The Cottage Courts Historic District encompasses a historic travelers' accommodation at 609 Park Avenue in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Built about 1950, it was one of the first motel-type tourist accommodations to be built in the city. Unlike earlier tourist courts, which typically had idiosyncratic vernacular architecture, Cottage Courts consists of two ranch-style single-story buildings, one of which houses twelve guest rooms, and the other three plus the operator's apartment and office.[2]

The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.[1]
