Sweet tea is a way of life, y’all! And living in central Arkansas is the best choice for those that enjoy a slower pace and plenty of opportunities to get in touch with nature. Don't worry, in this Sherwood you don't have to be poor to be on Robin's good side.
With Sherwood being its own neighborhood, you don’t have to drive all over town to sniff out the best apartments, making finding a rental easy. As long as you have proof of income, you can probably find a place to live in a day. Most places rent on a first-come, first-served basis and all application fees and deposits must be paid before an application is accepted and processed. Both complexes and private landlords will run a credit check, the cost of which is incorporated into the application fee.
Finding Your House
House rentals are affordable and the cost of living is lower than the US average. Because of Sherwood’s size, you can check out every eligible apartment in town in a day. You can rent a nice duplex for as little as $650 a month. This is the perfect place to move to if you’re ready to ditch the roommate life and start living out on your own. You’re in luck if you have pets as many property rentals in Sherwood have pet friendly apartments.
Keep in mind, as a relatively new ‘burb, Sherwood is somewhat lacking in unique and historical digs. You’re going to come across more premier apartment complexes than private rentals. If you’re looking for a place to live with that old Southern grace, you’ll have to spend a little more time pounding the pavement. Sherwood rentals have plenty of charm and provide plenty of bang for your buck.
A Host of Options
The neighborhood is home to some Arkansas gems. Love to golf? Make sure you spend a day on The Greens at North Hills golf course, a public course which was redesigned in the 1970s by famed golf course architect Robert Trent Jones Sr. Gadwall’s Grill, a down-home, American-style eatery is worth the calories. They have everything from delicious old-fashioned burgers to a can’t-miss white chili made with chicken, beans and topped off with Monterey Jack cheese. If cooking at home is more your speed, you’ll be pleased to find that Sherwood is home to BJ’s Plants and Produce, where you can shop for the freshest local produce or buy some seedlings for your own container garden.
Seasonal Activities
Sherwood’s Holiday Trail of Lights is a drive-thru Christmas lights display located in Sherwood Forest. The free lights show is over a mile long, opens the Monday after Thanksgiving and closes on December 30th. Sherwood Fest, the biggest event of the year, is a festival that is free to the public and combines crafts, kids' activities, live music and fireworks.
Walking: Best Left for Trails
It’s not likely that you’ll get very far without a car. You’ll need a vehicle to get to the grocery store or work. On the bright side, the highway access is easy so don’t expect your morning commute to take all day. With plenty of outdoor recreation, great shopping and annual festivals, you won’t ever be bored. And with Dallas and Memphis less than a gas tank away, you’ll never feel too far from the action. So get ready to kick back, relax and enjoy your southern adventure.
