Place is older but well maintained. Quiet neighborhood, incredible views. The host are the best I have ever dealt with on VRBO. Instant responses, the information pack they send is perfect. The things that bother you at a VRBO, the thermostat, the cable, the laundry or what's in the area all clearly sent before hand. No waiting till you get there to get the door code. Fantastic. Oh and the lake is spectacular, spent most of our time on the back porch. Book this place, you will not regret it. If you have a large group it is very spacious as well. Also check out requirements are simple and reasonable, take out the trash, throw on a load of towels, strip the beds and clean up after yourself like an adult. Also they don't list it but there is a nice weber charcoal grill outside,

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 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!

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!

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.

Great view but...

We had a great time at this house and made some sweet memories! But here are a few notes;When we first walked in, we were hit with a musty, old—maybe stale water—smell. Not awful, but definitely noticeable. It was also pretty warm inside when we arrived, so it took a while for the place to cool down and feel comfortable.The house is—50s-60s era—with creaky wood floors and vintage charm with the kitchen and living room connected by a central island that made it a great gathering space.It was clean overall, just dated in places. There were some little oddities—like no sponge or scrubber for dishes, and the TVs were pretty slow to load and use.The host also asked us to roll the trash bins to the road at checkout, which sounded easy until we realized “the main road” was about 100 yards up the road. (Sundays)One thing that gave us pause was the checkout list request to let them know if any comforters needed to be washed. Not sure what that meant exactly, but it made us wonder...The lake/dock are accessible from the property, but you’ll need to go down a hill via some old (1 wobbly) steps, so be careful, especially with kids.The kids loved the bunkbed room, and having a second living space. The view out back is peaceful and beautiful—definitely one of the best parts.Overall, this was one of the more affordable rentals we found, and we were happy with our time there there. There are a few quirks and things to be aware of, but nothing that ruined our trip.

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.
