We journeyed far, and where we stopped, T'were cottage five, all hewn from rock. Before the so named, Hummingbird, it's keeper greets with kindly word. A pleasant spot to rest the feet, to lay one's frame for blissful sleep. So quaint, the quilts, and cottage walls, bits of peace of mind soon fall. And the bubbly bath, it's near divine, with loving wife, and toasted wine. Then dawns, the morn; a kingly feast, be quenched! Oh culinary beast! Tended blooms, give scent, the wind. Bless the keepers, of this well kept inn, who gave to me, a memoried grin.by Wm. Davis

3/5/08: Mike and Debbie were awesome. Receptive of our needs and willing to
help in any way. Our stay was for a short honeymoon. Breakfast was to
die for. If you went away hungry it was your own fault. The rooms were
spacious and luxurious. Elaboratly decorated and felt like home not a
motel. The rooms were clean and reasonably priced. more
3/5/08: My husband and I stayed in the humingbird cottage. It was very clean
and complimentary. The 3 course breakfasts were awsome and the
hospitality was great. We got the pampering
her package and a 1 hour massage for my husband and everything was set
up before we got there and we didn't have to do anything. We have
recomended the... more

3/3/08: Our hosts, Mike and Debbie, were hospitable and concerned about our
comfort and the quality of our stay. The cottages are comfortable,
quaint and attractive and have a great history. The breakfast the next
morning would delight any gourmet. We heartily recommend Rock Cottage
Gardens to our friends, relatives, and future guests of Eureka Springs.
2/28/08: We loved the Rock Cottages. This was our first stay...it will not be
our last. Upon arrival to departure it was a first class stay. Mike
& Debbie are the best. The room was awesome...way more than we
expected. All the little things sure make the difference. The
breakfast...what can we say other than yummy. Way more than we could...

