Blackwell-Paisley Cabin
historic house in Arkansas, United States

The Blackwell-Paisley Cabin is a historic summer cabin on Suits-Us Drive in Bella Vista, Arkansas. It is a 1+1⁄2-storey wood-frame structure, facing west, with a front gable roof. A carport is attached to the south facade of the main cabin, and projects forward of it, with its own gable roof. The rear of the carport is screened to provide a sitting area. Bedrooms on two levels are sheltered only by screens on three sides. The cabin was built in 1924 by Roy Cunningham, who built many summer retreat cabins in Bella Vista. This cabin is one of the few surviving and relatively unaltered cabins in the area from the period.
The cabin was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.

Why this record matters
The phrase “historic house in Arkansas, United States” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 1, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q19460557. Authority coordinates are 36.430, -94.233. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1924 and 1988.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
