Terrific stay
The house was perfect for three friends to explore the area and hang out together. Loved the front porch. It was convenient to a trail head for hiking and felt very safe. The house was very clean and the hosts easy to communicate with. This was our first trip to Hot Springs and I would definitely stay here again on a return trip.

Best Rental Experience Ever
This home was absolutely perfect! We were able to bring all three of our dogs which is so rare. They left treats for the pups and had every single thing you might need. It truly felt like we were staying in a family members home. The sun room was our favorite part! Each morning my pups would sun while I read my book and had my coffee. Their plants are also pet friendly and were just beautiful. The owners were very friendly, communicative, and truly thought of everything. They had a binder full of activities and local happenings. I wish we could have stayed there longer as it was the perfect home base when visiting Hot Springs. I cannot recommend this home enough and I absolutely see why it’s rated a 10/10!

Family friendly close to downtown
Great experience! Easy check-in. If you forgot it, they probably have it. We appreciated the signs around the house giving instructions on how to use stuff. Definitely needed it with the stove! Dog friendly is an understatement. They had dog bowls, leashes, toys, dog towels biscuits, even a pooper scooper! But the pièce de résistance was the Happy Birthday message and treats they left my daughter!!! So kind! So thoughtful! We were all so tickled by that gesture! Thank you so much for such a memorable stay!

Great Spot! Close to Town *and* Dog-Friendly!
Cute little spot close and convenient to town and food spots. The house is dog-friendly as well, with the owners providing cleaning towels, and things to keep them comfortable and taken care of.
The house itself is super cute, the rear private driveway and gate entrance are nice for late night returns to the unit.
Entering, there were fresh cookies and a big jug of the local spring water, and a welcome guide that helped acclimate us to the town and what awesome spots awaited us.
The beds were comfy and the bathrooms clean and functional. A nice shower in one, with a great soaking tub in another.
The kitchen was great for my cooking of meals. I even went to the local butcher to buy some cuts of meat for the grill outside. Utensils and detailed instructions on using the grill lead to a successful cook. Dishwasher was easy to use as well.
The town around the unit is welcoming and had good food options along with grocery stores and other things for the kiddos to do in the event it rains for the majority of your stay like for us (ha ha). The neighborhood around the unit too, was good for dog walking and short adventures.
10/10, would stay here again. Thank you for having us!

short stay for family vacation
We stayed there for two nights with 4 adults and 2 dogs. House was prepared and set up nicely for us and very welcoming to our 2 dogs (dog dishes, towels, treats, and couch covers). Whole house was very clean, kitchen was well stocked - even had welcome cookie box and hot spring water! Location was nice, very quiet neighborhood away from the noise of downtown but close enough that we could just drive back to rest in afternoon if we wanted. Communication from the owner was very prompt and helpful. Definitely will stay here again if we are in the area.

In all of my experiences with booking through VRBO, this was simply THE BEST!!! Such a wonderful house, just a PERFECT bungalow with every amenity you need. Our dogs had an absolute blast hiking on the trails and exploring the town. My partner had never been to Hot Springs before, and the attention the detail at The Harrell House is second to none!!theres an entire bible of attractions and places to go, as well as ANOTHER bible of events broken down BY THE DAY!!! We are already planning our next trip with some friends, and I will NEVER stay anywhere else in Hot Springs!! The pictures don’t do this wonderful house justice. Book it yesterday!!!

Great stay in Hot Springs
Wife and I really liked the place. It's nice and quiet and the private drive is really nice. The place was clean and accepted dogs. I had some communication with the owner and everything was pleasant and perfect. We would definitely look at staying here again when we come to hot springs. The kids liked the middle bed and the way the house was laid out as well. Dogs liked the fenced in back-yard and the laundry / mud room was really convenient. Really, we enjoyed the place and don't have any complaints.
