Great stay in great location
We loved this property for our family of 5. The new backyard deck is awesome and it being fully screened in is a major plus. It’s a good location for going to either Lake Ouachita or Hamilton and not far from Hot Springs itself. Recommend!

So relaxing!
We really enjoyed our stay at this house. Plenty of room and nearly every detail or need is already thoughtfully provided. Adults loved the porches, kids loved the vintage video game, and we all loved the swimming and fishing dock. A little dark in the kitchen and living areas for cooking and reading but it didn’t stop us from having a wonderful, relaxing weekend. Location is a little farther out but this proved to be a plus as we didn’t want to leave and go back and forth to Hot Springs a lot anyway - we came to chill and this house was perfect!

Nice place to visit Hot Springs
Nice comfortable home. Nicely decorated and great views of the water. We appreciated how well the house was stocked with the basic necessities. It was very comfortable and well suited for the whole family to rest and have fun. We all had fun playing the arcade game. The host was very responsive to all of our questions. The only drawbacks are it’s 30 minutes from Hot Springs, and not a great swimming spot.

Great lake house!
Great property! Very clean. Tons of small decor details throughout that make it cozy. Comfortable seating. Response time was very prompt from owner. Very flexible with early check in and late check out bc there weren't any reservations bumped up to ours. Looks just as expected from the video in the listing. Tons of things in the kitchen to accommodate cooking. Some yard games are there for use. Cornhole, horseshoes, a hammock. Nice grill. Property is a little far out in a more rural/off the beaten path area. No concern for safety. We just planned all of our "in-town" activities on one day, and stayed and enjoyed the lake and house on the other days. Be careful for wildlife/deers if traveling to or from the home at night. We had quite a few that crossed in front if our vehicles. Overall great property and owner was a great host!

Great weekend!
We stayed here for an extended weekend in November. The property is very nice and well stocked. The beds are super comfortable and we were well rested the entire time. Chad is likely the absolute best communicator of any place we've ever stayed! Chad answers any questions quickly so don't hesitate to ask. The Hot Springs area is quite beautiful. We went on two hikes and also hired a local photographer to take family photos. All in all, a great weekend!

Pleasant stay
Our daughter and SIL stayed with us for the weekend but we were here all week. This was a comfortable place for the 4 of us. The jack and Jill bath made it easy to find an unoccupied toilet. The kitchen is spacious and had all of the equipment we needed. We made s’mores on the fire pit and chilled by the lake and cooked steaks in the grill. We sat in the swinging chair in the sun room to watch boats passing on the main channel. We enjoyed hiking at Oachita State Park and went twice to Garvan Gardens-once to view the gardens and once to hike the nature preserve. Definitely worth going to any time if the year! Thanks for a lovely stay!
