You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Hamilton Happy Place (million dollar view) - Lake Retreat

Beautiful Lake Hamilton Waterfront home situated on almost 1 acre of landscaped yard. 3 bedroom, 2 bathrooms (sleeps 12). Double boat dock with lifts available. Very conveniently located off Airport Road, near groceries, restaurants, fast food, donuts, liquor stores and more.

We are excited to share our "Happy Place" with you! The moment you drive up, the lake view will be waiting! You can enjoy the water even as you unpack! When you walk in, be prepared... the view will take your breath away! It's all windows and ALL LAKE VIEW from almost every room in the house! So, no matter what the Arkansas weather brings or how your mood shifts, you will get to enjoy the water! The home is situated on almost an acre of beautifully landscaped property! It's perfectly positioned for privacy and easy living. Spend your days and nights with your family and friends on one of 2 outdoor patios (upstairs and down), both with FULL gorgeous views of the lake. Our home has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.

Upstairs, you will enjoy the open floor plan, kitchen and living space with plenty of seating, conversation areas and a large dining table.There are 2 outdoor living spaces (both upstairs and down) to enjoy. The master is off the main living area with a king bed and attached bathroom with large jacuzzi tub, shower, double vanities and walk-in closet. The patio is right off the back of the house for maximum lake view and fluid indoor/outdoor living! The outdoor area has a sofa, chairs, large dining table and propane barbecue for your all day relaxing.

Downstairs, you will find 2 bedrooms, bathroom, utility room, separate living area and another outdoor porch. The second bedroom also has a king bed and is attached to a bathroom. We have a bunk room downstairs with a set of Full and Twin bunkbeds. Lastly there is a memory foam sleeper sofa for more sleeping options. All beds are new and top quality memory foam, including bunks! Enjoy the lower deck area with a large swing and table and chairs!

Our focus was comfort! We wanted light and airy aesthetics, comfy furniture, great beds (memory foam mattresses), quality linens, a stocked kitchen and place that felt like home when we walked in. We hope you feel like we’ve accomplished just that during your stay!

We currently have 2 boat slips with lifts available in our boat dock. There is a swimming ladder off the back end of the dock and it's perfect for swimming to cool off! And the yard has endless opportunities for running around and laying out!

A few more things to note:
We have Wi-Fi through out the house and SMART TV’s with Roku in both Living areas (upstairs and down) and both King rooms.
We have ample parking for a group.
We are 8 miles from Oaklawn Casino.

Please note this house is most suitable for a large family or 2 families with kids. While the beds sleep 12, 6 adults and the rest children will likely be most comfortable fit from our experience.

Amazing host/view

The pictures don’t do it justice..the view from everywhere is amazing…and even though it is located in a neighborhood a neighbors across the lake or so far away and the way the lot of position it’s like you’re all by yourself, absolute peace and quiet. The host was perfect from start to finish from booking through the stay. She didn’t miss a beat. We will definitely stay there when we go back to Hot Springs area.

“Happy Place” confirmed

A overall amazing place, even it rained everyday when we stayed. Kids were able to fish on the deck of the boat house rain or shine. It is a lake front house but we also felt like in the forest. A lot of very tall trees around the house and birds were singing all day long. Very relaxing and peaceful place. And inside is very tastefully decorated, very clean and convenience.

Loved this property. Great if you have a boat you need to dock or there was a rental available on property too with plenty of water sport options as well. Kitchen was well stocked, there were even lots of kids toys. Clean, beautiful and easy. Great location. Loved everything about it.

Amazing Gem in Hot Springs

The Lake views took our breath away from the moment we entered, and every time we moved to a different room. We loved sitting on the deck and watching the lake activities. Courtney made this vacation perfect with her little touches including the welcome basket, board games, access to lake toys, etc. We can't thank her enough for her hospitality. The home was very stylish and very clean. We highly recommend this home, and will be sure to come back!

A Grand Retreat!

We stay at a lot of properties. This one is a gem. Location- It’s about 11 minutes from a grocery store and about 20 minutes from the heavy tourist areas which is my preference. Pizza & food delivery available. It’s a very quiet and peaceful location! Kitchen ready! We made a meal and were about to make coffee in the mornings. Loved the elegant and modern decor. Beds are superb- very comfy. Family friendly home with toys and games for kiddos and most importantly very clean! Beautiful views, even better in person!

Absolutely beautiful view of the lake. We arrived a little early and the owner was happy to let us in. Nice property but really needs a deep clean. The bath tub in the downstairs bath is clogged up. So standing in water while in the shower not good. Main floor bath tub was not cleaned. We did not have A/C the first night. So not a great experience. Things happen, corrected the next day. Then no ice. The owner dumped the ice maker and left us with no ice the first night. We filled muffin pans to make ice and made do. Again, corrected once the ice maker caught up the next day. For the most part we enjoyed our stay. But cleanliness is our number one complaint. Tubs were not clean. We realized the kitchen floor was not clean when we spilled water and used paper towels to clean it up and the paper towels were dirty. Again, great property just needs a deep clean!

A Perfect Lake House Vacation

Not a single complaint. This house had it all. No detail was missed by the owners of this property. The kitchen was fully stocked with anything and everything. All rooms were beautifully decorated, very clean. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. Sitting areas were in all of the right places. During our stay we had 2 families, 6 young kids (fit perfectly in the bunk room). There were toys, games, a basket of books, and lots of grass space outdoors they enjoyed running and playing in. The house was in a perfect location on the lake. We jumped off the end of the dock and paddle boarded without any worry of boat traffic coming near. We used Walmart grocery pick up, which was about 5 minutes from the house. This house is convenient to everything in town, and a short boat ride to marinas and restaurants. We hope to be back next year!
