Cliff Cottage Inn - Luxury B&B Suites & Cottages

I was in Eureka alone and had no plans to stay in a B&B since I always associated them with couples. I was so wrong. From the minute I walked through the doors of the cottage I was greeted like a special guest and found a beautiful inn that was owned and run by two of the most well travelled, enjoyable people! My room was inviting, wonderfully furnished with all the comforts of home. I will return to this Inn many times.

It is always such a pleasure to have friendly and thoughtful guests stay at our inn -- makes all the work and efforts we put into preparing our rooms and breakfasts worthwhile!

The absolutely best part of our recent trip to Eureka Springs was our stay at The Cliff Cottages in Collette’s Mini-suite! The proprietress provided detailed advance information so that we had no difficulty arriving at our destination! (Which is a challenge in this hilly and venerable Victorian village!) The attention she and her “elf” gave to our accommodations made us feel quite comfortably “at home” - with a luxurious French twist! Little touches like, being welcomed by the sound of twittering birds, wine in the ‘fridge, romantic double Jacuzzi in the corner, books by and about Collette, wide selection of videos to choose from (and the one we selected “just happened” to go with the room perfectly)! Conversations with our host and hostess upon our arrival and departure were enthralling¿! Plus they are both as warmly interested in listening to their guests stories as they are in sharing their own! And then there were the breakfasts¿¿ Oh, my¿! Words cannot do justice! We had ours, served by the elf, outside on our own private tiny deck, sheltered from the sun and fanned by a cooling draft under the cliff wall backing The Place Next Door! I do recommend purchasing A Cook’s Book of Epicuria as a memento of your stay! Sandra’s adventures will amaze you, and her recipes are delightful!

Awesome B&B! Right from the start before we even got there, Sandra (the proprietor) showed caring detail in how to get there, where to go etc. Once we got there, we were very happy with the close walking proximity to the town and all it offers. Sandra was very welcoming and very sweet. We stayed in the Alfred Lord Tennyson suite and love it! Very clean, cozy and comfortable. We loved the front and back porch lounging areas and the views it offered, the Jacuzzi and the fun outdoor shower along the bluffs. Great place, amazing character and AMAZING gourmet breakfast delivered to the front door every morning (which we also bought her book and read it on the way home. Has some of the great recipes she cooks in there in addition to great stories about her very interesting life). Highly recommended! Thanks Sandra!!!!! We will be back soon!

We're thrilled that our guests had such a good time and it was totally a pleasure preparing and delivering our famous breakfasts to their suite each morning! Makes such a big difference to us as innkeepers when the guests enjoy our breakfasts! Makes all the effort and love we put into preparing these labor-intensive breakfasts worthwhile!

We celebrated out 8th wedding anniversary at The Cliff Cottage. It was in a fantastic location but it was all the extras that made it perfect. Sandy and her "elf" had delicious treats waiting for us when we arrived to our room. The "elf" even remembered us on our anniversary with a special treat. We had planned on sleeping late each morning but the breakfasts were sooooo good that we found ourselves getting up early and waiting on our private patio for the elf to deliver breakfast. We have been to many B&Bs but this place stands out and we plan to return many more times. Be sure and ask Sandy for good eateries....she was right on with her recommendations.

What a pleasure to be Sandra's guests. Sanda's rooms were comfortable and inspiring for a long weekend getaway. Her breakfast was superb every morning and she offered many great insights to enjoy Eureka Springs beyond the typical tourist experience. I especially loved the stacks of books relevant to our room's theme. I highly recommend Cliff Cottage Inn.

The cliff cottages are romantic, magical, a place to reconnect with the one you love! From it's huge jetted tubs to its outside warm shower that is built into the cliff, this place will just take your breath away. We loved it so much we went back a few weeks later (yes a few weeks) and stayed again. The cottages are remarkable and the breakfast is to die for. There service was like family, the elf was so quiet and sweet. The coffee was AMAZING!!! With cute little sugar cubes to go into it. Special homemade treats when u arrive are in your room with wine and little bowls of sweets for the sugar tooth! You could sit outside on your private porch and watch eureka pass by!! It is the best place I have ever been and I will be going back soon!! Don't miss this place to stay if you are in the area!!!

