Beautifully Decorated
This is our second time staying at the property and it did not disappoint. This set up works wonderfully for a family and is well equipped with everything you will need for your stay. As an air b and b owner myself, this property is expertly maintained with personal touches that set it above other rentals.

This is our third stay and we love it. The house is so beautiful and the beds are amazingly comfortable. It’s located in a peaceful area but close to everything. The hosts are great and we can’t say enough good things. We will continue to stay here every year.

Perfect spring getaway
The Little Pelican was perfect for our Spring Break getaway. The hosts went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed. When we arrived, we were greeted with a personalized welcome sign and some cookies. They also left us cold water and drinks in the fridge, which were perfect after a long day of driving. The house was very clean and the laundry room had plenty of cleaning supplies in case you like your house "Monica clean" (Friends reference) or you make a mess. The kitchen was fully stocked. We found anything and everything that we needed. The bathrooms had plenty of towels and toilet paper. The beds were so comfy! It's located a mile away from the Anthony Chapel and the Garvan Gardens and it's not too far from the Hot Springs National Park and Bathhouse Row. Everything was close enough that we didn't feel like we had to drive too long to get to places. Although the house is located close to a busy street, it was very quiet, especially at night. We enjoyed staying at the Little Pelican, we want to thank the host for being so kind and making us feel welcomed, and we want to recommend this house to anyone visiting Hot Springs.

Incredible experience
From the moment you walk in the door you are surrounded by welcomes of all kinds. Even better than online, you enjoy two complete master suites, GREAT finishes, and conveniently set up kitchen and eating area. Everything is extremely clean and well maintained. We are already planning a trip back to Hot Springs in a next month and this will be our place every time. Thank you for the hospitality.

Beautiful, immaculately clean home
The home was beautiful, immaculately clean, spacious, and full of thoughtful amenities. It was one of the cleanest homes I have ever rented. The host and hostess did a wonderful job decorating and putting thoughtful touches into the property. The beds were very comfortable and the towel warmer was so nice. There was a sweet welcome sign and cookies on the counter when we arrived. I would definitely stay here again!

Little Pelican
The outside looks nondescript but when we walked inside it was beautiful. Two bedrooms with king sized beds in both and bathrooms in both. The owners left cookies and cold soda. We ate at two of the restaurants recommended and both were good. There was a sign welcoming me when I got inside. Owners were responsive. Clean up was a breeze, take trash to cans on porch and start washer with towels and washcloths. Definitely one of the top rentals I've ever stayed in.

Just Fantastic!
We couldn't have been happier with our stay. The property is clean, and the pictures don't do it justice. We've never stayed anywhere that provided all of the amenities that you need. No trip to the store to buy toilet paper, paper towels, soap, etc. Everything you thought you would have to go buy was there for us. The Littles have a great place here and are great hosts. The location is close enough to attractions, stores, etc. to be very convenient, but just far enough out to be peaceful. Peaceful enough that a doe and her fawn visited with us several times through the week, If you are on the fence about renting this place, pull the trigger. You won't regret it! Thank you for a wonderful place to stay on our vacation!

Exceeded our expectations!!!
This is the first time we used VRBO and it will not be the last. The Littles are friendly and very accommodating. The Little Pelican became our home away from home and we felt very comfortable there. We didn’t want to leave!! When we walked thru the door, we were greeted by a personalized sign, welcoming us to their home. My kids were also excited to see the fresh cookies waiting for them on the kitchen counter. The house was spacious and beautifully decorated. The neighborhood is very quiet and we enjoyed watching the wildlife coming out of the nearby woods. We would definitely stay here again when we return to Hot Springs.

Perfect weekend getaway
The Littles have obviously taken much time in preparing a home away from home for their guests. Everything is thought out with extra special touches, like cookies, drinks in the fridge, and even a visit to say hello. We loved them stopping by to check on us. It's true, someone else said that it's even more beautiful in person than in the pictures. So clean! Perfect location for all the attractions and restaurants we wanted to visit. We are saving this Vrbo and hope to use it again in the future. We already sent video tours to several friends.
