STRICTLY A FISHING LAKE-NO SWIMMING

https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/21-Open-View-Rd-Houston-AR-72070/90896880_zpid/

Everyone has a favorite place, whether it be a building, a place outside, or even just being with friends. These places all hold something special to the people that inhabit them, they are places for fun, for relaxation, for just hanging out, and sometimes, even for work. It’s a place where memories are made, friendships are strengthened, and relationships are formed. Nothing but good seems to come from them. Sure there are places we all like to be, but this is beyond that. This is a favorite place, a place like no other, and ours just so happens to be Open View Lake House on Harris Break Lake.

The whole experience starts with the porch, where you will want to spend most of your time, as it provides a beautiful uninterrupted view of the lake and is the perfect place to sit down and strum a chord or two on the guitar with the family all siting around, watch the fish jump in the lake or just enjoy a beautiful sunset.

This house has been newly renovated to ensure you have all the comforts of home. When you walk in you enter the kitchen which is set back from the living and Bistro area and has clear views through the living room of the lake. It has new countertops, stainless steel sink and fully equipped with Stainless steel appliances that include a five burner gas stove, dishwasher, microwave, and side-by-side refrigerator with water and ice dispenser. For your convenience there is also a garbage disposal and large pantry. You will immediately notice the views through the living room of the lake. The open concept in the living room with lakeside windows, dining area and kitchen and an additional Bistro area flow together perfectly and allow you to view the lake virtually uninterrupted. . The décor is rustic yet has a touch of class with many antiques and vintage items. You can't help but explore all the little extras that have been put into the house.

Just off the dining area and kitchen you will find three cozy bedrooms. Each bedroom is uniquely decorated with individual themes and has a comfortable full size bed. There is a Deer hunting room decorated with deer hunting in mind, Fishing room complete with a small vintage motor and many fishing tackle items and there is also a Duck hunting room for the avid duck hunter. There are two completely renovated and modern bathrooms. Each one has a walk in shower with glass doors, elongated toilet and vanity with storage.

Outside you will notice a patio with a nice fire-pit and additional sitting areas and an eighty foot boat dock with electric hookups for recharging your boat battery. Great fishing directly off the dock.

The house is located on Harris Break Lake and just minutes from Harris Break Wildlife Management area which encompasses 2788 acres including a 1,200 acre lake and a 800 acre green tree reservoir. This is where you can hunt for Deer, Bear, Crow, Quail, Dove, Rabbit, squirrel, Turkey, Duck, Geese and other furbearers.

Also nearby Lake Sylvia Recreational Area, Fourche Lafave River, Petit Jean Mountain, Ouachita National Forest, 5 miles to Perryville and only 45 minutes to Little Rock

Sisters’ Trip

My sisters met me there and we had a wonderful, relaxing time. The place was clean, neat and peaceful. We loved sitting at the fire pit at night drinking hot chocolate and making s’mores. The house was close enough to Petit Jean Mountain that we were able to go there a couple of days to hike. We will definitely keep this place in mind for future vacations.

Eclipse week

Another relaxing stay. This time we were able to view the eclipse during our trip and it was perfect. I appreciate that there were no price changes as so many businesses used the opportunity to inflate prices. Thanks for sharing your lake home and the integrity in your business practices. We look forward to our next visit.

Week at the Lake

This property is situated on Harris Lake and it is beautiful. We did not catch a lot of fish at the first of the week but made up for it the last couple of days. We disconnected from technology and played board games and cards. Beautiful place. I hope to visit again.

So peaceful!!

We were so amazed with how comfy and cozy the little cabin is on Harris Brake Lake. We had an amazing time with family and everything was furnished so all we had to bring was food. We cannot wait to come back!! Just make sure you bring a fan if you need a fan ;) Other than that we loved being right on the water with nothing but peacefulness all around!

Another relaxing getaway

This is our third time here and we have already booked next year. Bonnie was very helpful and checked on us knowing there were storms in the area the day we came in as well as forecasted while there. Anita promptly replied when we had a slight issue. Our stay was super relaxing. This is a wonderful area for hiking and a quiet, comfortable home. Thanks again for sharing your place with us.

A lovely lake cabin stay with friends! Our purpose was to visit Moss Mountain Farm, which I would encourage everyone to visit. Pallensmith.com The cabin is just as described. My husband and our couple friend enjoyed the comfort of the lake house. Clean and comfortable. We relaxed, played cards, fished from the pier!! Beautiful view

Peace and quite

We set out for peace and quite as we had been dealing with 2 family deaths. This stay achieved our goal of peace and quite. We was very relaxed and enjoyed our stay. The fishing was hard to navigate from the dock, but that is not the property owners fault. Time of year and the incoming weather had more play in that. The owners had wood for the fire pit which was great due to the fire ban. It was cool at night time and the fire pit made for a great addition to the relaxation. Overall this was a great place to stay!
