    We were there for a couple nights to fish, hike and explore the area for the first time. We were happy to be right on the river. We sat on the chairs overlooking the river. The fishermen with us spent ample time wade fishing up and down from the cabin. Trout were caught. We were 6 minutes from Cranor’s lodge where we got a guide for the day. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook our dinner on the grill and use the stove and oven. We had 4 of us - and there was room to comfortably sleep 2 more. We enjoyed our morning while it rained in the screened in porch. Water was released from the dam while we were there and we got to watch the water rise and recess again. We played games that the host left. We were able to do laundry before leaving. Bathrooms and kitchen were well appointed. The space was clean and the host was friendly and very responsive!We hope to be back!

    Me and my buddies have been coming to the White river for many years to trout fish and have stayed in multiple locations with differing accommodations and this is by far the best that we have stayed in yet. You will be hard pressed to find a location that is as well stocked with everything you would need for your stay. We will definitely be using them again on our trip next year as long as we're all able to travel again.

    I cannot say enough good things about this place!! From the moment we booked until we checked out, it was phenomenal. Charlie communicated with us about everything, entered all my questions, and made sure we knew about anything and everything we could ask. The house itself was perfect. Had every single thing we needed and stuff we didn’t realize we needed. One of us may have forgotten a toothbrush. It was comfortable, clean, and we felt right at home. All the extra touches made us feel like we were very important to them; the snacks, the extra supplies and just the overall vibe. If you get the opportunity to go to the White River, I need a great place to stay, this is a great place to do that.

    A group of four guys stayed here for two nights while fly fishing on the White River. The location is perfect, giving you quick access to the river. The house has everything you need. The outdoor space is wonderful and the screened in porch is an excellent spot to sit and watch the river go by. We will definitely stay here again.

    Great house with all the amenities. Great areas to sit outside by the fire pit with supplied wood for a nightly fire in the cool weather. Great screened in back porch to sip coffee and view the river and discuss our fishing plans for the day.

    We went to relax while looking at the water and fish a little and we got just what we wanted. It was one of the most relaxing vacations we've ever had! Perfect weather, good fishing just outside the back door, and several great outside spots to enjoy it all. Plus, Cotter has a nice little park/boat launch area that we enjoyed too.Our group was supposed to be 3 couples but ended up with 2. Very comfortable for 2 but would have been okay with 3 and pushing a couple twins together. Had a nice screened in porch, outdoor relaxation area with a view, and chairs down in a grassy area by the water with an even better view. The inside was pretty nice but, other than sleeping and the kitchen, we didn't use it much. Beds were fine and the two bathrooms were nice but we were impressed by the extras in the kitchen. Most rentals have the bare minimum and terrible pots/pans but this was well stocked. Lots of spices, oil, plastic bags, laundry detergent, and all those little things that are annoying to buy while on vacation for one use. We cooked almost all our meals at the house and had no issues. They provided gas and charcoal grills too.We rented a boat in Cotter but also floated from the house in kayaks down to the Cotter boat launch which took just over 2 hours. When the water level was low, we used waders and waded out from the back yard and caught a limit of trout. My wife even caught a nice brown and a bruiser rainbow just wading in a little ways in water shoes!

    We love staying at Tailwater when we plan a fly fishing trip. The home is well equipped with special touches as snacks and water. It was rather chilly this weekend and the home was warm and comfortable to come into after a cold day on the water. The location is perfect for anyone visiting the area and especially anyone wanting easy access to fish the White River.

    Had a great week enjoying the screened in porch in the morning, while drinking our coffee. Loved watching the boats on the river throughout the day. We were very pleased with how well the kitchen and bathrooms were stocked! My husband worked on his laptop some and the WiFi was more than sufficient for what he needed! Drove over to Mountain Home and went to the college for an event. Communication with the owner was top-notch!! It’s a beautiful place to unwind and relax!

    Your accommodations were perfect and the location overlooking the river could not have been any better. The covered parking area was an extra bonus that is not often available and other accommodations we have used. We are looking forward to the next trip back up to the white river and will definitely look forward to staying at your facility.
