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.

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.

Hot Springs R&R

We're familiar with Hot Springs Bathhouse Row, but wanted a more homey week long stay. Rural Beauty was perfect. We enjoy cooking fancy new recipes, and making treats. The kitchen was absolutely perfect for everything we did. Living room and bedrooms were very comfortable also. The hot tub was a big plus. We will definitely return!

Home Away From Home

We stayed 27 days while our home was being remodeled, would have stayed longer if property was available. Very convenient, all amenities we needed, beautiful grounds and the yard and hot tub were a bonus! The listing says 1 bathroom but there are 2 bathrooms! Met several neighbors while walking dog, such a great location …highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Chris Hough

Host profile image
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.
