of the shower would make this place just about perfect but still a great place to stay. Bedrooms & showering are all downstairs so know that going in. Hosts were absolutely wonderful. Parking on the street was plenty for our 2 vehicles as well

Sweet home and great location

Easy rental process. Quiet neighborhood and convenient to downtown and Crescent Hotel. We went to the area for a quick get away and change of scenery and and left relaxed. Home is clean, and has what you need. As others stated you need to be sure footed to get to the bedrooms but I would think that would be the expectation for any home from this era. Great front porch to start and end your day.

Great Location, super cute

This house was great! So charming and welcoming. Host had fresh flowers and some snacks set out for our arrival. Check in was easy and it was very clean. We enjoyed the easy walk to Brews and downtown. AC units kept us comfortable and the deck was great. The decor was perfect for the period. The first few steps leading to the downstairs (where both bedrooms are located) were narrow and pretty steep, so if you have someone that can’t navigate steep stairs know that. Our crew was good though. We would stay here again, great place.

Perfect Get Away from It All

This is the second time we've stayed at Bodie Cottage. It's close to downtown, but far enough away to avoid all the traffic (auto and pedestrian). We enjoyed sitting on both the front and back porches to enjoy the wonderful fall weather. In the evening's we enjoyed the sitting area for reading. The Internet works well, we were able to get caught up on British Baking via Netflix. We would definitely stay a third time.

Great Location

We had a great stay here. The only thing that I can say is if you or your people staying have mobility issues this is not the house for you. The shower and tub are both downstairs and the stairway would be very difficult to navigate if there were issues. If you are healthy with no issues, then this is the place for you. It fits perfectly with the whole Eureka vibe! We definately will be back

Great location to downtown and Crescent Hotel.

Was a little difficult getting up and down to bedrooms but we made it. I don’t remember if this is mentioned in the VRBO ad but would be good to let folks know. Also had an ant problem in the kitchen. Owner very accommodating to bring another key when we locked the other one inside the house. Thank you!
