Perfect Retreat

Very pleasant stay; our host had everything ready and lined out ahead of time. Property was as described, clean and perfect for our weekend getaway! It's close to everything in Hot Springs, but far enough away as well, situated on the lake with a nice view and relaxing atmosphere.

Great view

The house had a great view over the lake. It was super clean and cozy and had everything we needed. We were able to park several cars and a truck and trailer in the driveway. It was a little tricky to find the driveway, but the owner sent very detailed instructions and we found it right away!

What a great find! We would certainly stay here again. Great location and great home. The family room was large enough for 12 or more. The home was clean and more than met the needs for our family reunion weekend. There is plenty of parking!

nice long weekend getaway with family

We had a good stay at this home. Any issues we had were quickly resolved by the owner. The inside of the home is nicer than the outside of it. The outside wasn’t bad, just dated and could use a little TLC. The location was convenient and being on the lake was great!

Great place to relax and enjoy the lake.

The house had ample space for two adults and 5 children. The bedrooms were spacious and the kids loved the bunkroom. The kitchen and living area were open with beautiful views of the lake. . The house was nicely decorated and met all our expectations! We loved the back porch and the wonderful deck off the lake! Can't wait to come back!

Clean and comfortable

We enjoyed our girls getaway here with lake access and a very spacious kitchen! We brought our own pool floats and had a lot of fun down on the water. The amenities were a little sparse compared to other VRBOs we've stayed at (e.g. no soaps in the showers), but the beds and furniture were comfortable and inviting. Rachel was kind and helpful and the lake view was lovely! We are pleased with our stay.

Want to come back in the warmth and enjoy the lake!

Owners were very communicative and helpful before and during our stay. We extended our stay by an extra night because we were having so much fun. The weather was cold and windy but we were still able to enjoy the porch some (thanks for having blankets to cuddle under) and the kids tried fishing a bit. We enjoyed diamond and crystal mining, both about an hour away, and many fun things in Hot Springs. The house was perfect for our family with three kids plus my parents. The two living areas allowed us to spread out and be together as we wished. Definitely recommend staying here!

Fun Family Getaway

We had a wonderful time over spring break. Kids enjoyed fishing and exploring the area around the house. We enjoyed grilling out and taking in all the beauty around us. We had 8 people in our party (4 adults and 4 kids). We had space for everyone and never felt like we were on top of each other. Everything we needed for cooking was readily available. The area is peaceful and beautiful, which made for nice family walks. Lake Hamilton and Hot Springs has always been a favorite of ours, and the house made it even more special. Thanks for a trip full of wonderful memories.

Not for small children & senior adults

Comfortable beds with nice linens, well-stocked kitchen, nice view & sunsets. However, there’s a long slope down to the water with 76 stairs and another 30 feet of stepping stones. The slope near the lake has a lot of broken brick that is a terrible hazard for children. There is no beach area and deep water off the very small dock. The house is old with lots of cracks in the walls, no bathroom vents and musty smells. AC vents, ceiling fans were very dirty and the stovetop needs a good cleaning. There were dead bugs stuck to a greasy light above the stove. Owner needs a better cleaning service.

Great family get away and beautiful dock for our boat

We spent 5 nights in July at this property with extended family and it did not disappoint. It is an older home but has been updated inside and is on a beautiful piece of property with a nice covered boat dock. Additionally, the home was extremely clean. Both bathrooms, kitchen, frig etc...were immaculate. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots, and utensils. There is also a charcoal grill on the back patio. It is an older grill but we used it 4 of the nights we were there with no problem. The furniture was very nice and well kept, the mattresses comfortable, and there were board games, cards, and many DVD's to watch. We brought our two pups and they loved sitting on the back patio watching the boats go by. It has a railing all the way around with a gate so I could contain them if I needed to. The covered boat dock was perfect for our 23' boat. We found the launch at the fish hatchery to be the closest and it was free to launch. The boardwalk and deck down by the dock was a huge bonus. There was ample room to sit and relax or fish. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a quiet getaway with family. We will definitely return in the future.

some good some not so good

It's a nice house and served it's purpose I guess. If you want to watch TV forget it unless you're a techiegeek!! Too bad if there's anything you want to watch or keep up with the news. So that was bad news. Too bad because they have2 really nice TV's The pictures you see of the lake are VERY deceptive...it's a long ways DOWN to the lake, and at least a 40 degrees bank, steps are treacherous. And much farther coming back up. If you are over 60 and even a little out of shape...forget it, kids OK. Access to the lake when you get down there? A ladder off the dock, steep and rocky other than that, water is very deep, if anyone can't swim ..stay away. The house is comfortable, well equipped with a nice view. 2 bathrooms and 10 people are a challenge, but you know that going in, one is accessed only thru the Master bedroom, which is at times [middle of the nite?] a little inconvenient. The 3rd bedroom is also pretty deceiving in the pictures, virtually no privacy, no door to close into the rest of the living area, and the outside entry [which is the main one] is directly into that bedroom. Don't think we'd rent it again, but if your real flexible it might be OK.

Perfect for Families

We loved our stay here! The view of the lake is expansive, and we loved having breakfast with water views. We enjoyed the yard, which is large and perfect for kids. Every night, we had dinner on the patio and then watched the sunset. The deck right on the water was great for hanging out, and you get the best sunset views there. You can also fish from the dock or just enjoy being near the lake. We stayed here with two families (four kids total), and we were comfortable. Highly recommend this place!

Why they chose this property

Located close to our main home, we loved the large yard, covered patio, and breathtaking lake views from both inside the house and down on the lower deck that this property has to offer.

What makes this property unique

The yard leading to the lake is mostly shaded by large trees and the covered patio is perfect for hot and sunny summer days. The deck is uncovered but gets both sun and shade depending on the time of day. There is a fenced in yard near the driveway perfect for kids to play while remaining contained. The floating boat dock is great for boating or fishing in the year-round water provided by the lake's main channel.
