Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rights in the United States have evolved in recent decades. However, LGBT Americans may still face some legal and many social challenges not experienced by non-LGBT residents, particularly in states with large conservative populations, such as in the Deep South; in rural areas; and in some Native American tribal nations.
U.S. federal law does not explicitly include protections against discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. In June 2020, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that sexual orientation and gender identity are included under “sex” as a prohibited ground of employment discrimination in the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Every Cottage is different, all queen beds and flat screen TV’s. There are several outdoor sitting areas with fire pits and swings for relaxing. A quiet gazebo for reading and deer watching.
Casual lodging offering cozy rooms & cottages, plus flower gardens & free weekend breakfast.
I have been recommending Sherwood court to all my friends and family! I can’t wait to go back and stay again!
The room was very beautifully decorated, the rooms clean and the customer service excellent. Roger and Debbie were very attentive to our needs.
The rates are very competitive for the area: I’d say an excellent bargain. They also have a trolley stop at their location, so you can leave your car behind and explore the narrow streets of downtown in comfort!
An extra bonus for my niece and I was the cat, Sherwood, who prowls the grounds looking out for the guests.
This visit we stayed in the log cabin, and it was fantastic. Built in 1930, the inside still shows the logs and with a cozy fireplace, vaulted ceiling with highly polished beams, and a heart shaped jacuzzi tub for two overlooking a beautiful little glen, it was just what we were looking for. It was relaxing, charming, clean and I’d stay there again in a heartbeat. The bed was comfortable with nice linens and the bathroom was well stocked with fluffy towels and warm robes.
The Innkeepers are a lovely couple who really enjoy what they’re doing and are attentive to the needs of their guests, both two and four-legged. Patrick and Stacey are charming people and their care is evident through all of the little touches; breakfast on weekends, decor, fire pits ready for an evening or a conversation.
We’re very much looking forward to our next visit. The hardest part will be choosing which cottage.

Firstly, it’s a nice historic hotel. It does not have a grand lobby. Our deluxe room -508 – had a nice sitting room with a fridge, microwave, & TV. There is a ceiling fan but no a/c in that room. The bedroom was an adequate size to allow a queen bed and 2 bedside tables. There is an a/c and a small closet. The bathroom was delux! Nicely remodeled with a beautiful shower and a separate tub. The vanity is small if you are traveling with your spouse and you have lots of toiletries.
The location is excellent right among all the little shops. Because it’s an ancient village, there is no parking nearby so 1) there is no real place to stop and unload and 2) you must Park in the provided lot about a half mile away, down a very steep hill. They provide shuttle service but of course you feel obligated to tip each ride. They charge a daily resort fee even tho during Covid there were no activities. Being there in the fall, the temps were nice but I would never want to be there in the heat of summer without Central a/c. You would burn up in the sitting room, the bathroom, and the hallways.
This is a nice place to stay for the historical experience. The Spa is great and we really enjoyed our massages. I loved the bathroom in our spa room, highly recommend booking one of those. Very quiet and relaxing experience! The bed was one of the most comfortable I have ever slept on in a hotel.
Room was a nice size, freshly painted, beautiful new modern wallpaper, clean carpet, nice furnishings, really comfortable bed, gutted and completely remodeled bathroom with a huge shower, nice table with complimentary ozark water, nice hotel guide with menus, nice sitting area with a lovely book on Eureka Springs, nice architectural features showcasing the old electrical wiring as a piece of art, awesome mirror in bathroom with dimming lights that when dimmed shows wood supports in the walls which is a beautiful display of art, new large Samsung LED television, furniture is high end with quiet shutting drawers like high end kitchens have with real granite countertops, mini fridge, a ton of outlets and USB chargers, we had a 3 bay window with a absolutely beautiful view of downtown very picturesque! The room has a new top of the line train air conditioner which is very quiet and works really well.
The lobby of the hotel is simple beautiful with tall ceilings and cedar beams with nice molding. The lobby has newly upholstered furniture, quaint fireplace, a cool time capsule, guest computer, and a nice little area with pictures and historical objects from the hotel. I honestly can’t say anything negative about this hotel. All we have to do is slip our robes on and walk right over to the spa for our couples massage. The lady at the desk was extremely friendly and helpful. The shuttle driver was also very polite.
