About this property

It's called "The VIEW" for a reason: lake views from every room in the house via oversized windows looking out onto the large wrap around deck. A natural rock patio with fire pit surrounded by koi ponds is a tranquil place to gaze up at the stars and down at the moon's reflection off of the lake. Easy lake access by means of cut stone steps with handrail for a 2 minute walk to the boat dock with swim deck, kayaks, paddle boards and pontoon boat. This 3,200 sq ft house with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths can comfortably sleep up to 15 people. It was built from the beginning as a lake house retreat for the owner's extended family to spend precious time together several times per year. Lots of water activities, including complimentary kayaks, canoes, & paddle boards. The 2021 18' pontoon boat can be rented for half or full day at a rate lower than the local marina.

Great Location with Awesome Views

Very roomy and comfortable home. Loved watching the birds and squirrels at the feeder every morning. The water toys and the convenience of renting the pontoon boat at the private dock were a plus for us. Getting down to the dock is a bit of a hike but worth it!

Perfect retreat

The view, the land, and the home were more beautiful than the photos on the site could capture. Our group enjoyed the spaciousness of the home and proximity to the water. We would love to return and highly recommend it.

Amazing View

Very nice property, as advertised. We loved the view and the deck. The birds & bird feeders were quite entertaining. The open space main floor was perfect for our family gathering of three generations. Yes, the stairs to the lakefront are a definite challenge for older adults. I gave communication a lesser rating because of some glitch in the interface between vrbo and apple products. This is not a reflection on the owner but something to be aware of. Ask about massages. The owner arranged for a massage therapist to visit us at the house. Heaven!

About the host

Hosted by Kevin Smith

Having honeymooned in Eureka Springs some 30+ years ago, I always thought it would be fun to own some type of resort. After spending 30 years in the corporate world and my wife 30 years in education, we made that dream come true. We sold everything and moved not just to Eureka, but to the shores of beautiful Beaver Lake 20 minutes away. We purchased Beaver Lake Cottages in it's 25th year of operation. When we had the opportunity to buy the lake house next door from Shirley & Wendell, we jumped on it. We think you'll love it as mush as we do. Last year, my son, his wife and their 5 year old moved here as well to help run things. So it's a family business, but really more like a working retirement. Fun work!

Why they chose this property

The VIEW! as we named it, was never built to live in, although one could. Rather it was designed as a vacation lake house, perfect for accommodating large families. No formal dining room & living room. Just an open format with lots of large windows and a wrap around deck.

What makes this property unique

The property has a natural rock outcrop that overlooks the lake. Running water over the years has etched channels & crevices that are now koi ponds, complete with small waterfalls, water lilies and a symphony of frogs singing to potential mates after sunset. We use the setting for casual conversation around a fire pit, while admiring the stars and the moon reflecting off the water's surface. There are also cut stone steps with handrails for an easy, 2 minute walk to the boat dock with swim deck, kayaks, paddle boards, fishing poles and pontoon boat.
