The location was perfect; close to everything we wanted to see and do, but private enough to enjoy some peace and quiet. The home is beautiful and had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. Hope to visit again!
My husband absolutely loved staying here! The house was comfortable and cozy and the outdoor space was fantastic. He and his cousins were delighted with the game selection! The house was perfectly located with the ease to get to town but also on the outskirts enough that it was quiet and private. Looking forward to making a return trip and hopefully staying here again. Thank you for offering such a great home away from home.
Such a relaxing, beautiful home in a quiet but convenient location. The backyard was a perfect space for our dog. We enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub after a busy day of sightseeing. The kids really enjoyed the selection of books & board games. We hope to stay here again if we return to Hot Springs.
Beautiful home in a beautiful quiet setting. The home was very comfortable with everything you could need for your stay; kitchen, laundry, bath etc. Extremely well organized and very very clean. It was very easy to find and only 10 to 15 minutes from everything in Hot Springs! Chris the property manager was so accommodating and friendly! We could not have asked for a better home base for our week long stay. The home is very affordable too. We didnt bring our dogs this time but this home is very dog friendly with a park sized fenced-in yard. One of the best VRBOs we've stayed at. Homes like this are exactly why we only travel using VRBO. Thank you to Chris and Elizabeth for having this home as an option in Hot Springs.
We've traveled extensively with our pups. The backyard here was by far the best for them to hang out. We also loved the neighborhood's peaceful vibes while still being within 10 minutes of everywhere (hiking, hot springs, etc.)!

Our stay was perfect! The fenced back yard for our dogs was an absolute godsend. Board game selection was top notch and there was something for everybody. Hot tub was clean and relaxing! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to he back!
This property was great for both pets and humans. The back yard was excellent and safe for your pets. The home was clean, well appointed and so welcoming and comfortable. We loved it so much we added an additional day. You are close to town, Lake Catherine State Park and Garvan Woodland Gardens. This is the perfect place to stay.
I enjoyed the stay. This house has a big yard great patio. Located close to so many things to do including the downtown area. Looking forward to coming back.
Beautiful home in a beautiful private setting with a large yard.House very well equipped with nice furnishingsSpacious for a family of 6 and 2 small dogs.Quick responses from owner and easy check in and check out process.We plan to return next year for our annual family trip.
We stayed for 4 nights for a family trip to hot springs. The house was very clean and private. The kids enjoyed using the hot tub every evening after a day of sightseeing.
We had a great stay at this location. The area was quiet with very little traffic. The house is in a great location with Hot Springs, the garden, off road Jeep park, amusement park all in a short drive. The house it self was in great condition everything we needed in the kitchen, laundry room, bathrooms, and bed rooms. The cleanliness of the house was immaculate.The back yard was large and has a small loop fence around it for small dogs, our small Chihuahua loved the freedom.This would be an easy 5 star but I’m a big guy at 6,3 and 225, and the showers were a little small for me and the hot tube had been chlorine shocked and was a little strong. But a great place to stay none the less. I would definitely recommend is to anyone.
Fantastic property with a wonderful backyard in a quiet neighborhood. Thank you for offering the board game library and multiple TV streaming options. We really enjoyed our stay.

About the host
Hosted by Chris Hough
Leia is a city dog who loves the rural beauty of Hot Springs. She enjoys the large yard, with various park-like nooks, and the easy access to nature that her Hillside Haven provides. Her favorites are Garvan Woodland Gardens, the Hot Springs Greenway walking and biking trails, and the Promenade in downtown Hot Springs. Sometimes she stays at home while her human companions enjoy the famous Hot Springs National Park thermal mineral water at Buckstaff Bathhouse downtown, visit Oaklawn racetrack, or enjoy the other local amenities.
Why they chose this property
Leia's Hillside Haven offers rural beauty. Sitting on over 1 acre, the home is private and hosts regular visitors from the frog, rabbit and bird families (with deer visitors at times outside the fenced yard). The yard is serene and offers multiple venues for relaxing – in the hot tub, on the deck, under the covered patio awning, or in any one of the yard's featured areas of rest and respite.
What makes this property unique
Despite its rural relaxing venue, Leia’s Hillside Haven is close to US-270 and a mere 10 minutes from Oaklawn racetrack and downtown Hot Springs, with many other amenities in close range.