Everything there was perfect... The room was like something out of a
story book. The Food was beautiful and delicious like something off
food network. The Innkeepers become your life long friends.
If you are looking for a simple yet elegant place to get married the
Gardeners Chapel is... more
2/24/08: This is our second stay at Rock Cottage Gardens. It was as fabulous as
our first stay which was our honeymoon 10 years ago! Each separate
cottage gives you the personal freedom to be yourself. Breakfast is
enjoyed with Mike & Debbie and all the other guests which is a
terrific way to get to know new people. The food... more
2/10/08: My husband and I were married at the Rock Cottage Gardens just last
week and it was more than anything we ever expected! Mike and Debbie
(the owners) made sure that everything from the chapel to our cottage
was perfect! The chapel was a very beautiful and intimate setting, it
made the perfect fairytale wedding for us!
We stayed in... more
2/10/08: They made it the most wonderful weekend ever...again!!! We had no idea
about the Bald Eagle sightings at Beaver Lake in January, then we
received an e-mail from Mike and Deb, letting us know about the event
and being that I am a Bird Watcher, we jumped on it!!! Of course we
stayed at the Rock Cottage Gardens, and as... more
2/9/08: You would think that Mike and Debra had been doing a B&B for years.
The cottages are beautiful ,the breakfast was first class and the host
and hostess are such sweet and kindhearted people. My husband and I
celebrated our tenth wedding anniversay. We renewed our vows in the
chapel on site. Mike did a perfect job with the ceremony.... more
2/3/08: My wife and I had a great weekend getaway to Rock Cottage Gardens. It
was our first ever B&B and we were a little worried about it. But
our hosts were friendly and accommodating and made us feel extremely
welcome. The individual cottages were cozy and comfortable and the
breakfast each morning was outstanding! Anytime of year, these little
cottages... more
1/30/08: This was my first trip to Eureka Springs and I LOVED it! The Rock
Cottage Gardens are the perfect place to stay for a romantic or a
relaxing weekend. The intimate details that the owners Debbie &
Mike have added make you feel like you are the only guests there. The
three course breakfast was one of the highlights of my stay. Debbie
& Mike are wonderful Innkeepers and are willing to make your stay
as enjoyable as possible. I will always stay at the Rock Cottage
Gardens whenever I venture back to Eureka Springs.
1/29/08: We discovered The Rock Cottage Gardens on a day when we were exploring
the charming, quaint, and friendly Victorian town of Eureka Springs. As
Bob and I were driving by, the rock cottages immediately got my
attention. The five single cottages looked liked they needed to be
placed in a childrens story book. They seemed to be glowing with the
rocks soft pastel hues. Absolutely lovely. A treasure to gaze upon.
Bob
and I were married in the Rock Cottage Gardents Chapel on January 15,
2008. We picked a perfect place, and were immensly satisfied with the
Inn Keepers, Mike and Debbie. Mike performed the ceremony in their
initmate Garden Chapel. Fresh flowers were placed in the Chapel as well
as in our room, The Lady Susan Cottage it is called. My name is Susan!
Our
Wedding Day and stay in the Lady Susan Cottage was perfect for Bob and
I. We firmly believe without Mike and Debbies personal and caring
attention the experience would not have been complete. We felt blessed
and cared about from the very beginning with their generosity of
spirit. An added pleasure are Debbie's 'yummolicious' breakfasts! She
can perform magic with her recipes. You will be spoiled with her
cooking expertise.
I really can't say enough discribing our
Wedding and stay. I would be writing a book about it, if given the
opportunity! Bob and I re-met after not seeing each other in 50 years.
That in itself is magical. So for us to find the Rock Cottage Gardens,
to discover this treasure waiting for us was perfection. The Inn
Keepers, Mike and Debbie are harmony in action. Check it out for
yourself, and see if you are taken away on a magical carpet.
With much appreciation.
Bob and Susan
1/28/08:This is a fantastic place to stay whether you are looking for romance of
just needing to relax. Debbie & Mike (the owners) are fabulous. The
food is to die for and the cottages are gorgeous.
I would
recommend that if you are going to Eureka Springs, you stay at the Rock
Cottage Gardens. Once you've had this experience, you will never stay
in another place.
1/21/08: My wife and I have stayed at several hotels and B&B's in Eureka and
this one tops them all in charm and location - not to mention one of
the best breakfasts you'll ever eat! Check their availability - you won't regret it!
1/20/08: We visit Eureka Springs several times a year and we had a wonderful
time at this very cozy B&B cabin. Breakfast... Wow... I am not
kidding both days were out of this world !!!. We truly have found a
new "Must Go" place in Eureka Springs. Everything was perfect. Mike /
Debbie we felt very welcome ..... Very Nice Two weddings occured on
site while we were there.
1/17/08: Mike and Debbie made our wedding and our stay the best.We were welcomed
in with open arms and truley made new friends. The ceremony was so
special we couldnt have asked for more. Lori and I will always cherish
our stay and can't wait till our one year anniversary to come visit
agian.
Tom and Lori
1/16/08: Adam and I enjoyed our stay. Debbie and Mike welcomed us in to their
cottage, like we we're there children. You two we're amazing. The food
was to die for. The Sausage was the best sausage I have ever tasted.
Thank you very much for performing our marrage. It will always be
remembered. Thank you, Adam & Jessica
1/8/08: A wonderful story book place to stay! My future husband and I stayed in
the crystal cottage the day after Christmas. It was the perfect place
to de-stress from the hustle and bustle. Debbie and Mike made us feel
right at home with warm cookies upon our arrival. This was our first
b&b experience, and it won't be our last. We are even contemplating
getting married in the following year there! I would recommend this to anyone!
Nancy and BJ
1/7/08: Absolutely wonderful! This is the second time we've stayed at the Rock
Cottage Gardens, and we will definitely return. Mike and Debbie are
terrific hosts; everything they do and say make you feel like you are
the only guests there. The attention to detail is amazing--no request
or need is left unaddressed. If you want a great getaway, this is your place!
1/4/08: We spent our Honeymoon with Mike & Debbie. It was the most
wonderful time we have ever had! They are two of the sweetest people
you will ever meet, we have told all our friends of the wonderful
hospitality that was shown to us by this gracious couple. They went
above and beyond our expectations!!
We stayed in the
Hummingbird Cottage and it was fabulous! We walked into a beautiful
room with fresh baked cookies sitting on our bed just waiting for us to
devour them. Breakfast was just wonderful, we didn't even have to have
lunch, we were so full. Debbie went beyoud our imaginations.
Mike was more than willing to offer places to eat our first night of
our Honeymoon, we choose Gaskins Steak House and he called ahead to
tell them we were coming. It was wonderful (and I don't like steak)!
Then we took a carriage ride included in our Honeymoon package.
We will never forget our stay at Rock Cottage Gardens and the wonderful
hosts we had. Ronnie and I will be back for years to come.
Ronnie and Sherri, Del City, Ok
1/3/08: This was the second time in 2 years that we spent some time at Rock
Cottage Gardens. New owners Mike and Debbie were superb......very
friendly...and took over quite nicely from previous owners who had an
excellent reputation as well. We plan to keep going back!
1/1/08: Through a unique series of events my husband and I ended up staying a
night at the Rock Cottage Gardens. Being frequent business travelers
that try to stay in more intimate settings, we have been in many B and
B's around the US. The Rock Cottage Gardens is one of the very best we
have been to. The Cottages are charming and spotless with a wonderful
attention to detail (I loved the citrus soap!!), but the new owners
really make this place a must while you are staying in Eureka. They
made us feel at home yet on vacation at the same time. We could not
have asked for more charming and unassuming hosts. We are looking
forward to our next visit when we can spend a little more time drinking
the fabulous coffee, getting to know Mike and Debbie over the delicious
3-course breakfast and relaxing in the private jacuzzi. You will not be disappointed!!!
