1882 Carriage House In The Heart Of The City!

The Kirkwood Cottage carriage house is located 4 blocks off I-630 - just minutes from the VA Med Center, UAMS and Children's Hospitals, in the heart of the business, South Main (SoMa) and River Market districts.

The carriage house is a good choice for business travelers (in addition to fast WiFi, we have a wireless printer there as well), or couples who want a romantic getaway and it is perfect to accommodate your extended stay guests.

Stay a month or longer for just for half the normal night rate, or stay a week or more and save 10% off the daily rate. Pricing will depend upon length of stay.

We are pet friendly - we have a Yorkie named Bear, who will no doubt greet you when you enter the courtyard.

We have 6 wireless phone chargers. You might have to take your phone out of its case to charge. There is two in each bedroom and two in the living room.

We also have two Alexa dots - one downstairs by the sofa and one upstairs on the coffee station. To listen to your favorite music, just say something like: “Alexa, play classic Christmas music”. Or ask Alexa about what is the weather forecast or where the closest Mexican restaurant is. Just start out by saying “Alexa” and then what you want to know.

A private entrance through the brick courtyard (you will enter thru the privacy fence gate with digital code to enter), hand-scraped hickory floors in living room, painted wood floors upstairs and the original brick floors in entry and kitchen. Two gas log heaters, period light fixtures, and a wood-burning stove add to the historic nature of this upscale 1,470 square foot barn.

Updated features like fast WiFi and two flat panel SmartTV’s with Direct TV, HBO, free Netflix and Amazon Prime (pay-per-view is NOT included; if you choose to rent a movie, please leave payment for it), a large shower in the downstairs bathroom, another full bathroom upstairs, a full size washer and dryer, and quality mattresses in the two adjoining bedrooms ensure you the comfort you deserve.

The kitchen is furnished with a side by side refrigerator with ice maker, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, two coffee makers (12 cup and Keurig coffee maker) and self-cleaning oven. Dishes, silverware and utensils are included for your convenience, as well as thick, fluffy towels and linens. We have a second Keurig coffee maker upstairs on the coffee bar.

The enclosed courtyard has a small pond with waterfall and a gas grill, should you want to cook or entertain outdoors.

We also have a crib with changing attachment, children’s eating plates and utensils, a high chair to set on one of the dining chairs. We also have a pop up play pen in the upstairs walk in closet. Iron and ironing board is in that walk in closet too and extra blankets including baby blankets.

Automatic lighting means you never come home to a dark house.

The carriage house is located in the Governor's Mansion historic neighborhood and is great for walking or bike riding, with an active arts and entertainment district just 3 blocks away on South Main.

The River Market is quite close as well, with many restaurants, bars, shopping, and the Clinton Presidential Library. Walgreens, a grocery store and post office are just blocks away.

Two night minimum preferred but will accept single nights. Save 50% by booking a month or longer!

Owners live in the main house and is separated from the carriage house by a brick courtyard.

If you need something, call us, text us or just send us a message. We value our privacy and respect yours as well.

City bus is just a half-block away. Easy walking to a number of things as well. Bike riders (rental available downtown) would have a field day as the city streets are flat and easy to travel.

We had a great time in Little Rock and really enjoyed our stay at the Carriage House. Donna was fantastic and responsive. Location was central and convenient to everything we needed. Should we find ourselves back in Little Rock I hope the Carriage House will be available!

Charming and great location
Great location to restaurants in downtown Little Rock. Being pet friendly was a huge plus! Space for our small dog to walk and potty. Older home with historic charm. The 2 upstairs beds require you to walk through one to get to the other which worked out for our toddler but might be awkward for other guests. Great communication with owner and easy checkin and access etc.

Charming carriage house stay in SoMa
This carriage house was charming and cozy. The courtyard flowers were in bloom for spring, and we enjoyed our al fresco breakfast, from a local bakery two blocks away in the heart of SoMa Little Rock. The host was super helpful and very pleasant! All in all, our trip to my old hometown was everything I wished for - THANKS!

Fabulous Vintage cottage that feels like home
Everything about this location deserves more than five stars! This area of Little Rock is enchanting and full of culture and character. From the moment we turned on the street to the time we layes down for bed, we felt comfortable and at ease. The courtyard heading into the cottage is beautiful and private. The cottage itself is loaded with charm and small details that make you feel cared for and right at home. Donna was super helpful and attentive without being intrusive. We even met her sweet as pie little pup Bear that my 3 year old little girl loved! Our only regret is that we weren’t staying longer. Thanks so much for sharing your home with us!

Cute, boho carriage house was lots of fun!
My husband and I enjoyed our visit with our Little Rock family while we were in town for a medical appointment. Donna is so helpful and responsive! The place is adorably eccentric, with all the supplies we could possibly need to be comfortable. Thanks, Donna!
