So much family fun!

My family wanted to stay close to Hot Springs, but far enough out that we could have quiet, secluded time too! This house was perfect. It was so clean, it had a baby gate at the stairs (big plus for us!!), and really was just the perfect spot to get away and relax.

Nice property

We had a large group of moms and their daughters for a lake weekend. The house was a good size and everyone was comfortable. Beautiful lake views (no direct access) and a nice fire pit on a quiet cul de sac. Our only complaint was the refrigerator in the kitchen was on the small side, and did not have an ice maker, although there was a second smaller one downstairs as well. Overall a nice house and we would stay there again.

We had family Thanksgiving here. Every bed was comfortable and nice sheets and pillows. Big screen tv, wifi, comfortable leather furniture, and everything we needed in the kitchen. And the deck and views were worth it all. Beautiful sunsets!!

Perfect getaway

This property had it all, the character and charm of this home was all we had hoped for. The setting of being lakefront property was beyond beautiful. From the youngest in our group (2 year old, to the oldest 85 year old), to the oldest our stay was enjoyed by all. We will definitely want to stay here again. Rachael and Scott were very helpful with any questions we had.

Family getaway

This house worked great for us. The bar and pool table downstairs was a plus. You do have about a 20 minute drive to grocery stores or restraunts but its not bad at all. Host left us a s’more basket which we did at the fire pit and loved that special touch. Quiet neighborhood overlooking the water. We loved the house.

Great property and location is awesome. However, Kitchen is crowded and could have been cleaned better. .Fridge was dirty inside. Oven is too small for big meals. Only one decent size pot for cooking. Hot water ran out after just two showers. For a property that can host 16 people the lack of hot water was disappointing. Had to clean outdoor grill before using as it was filthy. If these issues get addressed I could definitely see renting again in the future.

Family Christmas

Property was very clean and nice. Kitchen is equipped well enough. Owners left us some s'mores ingredients to make by the fire and some hot cocoa. Overall awesome house for our 3 families to get together for Christmas. Will rent again and would recommend to anyone. Trail to lake is pretty steep.

Gangsters Retreat

This house is like a warm hug. There are some things that could be updated, like bathroom faucets and shower heads, but that's just nit picking. It feels like you're at grandmas house. It has that kind of smell and feel to it. Very secluded and beautiful.

Hot Spring Trip

Everything was good, the house was exactly what we need it. We had so much fun. My only complaint is that the water in the shower doesn’t have any pressure and is really hard to get to be warm, is either cold or steamy. Other than that everything was fine.

Beautiful location, most mattresses not comfortable

Very spacious home with great views of the lake. Kitchen was well equipped. The listing was a little confusing - in one place it said the bunk room beds were twin sized and in another place said they were full size. Everything was as expected except the beds. The MBR bed was comfortable but all the other mattresses were really hard and need to be replaced or at least have thick memory foam toppers. Downstairs shower water pressure was very low. Nice place but needs a little help.