What a treat to have this delightful couple stay with us and twice in a row, yet! The fellow came first alone ahead of time to check out all our suites as he wanted something that his beloved would truly enjoy. What a thoughtful fellow! The elf was thrilled to have them stay again and thoroughly enjoyed doing special breakfasts for them on their second stay. We always feel so blessed when a couple finds us and then returns again. Makes this all worthwhile for us! :)

My husband and I had never stayed in a B&B before. When we visited his parents in Russellville Arkansas we choose to spend one day and night in Eureka Springs seeing the sites with his parents. We tried contacting several B&Bs in Eureka before we reached Sandra, many innkeepers were unavailable due to it being the off-peak season. We were about to finally give up out of frustration and stay in a hotel(like we ALWAYS do) until we reached Sandra. Sandra was a true delight! Her Cliff Cottage Inn was wonderful, every detail was attended to with meticulous care. The Colette suite we stayed in was magnificent, with a lovely view of the Local Flavor and main street. This was definitely one of those once in a life time experiences for us. We feel that all other B&Bs we stay in in the future now have the bar-raised because of how magnificent our stay was at Sandra's B&B. My spirit was revitalized at Sandra's Cliff Cottage in a way that I simply can't explain, you'd have to visit it to understand. The only thing that surpassed our initial experience(s) at her B&B was the breakfast she and Carl provided. I'm very glad that our first B&B experience was at Sandra's Cliff Cottage Inn.

It was so much fun having Jessica and her family stay with us especially as she is also a writer! We had a great time sharing about our writing and I was extremely pleased to learn from her later in an email that she had purchased a copy of Artist's Way which was the book that helped me get unblocked in my own writing when my 23 year-old daughter was killed by a drunk driver. Thanks, Jessica,for taking the time to write a review and I'll be looking for your name in the roster of newly published books!

My wife and I love to stay at elegant inns and Cliff Cottage Inn was far and away the best we have been to. The atmosphere is full of Victorian charm. The two-room suite (with a big front porch) we stayed in (Robert Louis Stevenson) is beautifully decorated with antiques and memorabilia about Stevenson, the famed author of Treasure Island. Upon arrival, we were delighted to find a lovely bottle of white wine chilled and waiting for us in our in-suite frig. We also discovered that Cliff Cottage Inn's suites were far more private than others we had stayed in. Best of all, we didn't have to get up and dress for breakfast with a bunch of strangers - the Cliff Cottage elf delivered a full gourmet breakfast each morning right to our door, on a silver tray, no less! Wonderful food and very classy presentation! When we were ready to venture forth, Cliff Cottage was ideal for exploring Eureka Springs,, because it is the only inn right downtown. All the other inns are located on the historic loop, which meant we would have had to drive and find parking each time we wanted to go out. Being at Cliff Cottage, we could roll out of bed and walk a few steps to Main Street and the heart of the historic downtown with all the shops and restaurants right at hand. Privacy, location, and outstanding service - it desn't get better than that for a romantic getaway! We will defintely come back and will tell our friends as well.

We are so grateful that we have such wonderful guests who take the time to write about their stay. Before guests arrive, we put as many loving vibes as we can into the suites and cottages so that the guests will have a memorable experience and it is fun to find out via reviews that all our efforts were worthwhile! Thank you for being such kind and wonderful guests!

Our stay in the Emily Dickinson room was just marvelous. The room was so cozy and comfy. The breakfasts divine!! The location is perfect. We truly hated to leave. Two nights was not near enough, but better some than none!! My dear sister, Dixie, couldn't have been more pleased with her birthday present. The memories we made will last forever and will bring a smile and warm fuzzies every time we think about our trip. Thanks so much to Sandra and Carla for their efforts in making Cliff Cottage Inn a truly wonderful experience. Marilyn Kane Tulsa, OK

It was a delight to have Marilyn and Dixie as our guests! We were totally thrilled when we received a package from Dixie who had hand-painted four lovely wine glasses as a token of her appreciation for the fun time they both had. Thanks, Dixie and Marilyn! We love to have guests like you two! All best, The elf at Cliff Cottage Inn

