The location is just off the river, so you can walk down and fish yards from your room. The main drag of Cotter is only a 5 minute driver or so, and I went there for breakfast at White Sands (excellent food) before heading down to the river. Stayed here in December, so it was cold. Not a lot of people though, and the fishing was excellent as usual here. Caught a bunch of fish before heading home. Bottom line, this is a solid spot to sleep, shower, and wind down from a busy day of fishing. Nice room, comfortable bed, and great location.

The restaurant is nice with great views and the food was decent, but not great. The breakfast was underwhelming and served buffet style...very bland and barely warm. I'd skip the breakfast and make your own. The fishing was good and with the guides - we did two days. Their top guide is a little arrogant, but knows how to find the trout and will drift fish rather than anchor, which was nice. Would I return? Probably. However, I'd make most of my meals in the cabin and just do a dinner in the restaurant. One thing that's nice is they will cook your catch in the restaurant and prepare to your specifications.

Beautifully renovated, amazing amenities, great location and lots of amazing little details and decor - Including a historic Cotter gallery wall. ***The rates are So reasonable. You can rent the whole place for your family or friend vacay. My room was spacious and filled with windows and light, and the beds are comfy! It's so charming and felts like a luxury adult lodge/resort/summer camp. The big open communal spaces are fantastic - the living room, which also includes rustic picnic benches for dining & the big open kitchen has huge, dual refrigerators and lots of prep space. They have every kitchen accessory that you could need. I love that they have coffee at every entrance and in different locations around the hotel. Great hosts who provide lots of local dining and activity information. Commercial hotel is a must if you're staying in or around the Cotter and White river or Buffalo River area! Or just make a stop over and make sure you take a tour of big Springs Park, a dip in the swimming hole or a walk across the bridge or breakfast at the Sands. Great kayaking and fishing are minutes away.
