This charming 1940’s Airbnb cottage in Bentonville was remodeled on the HGTV show Fixer to Fabulous by locals Dave and Jenny Marrs.

We stayed here recently and found it to be a great option for a visit to Bentonville.

We felt that the remodel managed to retain the vintage character of the house while adding modern luxury.

Review of Idyll Cottage in Bentonville, Arkansas

Interior of the Airbnb Cottage in Bentonville

I really think that this remodel gave the home a perfect blend of modernization with a lived-in 40’s cottage feel.

The interior felt warm from the minute we walked in. You step into a living area with a pretty wooden vaulted ceiling with beams.

The colors are neutral but inviting.

We also loved the artwork throughout the house.

The living room flows right into a chef’s kitchen, complete with a large island. It had everything you might need for your stay.

This 3 bedroom 2 bath house is not large, but we found everything to be cozy and really well thought out.

The primary bedroom had a very comfortable king bed and there were queens in the two smaller bedrooms.

Honestly, the size was perfect for our group which included me and my husband, our daughter, and my mom.

Location

One of our favorite things about the house was the location. It was close to all the highlights of Bentonville.

We did not have bikes with us but if we had we could have biked almost anywhere we wanted to go. It was also close to Airship Coffee which is one of our favorites!

Here are some of the distances:

NOTE: This house is in a neighborhood that is growing and changing. During our stay there was construction going on around the house. It looked like most of it was fairly close to completion.

Here are some more great things that you might want to do while you are visiting Bentonville.

Outdoor space

One of the best things about this house is the GREAT outdoor living space.

There is a covered patio, with comfortable seating, a place to eat, and a grill.

The large fenced backyard was perfect for my daughter to run around and play and the fire pit was perfect for enjoying a cool evening and making S’mores.

Basically this house is a little oasis, a perfect place to unwind after your bike rides or museum visits.