On our recent quest for the perfect out-of-the-way cottage, my sister and I found the Cliff Cottage Inn Bed and Breakfast. We stayed in the Tennyson Suite, perched above the quaint town of Eureka Springs, Arkansas. The suite itself was adorable with antiques, artwork, and of course writings of Alfred Lord Tennyson. Sandra, our generous hostess, had so many little delights awaiting us: wine and soft drinks, cookies and candies, bath gels and salts for the jacuzzi. Behind the house were a private deck and an enclosed outdoor shower that seemed to grow out of the bluffs. How could we have happened upon a place so comfortable yet so close to nature?! The gourmet breakfasts brought to our door were almost too beautiful to eat. But we took pictures and then enjoyed the homemade cooking from the front porch. Delicious doesn't begin to describe the experience. Sandra helped us find shopping, music, historic places to visit, and good restaurants, all within walking distance. But now, looking back, the most memorable times were spent at the charming cottage. At times, online pictures and descriptions of getaways have, alas, been "too good to be true". Not this time! This B&B actually surpassed our expectations in every way.

We returned to Eureka Springs after a too long 18 years hoping to stay in a B&B that would approach the wonderful experience that we had last enjoyed. Our hopes were exceeded by this wonderful find at the edge of the historic downtown. Perched between a bluff and the main street is a grouping of lovely Victorian cottages. Our accomodations, The Emily Dickinson Suite, was a treasure of antiques in three spacious rooms. Breakfast was brought to our door at 9:15 and what a sumptuous treat it was! One expects a meal that is above the ordinary at a B&B, but this was beyond what could be hoped for. The fare was imaginative, extremely tasty and the presentation was equal to that of the best restaurants. We would recommend Cliff Cottage Inn without reservation and will definitely return.

My wife's input was, "OH WOW, how lovely"! Very romantic and cozy. Personal service (Easter eggs were left in our room). Fantastic gourmet breakfasts delivered to our room. Great suggestions for sights and dining. Perfect location for shopping. It has it's own off street parking, which is a major plus for this destination. We really enjoyed our stay.

This is a great location with very easy access to all the shopping. Also if you want to see the town, the trolley station is right there in front of your room. The room was beautifully decorated. The food was great and what a treat to have it delivered right to your door. I would stay here again without a doubt.

We very much enjoyed every aspect of our stay at the Cliff Cottage Inn. The breakfasts which Sandra prepared and personally delivered every morning were mouth-watering and filling! We especially enjoyed visitng with her and hearing about her journey to the Galapagos Islands. Make sure to get your copy of her cookbook before you check-out!

My review is a bit delayed, but I felt I owe it to Sandra at Cliff Cottage Inn even if a few months have passed. A few weeks before my wife and I were to celebrate our 15th Anniversary I began researching a special place to go for the weekend. I looked at many hotels and B&B's in the Eureka Springs area, but eventually settled on Cliff Cottage based on the outstanding reviews. There was much deliberation on my part, settling on a specific room at Cliff Cottage, as they all looked great. After looking at the pictures of the various room configurations over and over and speaking with Sandra on the phone, I eventually settled on the Robert Louis Stephenson Suite. When we arrived we were pleasantly surprised at how clean and well decorated our room was...it was absolutely perfect for our getaway. The bed was very comfortable, parking was convenient (right next to our room), the room had the perfect ambiance and lighting, and the new jet tub/shower was divine! I can not even begin to describe how wonderful the breakfast was that was delivered to our doorstep each morning - perfectly sized portions and each bite bursting with flavor..."gourmet" does not do justice to the entire presentation! We enjoyed our breakfast on the front porch overlooking the street below which made it more serene. I would be remiss if I did not mention the treasure of a book containing Sandra's personal memoirs in the room...what an amazing woman! - (practically worth the price just to read about her life and amazing adventures) Sandra was "above and beyond" expectations from the time of reservation, to check in, to check out, and even followed up after we got home. I would HIGHLY recommend Cliff Cottage Inn for a romantic getaway or any other special event! Our entire stay will be remembered for many years to come and stand out in my mind as a very special time alone with my bride! Thank you Sandra for making everything so perfect!

