This is it!

We booked an overnight stay here both going and returning from a road trip to Alabama. We were delighted with the charm and decor. If we ever come through Little Rock again and need a place to stay… this is it.

Beautiful! Just like the description!

This place was dreamy. I stayed with my dog and it was so accommodating. It had a fenced yard with gorgeous plants and outdoor seating. Inside was a cozy bed and kitchen with everything you needed. The bathroom even had a Jacuzzi tub! The breakfast was great too. Each day the food would be left in the fridge so I could cook it just how I like.This place was so close to Soma and was walking distance to several stores, restaurants, and museums. Highly recommend to anyone!

My Stay at May’s Cottage

I stayed for one night at this beautiful and well-appointed cottage. It is part of a real bed and breakfast and includes a living area with bed, a kitchen/dining room, and a bathroom area complete with a jacuzzi bathtub. I enjoyed my short stay!

Cute but needs some work

Had some water damage on the outside. There was some mold on the shower curtains. I think there needs to be a bigger trash can for the kitchen it was bathroom size. The decor was very cute. Furniture comfy.

A Day at May's.

Loved it. Very cozy and comfortable. Should've done more research on the area since never been there before. A street map in the cottage would be wonderful. However, we would stay there again if ever in the area and try the waffles and sausage. It was a nice pastry selection for breakfast. Thanks again S&D

Charming Stay

The outdoor area was lush and green with several seating areas. I would recommend bringing a a citronella candle to better enjoy the outdoor experience. The accommodations were charming and just as depicted in the listing. Will try to return in the fall.

Quaint and charming historic cottage

Like stepping back in time. Cozy and romantic decor. Immaculate. Private cottage tucked away at rear of old Victorian house. Quiet. Private, fenced courtyard with patio furniture and lighting for ambience; safe place for our small dog. Lots of lovely touches with breakfast delivered each morning! A memorable stay.

Sweetly decorated older home

This is a well loved home divided into separate rentals. It was clean and comfortable. Nice touches everywhere. Wish we could have used the outdoor space but it was too cold. This is not an upscale area but you can take a short drive to some nice shops and restaurants. Thank you for being dog friendly:)!

Awesome!!! Loved it!

We spent six nights in May's Cottage. We loved it! The cottage is quaint and cozy. We liked having a cottage as it gave us flexibility with a full kitchen, sitting room off the kitchen, jet tub/shower combo, and living room/bedroom. The gated outside area was comfortable and relaxing. The innkeeper was quick to reply to my questions. The breakfasts were great with a variety to choose from. The location was in a convenient area, close to downtown and other area attractions. I highly recommend staying here!

Thrilled with this charming cottage!

My daughter and I visited Little Rock and stayed three nights at May’s Cottage. It was such a lovely place, the property is shaded by huge trees and has patios with lights everywhere! It was so nice to have an old-fashioned screen door so we could see the lights at night and hear the birds in the mornings. The home is centrally located with super easy access to downtown. Easy, private parking in at the rear of the property. The Innkeeper is very response to messages and made sure our stay was a delight. This is a large, 1800’s home divided into cottages. If we ever visit Little Rock again, we will be staying at the same property and trying out a different cottage there. 10/10

Perfectly Located Getaway

My husband and I stayed here for a weekend getaway for our anniversary. The location was perfect. We drove downtown and parked at the Library and just walked into town to enjoy the downtown activities. The house was clean and organized in a way that made our stay so nice. We LOVED the option of breakfast each morning. Everything we tried was fantastic. The jetted tub was a great way to relax after a day of walking around. The property manager was always kind and very accommodating. Highly recommend!!

Cozy welcoming home away from home

We travel to Little Rock frequently to visit our daughter. We love to walk the neighborhoods and areas around downtown and the river. This location just west of SoMa is great and is within walking distance from some of our favorite spots. Our lab Scout was welcomed as well. The cottage is part of an old Victorian house and was charming. The included breakfast options were great, as well as the hospitality of the host. Our only suggestion for an even better stay is a new mattress. The bed was not bad for 1 night but it was sagging into the middle and not very comfortable. We did. Or sleep very well the 2nd and 3rd night. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and look forward to checking out the other Rosemont cottages with extended family later in the year.

About the host

Hosted by Susan Maddx

After a demanding career in advertising, I moved home to Little Rock from Dallas, settled in the city's incredible historic neighborhood where I grew up and began Act III of my life ... so far my favorite. I love being a cottage innkeeper, working from my own 1880s farmhouse surrounded by peace , beauty and wonderful guests who seem to enjoy my updated, vintage cottages.

Why they chose this property

Rosemont is a farmhouse built in 1880 still retaining much of the original construction. I moved here from a career in Dallas advertising with the desire to restore this lovely historic house and turn it into my home and an inn. After 18 years of traditional innkeeping, I converted the space to private cottages. I love everything about my life in the house, the neighborhood and my cottages.

What makes this property unique

Private entrance to each cottage through the common garden with off-street parking behind the garden steps away from your cottage. Each cottage has either a gated balcony or fenced & gated private garden. Privacy, seclusion and casual luxury are the hallmarks of Rosemont hospitality.