We found Cliff Cottage Inns on an internet web search and we were not disappointed. Sandra goes above and beyond to make your stay everything you dreamed of! From start to finish, Sandra leaves no stone unturned. The cottage was decorated beautifully. It was quiet, comfortable and had all the amenities of home! We stayed in the Oscar Wilde and enjoyed the fireplace, the hot tub (private!) out back and a nightly view of the city and the Crescent Hotel. Eureka Springs was a delightful town with lots to do and Cliff Cottage Inn truly exceeded our expectations!

My recent stay at Cliff Cottage Inn was delightful. The innkeeper has wonderful stories and is very pleasant to deal with. The breakfasts were, indeed, gourmet and far exceeded what I would have expected based upon staying at ohter B&B's. Best of all, the breakfasts were delivered right to the door of my suite, on a silver tray, no less! The bed was very comfortable and the decor was quite charming and romantic, with lots of special little touches. I would highly recommend Cliff Cottage Inn and certainly plan to stay there again as soon as I can find another excuse for a romantic and fun getaway!

This was our first B&B experience. We stayed in the Sarah Bernhardt Suite and loved every minute of it! The breakfasts were by far the best we've ever had anywhere. Great location, within walking distance to the main strip. The jacuzzi, private back patio, and comfy front porch were also nice extras. We both agree it was a wonderful experience and give it our highest recommendation. We definitely hope to stay there again.

Our stay at the Cliff Cottage Inn was wonderful. My husband and I were looking for a romantic place to celebrate our 34th anniversary and we came across the Cliff Cottage Inn online. We read that it was named one of the six "Most Romantic Inns in the South" and that was it we had to stay there. When we arrived, it not only met our expectations, but exceeded them. The room was lovely, the scenery around the inn was fantastic, and the breakfast was to die for, it was so yummy. Sandra went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure our stay in Eureka Springs memorable. We would recommend Cliff Cottage Inn to anyone who is looking for a relaxing get a way!

My wife and I wanted to head over to Eureka Springs from Tulsa for a little getaway for our 18th anniversary. We didn't know where we wanted to stay as there are so many cottages, B&Bs, motels, and hotels there and we are very discriminating regarding our accommodations, so we just headed over to Eureka and thought we'd pick one in person. Well, after visiting two of the landmark hotels and calling several others, we were still left wanting and decided to call Cliff Cottage Inn to see what they had available. (some friends of ours had stayed there 14 years ago and said they enjoyed it) Sandra met us with great geniality and graciously showed us the places she had available. She was VERY accommadating to us. We found the atmosphere to be warm, peaceful, and welcoming and the rooms to be very clean and nicely appointed with several exquisite antiques, each suite with a different flavor and named with a different author and decorated accordingly. They were all in impeccable condition. The food was just amazing! I just wish we had more time to spend there if not for the breakfasts only. When you want to know where else to eat in Eureka, ask Sandra and she'll direct you to the best places. With a little prodding, she'll relate some of her exciting experiences although she's a considerate host and will give you all the alone time you desire. We've had a few B&B hosts that could take some lessons from her. We'll definitely be coming back to hear more of her delightful accounts of her astonishing adventures! Ryan & Robin - Tulsa, OK

Can't say enough about Cliff Cottage Inn! It is our favorite place to stay in Eureka Springs. Great food and great rooms! We are very satisified repeat customers!

Our stay at the Inn was fantastic!!! We stayed for our honeymoon and then our one year anniversary!! Love the jacuzzi for two and the shower outside. Loved looking at the blue sky. The location was GREAT! Just steps from shops and dining. The breakfast was so tasty and nothing like we thought. The Cliff Cottage Inn exceeded are expectations in so many ways!!! We got to stop and enjoy each other in a very romantic and relaxing setting. We will be back for many more anniversaries.

This is our 2nd stay at Cliff Cottages, and both times exceeded our expections. We come here for the beauty of Eureka Springs, but also for the wonderful accomodations that your B&B provides

I knew I'd chosen the right place before I saw it based on the wonderful service I received while booking my reservation. It was a girls' weekend for 3 women and Cliff Cottage Inn was perfect. The rooms were lovely Victorian, roomy yet cozy. Bath was spacious with large Jacuzzi. Breakfasts were fabulous, and the service continued to be first rate. Highly recommended.
